Peacock has renewed “Days of Our Lives” for two more seasons, the network announced Wednesday.
The renewal for the daytime drama series, which has brought in 61 Emmy Awards, including 2022’s Outstanding Writing for a Daytime Drama, will take the soap through its 60th season.
After the NBC mainstay moved to its new exclusive home at Peacock in 2022, “Days of Our Lives” has consistently made its way to become a top 10 title. Airing its 14,000th episode in 2020, the soap previously stood as NBC’s longest-running drama series until its shift to Peacock.

NBC’s iconic daytime soap “Days of Our Lives” might not have had a chance for survival if not for its move to Peacock, one of the show’s Emmy-winning directors, Scott McKinsey, told fans in a Facebook message Friday.
McKinsey took to social media to assure “Days of Our Lives” fans that, from what he knows, “there will be no perceptible change to the show as it moves from NBC to Peacock.”
“Iow,” he wrote, “the show has not been canceled, and/or ‘picked up’ by Peacock. This is a big difference from the sad demise of ABC’s [‘One Life to Live’] and [‘All My Children’]. All of your favorite characters will remain on the show for the foreseeable future. In fact, the prospect of ‘Days’ remaining in production for the long term just increased as a result of this move. Without Peacock, ‘Days’ might have been numbered on the Network.

Ben Affleck claimed the Directors Guild of America Award for Argo on Saturday in Hollywood’s latest thumb-in-the-eye to the small group of filmmakers in the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences who failed to nominate him for an Oscar.
“I worked really, really hard to become the best director I could be, by putting in as hours as I can, and banging my head against a wall, berating myself, lying to myself about whether it’s going to work,” Affleck told the crowd, never mentioning the snub. “Basically, I got to a...
