Why was Days of Our Lives Not On June 2nd 2022?

Soap opera fans have noticed that Days Of Our Lives has been missing from NBC’s daytime lineup. When will new episodes of the sudser air?

Why NBC took DOOL off schedule

Days of Our Lives fans hoping to tune in to the lives of Salem residents the last week of May and the first week of June were sadly disappointed. New episodes of the soap only aired on two out of five days.

The long-time daytime staple was pre-empted on Monday, May 30, and Thursday, June 2. Additionally, no new episode will air on Friday, June 3, either.

Why not?

The 30th was the Memorial Day holiday and NBC aired French Open matches instead, per Monsters & Critics.

Following new episodes on Tuesday and Wednesday, more tennis aired on Thursday. The network continues its French Open coverage on Friday, June 3.

When will new episodes of Days of Our Lives air?

The next new episode will air on Monday, June 6. DOOL fans can also expect pre-emptions later this summer for Wimbledon coverage.

On one of the new episodes that did air this week, Abby (Marci Miller) had a chat with Kayla (Mary Beth Evans) about having another baby. But is Chad (Billy Flynn) on board with the baby plans?

Tune in next week to see how it plays out.

More fan-favorites return to Beyond Salem spin-off

Next month, the next chapter in Beyond Salem will premiere. The Days of Our Lives spin-off airs exclusively on the Peacock streaming service.

The first chapter saw the return of DOOL alum Lisa Rinna as Billie Reed.

While Billie won’t make an appearance in the second chapter, someone close to her will. In a major casting coup, Beyond Salem nabbed both Peter Reckell (Bo) and Kristian Alfonso (Hope.)

Reckell took a step back from acting in 2018 and Bo died on-screen in Hope’s arms. Actress Kristian Alfonso famously quit DOOL in 2020 after a disagreement over her work schedule.

Deadline recently revealed more casting news for the second chapter. Eileen Davidson will return. In addition, legendary actress Loretta Devine (Adele Webber, Grey’s Anatomy) will join the spin-off.

Drake Hogestyn (John) and Deidre Hall (Marlena) will return for another season of Beyond Salem. Christopher Sean reprises his role as John’s son Paul.

Chapter two of the limited series will have 5 episodes. A new episode of Beyond Salem will drop daily on Peacock beginning Monday, July 11, and wrap up on Friday, July 15.

Peacock also carries episodes of Days of Our Lives. New episodes of the sudser are available to stream the next day after airing on NBC.

Hey, “Days Of Our Lives” fans. We, unfortunately, have some super bad news to run by you in this article. For some unknown reason, NBC is not going to air new episodes of your favorite soap opera Days Of Our Lives this Thursday and Friday afternoon, June 16 and 17, 2022.

That’s right,guys. Days Of Our Lives will just be totally MIA (Missing In Action) from NBC’s schedule on those two days. What’s really puzzling about this situation is that we really can’t find out what NBC will be airing instead of Days Of Our Lives on these two days.

Usually, we can look it up in the TV Guide listings, but all it’s telling us is that NBC will be airing some Local Programming and nothing specific. We do know that NBC is providing LIVE coverage for the 2022 U.S. Open Golf Championships, but that coverage will begin at a later time than when Days Of Our Lives airs. So, we’re not sure what’s going on over there at NBC this Thursday and Friday.

You guys will just have to flip on NBC this Thursday and Friday to see what they have decided to air in Days Of Our Lives’ vacant time slot.

On a much brighter note, we can tell you that NBC will start airing new episodes of Days Of Our Lives again this Monday afternoon, June 20, 2022 in the 1 pm central standard time slot. Then, they will go back to airing them in the 12 pm central standard time slot after that. We have no idea what the Monday time slot change is all about. We’re just telling you what TV guide has listed. So, just get prepared for all of that madness.

Again, NBC is scheduled to start back airing new episodes of Days Of Our Lives this Monday afternoon, June 20, 2022 at approximately 1 pm central standard time. Then, they will start back airing it at 12 pm central standard time after that.
