Peacock has renewed “Days of our Lives” for two additional seasons, the streaming service announced on Thursday. The deal keeps the long-running series in production through at least Season 63, or the 2027-2028 television season.
Currently celebrating its 60th season, the daytime drama series continues to rank among the top 15 entertainment series on the platform since becoming exclusive to the service in September 2022.
The previous deal, which was announced last year, was for just one additional season that would’ve run through Season 61 or the 2025-2026 season. The new deal sees the daytime drama series renewed through 2027-2028, which aligns with CBS’ renewals of soap operas “The Bold and the Beautiful” and “The Young and the Restless.”
“Days of our Lives” recently received 13 Daytime Emmy Award nominations for “The 52nd Annual Daytime Emmy Awards,” including Outstanding Daytime Drama Series, marking the highest number of nominations the series has received since its exclusive debut on Peacock.
Premiering November 8, 1965, the daytime drama series follows the lives, loves, and conflicts of the Horton, Brady, DiMera, Kiriakis, and Hernandez families and their many friends and colleagues. As one of the longest-running scripted television programs in the world, it is enjoyed in many foreign territories, including Canada, Sweden, New Zealand, Israel, South Africa, and Australia.
“Days of our Lives” is produced by Corday Productions in association with Sony Pictures Television. Ken Corday is the show’s executive producer. Noel Maxam is a co-executive producer. Head writers are Paula Cwikly and Jeanne Marie Ford.
