DAYS: 2-day preemption this Thanksgiving weekend

[JAS0N47]

"Days of Our Lives" will be preempted on Thursday, November 24 (Thanksgiving Day) for "The National Dog Show" and Friday, November 25 for "NHL Hockey: Boston Bruins vs. Detroit Red Wings." While the Thanksgiving Day preemption is an annual tradition, the Friday preemption is a new addition this year. NBC's recently-renewed NHL contract allows for NBC to air a daytime hockey game on the Friday after Thanksgiving each year for the next 10 years. Although "Days" will now be preempted two days in a row each November, it will no longer be preempted two days in a row each July, since NBC no longer has the rights to Wimbledon Tennis. These will be the 294th and 295th national preemptions in "Days of Our Lives" history.
