You didn't mention this in your stats, but as of this past Monday (April 27), Days is the third longest running daytime drama on US network television. The 10 longest running daytime dramas on US network television are now Guiding Light, General Hospital, Days, As the World Turns, Y&R, One Life to Live, All My Children, Search for Tomorrow (counting both CBS years and NBC years), Another World, B&B.

I didn't remember to check on that milestone. Thanks for letting me know!

I'm surprised Kate Mansi was upped to contract. I was under the assumption that she was not staying long-term.

[JAS0N47]

 

She isn't staying long-term. That's why I held her off the contract list for 4 weeks, but they never corrected it in the credits. They haven't been using the usual NBC credits because of the pandemic. These credits do have errors (such as listing editor Samantha Stone, who passed away in early 2018...have no idea how her name ended up back on the list, but NBC TV never listed her). So, this could be an error, but since I only have access now to the "online" credits (which is what is now airing on NBC TV), I have to list her in the contract position. Digest already announced her exit for later this month in the newest issue.

Thanks for the clear explanation Jason !
