I agree 100%! Lucas and Sami having an secret affair as they also spar with each other with EJ and Nicole thrown in the mix just feels like Days. This past year has seriously been the first time I thoroughly enjoyed watching Days since the 2009-2011 period, which was a may have been a strange time for the show but was carried superbly by AS, AZ, LK, NB and SR. 

I hate we’ve already lost Jennifer & Abby from the Gwen story and now this with Sweeney taking a break. I can’t stand the Ben/Ciara/Claire hour at all. 

Ben/Ciara/Claire is the absolute low point of the show.

Well Im not sad for Theo. He was marrying someone with memory loss. Once that memory returned if he had married her, Ron would have given us, I cant divorce Theo because he has autism or some BS like that. So im glad its ending now.

Ben & Ciara are on Days Of Our Lives: Beyond Salem

 

Maybe Covid has given VK more perspective tp be more recurring than a guest on DOOL

Ali Sweeney stopped taping Days in April because she went to Vancouver, BC to tape some Hallmark movies.  This involved renting a place to stay by herself for two weeks in quarantine before taping, per Canada's Covid rules for people entering Canada at that particular time. (I think the rules are different now but that's what the rules were then.) Anyhow she quarantined for two weeks, then taped a few movies.  Then returned to California in mid-June for a family event.

Ali began taping at Days again sometime in July, (or maybe the end of June).  So basically we will see Sami again sometime in November or December, but it could be earlier because they don't always tape things in order. (No idea how long that next arc lasts)

I get the impression that she might've thought that the Hallmark movies were put on the shelf for the foreseeable future and made a loose commitment to doing "a year" on DAYS and they went ahead and early on announced her doing the show for a year. Of course, Hallmark ended up changing those plans and since Ali didn't actually sign a contract with them (probably due to having a contract with Hallmark), they ended up working around her schedule. Ah well, at least she'll be back and not left in limbo like Sarah.

Only Days would manage to get aced out of a year-long contract with a key star. Ridiculous.

If nothing else maybe this will spur them to firm up a commitment to Cady McClain and others.

Melissa Reeves recently admitted in a Facebook video that she is returning for the Christmas episode.

I'm pretty sure Missy doesn't do facebook.

Sunday 8 August, there was an informal music concert by Scott Reeves, Emily Reeves, and some Reeves cousins, at a restaurant in Tennessee. 

Missy was there in the audience...  Scott and Missy were chatting/socializing with the restaurant customers and met some Jack and Jen fans who were there.  Missy privately confided to one of the JnJ fans the news, (and apparently gave permission for them to announce it). That person tweeted it out.

Edit, I see there's a new thread for Missy's return here:
https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/59838-dool-vet-returns/
I will re-post this over on that thread, with the rest of the details.

A video of that convo has not yet be uploaded.

 

Well, this IS Days, so they could mean the 2022 Christmas episode.

Well, it IS already 2022 in Salem time, due to the timejump.

(sorry, couldn't resist the snark).

 

The person on twitter said she spoke to Missy for only a moment after the concert. She tweeted that she wished she had asked if Missy was doing more than the single Christmas episode, but didn't want to push.
