Even abbreviated, 15-30 minute episodes would be better than an extended preemption.

If this had been planned from the very beginning, this two week break would have been the perfect time for Beyond Salem Season 2 on Peacock 😂

I would rather have a preemption than the annoyance of some people seeing the show as normal and others not. My local NBC never shows an episode again overnight and does not run a banner if a show isn’t on to watch online so if I wasn’t online I would miss episodes without knowing it.

Well... 😍😍

I see he has a tat 😂

They should let EJ show that tattoo to Belle... 😅 They are not utilizing this man properly.

It's time for Will to see the tattoo.😂😍

I'm calling BS on these DAYS "cutting room floor" videos.  I am supposed to believe that cash strapped DAYS films, scores, and edits whole scenes and then cuts them from the show for time?  Why wouldn't they just insert the scene into the next day's show?

It is an appealing digital extra, but I think that was the intent and they were never actually cut from an episode.

 

Just a reminder.

I hope this is a good one

My thoughts: Most soaps air within a few weeks of filming, so it's easier to shift scenes around to the next episode.  But Days films so many episodes so fast (often filming 8 episodes per week), so by the time the editors get the raw footage, the show has probably already filmed a lot of episodes far ahead, which would create a domino effect in the amount of episodes that would need to be adjusted.  Just my thoughts.

(edit: my original post was very long but I decided to remove my excess verbiage)

I appreciate your thoughtful and well researched response, but looking at that clip, (and the fact that it stands alone as an encapsulation of their plot), doesn't it seem a bit contrived to call it a "cutting room" scene?

Oh. whoops, my reply was just a generalized thing.  But I don't know what the show's rationale was for this particular scene. 

The description on the YT page (if you click "see more")
says (11/30/21 Deleted Scene). You're right that it's a full deleted scene.  And I have no idea why it was deleted.

I don't know - most cut scenes seems to be "recap" ones. It makes me believe that they might film some extra scenes at the time that they sort of know they can cut in case the episode fall a bit short as to avoid having to go back and film "filler" dialogue scenes later.
