Currently, the show is being renewed on a yearly basis with the latest contract for 2018 yet to be renewed. “Basically, we’ve heard that there won’t be a Days in 2018,” a source affiliated with the show revealed.
So, what will replace the popular soap opera’s time slot?
It’s been said that Megyn Kelly’s new role with the station may lead to her own daytime news segment. Right now, Days currently takes up the one o’clock hour which could turn into Kelly’s new slot. While her fate with the network is still in the works after her recent move from Fox we can only expect to see what NBC has in store for the soap opera and Kelly in 2018.
