The future of Days of Our Lives is officially uncertain. Production on the latest season, which also happens to be the 55th season of the long-running soap, is about to wrap up and the actors have all been released from their contracts according to TMZ.

Days of Our Lives: An indefinite hiatus
The NBC soap opera is going on an indefinite hiatus and the network is expected to decide by early 2020 whether or not they will bring the show back for a 56th season. The good news for fans however is that the show shoots 8 months in advance so there will be enough new episodes through to summer 2020.
DOOL is not cancelled
As of right now, DOOL is not cancelled. It is possible that they will bring everyone back (at lower salaries), if the network re-ups. NBC has not commented on the news thus far. Stay tuned...
