     Do you all feel like this last renewal was the last?  I think the renewal DOOL just got puts it through Sept. 2021 right???   I know the contracts being released and resigned were a "cost saving measure" but with departures of Casey & Galen – it just got me thinking.  Is this it?  Are we headed towards the end.

    There were talks of DOOL moving to the Peacock Streaming Network & we all know how well that turned out for AMC and OLTL.   

    I know this show can be sh*t sometimes (and not having it on would certainly give me some of my time back) but it ended would be like the death of an old friend.   My Mom and I talk about it DAILY…… usually with me saying "Mom you watch Days today?" and her saying "yup and I FF all through Gina/Hope."  LMAO…  Would certainly miss that the most….. the dialogue around it vs. the actual show itself.

     Me too.   As ridiculous as it has become I will miss it when it’s finally gone.

    I would surely miss it! I look forward to it every day and have been watching it for decades. I can’t imagine that NBC could come up with anything people would like better than Days. C’mon–another talk show? NO! Another cooking show? NO! Another reality/advice show? NO! See, they have to leave Days on because the networks are flooded with those other options.

     It would be like losing an old friend.  I’ve been watching for over 35 years.  Even when some of the SLs stink, I’ve become "attached" to some of the characters and look forward to seeing what’s going to happen next.  

    Bluebonnet, I get more channels than I can count and at any time of day I can find several shows in the channel guide that makes me ask "who in the world wants to watch this?".

    My mom is almost 88. We’ve watched Days together since I was 4, in 1967! My mom would miss Days and she’s just not tech savvy enough to handle streaming or watching online. These last few weeks when it was pre-emoted for politics, she relied on me to tell her what happened. My mom is not the only one. I’m sure that’s what brought down the other two soaps that went to streaming only. My MIL watched AMC and she barely knows how to turn on a computer. I don’t think they realize they have a huge older generation audience who just isn’t capable of watching any other way but on TV.
