The week of April 27, 2020

Another week, another return. Kyle Lowder, who made his last appearance on the soap in August of 2019, is back for another run as Rex Brady — albeit not in Salem.

The character is set to resurface in Paris on Thursday, April 30. Look for Rex to run into Sarah (Linsey Godfrey), who’s currently on the run with baby Mickey (Josephine and Rosalind May).

Kelly Thiebaud, who debuted as Evan’s (Brock Kelly) sister, Zoey Burge, earlier this month, won’t be sticking around. Word is the role has already been recast. Daytime newcomer Alyshia Ochse will begin portraying Zoey in May.

Days of our Lives History

DOOL made its debut in 1965 and is one of the longest-running daytime soap operas in American history. It has outlasted other soaps to become a mainstay for many households. Needless to say, five decades of storylines have kept viewers locked in and wanting more.

From Stefano DiMera’s (Joseph Mascolo) evil schemes to Victor Kiriakis’s (John Aniston) one-liners to the epic love story of Bo (Peter Reckell) and Hope (Kristian Alfonso), DAYS knows how to entertain and keep fans coming back for more. Sadly, times are shifting and daytime soap operas are shrinking.

Bringing the Drama

It is one of only four remaining soap operas currently on the air. The other three daytime dramas include General Hospital (GH), The Young and the Restless (YR), and The Bold and the Beautiful (BB). DAYS airs weekdays on NBC. Check your local listings for air times.
