I've been trying to find out if Days will be preempted for the Winter Olympics in February. I haven't found any info. Has anyone seen anything?

Jason indicates the preempt dates are Feb. 4 thru Feb. 18. In a comment, he says if the Olympics get cancelled then the show will move up.
His Facebook post is dated Jan. 4th. I'd put the link here but it's about a million characters long! I don't understand why Facebook has such horrible links.

I don't have a clue. I've seen news bits about the possibility.

Yeah, it looks like the last day Days is airing is Thursday, Feb. 3rd. After that it won't be on until after the Olympics is over.  |

Days will set record for fewest episodes aired in one month
"Days of Our Lives" will air only 9 episodes in February 2022, smashing its previous record of 12 episodes for least amount of episodes aired in a month. The previous record of 12 episodes was set in August 2004 (Summer Olympics). The rest of the list: 13 episodes (August 2016); 14 episodes (June 1973); 15 episodes (October 1971, August 2012); 16 episodes (November 1965, January 1995, January 1999, September 2001, July 2021); 17 episodes (October 1967, July 1973, July 1995, August 2021).

Source: Jason 47 MY message to NBC: GO FLY A KITE! Absolute joke. Just discovered Days could have easily continued uninterrupted during the Olympics. Need evidence? Olympic coverage starts at 2:00 EST on weekdays. Instead of Days being on at noon during the Olympics "The Kelly Clarkson" show will air in its place. Then pouring more SALT into the wound "Ellen" will be on at 1:00. What a DISGRACEFUL move by NBC. Just what the world doesn't need more babbling talk shows. Not to mention the added aggravation of this happening in the middle of winter where most of us are clustered indoors. Hell, if you want to take a break from Days NBC at least have the courtesy to do it in the summer. Just another reminder of how low on the totem pole Days is to NBC. |

I'm fine with them taking the break. I'd like to think they're using the time to come up with better stories. Of course, I doubt that's the case.
I haven't watched at all this week. I plan on kind of rationing out the shows to make the break shorter. I don't need to see the show every day. Especially not the version of the show that is airing now.
Ellen doesn't come on the same channel as Days where I live so I guess they might air something else.

Days is on at 1pm CST/2pm EST at my house. The local news always airs before it here.
This would have been the perfect time to air a new Days movie or limited series on Peacock. I haven't watched the Days Christmas movie yet. I'll likely watch it during the break.

Made it through Week One.
This is hard! I can't imagine how much harder it would be if Days ended.

It appears no one understands these days how life works? I still can't believe NBC decided in favor of prosaic and boring talk shows instead of airing Days uninterrupted during these (dreary in my mind) Winter Olympics.
Escapism and flights of imaginative fancy are very important for the mind.
I have been in a rancid mood for nearly two weeks now and I suspect part of the reason is not having a chance to "escape" into my favorite soap opera.

I think the issue is that Days airs at different times in different areas. It would end up preempted in some areas for two weeks while airing in others.
