So Happy to Be Here
What could be better than starting things of the the pure excitement that Carson Boatman (Johnny) and Eric Martsolf (Brady) brought to the day?
Too Cute!
Mary Beth Evans may not have been able to make it, but a clever LEGO fan made sure Stephen Nichols still got to spend some time with Steve and Kayla!
Supercouple
And you thought you were John and Marlena’s biggest fans! OK, some of you probably are, but Deidre Hall and Drake Hogestyn still managed to keep cool with a couple of Days of Our Lives‘ own fans!
So Happy Together
Is this a sign of things to come? Xander and Sarah may be on the outs at the moment, but we have a feeling that soon enough, they’ll be smiling together as much as Linsey Godfrey and Paul Telfer!
Like Sands Through the Hourglass…
It wouldn’t be a Days of Our Lives fan event if someone didn’t bring a giant hourglass to sign. And once Jackée Harry (Paulina) and James Reynolds (Abe) added their names, it looks like there weren’t a whole lot of spaces left for more!
Fabulous, Darling!
Whether playing Kristen or the newly rediscovered Susan, Stacy Haiduk always looks like she’s having the time of her life — just like she does at Day of Days!
Double Shots
“Thank you to Robert Scott Wilson (Alex) for being the best comrade,” Emily O’Brien (Theresa) shared on Instagram. “An absolute pro,” he responded with a champaigne toast emoji. “First one in the books.”
In Sync
We don’t know how Chanel and Johnny are going to do for their second try at love, but if they’re as much on the same page as Raven Bowens and Boatman are signing autographs, then they might have a pretty darn decent shot!
Two Can Play That Game
We guess Remington Hoffman decided that he’d do a little shooting of his own while he was in front of the cameras! Speaking of shooting, have you seen the big Days of Our Lives winter preview? Actually, we guess that has more of a stabbing than a shooting… But either way, Li? Are you OK!?
Kicking It Off
We could make some crack about the Salem PD kicking butts and taking names, but the as Elia Cantu (Jada) put it on her Instagram story with Galen Gering (Rafe), “This is how two Aquarians arrive to the function!”
Powerhouses
We’re pretty sure that if Ava and Kristen really put their heads together, they could be running Salem in no time. For now, though, we’re just happy to see Tamara Braun and Haiduk together!
It’s a Sign(ing)
The pens never went dry and the smiles didn’t fade as Billy Flynn (Chad) and Bryan Dattilo (Lucas) met a slew of fans eager to say hi to their favorite Salemites.
Father and Son
Dan Feuerriegel looked just the part of the proud papa as he “EJ” and “Johnny” posed for a family photo. “A weekend for the books,” Carson Boatman shared on his Instagram stories while enjoying some pizza after the big day. “Thank you to everyone who came out!”
Hey There
Greg Rikaart noted that he and on-screen beau Peter Porte were “ready spaghetti” for the day over on his Instagram, and that was clearly the case! The question is, are they ready for the messiness that’s about to be Leo and Dimitri’s lives?
Salem’s Sweethearts
“I’d say Day of Days was a great success,” Victoria Grace (Gwen) shared on Instagram after a day of greeting fans with Lucas Adams (Tripp) and the cast. “Thank you all who came out to meet us!!”
Whodunnit?!
Quick, someone get the chalk and make an outline! Xander appears to have been murdered! Wait, no, that’s the wall, not the ground.
Look, Up In the Sky!
Either the fellas are very excited about watching a UFO landing somewhere above them, or they’re posing for a photo. If this were Salem, we wouldn’t count out the first (remember the meteor twins?), but since it’s not, we’re guessing it’s the second!
Fine Fellows
The handsome quotia just got bumped up a notch just from this photo of Billy Blynn (Chad), Brandon Barash (Stefan), Nichols, Wally Kurth (Justin), Martsolf and Bryan Dattilo (Lucas)!
The Gang’s All Here
Behind-the-scenes bigwigs like executive vice president of programming at Peacock, Michael Sluchan, producer Randy Dugan, executive producers Ken Corday and Janet Drucker, director of scripted programming for NBCUniversal TV and streaming, Cherise Masukawa, and head writer Ron Carlivati joined Days stars Hall, Hogestyn, Harry and Reyolds for the big day! Whew, we’re exhausted just writing that out.
Packed Stage
Salem really did take over Los Angeles on Saturday! As Emily O’Brien put it on her Instagram, “What an incredible day! Thank you to all of you who came from near and far to spend the day with us, I truly enjoyed meeting all of you! I am so grateful to be a part of this TV family.”
Music to Our Ears
Speaking of the Day Players, their performance at the fan-fueled weekend was a blast, but just one stop of many on their tour from Michigan to Florida!
Behind the Scenes
Interviews, photographs, videos — when not with the fans, the cast was kept busy in a virtual informatino hub answering every question thrown at them! (Or playing coy when they don’t want to give story away.)
Father/Daughter Day
Nichols and Klein found a comfy chair to relax when they weren’t out meeting and greating the fans. But Klein made sure everyone knew “The love fest was real” when she responded to Days of Our Lives‘ official Instagram!
Cooling Down
As Cantu put it on her Instagram story with her handsome co-star fanning her down, “Aww, he can be sweet when he wants to!”
Welcome to Salem
And with that, we’ll leave you with one last photo of Hall and Hogestyn in front of a mockup of Brady’s Pub. We couldn’t think of a better way to close out the day and welcome you into the show!
