Soap Opera Digest: How did you react when you heard the show would be moving?
Camila Banus (Gabi): I was excited. I see it as a great, fun, innovative move, so I am just there for the ride and to see where this is going to take us.
James Reynolds (Abe): I didn't really know what to think in the beginning; I'm quite excited now. But it was different. We're leaving this home of 57 years and going to something completely new, but I am embracing all the possibilities.
Deidre Hall (Marlena): We had heard rumblings about NBC maybe letting DAYS go, and I think there was such an enormous relief to have another home. And I think of Peacock as NBC so it's the same family to me, so I'm pleased to be still in production and still shooting at home.
Eric Martsolf (Brady): I think it's a good thing. I've seen the powers of streaming within my own home. My 16-year-old twin boys, they have educated me very quickly on how easy, how quick and how mobile their shows are. I think once we get the word out and people see how simple it is to make the transition, I think we're going to be fine. Soap fans know change, they're okay with change, and they will follow their family anywhere.
