Days goes dark next week, tentatively set to resume production on August 7.
Deadline reports that "Days of Our Lives", which was set to resume production on Monday, July 31 will now be making that a dark week. Production is now tentatively set to resume on Monday, August 7. Since Tuesday, when Deadline announced the results of Sony's internal investigation into Co-Executive Producer Albert Alarr's offensive workplace behavior, "Days" has since hired a new public relations firm; Arianne Zucker (Nicole) told fans to "hang tight"; and now the show is adding an additional dark week to its schedule. In a statement Corday Productions sent to Deadline on Tuesday, Alarr was still employed at "Days" as its Co-Executive Producer, sparking cast, crew and fan outrage. Deadline reports Alarr was still set to direct the episode taping on Friday, August 4, until the show shut down production for the week.
