NBC is evolving its daytime programming lineup with the move of Days of Our Lives to stream exclusively on Peacock and the launch of NBC News Daily in the drama's former network timeslot.

For the first time ever, all new episodes of the 58-time Emmy Award-winning drama will debut on Peacock daily with the show's robust library already available to stream for Peacock Premium subscribers.
