45 years ago Days Of Our Lives took to the airwaves and now NBC has announced that the daytime drama will finally introduce their first “gay centered storyline.”
Details about the storyline have not been divulged, however a production insider says that more than likely a current cast member will hook up with a member of the same sex and that the storyline will debut in the next few months.
The move is the first time an NBC daytime show has tackled the homosexuality issue since 2006 when the now cancelled show Passions featured a gay arc.
Soaps may be watching as their ratings sharply decline, but at least they are finally stepping outside of their typical comfort zone.
