Game shows were removed from NBC Daytime's lineup in 1994 and soap operas were largely dropped between the 1980s and the 1990s.
By the 2000s, NBC Daytime had been reduced to only two shows: Days of Our Lives and Passions.
In 2022, the network ultimately announced that Days of Our Lives would move exclusively to streaming on NBCU's Peacock, and be replaced by an NBC News-produced news program.
The remaining network controlled daytime hours are programmed by NBC’s news division.
They briefly revived the format with three game shows in the 1993–94 season, but has not returned since.
