As Days of our Lives fans know, anything can happen in Salem. For nearly six decades, soap opera fans have witnessed shocking plot twists, disastrous love triangles, epic feuds and so much more involving their favorite characters. As Peacock celebrated Days of our Lives' 60th Anniversary Celebration at The Garland Hotel in North Hollywood, California, in November 2025, Us Weekly just had to ask the cast to share their favorite story lines of all time. "You're going to think I'm going to say possession, but I'm going to say working with my twin sister. She was a special education teacher when they pulled her in to join the show," Deidre Hall exclusively told Us. "She just came out and played herself. It enabled her to pay off her college loan, which tells you there's a great imbalance between television and teaching." 'Days of Our Lives' Cast Share Their Most Shocking Plot Twists in Salem Martha Madison, who plays Belle Black on the Peacock series, fell in love with a story line that captivated audiences in early 2025. "I really loved the 'Who shot EJ?' story and getting to do the whole trial," she shared with Us. "Doing a big, juicy trial is one of the things that soaps are known for. Getting to be the prosecutor in the trial was really fun. Belle is typically what we would consider a smarter character, even though she's done a lot of stupid things. I like to play that. Getting to do opening statements is fun. I loved it."

Linsey Godfrey Suzanne Rogers and Linsey Godfrey Todd Williamson/Peacock "I think my favorite story line was there was a period of time where Xander and Sarah were teaming up, and they were almost doing a detective agency type thing. They were trying to come together to solve a problem or figure out a mystery," she recalled to Us. "It was just so much fun. But my favorite line was from Leann Hunley, who played Anna. I keep demanding to see this character called Don Craig. I need to see Don Craig. She turns around and she goes, 'Don Craig went out to mail a letter and he was never heard from again.' It's my favorite thing. I couldn't get through the scene." Paul Telfer "I would say this story that I got to do with Suzanne [Rogers] and Linsey [Godfrey] and Serena Scott Thomas and Eric [Martsolf] about my mother coming to Salem and everything that came out there," he said. "That's why I got nominated and ended up winning the Emmy. On top of that, it was just the best to work with that team of actors." Suzanne Rogers "Mine goes back a few years. My red shoe story line was my favorite, obviously, but working with John Aniston was also one of my favorites," the actress, who plays Maggie Horton, recalled. "But working with [Paul Telfer] and Linsey [Godfrey]? They feel like they're my kids. They work the same way I do. They study. They come in in the morning and they know what they're doing, and they have a great sense of humor and they're not bad to look at either." Abigail Klein Emily O'Brien, AnnaLynne McCord, Abigail Klein, Dan Feuerriegel Todd Williamson/Peacock "My favorite story line for me thus far is actually the one that's just now airing. My character, Stephanie Johnson, turns out she's the town publicist, but it turns out she's also a closeted romance writer," Klein shared. "We're getting a little spicy, really. What's funny is, when I first read the scripts, I thought, 'Oh my god, the writers have my house booked' because that's what I read at home. The spicier, the better." Emily O'Brien "There are two that come to mind. The first is where Gwen is wearing the Sarah mask to try to win Xander over," O'Brien said. "The second story line that I absolutely loved was the trio with Dimitri and Leo. The amount of laughs we shared, the amount of fun we had and the comedy that we found between the three of us was so fantastic. I thought it was gold. The amount of inside jokes and things that we incorporated into those scenes are just magical." Dan Feuerriegel "One of my most recent story lines was 'Who shot EJ?' I loved that story line because of the build-up," Feuerriegel, who plays EJ DiMera, told Us. "My character was four or five different character slides just causing havoc, causing trouble. That was a lot of fun to play that part, and then EJ to get his comeuppance, and then after that, his change in attitude after a near-death experience. And then on top of that, in trying to find out who did it. It's been a lot of story line. 'Days of Our Lives' Cast Share Their Favorite Couples From 60 Seasons Raven Bowens "I hate to say because it got mixed reviews but the devil's story line is my favorite," Bowens revealed. "It was an homage to what had been done in the past, and I got to work a lot with Deidre Hall, who is an icon, and that was just incredible. For people who watched Days before, one of their biggest memories is the devil possessi
