Speaking to Soaps.com, the actors couldn’t give any details on which of their on-screen children would be appearing. However, Hogestyn did give some juicy tidbits on what fans can expect with the time jump.
“[There’s] a very unusual time jump. Ron [Carlivati, head writer] has crafted a really complex interesting way of telling the story that makes you hang on with both hands. As actors, we really had to chart and keep a ledger on where we were within the moment and fill in the blanks on what may have transpired.”

He added that he wasn’t sure of when the time jump would take place. However, he estimated it would begin around Thanksgiving and include a “big reveal” on New Year’s Eve.
As fans recall, last New Year’s, Vivian Alamain (then Louise Sorel, now Robin Strasser) showed up. She brought along Stefan O. DiMera (then Tyler Christopher, now Brandon Barash). Nobody even knew that Stefan DiMera (Joseph Mascolo) had another child out there.

John and Marlena are a fan-favorite couple. The DOOL duo have been involved on and off for years and recently, celebrated an anniversary. Hall described “Jarlena” as a “solid home base,” adding it is what every soap opera needs — a stable and recognizable couple.

Hogestyn added that “Jarlena” is about stability. When people are young they often bounce in and out of romances. However, older couples invest a lot in their relationships. John and Marlena are setting a standard as to what a couple should be.
The website asked the Days of Our Lives actors to share their soapy wish. It is pretty simple — they both believe they need more humor. They would also like John and Marlena to go on adventures while “engaging in amorous activities.”

This “time jump” b.s. is the worst idea yet, (& they’ve had plenty!) It’s just a really LAZY way to tell a story without having to write it! It speaks to having no ideas on how to wrap up stories that are boxed into corners they’ve painted themselves into… And it alienates viewers! Why do we care at all about anything going on in Salem? Because we’ve been allowed to watch story & connections & emotions unfold! For instance, we’ve seen Ben & Ciara fall in love! If they’d jumped forward a year ago, we’d have thought Ciara had lost her mind! But we’ve watched it unfold, so we like them together. Just like Gabi & Stefan, who have wonderful chemistry together!! I feel Xander & Sarah should be a couple, as we’ve witnessed Xander showing a loving gentle side, who just wants to be loved & accepted. If they’d jumped ahead a year earlier, we wouldn’t have seen that! Jumping ahead a year doesn’t give us the chance to grow with them! Doesn’t allow us to CARE! We’re not attached if it’s just thrust upon us & shoved down our throats! I won’t feel attached or sympathy or interest in a story we haven’t seen, but is just thrown on us in such a jarring way! IT’S LAZY WRITING, screaming of desperation & defeat, letting us viewers know that the writers have run out of creative storytelling… It didn’t work at all on Desperate Housewives, but at least they had one season to the next, with a huge hiatus in-between, so the contrast was far less jarring, and it STILL didn’t work! DON’T DO IT!
I agree but its already been filmed . so we stop watching or we have to put up with it ,
I say get rid of the writers and get some grownup ones because the one’s they have must be children !!!!!!.
THIS JUMP SUCKS JUST KEEP DAYS OF OUR LIVES ON THE AIR PLEASE.
Whewwwww! What a week. Time jump? Are the writers on vacation?
