As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but share my feelings as Billy Flynn, after ten years, bids farewell to Days of Our Lives, where he brought Chad DiMera to life. In a heartfelt chat with Variety, he reminisced about the wonderful moments on the Peacock set and gleamed with anticipation for his upcoming journey with The Young and the Restless.

Although specifics about his upcoming character remain undisclosed, Flynn discussed his experience working on the show led by Dan Feurriegel.

Speaking about his shift from one renowned series to another, the actor expressed, “We strive to deliver our finest work amidst the challenges we’ve encountered on this show. One aspect that appeals to me in this transition is the slower pace, which allows for more thorough execution of tasks. However, I was molded into a battle-hardened performer in this environment.

In a subsequent remark, the actor who had just arrived dead noted, “The rhythm is distinct here, yet it molded me into the actor and individual I am today.

Moreover, Flynn expressed his affection for acting and narrating tales. Yet, he couldn’t fathom devoting his entire life to a single narrative, leading him to seek fresh experiences.

Reflecting on his time on Days of Our Lives, the actor commented, “It’s astounding to me that ten years have passed like they were just a moment. When I began here, I wasn’t a newcomer; I was 30. I didn’t start acting until I turned 26. So it feels like it went by in the blink of an eye.

Moreover, Flynn shared that over the last ten years, he’s explored multiple avenues when it comes to his character, adopting diverse elements of his roles.

Reflecting on my heartfelt goodbye, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions. For ten extraordinary years, I’ve been an integral piece of this beloved series, and now, saying farewell feels like losing a cherished friend.
