Speaking to Deadline in a new interview, when asked if his character is the same guy that he was nearly three decades ago, Steve says, “He’s not operating on a code of ethics that is great. Albert was like, ‘Do you care about being a bad guy?’ I said, ‘No, man. Whatever. I can play anything.’ I don’t know how much I can say but he does some not nice things in this chapter. There may be some redemption.”
Burton was also asked if there was a possibility that he might stay on Days of Our Lives full-time. He said, “I don’t know. You really have to ask Ron Carlivati and Albert. From what I gather, Peacock’s happy with this, NBC’s happy with this. But if the opportunity’s there, sure. I never say never. You know, for a while, daytime was kind of in the dumps. Until streaming came along, daytime was hanging by a string.
Then NBC goes, “Hey, we have a great brand here. Let’s let’s do a spinoff.” Now there is such great energy in the building. They just have this energy like, “Hey, we’re doing something cool.” I had a blast and got to see a bunch of old friends that I haven’t seen for a while ‘cuz obviously the daytime community’s small and we only see each other at award events.”
Burton also agreed that daytime television is on a roll again thanks to streaming platforms like Peacock. He explained, “I wouldn’t be able to do any of the things I do if the fans weren’t so loyal and loved our shows and wanted content so much. And this is where NBC kind of took the ball and ran with it. They’re giving the fans what they want. That’s why the first Beyond Salem was so successful, and hopefully the second one will surpass or equal that.”
