Peter Reckell (Bo Brady) will exit Days of our Lives -- but he will be back. The Emmy-nominated performer is being shelved for a while because he's been on-screen too much.
To accommodate Reckell's down time, the show will have Bo travel out of town to visit family.
Though perhaps one of Days of our Lives' most recognizable performers, it wasn't until last year that Reckell earned his very first Daytime Emmy nomination. Reckell debuted on Days of our Lives in 1983. He exited the show four years later, but returned in 1990. In 1992, Reckell took another three-year break from the show. He's currently been with the show since 1995.
Reckell's "last" airdate has not yet been announced by NBC. The actor is expected to be off-screen for about a month.
