I can already tell this Steven Beale return story is going to be crap. I don't envy Sean O'Connor, DTC and team have left him with a show that's gutted and in shambles. The sad thing is he'll probably receive a lot more criticism from the press and general public because he likely won't have the same hype machine DTC has behind him.

Embarrassing (though I hope Jane dies):

This Bobby crap is embarrassingly bad. They need to stop this sh!t and ship his little ass to a mental institution already.

I kind of hate that they gave Peggy a "Last Orders" special when Barbara really left the show a long time ago (and they did give Peggy a Revealed special during that last exit). I hate even it even more than we never got anything like this for Pat/Pam St. Clement, who was the show much longer.

To be honest, all I cared about was Sharon and Grant. Ross and Letitia always had great chemistry and it's nice to see that hasn't changed with the years that have gone by. I can still buy Sharon as the ultimate love of Grant's life.

That whole Peggy hating Sharon crap over the past few years was nonsense though. When Sharon left in early 2006, she was on very good terms with Peggy. I never understood how Peggy reverted to hating Sharon again when they hadn't seen each other since then (until recently). Though, I suppose Peggy would always harbour some resentment for Sharon for coming in between her boys (which wasn't entirely Sharon's fault anyway) and leaving Phil and Grant's relationship damaged forever in many respects.

I think Barbara's first stint as Peggy is my favorite. It was really from her return in 2005 (since Barbara has to take 2003-2004 off due to health reasons) where she became an absurd cartoon character and was never really the same again. I think Matthew Robinson and John Yorke did a good job of giving Peggy some maturity and balancing her over the top tendencies.

Did they really try to reference this Sharon/Peggy scene from 1995 and get it all wrong?

Isn't Paige almost 30 this point? Why is she still fighting with high school girls by the looks of the pic in that article? LOL

She might as well start a family, this era has been a badly handled mess for her.

So, I'm guessing Belinda is now a permanent character? They've cast her husband.

To be honest, I feel B-Day was her best solo album. It now seems lost in the shuffle of her discography, and at the time, she did get a bit of a mini-backlash from critics and fans, but I still think it had her best singles and overall production. I thought Sasha Fierce was crap and never enjoyed Single Ladies.

I'm kind of bored by her now too. It's way too gimmicky and self-indulgent and I don't feel she's progressing musically at all anymore. I do admire that she's making her album releases an "event" but the actual content isn't really there for me.

My favorite of the Like A Prayer remixes, resembles the original version, but also very distinct. Shep Pettibone knew what he was doing back in the 80's and early 90's.
