So, the 30th anniversary storyline will probably be about a murder reveal then? In other news, I still miss Queen Janine. I'm glad she got the exit she got, but this is one character I think carried the show over huge chunks of the widely shaky past couple of years.

I don't know if I care, Patsy's heart hasn't been in the character or show for years, and it showed, IMO.

One of her most forgotten and underrated hits, IMO:

25 years since the Like A Prayer Pepsi/video controversy, which seems like nothing today by today's standards. I think Like A Prayer (the song) stands as her best single release ever. It's probably the one Madonna song everyone seems to love, as mentioned in this Slant article. Through the Years: Madonna’s "Like a Prayer" at 25 Flashback: Madonna Premiered Controversial 'Like a Prayer' Pepsi Ad 25 Years Ago The late 80's/early 90's is definitely my favourite Madonna era.

She was overlooked by her own country too, despite having a pretty decent trackrecord.

Mariah herself can barely sing anymore. Her career is like watching something rot, mostly because she seems to live in such delusion about herself. I preferred the Mariah that was Tommy Mottola's puppet. She still had zero personality, but he sure did reign her crazy ass in.

Mariah hasn't released anything worth listening to in years. She's over 40 now, she needs to stop writing songs with a teenage mindset. Nobody is here for that.

TNG really should have ended after the 7th or 8th season. They should have put it on hiatus for a year or two before rebooting.

Well, she thought she was going to win Album of the Year at least. LOL

I'm surprised this crap story made ABC news: http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wireStory/soap-opera-suicide-storyline-draws-praise-concern-21607908

Pics from Sonia's first episode back: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/eastenders/posts/Photo-Spoiler-Sonias-back I have never liked Sonia (or Cassidy for that matter), but her relationships with Carol and Bianca are relatively unexplored and are about the only good thing that could come out of this return. The girl with the guitar is obviously Rebecca Fowler, so I guess we finally have a Fowler on the show again...

I definitely prefer the early 90's over the late 90's (though both good). It's almost as if you could cut the 90's in half as somewhat unique eras for the show. I guess you could say that for any show though.

I was surprised by that, I wonder how soon before Ronnie meets her demise as well. I'm glad they're writing her as a full on villain now. That troubled heroine crap just never worked for her.

Bell sided with Alden over Scott too, hence his first dismissal from the show. I wonder what would've happened had Scott stayed and Alden was dismissed.

Leann Rimes is sort of past the definition of a washed-up hasbeen at this point in her career, she's not even worth bringing into this. Maybe at one point I could see some talent there, but not anymore.

Not a great promo, but no one in this family seems the least bit interesting to me. I also don't think I care for any of the actors so far.

I can't see her on a Bell soap at all.

I think 1998 was generally strong, but by 2000 there was definitely something off about the show. It wasn't the same show, if that makes sense. Alden's later solo work was a bit of a mixed bag that only now looks superior in retrospect given what the show has been reduced to over the past 10 years. She's still superior to everyone who came after her, and I guess you can say many of us took her for granted at the time because she wasn't Bill Bell.

That was what, almost 3 years ago? It's a totally different climate now, she just hasn't kept up a consistent enough profile for the general audience or radio to care. You can do constant promotion and be on every talk show, but it doesn't mean that's going to sell your album. Lady Gaga is finding that out the hard way. There needs to be some type of positive buzz and momentum to sell your product, and obviously the singles/album have to be at least half-way decent. Neither she nor Britney really has any of this at the moment. Granted, Gaga isn't flopping as badly as Britney is, but still under-performing and making her label lose money on the album nonetheless.

Janine's exit is definitely going to leave a big hole. She's carried huge parts of the show over the past few years, and was one of the highlights in an otherwise troublesome era for the show. I hope Charlie Brooks comes back after a two year break... New Year's Ever Trailer:
