Designing Women: Lessons from the feud
In my gushing coverage of the "Designing Women" reunion last month, I basically glossed over all the ugliness that resulted in Delta Burke being fired from the show after the fifth season. It made the cover of People magazine even back in 1991 but I was so swept up in all the love and bygones that it didn't seem necessary to rehash all of that.
But in today's edition of USA Today, writer William Keck does a piece that rehashes ALL OF IT. So, I share it with you and the good part is, there is a happy ending.

And here is my DAILY NEWS piece that previewed the reunion which included interviews with Dixie Carter and series creator Linda Bloddworth-Thomason.
Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
