I wish he was here for this era now things are on the up!

What a brilliant character Michael was.

Massively overrated character, weak actor who should get into pantomime. Those early days of Michael/Janine were electric. But by the end? Not at all. Even Charlie Brooks couldn't salvage that fantastic chemistry they once had.

i wish he had ecaped with scarlett, he was massively underused until he got with Janine, wish they hadn't killed him off.

I loved Michael he would be still be a great character now, he left far too early.

I miss his psycho face, he was absolutely talented.

Being him and Sean Slater back!

Dead as a door nail!

I agree both my favourites but it's not going to happen.

I didn't like weirdo Michael. The actor has done better in other things. I agree that him and Janine lost their chemistry. I'm glad he was killed off. As for Janine, I'd love for her to return. She was a fantastic character played by a wonderful actress.

I'm glad he's dead. I never could stand him, especially when he regularly pulled that smug face. I despised the character so much. The acting was pretty weak too.

He was so vampire like!

I loved Michael Moon and I can't see him not being my favourite all time character for quite a while to come. I just wish DTC had came in a bit sooner and convinced him to stick around a while longer

He was just brilliant, best villain the show has had in years. If only he'd been in it for the long haul with Janine.

If he was still around do you think he would have

Raped Linda
Killed Lucy
Slept with Kat again
Bought a club
bumped into vincint.

I doubt they would have bought Dean or Vincent in. When a big character leaves a new one or return is made.

One of my favourite characters of all time.

He was able to read people like a human MRI machine and his scathing wit and scalpel sharp forensic dissections of the people of Walford was a true joy to behold.

And it was all down to SJS and his input to the character - TPTB had planned Michael to be just another ladies man.

He should still be alive.

That's what makes his character sooooo scary and spine-chilling!

Never mind Michael... It's Janine who I thoroughly miss! EastEnders is always lacking something when Ms. Butcher isn't around .

I've always liked Steve as an actor, he was a good character

I absolutely loved Michael Moon, he was a vile but very damaged character. It was a shame that David Essex couldn't hack Eastenders as I think if he'd stayed around maybe he'd not have been killed off. It would have been interesting to see him and the actress who plays Tina in it together too, seeing as they were both in This Life together.

Michael was a legend of his time.

I miss Michael so much, it is bloody criminal that he was killed off!

Michael Moon: One of the very best characters EE has ever had. My fave. Such a huge loss, having him killed off. A real waste.

Overated.

Mixed reviews!
