Ashlee Simpson is filming the pilot for Melrose Place 2.0 and she brought her little cutie Bronx with her! Is it just me or she dressing like in something Syndey would wear back on Melrose Place 1.0?

Melrose Place is shooting its pilot for The CW and look who is back? Thomas Calabro aka Michaek Mancini looks as good as he did when he did when it was Fox! I really hope that The CW picks up the pilot for next season and cancel 90210. Well at least they fire the new show runner who is destroying the show an episode at a time.
90210 is back tonight on The CW at 9p with a new boss and this is not the same show it was when it left. Rebecca Rand Kirshner Sinclair who worked on Gilmore Girls is changing things up, and let’s say this is not like Gilmore Girls or 90210 in any form of the way. Annie has become whiny and desperate, Silver has gone psycho crazy and Naomi is into drag racing with Liam. Seriously besides TV shows, is drag racing even relevant anymore? It is not like this ’60s. When it comes to Silver, I hate hate hate the storyline they have now given her, so if that is what she thinks will keep viewers she is majorly mistaken. When it comes to Annie, I thought Shenae was going to be a star when the show was announced but now the way her character is going I no longer feel that way. In fact I am not sure I am feeling the show anymore. I already watch one show on The CW that has gotten beyond depressing and crazy, but unlike 90210 I have years invested in One Tree Hill.
Rebecca said she wants the show to be like more like Gossip Girl in Los Angeles, but to me it felt more like a bad teenage horror movie.
Watch the show tonight on The CW at 9p and tell me if you feel the same way I do.
There is a new chief (Kirshner Sinclair) in the 90210 zip and she making some changes according to EW’s Michael Ausiello.
The writer-producer also plans to rely less on 90210 vets such as Jennie Garth, Shannen Doherty, and Tori Spelling to boost ratings. “The show tried to be a lot of things to a lot of people in its first season,” she conceded. “I think the center lies with the generation of kids that are in high school now. I’m not interested in casting people for stunt value.
Tori, Shannen and Jennie won’t be the only ones missing next season, so will Dustin Milligan who plays Ethan. I guess if you are girlfriendless on the show, you are no longer needed. And when it comes to the alumni, I think it is a big mistake she is getting rid of their guest appearance. Shannen has been the best part of the show, after AnnaLynne McCord of course.
Tomorrow I will talk more about the changes this new person has made to the show, and so far I can’t say I like them.
When the rumors started that The CW was considering doing an updated version of Melrose Place, I thought it was too soon after bringing back 90210. Then came word that they cast Mischa Barton for the pilot, and I could deal with one annoying paparazzi darling on the show. That was until Michael Ausiello reported that they also cast new mom Ashlee Simpson to the show.
The onetime 7th Heaven star will play small-town girl Violet, a character whose disarming naiveté masks the calculating, shrewd sex kitten within.
With the casting of both Mischa and Ashlee, I wonder if The CW really wants to pick up the show? Which I wouldn't mind if that meant Privileged would get a second season because I would rather see that on the tube in the fall.
I wonder who else they are considering? Lindsay Lohan? Kim Kardashian? Brody Jenner? Jesse Metcalfe?
