Tonight is the night that Melrose Place, the most talked about show of the new season is going to premiere at 9p. The CW version of the hit ’90s show is nothing like the one you knew on Fox. Although there are a few familiar faces like Thomas Calabro and Laura Leighton on tonight’s show, even they are not like the Michael Mancini and Sydney Andrews we knew back in the day. They are so much better in a bad way!
So who has moved in to the hottest complex on TV since they moved out? Well Sydney moved back in to become the landlord, that is until her death. The who killed her storyline and how everyone in the building is associated with her will play out for most of the season. Now back to the new residents, there is Katie Cassidy, who plays junior entertainment publicist, Ella Simms, she will do anything for her clients and do anything and anyone to get them and I do mean anyone. Shaun Sipos, plays Michael Mancini’s son, David Breck and he had an affair with his ex-stepmother Sydney. BTW he is the first one accused of her murder and I am sure he won’t be the last. Colin Egglesfield plays a chef and I think his character Auggie Kirkpatrick is going to heat up this show. He is already heating up my TV screen. He is not the only one, Michael Rady who plays aspiring filmmaker Jonah Miller is my favorite one on the show. Too bad he gets engaged during the season premiere to Riley Richmond played by Jessica Lucas and she hinted to me at the Melrose Place premiere that their engagement might not last??? Stephanie Jacobsen plays a doctor who loses her financial means to pay for medical school and tries out the oldest profession to pay those bills. Lastly there is Violet Foster played by Ashlee Simpson who was the last person to move in to Melrose Place and the first one to find the dead Sydney Andrews.
Just from the description of the residents you can tell this is not the Melrose Place you knew, it is so much better! So why not move in to Melrose Place tonight on The CW at 9p for a show that is not only the most talked about new show of the season…it will also be the most talked about show for the season!!!
