Melrose Place

First let me say I wasn't expecting too much of this but I was surprised. The storyline was good, the characters are well written, especially the new ones Ella (Katie cassidy) and David (shaun sipos) whom made a very good job playing Michael's rebel son. I was glad to see Sidney and Michael back. I hope the writers always keep this on the right track because it looks promising and I really like this to stick around for a while and at least have a nice closure!

I hope some of the old characters make a comeback, maybe jake or allison, that would be cool. I Know most people wants Amanda to comeback but i don't think that's a good idea since her storyline its perfectly finished and she is unnecessary but if she comes back of course I'm gonna keep watching lol!

the non stop music was a little bit annoying but I will get used to it,

9 out of ten

I really like it. The original was awesome, and this version, although totally different, is just as good. I even like Ashlee. She is getting way too many bad reviews by haters. PLEASE give the show a chance and keep it on the air.

I think the scenes are well shot, and I like that it moves fast. There might be a few too many songs but whatever. I hope they can get some guest stars (real celebs).

I'm excited about seeing Heather Locklear. I hope Sydney is somehow alive because she and Michael were my favorite on the original version. Thank you for bringing it back, CW!

After watching the first 10 minutes of this stink fest all I could think of was the insult to the memory of the true Melrose Place.

The original Melrose Place had mid to late twenty somethings that lived in a realistic-to-their- income complex and had real-life issues carried out in the dramatic fashion of talents such as Heather Locklear. This new show is just another Gossip Girl/The Hills/ The City imitation that is some kind of fantasy world where everyone is 20 years old, an Abercrombie model, rich, and oh-by-the-way wildly successful as an agent/photographer/etc.

The acting is terrible, none of these newbies can barely utter a line with believable deliverance and the sets are over the top decorated and adorned. The script writers also aren't on their way to an Emmy anytime soon, either. I wish Laura Leighton and Thomas Calabro hadn't sullied their acting reputation by getting into bed this bomb.

As a great fan of the original series, I admit that my expectations was a little too high about this remake. Most part of the cast is good, especially Stephanie Jacobsen and Katie Cassidy. But the plots are kinda boring.

The Riley/Jonah couple is almost so annoying as Allison/Billy and Shaun Sipos looks like he's sleeping the whole time. Also at any moment there was that tension, that catfights moments or that great lines that the original Melrose immortalized on TV.

As for Ashlee Simpson... was she on the pilot? I don't even remember of seen her.

I'll keep watching this and hoping that they'll do a lot better in the future.

There was a time where CW cancelled shows, just like that. And when you see old ratings, including those this show got, there's nothing to be ashamed of. And they even complement, the current standards for the network perfectly. Unfortunately as it aired ten years ago, choices needed to be made, and new shows needed to be pushed. So Melrose Place reboot got the boot, when things were starting to get interesting. Just like the original show, it took them several episodes to find its footing. And after the questionable murder/mystery sub-plot was handled, as well as some of the excess baggage cast members (again, just like they did, on the original series) The show was finally getting it right. I'm still bitter CW decided to pull the plug on it, in favor of another « drama » that ultimately flopped the following year. And was really looking forward to crossover episodes between this and 90210. But CEOs clearly did not want the show to succeed, otherwise they would've given it at least one last chance, to prove itself. How low things have gone since, and the so called changes they wanted for the network, made matters worse. And now that CW is the shadow of its former self, and promising shows like these, leave new viewers frustrated with « open door » endings. I can't really feel sympathy for the what the network is going through. Payback's a B...
