I love the new version of Melrose Place!!! It's fun, hip, sexy, & exciting throughout!!! The new characters are very solid with my favorite is Ella Simms played deliciously by the beautiful & sexy Katie Cassidy. Ella's a tough publicist who gets what she wants at anytime. Katie's a great actress who was awesome in Supernatural & Harper's Island & has great things coming to her. Keep it up Katie!!!!! Recently they let go of 2 regulars: Ashlee Simpson-Wentz & Colin Egglesfield. Ashlee played Violet Foster & Colin played Auggie Kirkpatrick. They're also changing the shift of the show's tone as well. It was dark at first but now they want it to be more lighter. The show got some serious buzz in promoting the show but the ratings have been low throughout which to me is disappointing because it should be seen by a lot more people. So Melrose made several changes hoping the ratings would go up including bringing back Heather Locklear as Amanda Woodward. Heather's return has shaken things up @ Melrose including turning Ella's world upside down. Ella wants to be like Amanda but Amanda wants to show Ella who's boss. It'll be fun between the two & I'm hoping that Ella will hold her ground & stand up to Amanda. I think the changes are gonna help Melrose in the long run for the best. There's talk of Melrose being canceled due to low ratings but I hope it doesn't get canceled because it's getting really good now & this Tuesday's episode should be really good!!! I also like how the new Melrose are bringing back the original characters from the original Melrose. Thomas Calabro, Laura Leighton, Josie Bissett, & Daphne Zuniga returned for stints on the new Melrose along with Heather Locklear. I hope many people can tune in to the show because it awesome & a lot of fun!!! I hope it can get renewed for season 2 & also can get a full order of episodes for season 1(it has 18 episodes on tap for season 1). The show rocks & it needs to be given a chance!!!!! Thanks, Gerald P. Garrow

In all honesty the only reason I started tuning into the CW was because they took a chance and brought Melrose Place back and they brought it back more awesome than ever.I never missed an episode of the original Melrose Place and feel the way the ended the show left their devoted fans in utter disapproval. The new Melrose from day one it air has the original in it's dust it is way better and more entertaining. I hate the fact you fired Ashlee and Colin cause they were my favorite characters on the show. The plot is so well played out. Like I said in all honesty no disrespect to the Cw but if Melrose gets canceled this viewer will no longer watch the station. Please don't cancel the show it's the best thing airing on that station.

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.
