1. Melrose Place has been picked up for an additional 5 episodes. Though this is not the full pick up of a back 9, it is still a surprise giving the ratings, but that may have to do with 2 & 3.
2. Heather Locklear is coming back, and not as a guest. Plots will revolve around her as producers hope that she will help the ratings pick up. I may not be able to watch once she arrives, since I have a passionate dislike of her.
3. Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Colin Egglesfield, who play Violet and Auggie, will be leaving the show. I am disappointed Violet is going, because she was fantastic and completely insane, but I'm glad that Egglesfield is out. He may be attractive, but he is the worst actor on television at the moment.
4. By December, the murder mystery will be resolved, and Melrose Place will supposedly become more fun. Will I stick around to see it? I don't know.
I wish that they were getting rid of Riley rather than Violet. It's not that Jessica Lucas, her portrayer, is particularly untalented, but the character just grates on my every nerve. The whole nonsense of her model shot and her posing, and Jo (Daphne Zuniga from the original series)'s yelling at her was equally useless. Thank god Katie Cassidy's Ella was in those scenes to make them tolerable, though I would have rather seen her do something more interesting.
Oh, and Jonah (Michael Rady) and Riley got in another fight, and Jonah found out from Auggie that he and Riley had kissed, so he got pissed off and went to meet up with a hot producer chick. Cause any of us would believe Jonah to be a cheater (well, it was only a business meeting over drinks).
And while we didn't get enough of crazy Violet and too damn much of Auggie, Lauren (Stephanie Jacobsen) and David (Shaun Sipos) were full of sexual tension as Lauren discovered that David is a thief and got all moral on him about it. Right, cause when you are a wh*re, you are only victimizing yourself, so it's okay. Unlike stealing criminals' money.
Not the best episode yet...but I guess I'll stick around until the murder is solved and then pray the show gets cancelled to free up the talented actors for better gigs.
What are your thoughts?
