1. Even if you look stupid while stealing art, I may still want to have sex with you for reasons I can't explain.
2. Having a look of perpetual creepy, vapid psychopath plastered to your face at all times can make you look like a half-decent actress if your role is playing a perpetually creepy and vapid psychopath.
3. Being the best-looking guy on the show won't necessarily keep you there as long as Nick Zano is lurking in the background. And Nick Zano is always lurking in the background.
4. Nothing on Earth is as good without Amanda Woodward. Nothing. #melroseplace
@DahlELama: Sometime in '94 I was at a club (the End Up in SF, maybe) and an Amanda Woodward drag queen was walking around. She looked great. The clothes, hair and make-up were all spot on. I talked to her for a while and when we parted ways she gave me her card: Amanda Woodward, D&D Advertising, with the logo and everything. Amazing. #melroseplace
@DahlELama: Yes, that's what this show needs -- Drag Queen Amanda!
Also, the writers may want to consider picking up some of their own threads. I mean, Jane Mancini happened, yet no mention! In the last episode, we thought Violet would start making Michael's life a living hell, which would've been entertaining to watch --
Yet no mention last night!
These guys also do not understand the concept of the Melrose Cliffhanger. Something shocking and sexy/creepy happens at the end and then we pick it right back up the following week. I swear if they got their cliffhangers right they'd be on the right track. #melroseplace
@DahlELama: I'll look for it in California when I am there next month. I think I saved it with another business card I received in the mid-90s. It was given to me in a dive bar in Sacramento by an older man who seemed insane. It was the shape of a business card, but was on regular paper. On the top, in colored pencil colored bubble letters (each letter a different color) it read: NUMEROLOGY ASTROLOGY TAROT. On the bottom, after the number, it read: CUT THE CRAP, I'M PSYCHIC! Months later this same man became my client when I was a social worker who worked with mentally ill clients. #melroseplace
"When are they going to start realizing this is the old folk's home, and that they should give them a good housewarming!"
Is it just me, or are they kind of throwing the former characters under the bus to prop up the news ones?
I was fine with how they developed Sydney. In the absence of Amanda, it made sense that they turned her into a bitch (when she used to be an airhead).
But Mancini hasn't a cracked single smarmy joke since this thing began. Mancini is meant to be a funny douchebag. not an angry one.
Jane always loses, and they kept that going, but that was the most pathetic I've ever seen her, and she was way better off when the original series ended.
As for Jo, I don't need Ella of all people telling her off. Old Jo would've told Ella to go suck one.
@BowlingForDollars: Well it may continue going, but by all accounts it is going for broke. The introduction of Mme. Woodward will be the ultimate determination of whether it is going to sink or swim, but seeing as Locklear has dated David Spade in the last decade, I don't hold out too much hope. #melroseplace
Do you see anything in the Melrose Place Crystal Ball about Michael unintentionally hiring Lauren? Because my crystal ball is projecting that on the wall of my living room in hi-def.
Also, counting down the days until 11/17, when Amanda Woodward returns. Jo coming back next week is not going to cut it, especially if they just vaporize her a week later like they've apparently done to Jane.
(Is there really someone on the show named Kimber? If so, I'm much less amused and more angry at the blatant thievery from one of the greatest cartoons of all time. If not...Brian more please. Who's Jerrica, Pizzazz and Rio?)
@Brian Moylan: For some reason I seriously cannot explain, her name in my head is Dolly Madison. I don't even know what her name in the show is, because I cannot seem to think of her any other way.
Watching Ashlee slut it up last night made me feel incredibly dirty in a way I did not like, which is weird, because feeling incredibly dirty is exactly why I love Melrose so much in the first place. I still can't tell if she's good or if the fact that she more-than-vaguely resembles a wax bride of Chucky is just working in her favor, but yikes. Sydney may not think she's her spawn, but I sure do!
Also, I've resisted thinking that the guy who plays David is hot for as long as I possibly can, but it's over. I'm going to need to see him wearing less clothing, and soon.
It's just sad, talking about gay icons, the former ex-veep of this US of A don't get more respect. After all, he says, it ain't his fault. See, Dohbya "went soft on him."
@WackoJacko: When I arrive at my family's Christmas shindig and see al the closeted types in their mid-thirties still maintaining bacherlor-hood, a deep voice in my head remarks poignantly, "Like sand through the hour glass, these are the gays of our lives." But no, other than that occasion inside of my head, I don't know anyone who would seriously use that phrase who doesn't write a blog or get featured in one.
Levi, you hunkalicious slab of man-sirloin. You can be my gay icon. I could abstain with you better than Bristol. I'll abstain you all night until you're a steaming plate of sweaty hockey steak.
Can I just say that I enjoy Levi immensely for no other reason than his very existence makes something go all tense and un-winkable in Sarah Palin. He was like hand chosen to ultimately destroy her in a battle of backwoods, moonshine, divinity! . It's like watching lurchery Frankenstein turn on the mad-man who made him. Entertaining!

At this point, how can they not screw up Amanda?
