OK...maybe this is just a huge plot inconsistency, which is not surprising on this show, even though I can't stop watching it...but what the heck happened to Josie Bissett's character, Jane Andrews...formerly Jane Mancini??? She comes in for 1 episode, tells everyone she is the new landlord because she inherited the building from Syd (Ummm...when did Sydney OWN the building...she is the landlord...and who does own it...Michael or Amanda?), moves into Syd's apartment, wreaks havoc on Ella's life all in the span of 1 episode and then was just gone with no mention of her again.
I would be OK with the logic of Oh...she just is out and about or something for the reason she hasn't been seen again...but the very next episode Violet (Ashlee Simpson...RIP on the show and THANK GOD) is rummaging through Sydney's apartment not to mention David and Auggie both making visits back that apartment also.
Plot inconsistency much, CW? I was hoping for at least a catfight with her and her ex-hubby, Michael Mancini.
Does anyone else know if I missed something? Did she say at any point in that episode that she changed her mind? I heard she is filming one more episode for the show but come on...a landlord that no one ever sees in a VERY small apartment complex??? Not likely to say the least and still wouldn't explain how these people are able to rummage through Jane's (Sydney's) apartment after Jane is supposedly living there.
Nice cameo by Jo (Daphne Zuniga) though. I love it when she says "I have a ton of memories from this place...most I would like to forget." LOLOLOLOL Don't get me wrong...I love this show and have watched every episode. That is really bothering me, though, and the fact that they are killing off the hottest guy at Melrose Place, Auggie.
And how did David become Michael's son and who is his mom? Michael didn't have any kids when the show ended or any time during it.

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.

I often close my eyes and shake my head when I hear about Hollywood remaking what seems to be every title that was successful in the past. I never watched the original Melrose Place, but knew who some of the characters were and understood the concept of the show.
When I tuned it to watch this remake I really expected to be disappointed, as I was with the pilot for the 90210 remake. I was actually entertained. Yes, the acting was average and who casted Ashley Simpson? She can't even act.
The story lines seem to conveniently center around sex and some just seem so made up. Writers, you need to think of better twists! Overall, the chemistry between the cast seems to work for me. This show has potential as long as the writers have a plan. Check it out.

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...
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
