Members DrewH Posted October 29, 2008 Members Share Posted October 29, 2008 I read somewhere that Star is very interesetd in being part of the new project. That's promising at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 I dont think they realized that Doug Savant's character was killed off as well, so he's in the same boat as the latter 4. But it doesnt matter bc even without Desperate Housewives, I doubt people are just yearning to see more boring Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 I think they should just go with Melrose. I agree with you actually, even thios i dispise Brenda, it could work. and work well. and do nice crossover with 90210. Toups! I posted at another board yesterday that i think Budig would be fab on this!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 I say they have Ryan(90210 teacher) living in MP. That way this spin-off can connect to 90210 in some way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 I agree. They even have Kelly & Him go back to his place and he can be all "I live in Melrose Place" and she be all "OMG! I wonder if Jake is there!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 You know, I really wonder if this would even work. Has The WB/CW ever had a successful drama about 20somethings? I can think of a few that didn't last long...especially "The Mountain" and "Related." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 One Tree Hill seems to be doing well since the flash-forward. This is the first time since s1 and 3 that I actually find the show interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted October 30, 2008 Members Share Posted October 30, 2008 Felicity went into the 20's Smallville ahs gone well into the 20's. I would Angel was the biggest hit of 20 somethings, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted October 31, 2008 Members Share Posted October 31, 2008 I agree. 90210 is just awful. Why ruin MP too?? Stop while your not ahead CW...LOL. 90210 is a huge mess of a show even with SD and JG in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted October 31, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted October 31, 2008 How will it "ruin" MP? The show is over, how can it be ruined? LOL I see nothing wrong with bringing back old shows with new characters. In the future, I would love to see "Friends" again with the kids: Emma, Jack, Erica and Ben - they can call it "Friends and Family". LOL 90210 is not that bad. The show has a lot of bright spots and it will eventually find its groove, I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted October 31, 2008 Members Share Posted October 31, 2008 I don't think a recreation of MP will work as well as a recreation of 90210. MP was a show that became a success for one reason: Heather Locklear. I know everyone has their favorite but the fact is that Locklear MADE that show a hit. Just like Joan Collins MADE Dynasty a hit. Both of those shows owe their success to one actress and one character. MP was more actor driven than 90210 which survived heavy cast turnover, MP didn't really survive it's cast turnovers. Yes the writing was OTT and it was hilarious fun but I think a lot of people ignore the actors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
