I'm on the fence about these re-watch podcasts.  I think that I prefer a fan perspective, as the actors sometimes provide a skewed analysis.  There's rarely much BTS gossip that hasn't already been revealed elsewhere, or not revealed because it wasn't very interesting.  And it always smacks of a cash grab.

I remember how obsessed I was with the original Melrose place... This is the show that helped me learn English back when I was a teen. Just playing a scene I am back to being 13-14 and downloading the episodes from some old dusty sites on the internet.

If this show really comes back... with some of the OG cast... it will be a dream come true. Even if it flops. It would still be entertaining.

I have to re-watch too! I don't know how my 29 year old brain will take this show now versus my teenage years. Sadly the quality is not that better than the ones I've seen before on the internet. They should have improved it a bit, it's 2024 for God's sake. But I am up for a rewatch podcast.

I don't know if this exactly answers your question, but I referenced it being a cash grab because they are being paid through I Heart Media.  That doesn't take away from the enjoyment of the podcast, it is just meant to provide context.

Those ladies are smart to launch a rewatch podcast.  To a generation of viewers, MP is like visual comfort food, so they'll likely eat that stuff up.  (I should know: I, myself, can't get enough of "Murder, She Wrote" reruns on PlutoTV and wish certain cast members were still alive to do a podcast of that show, lol).

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
