    I just saw this on Reddit, and I am extremely skeptical, to say the least.

    For one thing, Sydney is dead. *Twice* now. So I don't see how Leighton
    can possibly be involved (in a good way).

    Also, I never really liked Zuniga on Melrose, and oftentimes I only
    tolerated Locklear.

    In short, I don't see how this works. And if they were going to try it,
    they're likely a decade too late...

    Isn't MELROSE PLACE supposed to be about young, hot people all having rotating sex with each other?

    Not about a bunch of 60-year-old women reliving cat fights from 30 years ago.

    Yeah, I'm not sure how they are going to make this work. It certainly
    can't be the same show if it is going to have the same actors as the
    types of stories have to change.

    Neither show is an actual "reboot" - that's just the morons in the
    media having no idea what the term means, so they use it for every
    resurrected show.

    Both of these shows are really sequels / continuations, set some years
    after the original shows.

    Melrose Place new series:
    When one of their dearest friends dies suddenly, the original
    residents of Melrose Place gather to honor the deceased. But
    the pressure cooker of a reunion soon uncovers old traumas,
    rekindles old romances, reignites old resentments, and reveals
    new secrets... throwing our characters into chaotic drama
    that's reminiscent of the past, but with a much more modern
    perspective.

    Heroes new series:
    Titled "Heroes: Eclipsed," it is set years after the events of
    the original superhero series, as new evolved humans are
    discovering their powers.

    I dunno - all three of my children were born after my 30th birthday so
    one can reasonably assume sex was involved...and I certainly thought
    my partner was hot.
