The Lowdown
A Melrose revival has felt close for two years, and Zuniga’s candor about corporate deals is refreshing. If anyone can survive Hollywood consolidation, it’s Amanda Woodward.
Key Takeaways
- Locklear, Zuniga, Leighton, Show, Estes and Wagner reunited at 90s Con in Hartford on October 18 (USA Today).
- Zuniga said the 2023 strikes and the Skydance-Paramount deal delayed the revival (USA Today).
- The revival announced in 2024 opens with residents gathering to honor an old friend who dies suddenly (USA Today).
The Story
“If the strike hadn’t happened, and Skydance hadn’t wanted to buy Paramount and CBS Studios, it’d be a done deal right now,” Zuniga said, adding that she, Leighton and Locklear are attached as producers and keep making calls (USA Today).
Show told the crowd a fan’s boyfriend once bit his hand at a nightclub when he introduced himself. He also said his wife, Katherine LaNasa, who appeared in a 1995 Seinfeld episode that references Melrose Place, still hasn’t seen the show (USA Today).
The original series ran from 1992 to 1999. Locklear joined in Season 2, and a CW follow-up was canceled after one season in 2009 (USA Today).
