Gorgeous, best looking chick on Melrose. She’d could have been a big star if she wasn’t a lousy actress.
I tried as I might to watch “Melrose Place”, I just couldn’t quite get into it. Although it was the first season, which seemed just boring. I preferred the earlier fare of Aaron Spelling, namely “Dynasty” and even the unfairly lambasted “The Colbys.”
I had the similar problem with “BH 90210”, at least in the early seasons. I was 16 when the show premiered in 1990, aimed right at my age group, but I was utterly baffled at these twentysomethings (and in one case, that 30-year old actress who had been playing teens on soaps a decade earlier) ALL playing my age that year. Just couldn’t relate and didn’t know anyone like that.
I didn’t care for the early High School seasons or the initial girls at all (Shannen Doherty was too hard, Jennie Garth was a bitch, Tori was a flake and Gabrielle was too old, boring and plain - and worse, it became readily apparent she aged a decade in just a few years on the show). I liked it better later on, after the 5th/6th season after they had more attractive and interesting girls (Vanessa Marcil, Lindsay Price, Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, et al).
