Melrose Place was a joy to watch and my favorite soap opera in the 90s.
I loved the drama, the comic moments, all the wonderful cast, their mischievous play and their much interesting interactions together.
Among them, Kimberly (Marcia Cross) was my shining star and the first time I got to know her in TV. She was beautiful, devious, psychotic with very believable acting showing a dark past well unfolded and explained in layers in the series storyline, little by little, outlining the craziness she was going through and her drowning in her own madness until that climatic episode. She was one of the pillars of the series.
It wasn't only a meaningless soap opera. The show had heart and soul. It was the guilty pleasure of many in the 90s and the awesome discovery and full enjoyment of many in later years.
IMO, no other SO series succeeded in mimicking the chemistry of its whole cast, while at the same time entertaining viewers with some unique twists and turns encompassed in a bigger plot picture in the span of its 7 seasons. The one coming close, though having a different vibe was Desperate Housewives.
Melrose Place lame reboot in 2008 for 1 season never achieved the magic of the original show and was obligatory cancelled.
Highly recommended to every fan of high-quality SO series aiming to relax, chill, living the lives of their favorite actors and becoming one with them for some moments, even if it's short-lived.
