Reunion is sure an awesome thing. Due to the busy schedules, we seldom find time to get together with old buddies. But now that everyone was confined to their homes, people are now getting together, at least virtually. This case is no exception for the celebs either. Recently, Melrose Place cast was reunited virtually almost after a decade.
Previously, the cast members from throwback shows like The Goonies and Dallas have got together. So, Melrose Place cast has become the latest to make it on to this club.
Reconvened for a greater cause
It isn’t just an emotional reconciliation of classic TV show cast, but it instead holds a more prominent cause behind it. Marcia Cross (Kimberly Shaw), Heather Locklear (Amanda Woodward), Andrew Shue (Billy Campbell), joined together by other casts in support of the Actors fundraising event. Stars in the House’ Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley hosted this event.
Loads of fun
After this long gap, the stars had fun discussing a lot of exciting stuff regarding behind-the-scenes secrets of their show about young singles all living in one Los Angeles apartment building.
The show which was initially aired in 1992, continued till 1999. The show’s storylines were a bit confusing for everyone then, but its the way everyone loved it.
The actors from the show revealed that they, too, had their concerns while filming the show.
Grant Show, who played Jake Hanson in the series, said that his character’s relation with Kelly Taylor played by Jennie Garth feels awkward, even though their relationship was the foundation for the show.
They even admitted that the fast pace of the story left them confused sometimes. Thorne-Smith said she got so confused by Jo’s custody trial storyline that she had to call Zuniga to get clarity.
Leighton, who portrayed Sydney Andrews said that she hated filming in the series’ famous pool and called it “gross”.
Still, the actors well remember their time on the drama. Cross even said her character’s journey is a reflection of her own in some ways.
Speaking of reboots, Locklear, who starred in a short spin-off of the series in 2009, hinted that she wasn’t done with her character just yet and added that she loves to reprise as Amanda again.
Fan-Magnet event
It was sure a treat for fans, as it’s been a long time since the former costars were together. Fans seem to have loved the cast’s reunion. They expressed rejoice via tweets.
