Shue Knows Melrose Ain't His Place Anymore

Filed under: TV News > Melrose Place

Unlike other celebrities that have embraced the remakes of their 90s TV hits, Andrew Shue has no desire to return to the place that started his career: Melrose Place.

In a new interview, Shue admits there's no way he would be making an appearance in the show revamp as the adorable Billy Campbell: “I thought for a while, ‘Yeah, it’s great.’ But now I think any great show that had its run and had its place in pop culture should only have one run. Melrose Place was a great show in its time, and if I were calling the shots, I would say don’t bring it back. Leave it as it was at its time. That’s the way it should be.”

No luck with that, not after the success of 90210.

But don't feel so blue Melrose fans. Remember that you will still get to see some familiar faces. So far Laura Leighton and Thomas Calabro will be making appearances alongside the new cast.

And, of course, some people are just desperate to get on the show. See Lisa Rinna above. She went around El Lay with a petitions and her washboard sign trying to get on the show.

Sad.

      So it's ok to get a petition signed and walk around with signs around your neck and in the air when it comes to getting laws changed but not ok when you are trying to get work? You are such a petty person Perez…please get over yourself honey because no one else is trippin' bout it but you.

    8. 8

      why do they have to ruin another show? i doubt it'll have as much success as the new 90210 (which also sucks hardcore).



    9. 9

      Lisa is so pathetic, at least Andrew has class.



    10. 10

      He's still cute. Too bad he was a whinny, little bitch on the show.

      Melrose was an awesome soap-series back then, but i'm not sure if i'd had any interest in watching a new version of it…



    13. 13

      Lisa Rinna is almost as desparate as Jennifer Love Hewitt, and I didn't think ANYONE was that desparate. It's embarrassing!

      Re: DoctorPS – How is JLH desperate..?



    15. 15

      again with the "El Lay"? I was hoping you were over that one already.



    16. 16

      washboard?
      If you had an editor, you'd know that it should be a sandwich board.



    17. 17

      .
      Andrew Shue makes a lot of sense .. he's so right.
      (Has he had an acting job since Melrose Place?)



    18. 18

      the new 90210 is awful because of Shenae Grimes, terrible actress.
      I don't get why Sydney Andrews is coming back. Didn't she die when she got married to that guy from baywatch?



    19. 19

      HE'S SEXY STILL…..HE WAS MY FAV



    20. 20

      Please, some one ANY ONE from WB, give Lisa Rinna a freaking job!
      This was I don't have to keep watching her desperation!
      It's pretty pathetic that she's resorted to holding signs up for people to "honk" if they want her back on TV!

      Good god, Lindsay Lohan hasn't even done that one yet, and her star is a millisecond away from being extinguished, yet she STILL in not nearly pathetic enough to to something so embarassing just for some to one notice her again!
      Was lisa rinna hoping a WB exec would be driving by and see her sign a go " oh wow , look at her determination, we have to giver a job now!



    21. 21

      So Last plea from me:

      WB, or any other network or straight to video production company HIRE LISA RINNA, I beg of you!
      Give her a God Damn job so she will fuck off for a while and finally stop writing horrid books and making embarrasing photo op's with her equally pathetic Husband who hasn't worked in atleast 10 years!
      The need money obviously seeing how neither of them have had a pay check in a while, and I think they have Kids to support!
      So hey why not give them both a job? Maybe a russian soap operah is interested in them, then no one whold have to ever hear or see from them in a LONG time!



    22. 22

      washboard sign and petition? pathetic! doesn't she have an agent?



    23. 23

      OMG, I'll always love Andrew Shue. Billy Campbell forever :) Man, he's still looking good :P

      I saw a shot the other day of Harry Hamlin wearing a "Put me back on LA Law" sandwich board. Someone should tell him that they aren't remaking that one.
