Melrose Place theme, by Tim Truman

TV Guide Guide To TV: Slinky lingerie, rampant lunatics and love gone very wrong add up to a campy guilty pleasure that's as addictive as the show it was spun off from, 'Beverly Hills, 90210.' 'Melrose' began with self-contained episodes about the Gen-X denizens of a hip L.A. apartment complex, but ratings were limp until executive producer Aaron Spelling spiced things up considerably by bringing Heather Locklear's deliciously wicked, micro-skirted Amanda Woodward to the party. By the end of Season 1 she had stirred up enough trouble to save the series from cancellation, leading to six more years of hook-ups, break-ups, back-stabbing and cliff-hangers, including one twist that threatened to literally send the cast out with a bang. At the end of the fourth season, scarred psycho Kimberly Shaw (a pre-'Desperate Housewives' Marcia Cross) was poised to blow up the complex, but with the Oklahoma City bombing still fresh in viewers' minds, FOX opted to delay the explosion until the fall. It may be the only time 'MP' showed any restraint (if only temporarily), The series had a huge ensemble cast, but throughout its run, Amanda remained the vampish center of attention, and as the melodrama became cheesier, she was put in highly perilous (and implausible) situations. By the time FOX foreclosed on the property, she had survived her abusive ex, a murderous ex-cheerleader and scores of kidnappers, not to mention a two-month bout with Hodgkin's disease. The final episode found her faking her death and fleeing to the tropics with Peter Burns (Jack Wagner), where she no doubt struggled to forget the show's ill-fated off-shoot, 'Models, Inc.' — Damian J. Holbrook
