Melrose Place
Airing on Fox from July 8, 1992 to May 24, 1999, Melrose Place was the second smash in a row from out creator Darren Starr, and the closest we got in the 90’s to the fabulous insanity of Dynasty. After a rough start, in which the show seemed adrift much of the time, Heather Locklear was brought in, and the show found its focus. The opening was typical of the early 90’s, with cinema verite (French for “shaky camera”), and some really unfortunate hairstyles (who the hell did Courtney-Thorne Smith piss off that first season?)
By the fourth season, the show (and opening) had settled in, although Heather was still (and would remain) a “Special Guest Star.”
