Three episodes. 0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:01.120 That's the episodes that you guys are Wait, what is 0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:03.160 our mashup name? There has to be a mashup name. 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:10.679 So there's little mel mel No. I did write this 0:02:11.639 --> 0:02:18.840 nine oh two one spin off one spin off groundbreaking, 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:21.720 I'm that's I wish I could say I loved it. 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:30.600 But what about place? Okay, no place, Nino Place, Nino 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:36.080 two one? Does anybody wear a shirt on this show? So, 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:38.920 oh my gosh, this is why she loved the show, 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.280 you guys, This is why she she ditched Beverly Hills 0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:46.320 like a hot potato and switched gears and now and 0:02:46.360 --> 0:02:50.600 it became a Melrose placer. In fact, though, I go 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.880 back to my college days and we watched both. So 0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:58.280 this premiered in the summer and I started college like 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:01.720 literally one month later, and we watched the boat because 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.280 you had the pre and the post and you were 0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:07.079 right in between. So you had high school and then 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:09.600 like us, and then you were right there, and then 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:16.720 it's after college, real life with less fashion, oh well, 0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:21.880 less shirts, less clothing. We're talking about season one, episode 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:29.119 one of Melrose Place, you guys had aired, and what's 0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:31.760 a little synopsis of it? My god, get into my page. 0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:35.600 Hold on, wait, I just want you to know I 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:38.880 have salsa under my nails. Guys, I wish you all 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:40.680 would have been here. Oh my god, you would have 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.400 put that out and or don't touch Dave because Jenny 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:51.040 was trying to eat lunch before we started build things everywhere. Yeah, 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:53.200 but what happened? I picked it up up the floor 0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:55.840 and ate it anyway because she was resourceful. Yeah, she 0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.840 doesn't waste stuffy. Thank god, my house is clean. Sorry. Go. 0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:03.520 Synopsis is at four six one six Melrose Place. Let's 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:07.280 look that up? Does that exist? A garden apartment complex 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:10.480 in Los Angeles. A group of eight twenties something. People 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.360 try to get by in life anyway they can. Alison 0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.080 Barker looks for a new roommate after her previous one 0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:18.120 leaves are in the dead of night without money for 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:21.279 the rent. Are you ready for my first question for 0:04:21.320 --> 0:04:25.920 you guys? Right off the top right from the credits 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:31.560 credits in alphabetical order, Tell me about that, like tell 0:04:31.560 --> 0:04:33.880 me about that versus nine O two and oh. Like 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.520 for us regular people, what would that mean that these 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:39.800 credits were an alphabetical order, that they did it right? 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:45.280 Like usually usually that happens right when when there's an 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:49.760 ensemble cast and everybody's parts are start out very equal, 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:55.400 so and nobody wants to give anybody, you know, hierarchy 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:59.280 or special treatment, so they do it alphabetically and then 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:01.040 no one can complain, don't argue about it. How was 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:04.520 nine O two one oh done? Not that way clearly, 0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:07.000 but b H nine two one oh we went in 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:10.400 alphabetical order because you can imagine that that would have 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:14.919 been you know, like I said, you know what that 0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:18.560 this this is like TV gold for garth, not for spelling. 0:05:19.600 --> 0:05:25.880 Last iron Iron always gets boned on that one with 0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:31.040 zerring of it all on on nine O two one oh. 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:33.719 Was there somebody on the top of the call sheet 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:37.320 as they say, yeah, because it was about Brenda and 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:39.600 Brandon when the show started, who was on their one 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:42.840 and two one? Isn't it Brandon? And then Brenda? That 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:46.920 would be Jason Priestley And yes it was Jason. Then 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:50.599 Shannon it should have been Shin And then Jason asked 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:56.480 me why because female? Yeah, ladies first, Yeah, you know what, 0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.560 You're right? Okay, okay, I'll go with that. I'll go 0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:01.040 with that. I want it. I want that like chivalry. 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:02.800 When I want it, and then when I don't, I 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:08.440 don't ya. And Jenny was number three. But little fun fact, 0:06:08.720 --> 0:06:12.120 as we know people left, Jen became number one. After 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:15.760 a while, we all got we all got pushed up 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:19.080 to I was going to ask that if there was 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:22.040 movement over the over the years. Yeah, if you left, 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:27.680 you took that space and you claimed it fast. So 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:29.360 I know, and I know we don't see it yet, 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:32.920 but hopefully most people have seen Melrose Place. Heather Lockler, 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:38.719 once she joined, became special guest star for six seven years, 0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:43.359 however long it ran, which is so that that's a 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:46.920 special that's special treatment. Like when you see a cast 0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:50.520 and there's some confusion because they've already started and someone's 0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:53.119 like number one, number two, So you can't just shove 0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:55.520 someone in because it'll freak people out, and they have 0:06:55.560 --> 0:06:58.760 a contract. I think you do like and Special Guest 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:04.080 Star or and or with anything. Isn't that what it 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:07.080 did for us on Melrose Place. On the opening credits 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:12.400 of the first episode of Special Guest Stars for Everything, 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.440 I'm gonna ask the rude question, do it that means 0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:20.400 more money? Would that mean more money for her if 0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:23.600 she was a Special Guest Star? Obviously it's just clouds 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:27.160 like they can't put her first, like I believe Wait, wait, 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.360 I could be totally wrong on this. I believe in 0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:35.080 Dynasty Joan Collins was then does that not correct? Might 0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:38.760 be wrong? Familiar to me that it was? And Joan Collins, 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:40.200 do you know what I mean? Sometimes kind of a 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:42.520 thing like sorry, we have no more money, but we're 0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:45.040 going to give you this title. And if you know, 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:48.600 you know which anybody across America in the world, when 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:51.160 you're watching it, they don't know, they're like, oh, I 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:53.760 guess you're just barely in this, but it's supposed to 0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.040 mean like better than number one? Did you now? I'm 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.880 really being inappropriate, but that's okay. Did you guys ever 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:04.080 think of ban banming banding? Together like the Friends casted 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:09.160 to negotiate all as one or no, no, no, oh 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.800 my gosh, we tried to really yeah, that was later 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.480 later in the in the show, and that that was 0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:20.360 a really a strong attempt by some people to make 0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:26.800 that happen. We did, We really did try. You know what, 0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:32.000 all's fair in love and prime time. So you got it. 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:35.560 You gotta do what you can. But at a certain point, 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:40.199 everyone had different deals because everyone had started different places. 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:46.480 But we at the end we had an it's like 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:51.280 an alliance, it's like big brother. Mhm. So Jennan, iormed 0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:54.120 an alliance so that no one could, like you kind 0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:55.800 of want that cloud, so that no one could like 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.040 come in and just be like, hey I want this 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:00.240 and suddenly like there's a newbie and you've been working 0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:03.480 your ass off for ten years and they're like, so 0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:05.320 this will be my last question about sort of like 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:09.240 the business. But uh, on Melrose Place, if they're all 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:13.640 in alphabetical order, would it be favored nations as they say, 0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.520 which means everyone's getting the same money or not necessarily 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.640 in a situation like this, quite possibly it could have 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:26.840 been favored nations or yeah, because I really felt like 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:29.520 this cast was super balanced, like everybody had. It started 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:34.720 out very like everybody has their storyline, everybody's equal, you 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:38.160 know what, I gotta call it. Courtney Thorne Smith came 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:42.320 into this with a huge resume. She was in features 0:09:42.760 --> 0:09:45.760 like there's no chance that someone who it's their first 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.720 job is getting the same pay as Courtney Thorne Smith, 0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:53.320 who played Allison. In my opinion, I think that's probably 0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:55.440 right because she was coming. She had done Summer School, 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:59.800 that movie. Supposedly, I think Andrew Shoe had never worked. 0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:03.680 I had never gotten a job that makes sense acting jobs. 0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:07.079 So okay, yes, you guys give your thoughts on this 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.480 this Rose Place pilot, because I have I need to 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:12.720 jump in for a second and just be like, I 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.360 don't know. I wasn't that excited to rewatch this, and 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:17.800 at first I was like and then I got so 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:21.040 sucked in. I fell in love with Mallow's Place all 0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.280 over again. I was like, oh my gosh, because now 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:25.760 I'm looking at that from a different perspective, like we're 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:28.840 looking at our show from a different yet. I never 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:31.839 watched it before, and now watching it, the same thing 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:33.360 happened to me. I was like, I don't really want 0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:35.480 to watch Miller's Place, like I just want to stick 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:39.000 with Beverly Hills, not And then I watched it, and 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.920 first of all came a wave of jealousy. I thought, 0:10:41.960 --> 0:10:45.000 to be honest, because their opening credits were super cool 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:48.600 and edgy, and I thought, I want that. I wouldn't. 0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:51.640 I wish our show had had that. You know, it 0:10:51.640 --> 0:10:53.920 seems so much more mature and so have you really 0:10:53.920 --> 0:10:57.200 never seen it? Jenny ever? No, I never. I never 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:00.480 watched Mellorrow's Place. No, and Tori, were you a fan 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:03.199 back in the day. I was a big fan, like 0:11:03.320 --> 0:11:06.440 I to be honest, like that was the show I 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:09.120 probably watched. I watched more than our show, like we 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:10.840 were working on our show. It was our show, but 0:11:10.920 --> 0:11:13.440 Miller's Place. I was like just a legit fan. So 0:11:13.520 --> 0:11:15.400 like in your house growing up, But was it sort 0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:19.600 of something you did to watch your dad's shows? Um, 0:11:19.760 --> 0:11:22.160 we did. We would always watch like the premieres of 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:24.280 his shows. And I usually, like when I lived at 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:28.280 home and everything saw things before they even Yeah, and 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.080 we'll watch Daily's with him. I was fascinated growing up, 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:34.000 like being able to do that. And here the backstory 0:11:34.040 --> 0:11:36.520 of everything I will say on the credits Jenny and 0:11:36.559 --> 0:11:40.600 this one. Uh. I can't remember if Jennie or Tory 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:42.600 thought the credits were cool, which I agree. It's not 0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:49.600 the iconic Melrose Place logo yet. So later we will 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:54.280 see that turquoise circle that became so synonymous with Miller's Place, 0:11:54.320 --> 0:11:58.679 but we don't have that true, just like ours was 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.920 different in the beginning to So, so what did you 0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:04.280 guys think? So you like it? Like I love it? 0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:08.360 So I'm not, you know, I'm obsessed. Yeah, I really 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:10.880 liked it. I was I was sucked in, just like Tori. 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:13.880 I felt like they had a really cool opening credits. 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:17.440 I thought there were sets. I remember filming doing the 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:20.320 doing the show, and I remember thinking how awesome the 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:23.880 whole set was. That they built this entire apartment building 0:12:24.240 --> 0:12:27.480 with a pool into sound stage. Wait where was it? 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:30.080 I never got to film on it. It was in 0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:36.560 Santa Clarita, if I'm not wrong, was like a up there, yeah, 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.640 and it was such a huge, like undertaking. I just 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.120 remember being in awe of that whole set that they 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:44.600 had designed and built and the way it just looked 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.439 like it was old and they, you know, they made 0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:50.800 everything look a little dirty and it was just they 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.920 did it so well that I really did love it. 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.600 So how did they come to you guys to appear 0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:01.400 and Jenny, especially you on three up episodes? How did 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:05.400 they sort of talk to you guys about that, you know, 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:07.520 when you film the wedding stuff with him, that you 0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:09.840 were also going to be on it or not yet. 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:13.520 I don't remember. I don't know, like I cannot remember 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:15.120 that far back. I don't even know that. I I 0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:16.920 didn't even know that I was in three episodes until 0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:22.400 you just told me that, Amy, so apparently that, you know, 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:24.320 I thought maybe they were gonna At the end of 0:13:24.360 --> 0:13:26.320 this episode, I was like, how things are looking good 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:28.959 for Kelly and Jake, and I don't see that going anywhere, 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:30.800 So I thought maybe they weren't going to be on anymore. 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.720 It was dramatic. I'm jumping ahead and we'll go back. 0:13:34.760 --> 0:13:38.360 But Jenny, I really felt like this brought Kelly into 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:43.920 a new realm because it was so your scenes were dramatic. 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:47.080 There was like some heat and there was some just 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:53.520 real like emotion going. I felt like Kelly had to 0:13:53.559 --> 0:13:58.400 grow up real fast to go to Melrose Place. I 0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:01.440 felt like, and even just as an actor, I remember 0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:06.560 feeling pressure to be two no, to do better than 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:09.040 I probably even knew how to do at that time, 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.040 because I was still really green in the business and 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:15.280 I you know, I've only been on nine for two 0:14:15.320 --> 0:14:18.920 seasons now, and to go and do a spin off 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:21.360 and and act around people that were older than me, 0:14:21.440 --> 0:14:24.680 and a lot of them who had, like you said, 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:28.960 like bigger resumes. It had worked more before. I felt 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:31.680 a lot of pressure, I think, and I was kind 0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:34.840 of intimidated. I was kind of intimidated to go in 0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:37.160 on that set and kind of intimidated to work. But 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:40.280 at the same time, oddly like, hey, this is a 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:42.240 spinoff of our show, so kind of like at the 0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:46.000 same it was like a weird ecotomy. It was interesting 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:50.560 because from an outside perspective, I felt like Kelly was 0:14:50.600 --> 0:14:53.320 one of the lead females in this episode, you know 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:57.160 what I mean, which obviously good on them, like to 0:14:57.360 --> 0:15:02.280 establish show that's a hit, like smart to do that, um, 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:05.200 and I thought you were excellent in these scenes and 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:09.040 the scenes in the courtyard. You broke my heart in 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:13.960 such a relatable way. I loved I loved it. I 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:19.400 gotta say, though, I don't feel like Kelly, like I know, 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:22.440 but she did play my best friend on TV for 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:25.360 ten years to Donna, So I just don't feel like 0:15:25.440 --> 0:15:28.000 Kelly would be that needy. Like the fact that she 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:30.320 kept going. I know they needed to do that for story, 0:15:30.640 --> 0:15:33.160 but that bothered me a little bit of me too, 0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:35.800 as you're on school, well your off screen friend, but 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:39.200 your on screen friend as well, and I felt like, 0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:43.160 what why she so, I mean, I get it why 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.160 she was so caught up on Jake, but it did 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:47.880 it felt a little bit out of character for her. 0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:51.040 You're totally right, and yes, she's too badass for this, 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:54.080 even if she felt it, she felt out of her 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:57.280 league a little and like, I don't know, she wanted 0:15:57.320 --> 0:16:00.840 something that she hadn't had yet she's keep going there 0:16:01.200 --> 0:16:03.440 that I mean, I know they have to. I was like, girl, 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.840 back down, like he don't want you, give it a rest, 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:12.720 stop embarrassing yourself, and like, yeah, Kelly's too cool and 0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:14.920 hot to ever embarrass herself. But I like, yeah, I 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:17.400 was on friend alert that I was like, oh my gosh, no, 0:16:17.560 --> 0:16:19.720 like it's too much. She would call just like Donna, 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.480 they wanted you there in the iconic set because that's 0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:28.160 solidified this. Donna knew I was. I had a note 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.200 that was so sweet and like endearing that Donna was like, 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:34.320 and when they were eating outside, you're just you're trying 0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:36.880 to be supportive and but at the same time you 0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:39.440 could tell you were really not feeling good about it. 0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:42.400 I love how they did it that first we meet 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:45.200 some of the characters at Melrose Place, we get introduced 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:48.760 right off the bat, very shirtless to these people, and 0:16:48.800 --> 0:16:51.720 then comes the iconic red BMW. I thought it was 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:54.600 so well done because I was like, oh wow, here 0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:58.920 they come. I know these people, and it just made 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:02.640 it very cohesive and I love You're right. The introductions 0:17:02.760 --> 0:17:05.000 were great. What a great way she has to go. 0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:07.280 I mean, not feasible, like you know, I don't think 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:09.159 you know everybody in your building and go knock on 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.639 everybody's store and asked where your roommate is suddenly, but 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:16.160 like we were introduced to the whole cast through Alison's 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:18.399 eyes and we got to know a little bit about 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:21.320 them in their vibe right away. I felt like this 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:25.720 show is really flushed out, whereas nine when it started, 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:29.320 you were like, Okay, I get it. That's the rich girl, 0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:32.600 that's the cocky rich jock. Like it was not as 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:35.600 flushed out these like I got the characters right away. 0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:38.360 It was really Yeah, I felt I felt like Darren 0:17:38.880 --> 0:17:42.399 brought his a game when he did this pilot, because, 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:45.920 like you said, it's just it's so clear what we're 0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:49.680 about to venture into. Now you know, we're a little different. Bit. 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:55.040 I noticed that Howard Deutsch directed this episode. Who is 0:17:55.160 --> 0:17:59.560 Leah Thompson from Back to the Future's husband and Zoe Deutsch, 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:02.959 who has become such like an up and coming actress. 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:08.119 That's that. Yeah, we love Howie we we Um. Howie 0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:13.320 directed pH A two and with Us and a second 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.560 one right or just to know just one, I mean 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:20.479 just episode two. But we love him so much. I 0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:22.399 was so happy to see his name as the director 0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:37.480 of this episode. Did you right away? Notice Josie Bissits. 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.080 I don't want to say these names wrong, but that 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:44.800 I thought it was her hair. Yes, I wanted that haircut, 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:47.760 and I wanted it then and I want it now. 0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.399 And I turned to my husband last night, I was like, 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:53.919 I really want that haircut. Can I do that? And 0:18:53.960 --> 0:18:58.800 he was like nope. It became kind of iconic hair. 0:18:59.440 --> 0:19:02.640 I mean, she but you know what when you did 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:04.840 your short hair due. That is what you were going for, 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:08.040 because it is kind of reminiscent, like a modern day 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:12.720 like Rosemary's Baby, like Mia Pharaoh. The yeah, mine is 0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:20.199 no ever, So we meet right away, we meet Allison, 0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:23.919 and we meet Matt, and we know Jake, and we 0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:27.800 meet Dr Michael Mancini. You wait, Michael Mancini, you guys, 0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:33.240 um funny little fact. After all the shows were done 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:35.960 and we were just out, thrown out into the real world, 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:39.119 living lives like real people. Um. I went to a 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:42.720 yoga class at Angel City Yoga and Michael Mancini was 0:19:42.760 --> 0:19:48.320 my yoga teacher. Thomas imagine me walking in and Thomas 0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:55.760 Colabro's sitting white wait for it, shirtless leading the yoga classless. 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:59.520 They don't own shirts at Melrose. But he was really 0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:06.679 good at yoga. You guys, what do yoga? Yeah? You 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:12.960 can like remember stand on one hand. Good for him, 0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.159 he's good at that. Did you notice right away that 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:17.639 this show is aged up? I think Tori sort of 0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:22.920 acknowledged it already in this conversation, like you immediately notice, like, okay, 0:20:23.040 --> 0:20:27.879 we are just aged up just enough. It's a little risque, 0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:30.160 a little bit more risque right out of the gate. 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:34.440 As you've pointed out like twenty times already, everybody shirtless 0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:39.200 and all you see at least some skin from each 0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:41.879 of the female co stars as well, like somebody have 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:44.879 no no pants than the other winds are in bikinis. 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:50.760 Absolutely happening. Um a little teddy pajama situation for Josie. 0:20:50.800 --> 0:20:55.120 Everybody had to like bring it right off the bat. 0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:59.080 Did you guys have a favorite? Like once we meet Billy? Also, 0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:04.040 like was there of the guys that you were like, hello, well, 0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:07.880 well I think we know his story story already out 0:21:07.920 --> 0:21:12.680 at herself that she had a huge crush on someone. Yes, Billy, Yes, 0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:19.439 and was adorable. He's so quirky, cute. It reminds me 0:21:19.520 --> 0:21:23.520 of my son Finn, like just like long hair, like 0:21:23.520 --> 0:21:28.560 like he's but slightly weird, just like a little little 0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:32.679 off kilter from everybody. Who are we talking about Andrew? 0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:39.000 Were Billy hair, Billy Billy? And Andrew is very serious 0:21:40.040 --> 0:21:43.320 the character. I immediately did a deep dive on the 0:21:43.359 --> 0:21:46.399 Google and was looking at a hundred pictures of Andrew 0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:54.200 Shoe Now tell he looks so hot. You know he's 0:21:54.280 --> 0:21:57.200 married to Amy Rob His wife is so nice. That's 0:21:57.240 --> 0:22:02.000 a Good Morning America, and he looks better than ever. 0:22:02.480 --> 0:22:06.480 And you, guys, he chose to exit acting to literally 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:11.399 do charity work. Wait for it, guys, guess what I 0:22:11.520 --> 0:22:16.480 learned about him. He did that charity do something and 0:22:16.520 --> 0:22:20.520 then started like some internet companies. And apparently he is 0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:26.960 worth one hundred million dollars. What Tory looks like? Why 0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:33.000 didn't been? Why didn't that work out? Dang it? And 0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:36.639 he wrote away children's book with Amy Roebok about blended family. 0:22:38.680 --> 0:22:43.679 I'm sorry, Tory, I'm sortay. He has three boys and 0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:46.680 she has two girls. I hope I'm not reversing that 0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:51.399 they all get married. And then Amy and Andrew wrote 0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:54.719 a children's book about the blending. But they never had 0:22:54.760 --> 0:22:58.320 a baby together. I think they don't have any babies together. Sure, 0:22:58.359 --> 0:23:00.680 I feel like she was pregnant and lost. Here look 0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:02.879 in my deep dive of research, I didn't see it. 0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:06.520 But it doesn't mean that covered everything. He looked so hot. 0:23:06.720 --> 0:23:08.520 He might look hot, but he was not a very 0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:11.760 good dancer for a ballroom dance teacher. I just want 0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:16.359 to point out, what's that dance studio called? But he's like, 0:23:16.840 --> 0:23:19.080 I don't want to go to it. Arthur Murray. That's 0:23:19.119 --> 0:23:22.400 where he said he was working. I think he said 0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:27.000 he's only one ahead. He's teaching the classes. Basically, why 0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:29.800 did they let this? Because how did you guys let 0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:33.240 me box? I didn't notice him jump on the bed 0:23:33.280 --> 0:23:35.919 with his um dirty converse that I loved, and I 0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:39.080 was just like, oh my, I love you. He went 0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:44.080 for it, which was okay, wait deep diving, I remember, okay, 0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:46.320 So Kelly had a scene where she walks in and 0:23:46.440 --> 0:23:48.320 knocks on Jake's store and then the girl in the 0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:50.879 red bathing suit is by the pool. Yeah, Amy Locane, 0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:54.240 Amy Lokane, and I remember like being like, oh my god, 0:23:54.320 --> 0:23:58.080 she's so beautiful. She's so pretty, and her body and 0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.760 her the bathing suits so beautiful, and I just love 0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:03.439 her accent, like everything about it. I was so like 0:24:03.760 --> 0:24:11.360 into her as that character or Emilkin. I know, I know. So, 0:24:11.359 --> 0:24:14.600 so we're getting ahead, but since we're only watching three episodes, 0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:16.880 we might as well. So she was let go from 0:24:16.880 --> 0:24:21.600 Melrose Place, Amy Locane and Vanessa Williams the other Vanessa 0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:23.879 Williams at the at the end of the first season, 0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:29.560 nor threw why I think it was Amy Lokane was 0:24:29.560 --> 0:24:31.400 only in the pilot. Is that not true? No, she's 0:24:31.440 --> 0:24:34.960 around for a bit and obviously probably your dad and 0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:41.720 Darren realized like, okay, we're we got so kind of 0:24:41.760 --> 0:24:46.760 like Luke Perry. So going into it, I remember my 0:24:46.840 --> 0:24:50.439 dad being super like he loved the cast, but he 0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:54.840
