Heather Locklear Films Her First Scenes For ‘Melrose Place’
Last week we learned the amazing news that Heather Locklear has decided to FINALLY sign on and reprise her role as Amanda Woodward on the new version of Melrose Place and today we get our FIRST LOOK at Heather as Amanda on the MP set yesterday afternoon. Fans of the original Melrose Place and the Amanda Woodward character alike will be THRILLED to see that she is wearing a trademark micro-miniskirt on her first day back on set:

Like an Applebee’s dinner entree, The CW’s Melrose Place reboot is dripping with cheese, not to mention guilt-inducingly addictive. And while I’d rank the show’s breakout character, Katie Cassidy’s Ella Simms, as prime-time’s reigning head-bitch-in-heels — last night’s “Don’t flatter yourself, David: I always have a good time” was a howl-and-repeat zinger — I’m pretty stoked that Heather Locklear’s Amanda Woodward will soon be in the mix to stir up trouble and (hopefully) boost ratings. After all, Ella-vs.Amanda > Ella-vs.Snoozy-Jane, no? To that end, Locklear was back on the set of Melrose — and back in Amanda’s signature short skirt — for her first day of shooting yesterday, as the accompanying photos prove. Locklear is scheduled to make the first of her multiple appearances starting with the show’s Nov. 17 episode, and I’m curious, if her presence will make you more likely to watch Melrose?
OMGOMGOMG … see, I already love the new Melrose Place so the addition of Amanda Woodward is just TOO MUCH. I LOVED her bitchtastic character on the show the first time around, I can’t wait to see her back in action on the new version of MP. The only thing that could make Amanda’s return to Melrose even better would be if Allison Parker (played by Courtney Thorne-Smith) came back as well so that she could lie down in front of the Melrose Place apartment complex so Amanda can wipe her razor sharp stiletto shoes on Allison’s prostrate body as she makes her grand entrance on the show. Can someone make that happen, please?

WOW! She looks really good.

She better be billed in every single episode as ‘Extra Special Guest Star’.

They should slowly bring the old cast back and phase out the new one..Then the show would work.. ;)

How old is she? She looks damn good.

She’s beautiful! And Locklear’s had such an amazing tv career, a great working actor. It’s a pleasure to see her working–and she looks happy!

she looks great, I just hope she can save this sinking ship of a show. I’m liking it less and less, these new characters are so unlikeable. Ashley Simpson acts so stupid, her crazy just comes off as bad acting and the Lauren storyline is going nowhere. Even Jane’s return sucked b/c she came back as a soulless bitch. I like when Jane has a backbone but not when shes a total beyatch.

I just want to know how they are going to bring her back! Her and Peter were presumed dead! And are they going to bring Peter back now?
