Melrose Place hit the small screen in 1992, featuring a dramatically enmeshed group of
beautiful people who lived in an apartment complex at the now-famous L.A. address.
The 90210 spin-off was nominated for five Golden Globes in its seven season run and
was revived in 2009 with a new cast for one season and plenty of cameos from the original
residents.
So what does the cast of Melrose Place look like these days?
Heather Locklear
After the Melrose series finale in 1999, Locklear moved on to a three season run on Spin City.
The actress has gone through rehab numerous times, and was arrested in 2010 for involvement
in a hit-and-run.
Nevertheless, she's continued to work steadily, appearing on Hot in Cleveland, Franklin & Bash,
Fresh Off the Boat, and in 2016 on TLC's Too Close to Home.
In 2009, Locklear was called back to Melrose Place for the show's revival, where she reprised
her role as Amanda Woodward.
Thomas Calabro
Dr. Michael Mancini was the only character to last the entire run of Melrose Place.
After the show ended, Calabro had roles on dramas such as Castle, Without a Trace, and
the reboot of Melrose Place, just to name a few.
Josie Bissett
As Jane Mancini, Bissett appeared in 172 episodes of Melrose Place, occasionally alongside her
then-husband Rob Estes.
Post-Melrose, Bissett landed roles in several TV movies, as well as on ABC Family's The
Secret Life of the American Teenager, where she spent five seasons.
Bissett has also become a successful children's book author.
In June 2015, Bissett's Seattle home was destroyed in a fire, an experience she recounted on
an episode of Oprah's Where Are They Now?
Courtney Thorne-Smith
Thorne-Smith played Allison Parker, a Midwestern transplant with a serious penchant for drama.
The actress then moved to another hit show, Ally McBeal, then spent five years on According
to Jim, and joined the cast of Two and a Half Men in 2010, a role she held for six seasons.
Vanessa Williams
Rhonda Blair was written off of Melrose Place after only one season.
Actress Vanessa Williams didn't suffer, though; she was nominated for an NAACP Image Award
in 1997 for her role as Dr. Grace Carr on Chicago Hope, and later won for her role in
Showtime's Soul Food.
Williams appeared on several shows before landing the role of Francine West on The CW's
The Flash in 2015.
In 2016, Williams joined the cast of Days of Our Lives as Dr. Valerie Grant.
Andrew Shue
After playing Billy Campbell for six years, Andrew Shue became an internet mogul as one
of the creators of CafeMom, an online hub for all things parenting.
He also co-created Do Something, an organization aimed at motivating young people to take action
through community service.
Grant Show
It was Show's character, Jake Hanson, who started it all, as the bad-boy carpenter who
helped Jackie Taylor and Mel Silver prepare for their wedding on Beverly Hills, 90210,
ultimately becoming involved with Kelly Taylor.
Hanson's character was spun-off of 90210, and right onto Melrose Place.
In 2017, it was announced that Show would return to the soap world as Blake Carrington
in The CW's reboot of Dynasty.
Kristin Davis
Before she was Charlotte York on Sex and the City, Kristin Davis played the pregnancy-faking
Brooke Armstrong on Melrose Place.
In addition to the HBO hit, Davis was the voice of Miss Spider on the cartoon series
Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends, and in 2014, played Ginny on CBS's Bad Teacher.
Laura Leighton
Melrose mainstay Laura Leighton played Sydney Andrews on both the original Melrose Place
and the reprise in 2009.
Leighton, who is married to fellow Melrose alum Doug Savant, also appeared on Skin, Tru
Calling, Law and Order: SVU, CSI: Miami, and more, before landing the role of Ashley on
Pretty Little Liars in 2010.
Doug Savant
Matt Fielding, Savant's Melrose Place character, was at the forefront of openly gay characters
being portrayed on television.
After leaving Melrose in 1997, Savant's next major role was as Craig Phillips on 24, before
joining the cast of Desperate Housewives in 2004, alongside Melrose alum Marcia Cross.
Jack Wagner
Soap opera veteran Jack Wagner played Dr. Peter Burns on Melrose Place.
After the show's finale, Wagner continued acting on daytime TV and reprised his long-running
role as Frisco Jones on General Hospital in 2013.
Rob Estes
On Melrose Place, Estes played Kyle McBride, a role he held from 1996 until the show's
end.
Estes then had recurring roles on CSI: Miami, and Women's Murder Club before returning to
the Spelling franchise to play Harry Wilson on the remake of Beverly Hills, 90210 in 2008.
Lisa Rinna
Before she was at the center of drama on the The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Lisa
Rinna played Taylor McBride on Melrose Place.
Since then, Rinna has popped up everywhere, including Dancing with the Stars, Days of
Our Lives, Entourage, and even QVC, where she has her own clothing collection.
Marcia Cross
Fans of Melrose Place certainly remember the scene in which Cross's character, Dr. Kimberly
Shaw, pulls off her wig, revealing an intense scar.
After Melrose, Cross guest-starred on basically every relevant television program at the time
— including Seinfeld, Boy Meets World, and Ally McBeal — before landing the role of
Bree in eight seasons of ABC's Desperate Housewives.
Kelly Rutherford
Rutherford's Megan Lewis materialized on Melrose Place in 1996.
Post-Melrose, Rutherford had recurring roles on several shows before landing the role of
Lily on Gossip Girl.
Her recent TV appearances have included Reckless, Quantico, and Jane the Virgin.
Daphne Zuniga
Zuniga's Jo Reynolds lived on Melrose Place from 1992 until 1996.
Zuniga later reunited with Melrose co-star Grant Show on the ABC series Beautiful People,
and was in numerous TV movies before joining the cast of One Tree Hill in 2008.
