I’ve taken to talking to people the way Amanda Woodward did

I always loved the way Amanda talked to Allison and called her incompetent. I could never get enough of those two bitching at each other.

Neither one of them got Billy in the end.

You haven't, but fun fantasy.

When Melrose Place was good, it was really, really good!

R3 seasons 2 and 3 are required viewing. But it was such a supernova. It burned out so fast.

Sometimes at work I ask myself what Angela Channing would do.

Andrew Shue (Billy) is married to Amy Robach of ABC News.

Amanda kicked dick & cunt

Let us know when you get to this level...

I remember Amanda working on a suitcase sized laptop while getting inpatient treatment for chemo. She was intense!

The Gloria's Gowns account was in a perpetual state of jeopardy. Amanda always had to come in to rescue it.

LOVED when Amanda would ditch the '90s power suit and wear a backless sundress to an important client meeting.

Alison was such a mopey and whiney little cunt. I'm glad Amanda didn't indulge her permanent victim status.

These vids bring back middle and high school memories. I was such a gleeful little cunt, even back then 😂

I'm addressing everyone the way Alfre Woodard does:

[quote]Where my Oscar at?

Alison drunk.

"My first instinct was to fire you as well. But on reflection, I realized that was way too easy. No, Alison, I'm going to do to you the way you did me. And when I'm done, all that you'll be left with is that proverbial wish... that you'd never been born!"

I use her line to Alison at the D&D retreat from season 1 - feel free to borrow whatever you can squeeze into.

Damn, OP, now I have fallen down a rabbit hole on YT watching Melrose videos lol

The Amanda vs. Allison, Kimberly vs. Sydney and Brooke dies ones are the best.

Andrew Shue is so terrible. That's one thing about the show that remained consistent lol

Nepotism worked in his favor.

I’ve always loved this SNL skit!

Thanks for posting that r21!

I needed that laugh.

Say what you will about Adam Sandler, but he played Billy and parodied Andrew Shue perfectly!

Amanda was hot stuff.

Didn't Amanda also become the Melrose Place property manager while being an account exec and riding Allison's useless ass and having cancer? What a little workhorse! Make it rain baby!

It's great your role model is a Heather Locklear character on a tacky 90s nighttime soap opera, OP.

Melrose wasn't tacky!!

It was MUST-SEE TV!!!

R18 That's a great episode. I loved when they made Alison and Amanda roleplay as each other.

R21 Heather's SNL episode is legendary. Wish I could find the clip of her as the racist QVC saleswoman. It was so ballsy and it would never happen today.

"The savings are totally unreal. Like the Holocaust."

(QVC phones start ringing off the hook)

Kimberly in the wheelchair

“Melsrose Place is a really good show!”

Give us an example of how you put this approach into practice, OP.

Fave

R28 here you go. Scroll ahead to the 48:32 mark

Sorry forgot the link.

One of my favorite "Amanda" quotes is from when Heather Locklear was hosting SNL during the height of Melrose Place:

"When I'm done with you, the only thing you'll be left with is that proverbial wish that you'd never been born!" (said to Melanie Hutsell, right after slapping her)

Here another clip from Heather's SNL telethon. She could get a job on Fox!
