The addition of Heather Locklear as Amanda Woodward injected new energy into the show and elevated it to new heights.
In addition to Locklear, the rebooted series will see the return of Laura Leighton and Daphne Zuniga, who played pivotal roles in the original drama. The reboot of 'Melrose Place' aired on The CW from 2009 to 2010, introducing a new generation of viewers to the iconic address and its residents.
