MELR0210 #60 - 90210's "Things to Do on a Rainy Day" & Melrose Place's "Duet for One"
Added 2023-04-28 10:00:04 +0000 UTCOn this edition of our 1990s L.A.-set primetime drama re-cap show, the gang welcomes Chelsea Jupin back to the show to chat about two very different eps of Fox Primetime!
On Beverly Hills, 90210, the gang gets wet on "Things to Do on a Rainy Day." Originally airing April 23, 1992, this episode is the famous one with the Color Me Bad appearance, which also features Donna finding out her mother is having a torrid affair, the guys hiring an at-home stripper, and Jim & Cindy going to a really boring museum exhibit!
Then over on Melrose Place, things are really starting to come to a boil on "Duet for One." Debuting on December 1, 1993, this episode has Billy and Alison finally breaking up over billionaire Steve, Sydney taking Lauren up on her salacious job offer, Michael being a real piece of shit and tricking Jane into letting him move back in, Jake getting ready to assist the FBI in Palmer's downfall while still wanting to sleep with Amanda, and the most earth-shifting development yet: Katya's mother falls ill and Katya has to rush back to Russia to help her family!
MELR0210 is a WHM podcast where the guys blissfully stroll through the Beverly Hills, 90210 and Melrose Place timelines. The TV episodes covered will run in broadcast order, but they may skip duller 'sodes in order to keep the focus on the nitty, the gritty, and the downright bizarre. Thanks so much for continuing to support the WHM Patreon!

2023-04-30 04:20:38 +0000 UTCThe Whisky seems like an awfully small venue for a group as big and mainstream as Color Me Bad was at the time. The Whisky only fits a few hundred people and it’s really tiny inside. If they’re big enough to be staying on the fancy penthouse carded floor of a hotel I’d think they’d be performing at a much larger venue in LA.

2023-04-29 15:52:45 +0000 UTCDespite living through this era of music television I had to double check on the internet to make sure that “I Adore Mi Amor” wasn’t the name of the fake song Rex Manning is promoting in Empire Records

2023-04-29 15:00:42 +0000 UTCYou can find the performance in the Peach Pit And Kelly hanging in the hotel room on YouTube. No idea about the other part. I couldn't search Pluto TV, although I tried.
