EW Reunites "Melrose Place" Cast for Soap's 20th Anniversary -- VIDEO
by EW Staff
10/15/12

With ’90s nostalgia all the rage, there’s no time like the present for a "Melrose Place" reunion. Twenty years after the show’s soapy launch, nine of the show’s cast members — ranging from Heather Locklear and Marcia Cross to Doug Savant and Josie Bissett — recently got back together for EW’s Reunions Issue.

Cameras for ABC’s "Good Morning America" were also there, to chronicle the dive back into "Melrose Place’s" ever-ridiculous plots and best behind-the-scenes moments.

The fun-and-frothy segment ran on "GMA" this morning, and you can watch it here:

"With ’90s nostalgia all the rage...."

I love that we can say that now. Time flies!

Everyone from Melrose Place looks great and the interview was fun! I wonder why Thomas Calabro didn't want to be part of the reunion.

Same here. To me, Michael and Amanda were the biggest part of the show, so if Heather was there, Thomas should have been as well.

Ironically, Calabro was the only castmember on the show from the beginning, to the end! Its really cool that they were able to assemble the rest of the original, core cast, though!

No appearance by Jack Wagner (Peter Burns) either?

Was he not considered part of the core cast?

Thomas Calabro Regrets Missing "Melrose Place" 2012 EW Reunion
by Raechal Shewfelt
October 7, 2024

"Melrose Place" actor Thomas Calabro appeared on Sunday's episode of "Still the Place", the rewatch podcast hosted by Laura Leighton, Courtney Thorne-Smith, and Daphne Zuniga.

The actor addressed why he wasn't there for the 2012 EW reunion.

"Okay. I'll tell you why I didn't do it... because I didn't think about seeing all you guys together and having that kind of fun. That would have made it attractive to me."

Calabro might not have known the fun that he was missing on that 2012 photo shoot, except his former cast mates gave him a call afterward, as they went to dinner together. That's when he first realized that he'd made a mistake.

"I should've gone," Calabro remembered telling his wife. "What am I doing?"
