Melrose Place 2.0...

With the revamping of a show like 90210..and to have it be such a hit, there's been talk of a Melrose Place 2.0...

I am not really a big fan of Melrose Place; Beverly Hills 90210 you bet, but I only watched MP when the Bevery gang trounced onto their turf. I own the first season of MP, but haven't watched but a few episode yet. 

This was all speculation until...One Tree Hill creator/show runner/writer Mark Schwahn  agree to pen the pilot episode. 

I love "One Tree Hill" I always have. It's been around for 6 years and I think the show only gets better with age. To be completely honest with you, it reminds me of Beverly Hills 90210, the way the characters are progressing and what not. 

A seventh season seems almost imminent, because the ratings have been rather good. Schwahn has it in his WBTV contract to stay as showrunner/exec-producer. 

Austin Nichols Interview...

Austin Nichols was on one of my favorite new shows last year John From Cincinnatti and actually had a guest spot on Friday Night Lights and will actually have a guest spot on One Tree Hill that's going to be an arc of 10 episodes. Check out the interview here.

EDIT:

Austin Nichol's first episode at movie producer interested in Luke's book, "Ravens" was fucking good. He plays a good potentially bad guy.

Nichols lands in "Tree Hill", Robinson gets "Lost"

John From Cincinnati's Austin Nichols is set to join One Tree Hill in what's said to be a "heavy recurring role." Nichols will play a indie-movie producer who is interested in turning Lucas' (Chad Michael-Murray) first novel into a movie. And if there's any OTH storyline brewing here, it's that Nichols' character will share a connection with Peyton (Hilarie Burton).

In LOST news, they've tapped New Amsterdam star Zuleikha Robinson to play an apparent pivotal role "Ilana" in the shows fifth season. If you didn't know already, I lovvvvvvvvvvved New Amsterdam and thought it was a fantastic show.
