Melrose Place (2009 TV series)
After successfully relaunching the franchise with "90210" in 2008, there was considerable speculation as to whether The CW planned to create a new version of "Melrose Place" in a similar vein. An article in E! Online reported the possibility of a new version of "Melrose" in September 2008, though The CW declined to confirm any such project at that time. Some weeks later, The CW and CBS Paramount Network Television (successor-in-interest of Spelling Television and therefore the legal rights holders to "Melrose Place") said they were "exploring the possibility" of creating a new version of the series, to potentially debut in the 2009–2010 TV season and targeting their "prized demographic: young women." Original series creator Darren Star also confirmed that discussions had taken place, but nothing was official. On October 31, 2008, "Entertainment Weekly" writer Michael Ausiello reported that "One Tree Hill" creator Mark Schwahn had been approached about running what was being called ""Melrose Place 2.0"". "The Hollywood Reporter" confirmed on December 14, 2008, that Schwahn was in negotiations to write the initial script for the potential series.
