The CW is forever young.  Their characters don’t pay bills and rent apartments.  But I digress…

Last night’s episode, Episode 6 “Shoreline” received a 1.0/2 rating.  That’s not A18-49 – THAT’S TOTAL HHs.  It’s over.  Air repeats of Roswell or Felicity.  Show Color Bars.  Show anything.  But stop showing Melrose Place.  It’s not easy to get that small of an audience.  A show really has to work hard at NOT connecting with viewers to get that low of a rating.

You pulled the trigger at the right time on The Beautiful Life:TBL, it’s time for the characters of Melrose Place to strap on the mini-dresses, stick their feet in cement and jump into the pool.
