It's been 30 years since Models, Inc. debuted. In honor of that, we are re-releasing our review of each episode, exactly 30 years after it went live. Fair warning - ours was a podcast about Melrose Place. We just followed the spin-off, essentially creating a podcast spinoff of our original podcast. Also, one of the hosts only watched the first and last episode. Enjoy this flashback to a simpler time!

    Finale - Character Tournament

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify Over on the mothership podcast, we have a character tournament each season. This is our way of marking time, and noting which characters we think are the most interesting / saddest / tragic / etc. Of course, when the full podcast ends, we'll have one final tournament bringing them all together. Here, as the last podcast on this feed, we give you the character tournament of Models, Inc.

    29 - Sometimes A Great Commotion

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify Well, everything wraps up and ends. It is a sad, sad say for Teege and Mary, as the Models, Inc. 'Cast comes to its inevitable end. Of course, we knew there was no second season when we started, but it doesn't make it any easier. Grayson's promised hitman arrives, accidentally killing Grayson at the wedding WITH NO VIABLE ESCAPE ROUTE, and chloroforms Carrie to Hell, Baby, Hooker Hell, somewhere in Central America. Sarah's dad comes to town and punches Ben in order to defend Sarah from her addictions. Turns out, he is an alcoholic as well, swearing off the drink the day Sarah was born. Anna is persona non grata in Models, Inc., and falls down the stairs with Cynthia and Julie walking away, leaving her to crawl to a phone on her own. Hillary closes Models, Inc., just in time for Craig to propose to Julie. Like that, the show, and this spin-off podcast, is over.

    28 - Exposure

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify It's almost over - unless someone comes through with the Models, Inc. reboot we've all been hoping for! This is the second to last episode ... and the final one before Mary watches the show again before recording a podcast about it. Does that mean she has been coming to this spin-off unprepared? You decide. Eric leaves his lady for good. Sarah has to turn on Grayson after failing a drug test, stripping with no memory of it, accidentally giving away $40,000 for one dance, and getting fired from her big Ann York campaign. Anna sleeps with the Director of Skin Deep in order to get the role based on Julie. When confronted by her step-sister, she says of course she slept with the Director to get the job - she was playing Julie, after all! Finally, Grayson wins custody of her baby thanks to blackmailing the judge for his "judicial restraint." Then, she loses custody when the judge is re-blackmailed for his "judicial restraint." It all ends next month!

    27 - By Crook or By Hook

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify We're heading headlong into the series finale, and there's just enough time to wrap things up messily. Sarah from Iowa is getting hooked on drugs by Ben, formerly Adam's goon, now Grayson's goon. This will drive Sarah into Hookers, Inc. Carrie is already in Hookers, Inc., having been driven to failure as a waitress by Grayson. She comes in handy when Grayson needs to blackmail a judge. Julie and Anna are heating up, as only step-sisters can. SISTERS! Anna all out kisses Craig in the hot tub, so what exactly is her deal? Finally, as always, the real stories are with Grayson. A power struggle with Hillary is on a slow boil. Custody struggles with Adam over Daniel, including false police reports and ignored restraining orders. Adam says the nanny is a regular "Mary Poppins" before she promptly calls the police. Things are nearing an end, after two and a half years of monthly podcast episodes - there's just two more left!

    26 - Adam's Family Values

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify We're heading for the series finale, and thanks to IMDB's summary of this episode, I am spoiled by one of the main storylines - specifically what Anna is doing here.  No worries though, I won't ruin it for the podcast description, which I assume is read by only a small percentage of people who listen to this. But, Julie's actual sister-friend, Anna (obnoxiously referred to as a step-sister over and over) shows up to get in good with Julie but she is rebuffed by phone, by the hot tub, and in the office.  She is just about to give up when Craig talks Julie into a little bit of forgiveness. Adam and Grayson are doing a baby exchange, when baby falls off of a wagon and cuts his head.  At that moment, Grayson solemnly swears that they must never use Daniel (this baby's name) as a weapon against each other.  Whatever, by the end of the episode, when Adam won't mack up on Grayson, she says that if he leaves, he'll never see Daniel again - either they're one big happy family, or it's his son without a father. Meanwhile, Grayson announces to the camera that Hookers, Inc. has a nice ring to it, and the first girl she's calling in to service is Carrie, who is hard on her luck because she is SO OLD (25?) and didn't save money from when she was young and hot.  Lessons learned.  Next up will most certainly be Sarah, as Grayson has Ben keeping an eye on her, and by "eye" we mean "drugs" and "on" we mean "in" but don't worry, by "her" we meant "her." All this and more as Models, Inc. revs up to shut down ... unless season two is picked up by Netflix sometime soon!

    25 - Really Big Problems

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify Julie is growing and maturing as a person, as evidenced by setting up her boyfriend with a date. Sarah decides to have an abortion, but then avoids a car accident, apparently losing the baby. Cynthia is hospitalized, and has a heart to heart moment with Sarah and she decides she wants to live. As always, the real story is with Grayson, Adam, and Monique.  This is all about paternity, and who is the father.  Surprise, it's Adam. This show is getting so good and we're bummed that we know it's going to end soon.

    24 - Bring The Family

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify Laugh all you want, but this show is getting better and better.  If they had a little more time, this would have had a run as long as Melrose Place. Cynthia's bulimia continues to worsen, causing her boyfriend to yell at her about her sexual assault in a public place and then break up with her at work as she is feeling lightheaded.  So his male feminist card is gone. Julie buys the movie rights to Skin Deep for "a buck and a blow job" (that's our term, not the term on the show) - and she meets a writer who turns out to have missed her long lost love when they were supposed to get married because he never showed up to gate 201, flight 11.  Of course, we aren't dumb so we know where this is going - Craig turns out to have missed HIS long lost love when they were supposed to get married because she never showed up to flight 21, gate 1.  Oh, voice to text in the early 90s caused so much trouble. Sarah, who coined the phrase, "at least you didn't sleep with a priest!" is now pregnant by said priest who is a good guy, as evidenced by the fact that he is white, but plays basketball at night with black kids.  #tiredtrope  Anyway, Sarah can't decide what to do about this darn baby, especially since her career is about to take off and she feels like Cindy Crawford.  Except, with a baby. The story continues with Grayson, who promises she has something on Adam that will make sure he can never be rid of her.  Hijinx ensue as they track each other down, but it turns out that when Grayson left because of drugs, she actually had a BABY - Adam's baby!  Dun dun dun. Who didn't see that coming? Mary, of course.

    23 - Men Don't Leave

    Republished from The Melrose Place 'Cast, available at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Melrose Place Cast on Spotify Either Teege's standards are dropping, or this show is heating up just as it was about to get canceled.  You listen in and decide. Monique is planning to scale back her wedding since Adam spent $5,000,000.00 on his divorce from Grayson to get her out of their lives for good.  (Spoiler alert: it didn't work!)  Grayson is now a co-owner of Models, Inc. and is sending Monique on junk shoots.  Nude modeling, mud baths, etc.  Fun times. Eric is getting out of prostitution. Cynthia is getting into bulimia. Sarah goes to see her ex-boyfriend, Mark the Priest, as he delivers his first mass.  Of course, she ends the episode finding out she's pregnant. Julie and Craig are seesawing back and forth, including Julie going on a date with a football player who is not the one who made Alison cheat on Billy.  Although he probably could have if he wanted. Hillary and Grayson continue to have tension, and Grayson is UP TO SOMETHING.  She mysteriously tells Adam that she has something on him, saying, "You'll never guess what it is but believe me when I play my hand you'll never get rid of me. Adam can't imagine what this could be. Y'all, go find you a copy of Models, Inc., and stick with it, because it's good!
