“They wouldn’t have my character [cutie-pie Billy Campbell] back on the show,” Andrew Shue confided told the New York Daily News at the Do Something Good awards. “My character was born out of the ’90s. It’s a different era now.
“I thought for a while, ‘Yeah, it’s great.’ But now I think any great show that had its run and had its place in pop culture should only have one run. MELROSE PLACE was a great show in its time, and if I were calling the shots, I would say don’t bring it back. Leave it as it was at its time. That’s the way it should be.”

"It's exciting because we don't get to see the next episode. We don't get to read the scripts until we're actually about to shoot it, and everyone is dying to know what's going to happen to their characters, so it's fun. It'll be exciting to play that arc. ... It's got good drama."

INTERVIEW: DAYS' Barry Cutler (ex-Parrot Man)"I very much enjoyed working on DAYS. Most of the people, cast and crew, were very hard-working and supportive. A number of us involved in the storyline of the small town in which my character lived [Aremid] were very disappointed when the storyline was brought to an early conclusion. There had been talk of spinning off [the Aremid characters] into another soap opera. DAYS had jumped up in the ratings, in large part due to our storyline, and the network had thoughts of a spinoff. Unfortunately [that did not happen]."
