Review of C.P.W.

C.P.W. (1995–1996)
5/10
No wonder they cancelled it...
3 February 2020
The channel clearly didn't know what the show was, or where to take the stories. First, a Melrose Place clone, set in NYC. Which was fine and surprisingly entertaining, even thought they were playing worn out strings. Then, after a revamp in season 2, it lost half of its cast members, and writing skills as well. Which made each twists more tacky, and desperate than the one before (that last one, takes the cake). I would definitely buy the first season, if it was ever to be released on DVD (with Madchen Amick having her own « hot » show these days, this isn't such a stretch) hell, even the complete series set. But I'll keep seeing it as a hit and miss 90s soap, that didn't have the Spelling name attached to it. And maybe that was its biggest problem...
