Gird Your Loins!

It was the headline The CW had been dying to write: “The bitch is back!”

The network confirmed today that Heather Locklear will appear as Amanda Woodward on its struggling-ish reboot of Melrose Place on Nov. 17.


“We’re ecstatic to have the chance to bring her back to Melrose Place,” said executive producers Todd Slavkin and Darren Swimmer.

“Heather’s involvement in the show is something we’ve been working on for some time as we couldn’t imagine creating and producing this show without [her] iconic character’s inclusion.”

Locklear joined the original Melrose Place toward the end of its first season as a “special guest star,” a.k.a. a last-ditch effort to hike up the ratings (surely her hiked-up hemlines had something to do with that).

Since the actress still looks quite banging, something tells me this will be a case of a little bit of history repeated.

Update: Word on the street is Heather Locklear will play Ella’s (Katie Cassidy) boss at the PR firm where she works.

I can’t wait to see Amanda school that little wannabitch but good.
