The casting of


Laura Leighton as Sophie in season 9 is so off. She is suppose to have this power to attract men and even to have David kinda cross Steve and Steve is infatuated with her but I can't understand why. I don't think she is ugly but she looks at least a decade older than the rest of the cast in a haggard way and she is skelator skinny. Again, I don't think she's ugly but, to be cast as this type of role she just isn't believable.

There's also the fact that in a former life, Sophie was a popular main character on the spin-off Melrose Place for four seasons.

I was gonna say... so I wonder if the Melrose Place universe loaned her out for this. Sophie in the MP show was a major slut and a conniving bitch.


I am really glad Jake got the spin off show cause I am really starting to like MP.



Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.

Where's Sophie?

That's the entire show really. Kind of like expecting everyone to believe Andrea was only 19 when she was in her early 30's and Dylan was underage as well when he was getting into bars and looked near 30 as well. It was asinine to expect anybody to believe otherwise.

She should have been played by someone like Krista Allen
