They thought it was a fun thing to do.A few weeks before the debut of his first venture into the soap opera business, "Sunset Beach" executive producer Aaron Spelling was discussing the show with an engaging mix of amazement and bemusement.
The producers did name the character Tim Truman after me. I never found out why, but I heard rumors he threatened to leave the show unless he got his theme put in. Something happened behind the scenes and my theme was replaced by his in year two. Dominic Messinger scored the show along with a team of other composers. The sax is Michael Palo, who did an exceptional performance. The theme got a great Hollywood Reporter review. They also produced Sunset Beach and asked me to write the theme. They would attend my holiday parties, etc. We saw each other every week, spotting the episodes and at the show mixes for years. Melrose Place producers Charles Pratt Jr and Frank South became good friends. Q: Can you please explain once and for all the story of the Sunset Beach theme? Did you or Dominic Messinger compose it? Who performs the sax? And what’s the story of the Tim Truman character in the series? He explains that his theme song was replaced because of drama behind the scenes! And that Tim was indeed named after him! Someone: … uh I meant the BEACH called Sunset Beach.Īn interview with the composer of the original SB theme, Tim Truman.Īn interview with the composer of the original SB theme, Tim Truman. You can’t get a creepier rape story line than that… what else… people faking their deaths to get revenge on those they felt wronged them (yeah I’m looking at you Gregory and Ricardo)… oh and then there’s this pregnancy thing with a Turkey Baster.
yeah she was the one that ran over the Archbishop…. and not JUST an EVIL TWIN story line but a EVIL TWIN plots to kill his good twin’s soul mate by including the use of his own child and the good twin’s first wife’s amnesia and making EVERYONE believe a child that is too freakin’ white like snow is supposed to be a lovechild between a white British dude and a California Hispanic beauty named MARIA TORRES. oh and there was the evil twin story line because it’s not a soap opera unless there’s an EVIL TWIN STORY LINE. like it’s bad enough you’re trying to retrieve THAT TAPE OF US MAKING LOVE but instead of talking about it quietly and just referring to it as that sex tape it’s “Oh no Antonio we have to stop so and so from finding THAT TAPE OF US MAKING LOVE” and “Gabi I know how vital it is to find THAT TAPE OF US MAKING LOVE is” and “goddamn it where is THAT TAPE OF US MAKING LOVE.” then there was the whole Who Shot Francesca? story line which was boring because it honestly could have been the dog and it still made more sense than Madame Carmen running over the Archbishop because of that whole TAPE OF US MAKING LOVE. then there was a priest that fell in love with his brother’s girlfriend and that was all sorts of crazy because it ended up giving us fans that sex tape that wasn’t called the sex tape but THAT TAPE OF US MAKING LOVE. there was a baby-switch (because what soap opera isn’t without a I’m Not Pregnant but I Need to Be so I’ll fake Giving Birth to a baby that’s not mine but is actually my mother’s and my husband’s child). because what was the 90s without Titanic, right? then a really screwed up christmas rosario jewels story line because why not go all supernatural. and then those fuckers killed off Mark! Mark okay MARK WHO IS THE SWEETEST KINDEST CINNAMON ROLL THERE WAS ON THIS ENTIRE FUCKED UP SERIES…. there’s the spoof story lines ranging from a young girl who had an affair with a Senator (the whole Clinton-Lewinksy thing) to their version of Scream-slash-I know what you did last summer called Terror Island. there’s the love triangles (because what soap opera DOESN’T have love triangles). Me: omfg where do I begin? it’s a 90s soap opera that had a whole shitload of stories! there’s the small town girl leaving her small town life to fall in love with the British millionaire ala You’re Got Mail.
