In every soap opera, there are more villains than there are good guys. Matt Fielding was one of the good guys, and he managed to stay that way throughout the show’s running, which isn’t surprising considering he worked as a social worker.
That being said, he loved some good drama, even if it wasn’t his own. He would always love unraveling a good mystery. Matt was also a medium for the show to talk about issues that weren’t often considered in the early 1990s.
Brooke Langton as Samantha Reilly - Then
Samantha Reilly appeared in the season finale of season four, and as she joined, it seemed like she was marveling at the bizarre events that were happening around her.

He starred as Scavo for the entirety of its run. After Desperate Housewives ended, he had a series of guest roles in several different shows, including NCIS: New Orleans.
Kelly Rutherford as Megan Lewis - Then
Kelly Rutherford was introduced to the show as the pretty face that Kimberly Shaw hired to help save her marriage. Good intentions don't go along way on the show, and as with any good storyline, Megan Lewis found herself involved in a love triangle.
It isn't surprising, as nothing was ever easy on Melrose Place, and Megan was always in the middle of a romantic entanglement throughout the rest of her time on the show.
