Totally off topic, but euhm, does anybody know if Aragorn aka Viggo Mortensen ever had a ‘more than just guest star’ role in Melrose Place? IMDB - which I generally trust - does not list Mr Mortensen as an actor of that TV series. And frankly, I’m just not willing to picture the hansom Aragorn in a cheesy soap opera. Legolas would probably be vain enough to do that, though. :p
So, now I have a bet going on, and as my opponent says IMDB is wrong, I need other sources of information. Preferably some who are old enough to have watched Melrose Place when Viggo Mortensen was still young.
Did or did not Viggo ‘Aragorn’ Mortensen have a role - with more than one appearance - in Melrose Place?
Any help appreciate. Especially if you prove me right! ;)

Viggo never was in MP, I think your opponent may be thinking of Grant Show, they look alike - or did in their repective late 20s- early 30s.
Thank you so much! *kisses the person old enough for Melrose* *pfsfff… this tastes dusty!* ;)
(Because of being able to point to Grant Show, the other party had to accept it’s defeat! Yeey! I’ll consider sharing the Duvels when I get them.)
Uhm - nope - Viggo was never in Melrose Place to the best of my knowledge
(and I HAVE been following his career relatively closely due to his relation to Denmark - where I am from - we don’t get too many wolrd class stars here heheheeh)
I just stumbled upon a Melrose place rerun and that is definitely Viggo Mortensen. He’s playing “Jake” who is dating Heather Locklear’s character.
Oops, nevermind - Further research showed that actor’s name is Grant Show, but he looks ridiculously like Viggo Mortensen. Sorry!
