"Say Goodbye" in May 1989 – it peaked at No. 6 on the ARIA Singles Chart. Other Melodian artists were Roxus (1989–91), Jo Beth Taylor (1990–93) and Peter Andre (1990–97). Andre had been a contestant on New Faces in July 1990 when Meldrum was judging the TV talent show, he told TV Week that "Peter impressed us all and he has a unique voice that can be developed". Andre's highest charting single with Melodian was "Gimme Little Sign" (December 1992) – a cover version of Brenton Wood's 1967 original – which peaked at No. 3 in April of the following year. From 1988 Meldrum presented a regular music segment, "Molly's Melodrama", on the TV variety show, Hey Hey It's Saturday – it was the successor to his earlier "Humdrum" editorials on Countdown. He travelled extensively, conducting interviews for his segment; including a set of one-on-one interviews with each member of The Rolling Stones. Meldrum made a cameo appearance in Neighbours that year. In March at the ARIA Music Awards of 1988 Meldrum was a presenter. A fracas developed between band manager, Gary Morris, accepting awards for Midnight Oil, and Meldrum. Morris felt that foreign artists such as Bryan Ferry should not present awards to local artists and made fun of Ferry's deliberately crumpled suit. Meldrum objected to Morris' disrespect to Ferry and he and Morris became embroiled. At the 1991 ceremony Morris provided a 20-minute acceptance speech on behalf of Midnight Oil: Meldrum disapproved of its length in the media. However, in 1993, when Meldrum received his ARIA Special Achievement Award for services to the music industry he provided one of the longest acceptance speeches in the ceremony's history. A televised roast, in 2003, for the openly gay Meldrum, Molly: Toasted and Roasted, was characterised by the recipient as a "gay bashing" due to its excessive homophobic slurs. Footy Show star Sam Newman received boos from the audience during his speech. Meldrum became a judge on 2004's Popstars Live, a reality talent quest program on Channel Seven, alongside fellow judges, Christine Anu and John Paul Young. Meldrum's trademark cowboy hat headwear, enthusiasm for popular music, and sometimes incoherent interviewing style remain well known. By visiting Egypt over 30 times since 1969, he has become an amateur Egyptologist and collector. That his extensive general knowledge extended beyond popular music was less well known until, as a contestant on a celebrity edition
