Oh God, the original cast of 90210 wants to reboot the show

Didn't this already happen?

Will they have a storyline about Andrea's osteoporosis?

where is the photo of tori spelling and ian ziering [ he's in a car ] in a parking lot? her big fat ass is everything in that pic!

I bet they do, since none of them have anything resembling a real career these days.

The full original cast?

This photo ripped from the pages of TMZ -- getting coffee after a network pitch meeting today. Tori Spelling and Ian Ziering, look hopeful. Jennie Garth can't believe she's getting roped into this despite she could probably used the cash. BAG looks tentative. Apparently, Jason Priestly was at the meeting too.

Without Doherty, who cares!

I want a reboot but we need all the originals back or pointless. Shannen a must!!!

Are these old broke bitches for real?

For the reboot to work, it will need Brenda. And Val.

Gabrielle was in her forties during the original run of the show.

If it is about the original cast then I am not gonna lie, I am here for this. But only if they bring back Clare Arnold.

Cool. It's a continuation.

I'm already in a hit teen drama.

No Brenda no care

Can Emily Valentine burn down Casa Walsh?

Gotta have Brenda. She was it.

Not interested if Doherty is shut out.

Brenda and Dylan are a must.

I would watch.

Gabrielle Carteris must be a centenarian by now.

They just did.

This has to be a joke!

how they all turned into rich asshole deplorables?

actually, that might be kind of interesting.

We’ve just heard from Gabrielle and she’s a definite.

I think SD would be into it. She mentioned during a convention panel in NZ that they all catch up frequently. Doesn’t seem like any bad blood there.

They could call it 90210-1000. Zip Code plus four.

this might not be a bad idea.

Only if Jim and Cindy are in it.

The Peach Pit will have early-bird specials.

Gabrielle Carteris was 29 y/o and got a job playing a 15 y/o. I assume that makes her a DL Icon

I admit, I like the idea of an old (young) cast dealing with getting older. What ever happened to ...? Friends? Cheers? Happy Days (okay, they're maybe dead, but still)? You get the idea.

Without Brenda they don't have prayer. Even the reboot everyone wanted Brenda back. I'm guessing Luke Perry isn't interesting.

Jennie Garth is a weirdo. She got fat when she was married to her hot husband (3rd), now she's back to thin after they divorced.

Will Fatface Tiffani-Amber Thiessen be back too?

Garth and Doherty are cool but I don't think Spelling and Doherty get along at all.

So who is at odds now? Tori and Shannon?

I know Jennie and Tori don't speak to Tiffani.

Will Adam Levine make a guest appearance at the Peach Pit?

Wasn't this done a decade ago?

Tiffani has aged the best of the them.

R35- that was a reboot with all new characters. This would be the same cast as the original.

It's weird about people clamoring for SD. Back in the day most people hated her character because they couldn't separate her on screen persona with her off screen antics. I always loved her character and hated Kelly when she stole Dylan and no one seemed to care. LP didn't want to work with SD; actors should not dictate storyline. I stopped watching once Brenda left. The show sucked after that.

This will be worth watching if only to see close-ups of Tori's mangled face.

No. Just no. Would they play adult versions of their young characters? I can’t imagine anything more boring.

I want both Brenda and Valerie back. I really grew to like the Valerie character and Tiffani seemed to have fun with it. I would love it if they make Donna a broke bitch just like Tori is now.

Jennie Garth was on the first season of the first reboot, and I believe Shannon and Tori both had cameos.

I think Jennie is broke as fuck and Shannen is likely not far behind, unless she was successful in her lawsuit. Tori would be basically homeless compared to those two, were it not for Candy.

Kelly going for a true Aileen Wuornos hairdo in OP's pic lol.

They all look pretty good from afar. Ian and BAG look better than they did in the original show.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

I've met Ian a few times. Cute, although I think he did get plugs.

Shannon was smart enough to ask for a piece of Charmed, and even once they kicked her off the show, she still got paid. She's probably the most financially stable of the lot.

R42, Jennie sold her Studio City Hills home for about $4.5 million recently (the one from her rehab reality tv show). I think that she paid about 2 mil for it and despite whether or not she actually had to pay for the improvements (or whether the show and or the publicity of being featured on it paid for most of them) - I would guess that she has SOME money in the bank now..

Gabrielle Carteris is one of the fugliest people to ever appear in a tv series. How she ever got cast on 90210 is beyond me... and she looked like she was 30 on the show, which makes it an even bigger mystery.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Between this and Trick 2, Tori's rolling in the $$$

[quote]Will Tori bring her ass with her?

I believe Dean has other commitments.

9021.....0h, my back! Dylan..get me my back rub medicine

So I'm guessing this was Tori and Jennie's idea? I want Valerie to come back. And none of that Kelly/Dylan/Brenda bullshit. They both should've told Dylan to go fuck himself in season 3.

Did any of them ever do much of anything after the show? I remember Shannon on some show about being in the market to buy a 6 to 12 million dollar home in Malibu a few years back. Yeah right. Her realtor was showing her dream home "options".

The cast of Dawson's Creek, which started when 90210 was on the down slide, became much more successful than anyone out of 90210.

Storylines from the pitch...

Carla from season 1 tries to have an anchor baby with Brandon

Gil Myers leads a #metoo movement. He is now married to date rape cheerleader Bonnie

Slumber party cunt and DL icon Amanda Peyser joins the cast. She's kicked the diet pills but is now part of the obesity epidemic. She's dating fellow tub o lard Bryan Abrams. Donna finally watches Color Me Budd perform live at the Peach Pit. David opens for them with an updated version of his smash "You're so Precious"

Samantha Sanders' career is revived thanks to Netflix greenlighting a series for her.

Ondrea's relationship with Jay Thurman sours as he is rabid Trump supporter

Emily Valentine has a mental break and walks into the West Beverly High Class of '93 reunion with an automatic (Season cliffhanger)

Oh wow, what we've all not been waiting for!

I loved the first few seasons when it originally aired. I had no interest at all with the earlier reboot but seeing the original cast now all grown up would certainly be interesting.

What's the zip code for the Hollywood Forever Cemetery?

R54 - Tiffani has had a good career afterwards, including White Collar, Fastlane, Good Morning, Miami.

WOO HOO! GO TORI, GO TORI, ITS YA BIRTHDAY, MAKIN’ MONEY!

Great. More opportunities for Ian to call Shannen a cunt. I'd watch if I can finally a scene where Brenda punches Kelly in the face.

I guess I can still play teenager.

I want a gay story-line between Jason Priestley and Luke Perry's characters, complete with photo-shopped flashbacks.

Joan Collins would be perfect as Andrea's willful daughter.

Brenda can finally come back from Art School in Paris!

Can we just forget about Scott’s unfortunate birthday party?

Remember when a reporter went to the DMV to find out Gabrielle Cateris' real birthday? I don't think he succeeded though. Arizona didn't yet require birth certificates when she was born.

Can we just forget those fucking rabbit teeth that Kelly, for all of her money, could not get corrected? She always looked like she smelled something bad.

I would watch the fuck out of this.

Me too r70

I want James Eckhouse and Carol Potter back too.

I wonder if they'll attempt socially relevant storylines. I'd love to see them protesting in Sacramento when Andrea's Medicare is cut.

[Quote] I'd love to see them protesting in Sacramento when Andrea's Medicare is cut.

LMAO

[quote]I wonder if they'll attempt socially relevant storylines. I'd love to see them protesting in Sacramento when Andrea's Medicare is cut.

Funny, but Sacramento wouldn't have anything to do with Medicare, which is a Federal program.

Does Brenda’s breast cancer scare now come back as the real deal?

Jennie Garth should not be broke. She's worked consistently on TV since the original 90210 ended.

It should. That's a good idea r76. I hope the powers that be are listening here.

They also need to portray Kelly Taylor as someone already on her third divorce, and who never lived up to her potential (whatever that was) kind of lost, a bit overweight and rabbit teething her way through life. (Kelly is a frau) The only way the show would work, in my opinion, is to have the characters trajectory mirror the actors who play them.

I remember when Megan Fox was filing for divorce duuring that brief time, Brian was seeking spousal support, claiming he couldn't work due to his vertigo, resultant from a near fatal car crash. I guess he's feeling better now that Megan ain't going anywhere or to accomodate BAG's illness, David will have realized his dreams of becoming L.A.'s most renowned radio personality and most of his scenes will have him seated in a booth?

If they went for glitzy nighttime soap it wouldn't work, since most of the cast doesn't look good enough.

If they did a limited-run, six or eight-episode series about vapid, overprivileged, middle-aged Gen X'ers who are deeply dissatisfied with their lives and don't quite know why, and perhaps at the end a couple of them achieve something like acceptance and grace while the others just stay in their selfish personal spirals? That could be interesting.

The only reboot that really worked was Dallas. They knew how to successfully incorporate the old with the new. The only issue I had with it was that the storylines were a little complicated and they leaned a little bit too Hispanic, which changed the feel of the show a bit too much.

Jackie Taylor needs to fall off the wagon stat. She was best when drunk.

....

[quote]Gabrielle Carteris was 29 y/o and got a job playing a 15 y/o. I assume that makes her a DL Icon

Gregg Sulkin is 26 and is currently playing a 16 year old in Marvel's Runaways.

In the 90210 reboot he should play Donna's or Kelly's son who gets hot and heavy with either Brandon, Dylan or Steve.

Jackie Taylor’s Dead better not be cannon. The reboot should not be mentioned. I’d like to see it as a Big littlt Lies

I'd like to see an episode where Andrea gets Kelly hooked on Metamucil.

Will Luke Perry still look as hot as he did in 1992 in his Gap Denim Vest?

1992 was a good year for Luke Perry... and Gap!

Luke Perry aged badly last I saw. JP looks great. I have a feeling LP wouldn't do a reboot. He always seemed like he thought he was better than the show. Maybe things have changed since his career went nowhere, but he wasn't at the meeting so....

Without SD they shouldn't even bother.

Shannen or bust

They’ve never had Brenda and Val on together so that alone may be worth it.

They were the two best characters by far.

But please don’t bring back Claire.

The only way this would work is if the main story is that the cast joins ISIS to kill Trump in some big, elaborate hit job. Some sort of The Expendables.

Brenda and Val team up! Midwestern girls take down the dumb blondes

I would watch the hell out of this if Shannen is on board. Bitch survived cancer, she can survive another round with Tori and Jennie.

Ziering doesn't need the $, he made Sharknado.

Whoever said that the show will only work if it follows the trajectory of the actors who plays the characters is a fucking idiot. How on earth would that make sense and why the fuck would I watch it regardless? I don’t care about the twists and turns in Gabrielle Carteris’ life since 2008.

That said, they do need to bring back Brenda and Clare. I’m actually really excited for this, it was probably the seminal television show of my youth.

In OP’s pic they look like the real dangerous kids! The dead enders, the kids from the wrong side of the tracks!

These are the kids you don’t want to get mixed up with, because it’s a one way ticket to the Big House!

[quote]Jennie Garth can't believe she's getting roped into this despite she could probably used the cash.

I recently read a thing that I hadn't realized. Garth's character is Kelly is considered the main/central character in the 90210 Universe as every series that came out of the show stemmed from her character.

I've only ever seen the Brenda years so I wasn't aware of this.

*Garth's character Kelly

'The Heights' was connected to Kelly?

R97 Try and get a smile or even a smirk out of these juvies and you might end up eating a knuckle sandwich, hold the pickles!

These kids are headed nowhere, do you want to come??

[quote]'The Heights' was connected to Kelly?

Excuse me, The Heights had nothing to do with 90210.

Kathleen Robertson has had a pretty good career and looks great.

I just can’t see Gabrielle jumping up & down with pom-poms in a skimpy cheerleader outfit. This is some sick ass Granny Porn!

They really don't need Andrea, she is expendable. If this is going to be the Jennifer Garth show ala Sara Gilbert then pass.

Kelly as the central tortured heroine no thanks that baby voice she’d use YUCK only tolerated Kelly when she was the shows bitch!

Ondrea should be the new Mrs. Teasly in the reboot.

Reek goes to Brenda's closing night in some Paris production and they fall in love.

Jim finally has an affair with Dottie the secretary.

Wasn't the character from the Heights dating Tory on 90210? I think he even beat her.

Was Ray Pruitt in the Heights? I frickin loved Ray. Ray had no patience with any of them and barely tolerated anyone but Donna. And then he threw her down the stairs. What’s not to love?

The Heights didn’t exist in the same universe as 90210. Ray Pruitt was a completely different character than the one Jaime Walters played on the Heights. I wonder if the events from the reboot 90210 would be treated as cannon?

I'd love to see it is Kelly Taylor became a coke whore like her mom. LEGEND

In the 2008 reboot Kelly and Brenda ended up fucking the same guy again (the hot English teacher played by Ryan Eggold). Kelly was raising a son that had been fathered by Dylan. Brenda ended up adopting a baby girl. Donna and David were divorcing after he’d been unfaithful again. Jackie Taylor died of cancer and later Kelly ended up leaving town to make another go of it with Dylan. Of course all of these plots could be built upon or simply glossed over in a new series.

Who was that bitch friend of Kelly’s who crashed the Walsh slumber party in season 1 and was hooked on diet pills? She was awesome.

I hope Allison comes back and has a lesbian affair with Kelly.

Amanda was the diet pill popper! Yes gloss over the reboot and their horrible storylines! Brenda Walsh isn’t a teacher.

I want them to recreate this iconic scene.

"WOO HOO! GO TORI, GO TORI, ITS YA BIRTHDAY, MAKIN’ MONEY!"

Is there another way of Spelling: Cha-Ching?

It never sat right that they made Kelly the love of Dylan's life. Ugh. Of course if they give Brenda a hot love interest I can get over it and Kelly will be stuck with this.

How will the gang come react when they discover Andrea uses Depends?

Someone needs to spam " Your youthful beauty died in the 90's !" " You are all OLD OLD OLD OLD OLD!"

I'm not vain , but I'm realistic. People mostly watched that show b/c they wanted to fuck the guys and be the girls. That's it.

Millennials are oversaturated with shit to watch. Just... no... no..

The entire cast?

When did Kelly have her coke problem? Season 7?

I just noticed that Andrea is the Saffron of 90210.

Brenda had cancer and Jackie Taylor died in the reboot.

Ian still looks hot

JP looks much better than LP. Proof a little fat helps keep you youthful looking.

R127 I know it sounds blasphemous but I always thought JP looked like Paul Newman. If only his character has been better - he actually was a decent actor.

This thread has given me more belly laughs than anything in like two weeks! Thank you, DL! The Andrea AARP-esque jokes are fucking great!

The only thing I got out of the clip of R111 is how stunningly beautiful Jason Priestley was in his early twenties. I was only a few years younger than him (well, still am, obviously) and I think he made me gay.

What about childkiller Rebecca Gayheart?

Too soon?

Ondrea dancing about in the reboot

Ugh I fucking hated Ray. Was The Heights any good?

“Does anyone know what time the PEPto bismol RALLY is?”

R132, The Heights was terrible. And that song!

You call yourselves bitches?

Love OP's photo. That was taken during the filming of the U4EA episode. That's why they all look so badass.

Has anyone warned the IRS that Tori might have income in 2019????

Brenda to Dyldo: “Are you going to the sock hop down at the Prune Juice Pit?”

Ondrea lies about her caretaker's address so she can live in a Beverly Hills retirement community.

Toro gets written out halfway through season one by YET ANOTHER MIRACLE PREGNANCY!!

[Quote] Love OP's photo. That was taken during the filming of the U4EA episode. That's why they all look so badass.

I love that episode. So many great lines.

luke looks 80 years old in r119 link. Why does he look so old?

Shannen looks old too now but it's probably from all the Chemo she's had.

Luke Perry's son is a wrestler.

They need to ignore the "reboot". Will 2 time Oscar winner Hilary Swank be back as Carly? She was fired because they all hated her.

According to the YouTube comments, Jamie is now an LA firefighter. HAWT!

1992 HOTNESS!!!!!

BOTH!

Maybe Kelly and Donna buy that building in Melrose Place to rehab, and they hire old pal Brenda to turn it into a reality show. And then they find a dead body in the walls... which forces the girls to track down all of the old Melrose Place residents to find out who went missing and when.

>SWOON!<

Count me in!

R150 Lol so 90210 meets American Horror Story??

Did no one bother to post this?

well tori spelling and brian austin green both desperately need the cash and career boost, so more power to them.

Both Jason and Luke in their prime were very hot in their own way. Being a top, I was always partial to the muscular shortie Jason even before I hit puberty - but if my memory serves, the more handsome Luke was always the popular one with most girls (and probably in general...Luke was the one that you heard about). Both were nice on the eyes and had that lean, muscular, primped early 90's look about them.

David's blond pal who shot himself was a cute twink.

Will the reboot include Ondrea's ugly, balding husband?

R157 because Luke played a bad boy, while Brandon was the goody two shoes. The bad boy always gets more attention.

R156 Fuck Tori.

R160 Thanks for stopping by, Candy.

I think even they know not to bring back Noah. Or Lindsey Price.

Jim always seemed like the dad that would have secretly set up a camera in the bathroom to record Kelly so he could jerk off later.... and knowing he couldn't actually get her into bed he would have ended up fucking Donna.

R163 Lol what gave you that impression?

Kelly was such a cunt. Why did they all want to be friends with that stank ass princess?

I always rooted for Brenda on the show and Shannen in the tabloids.

Always hated Kelly/Jennie.

R165 because once she got with Brandon she became a saint.

....

They are doing it for the health insurance, to keep the SAG insurance. Like Ziering did with Sharknado.

I hope there's at least one Sharknado reference. And a Megan Fox cameo.

No more reboots.

Given that Old Man Spelling is dead they no longer have to pretend to like Tori. It would be funny if the entire original cast came back and they recast her. Just give the role to Melissa Joan Hart.

Isn't Gabriel(le) Cateris SAG President? Couldn't she swing them a favour?

R168, I found that pic of Priestley on the internet several years ago and still have it in my spank folder; it makes me hard.

Yes, I reblogged that photo on my recently deleted Tumblr ages ago. Very hot. I'm sure I masturbated to it at one point or other.

Is that Keri Russell in r144 ?

[quote]r163 ....nowing he couldn't actually get her into bed, he would have ended up fucking Donna.

Story of my life -

Does anyone remember any 90210 inspired porn? That is what they should probably be rebooting and updating? With more “age-appropriate” actors in group scenes?

“Peach Pit Dungeon”

If one of the key actors doesn't come back, then the show could have a premise similar to A Million Little Things (or The Big Chill). The non-returning actor's character has just committed suicide, and the others reunite to try to figure out why and make sure that no one else does it. For this to work, the characters have to interact with each other frequently. Perhaps one of the characters has a successful business and hires several of the other characters to work for him or her. Then, there's plenty of opportunity to interact. Then, as someone else pointed out, the actor's looks aren't going to facilitate a show that's mainly about hook-ups (a la Melrose Place). There could be a couple of romances, but there shouldn't be a bunch of love triangles. A soapy show won't work. Don't even try to have offspring who look like models doing soap storylines, either. Actually, I think it would be pretty cool if they went for a half-hour sitcom format. Then they could poke fun at their earlier years.

[Quote] Then they could poke fun at their earlier years.

Reguardless of the format, they should do that anyway.

R178 There was one called Beverly Hills 90269.

3 of the porn stars that starred in it, are not-so-surprisingly dead now.

As long as Joe E. Tata is in it, I’m good.

Joe E. Tata is 82 and looking good. Carol Potter is serving late in life lesbian. She's 70. Looking good too.

Wait r184 is she really or you’re just calling that? I ALWAYS got that vibe from her.

I always did too. She's been married twice, the second one since 1990, but we all know that doesn't necessarily mean anything. She pings even harder to me now.

R186 I have no idea if this is true but a friend of mine who’s a manager in LA told me that Carol Potter and Emily Valentine (forget her real name) had an affair while she was on the show. She had id say not a perfect but pretty good batting average with stories, and I have no idea if it was true, but I get such lez vibes from both of them it’s not even funny.

R187 Hmmm she was dating JP though and i think they lived together too.

I remember hearing this too r187 and it had the ring of truth, age difference aside.

R178 “Brenda in Chains”

“Donna Does Del Rey.”

Tori Spelling can't act. The only reason I would tune in is for Brenda.

It would have been like bringing back “Gilligan’s Island” in the 1990’s with the original cast. Are you trying to FUCK WITH ME?

Jason Priestly's huge cock needs its own screen credit.

Brandon and Ondrea could work for a gay newspaper called The Glaze.

As much as I loathe her, Bret Easton Ellis would be perfect to pen the reboot.

[quote]For the reboot to work, it will need Brenda. And Val.

Brenda, definitely. Val, definitely not. She was the beginning of the end for me.

[quote]r192 Tori Spelling can't act. The only reason I would tune in is for Brenda.

Isn't that what made it so wonderful??

Bring back Ray Pruitt and I’ll tune in, hunty.

Where Tori’s eyebrows in that clip???

They thought those stupid, sparkly barettes would distract us from the non-eyebrow situation??

THINK AGAIN.

R291 that whole Drew Barrymore circa flashing Letterman look was the thing at the time.

I need James Eckhouse and his furry chest back in my life. As a teen I had a major crush on Jim Walsh.

Donna Martin gets an AARP card.

Donna Martin gets a tax lien!

R203 gotta love DL - only on here are people jot for the likes of James Eckhouse Vic Tayback and Ed Asner.

Cindy Walsh and Emily Valentine = HOT!

R194 - I think it's just JP's balls that are enormous. Not saying his cock isn't sizable, but people on set of Calendar Girl said it was all about his big, bouncy low-hangers.

Bret Easton’s Ellis does 90210 YES!!! I love this being more Less Than Zero than kitschy reboot!

I still want to read the I HATE BRENDA newsletters...

Donna's current husband is a Bernie Madoff-type who gets arrested and all of his possessions are seized by the Feds, leaving Donna and her spoiled, homely children homeless. They all move in with Kelly and her kid(s?), leading to tension and stress. Jim comes out of retirement and manages to salvage one asset - the apartment building at Melrose Place. Kelly calls all of the old gang, who all pitch in to form a partnership with Donna to salvage the building.

I haven't seen American Horror Story, but I was thinking more traditional soap - body in the building, who dunnit? Kelly hires ex-sorta-boyfriend Jake to be the contractor doing the repairs. The body is found in fashion-designer Jane Mancini's old apartment, so she points the finger at her notorious ex, who Kelly flirts with for information. The body turns out to be one of those pretty female tenants who disappeared after the first season of Melrose... Then what the heck, another body turns up. Did Melrose Place have a serial killer? Good gothic fun with our favorite aging gang acting as investigators. Maybe Brenda decided to sell the story to reality TV, while Steve decides to write a book about it. Then Steve's bitchy ex-wife ends up dead too and he's now a suspect... If the show is on the brink of cancellation, Donna brings in a priest to perform an exorcism... and in walks Heather Locklear.

Why did they pronounce her name 'Ahhhwhn-dea' with so much hard emphasis on the first part?

Kelly and Jake were hot together.

That was then, this is now

R211 - I would pay money to see what you're pitching!!

Now that most of their youthful good looks are gone, I'm not sure the cast has much to offer viewers.

90 to 100

R198 They should reboot The Heights even though no one watched it

R218 Knowing the CW they probably will at some point.

I vote for a Models Inc. reboot.

Thank you R215 - I can pitch, but unfortunately, can't write a script to save my life.

The only one that could act, even remotely, was Shannen.

R222 she was probably the best out of the OG crew but Tiffani and Kathleen weren't too bad either.

[quote]r220 I vote for a Models Inc. reboot.

CARRIE ANNE MOSS!

Now that's a girl who deserved a bigger career. She's so good in [italic]The Matrix.

Yeah Id love a Models Inc reboot too. It was so fun and trashy.

R221, I can write scripts. Call me.

R224 she was good in Jessica Jones.

They are going to ruin the show with this weird ass concept. Tori Spelling:

“It’s not technically a reboot, because I feel like everyone has seen the reboot. We don’t want to be the last ones like doing the reboot thing, and no one wants to see like old versions of ourselves, but they do want to see us playing our characters, so what we’re doing is the entire cast is playing heightened versions of themselves,” Spelling told E!’s Daily Pop. “Think Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes, in an hourlong show, and we’re all playing heightened versions, so it could be fictional, it could be non-fictional, people will have to guess. And then we will have pop-ins, because we’re behind the scenes trying to do the reboot.”

R228 That is a shit idea. I can’t imagine the tone they want to strike.

Exactly, R229. I'd definitely want to see the characters older in a serious drama, if it was well-made of course. Spelling seems to be saying the whole thing is now treated as a joke.

It's going to be too OTT campy. It's not going to work. I have a hard time believing Luke Perry would come back to do this.

Could it be like a Big Little Lies? Or desperate housewives? The big chill? They could have kids and something brings all of them back together for a logical reason.

I love you, R27

R230 well her life is joke

Is Tori involved in producing it? If so, we'll have another Sara Gilbert on our hands. Tori was horrible on 90210, she couldn't act her way out of a paper bag, which should've been over her head.

No fucking Melrose Place. WRONG zip code.

Donna marries a dead-beat Canadian, will a lot of kids, is a hoarder and shopaholic and runs out of money. To make ends meet she ends up as the star of a reality program called 'Never Not Pregnant'.

R55, Michelle Williams still hasn’t won an Oscar!

R228 yeah i can't see them pulling that off.

Gabrielle Carteris is nearly 60 and looks like Reba M. now

This won’t work without Shannen! Facts

I don’t like this idea. They could do the show the way they used to. 40-somethings aren’t dead. At 40 you have to deal with affairs, drugs, addictions, money disasters, rotten kids, divorces, people dying, new relationships-there’s plenty of drama to go with.

Anyone meet James Eckhouse and Carol Potter at the Hollywood Show this weekend?

I don't care what they do. I will watch it!

Will Valerie Malone be back? Emily Valentine? Claire Arnold?

No Shannen, no dice.

No Roger, No Rerun, No Rent!

r9

Yeah she was way told

If those rumors of Carol Potter and Christine Elise hooking up are true, it would be interesting to see them as onscreen lovers in this reboot. Carol looks very... habitat for humanity at the moment.

The thought of Carol "Hairy" Potter slurping on Christine Elise's dripping cooch is almost too much to handle.

I gotta go fuckin' finger myself.

[Quote] At 40 you have to deal with affairs, drugs, addictions, money disasters, rotten kids, divorces, people dying, new relationships-there’s plenty of drama to go with.

I'd rather they skip the affairs and drugs. There's plenty of that in the original.

[Quote] Anyone meet James Eckhouse and Carol Potter at the Hollywood Show this weekend?

Did you??

[Quote] Will Valerie Malone be back? Emily Valentine? Claire Arnold?

I can't see Tiffani coming back due to Tori and Jennie. Unless she's in an episode without them on set lol

They better bring this bitch back.

I wish people would learn the difference between "reboot" and "revival."

A reboot is starting from scratch with the same basic premise but all new actors and storylines (like JJ Abrams Star Trek).

When it is the same cast years later (Roseanne, Will and Grace, Murphy Brown, etc.), it is a revival.

It's official now:

It's a terrible idea. I thought they were going to be playing their characters, but they are going to be playing parody versions of themselves in a behind the scenes making of the show type deal like The Comeback.

[quote]In the new series, having gone their separate ways since the original series ended 19 years ago, Jason, Jennie, Ian, Gabrielle, Brian and Tori reunite when one of them suggests it’s time to get a Beverly Hills, 90210 reboot up and running. But getting it going may make for an even more delicious soap than the reboot itself. What will happen when first loves, old romances, friends and frenemies come back together, as this iconic cast – whom the whole world watched grow up together – attempts to continue from where they left off?

It's a clever idea on paper but I don't think this crowd has the acting chops to pull it off. I predict a lot of shrill mugging.

And honestly, who wants to see the original cast reunited without Shannen and Luke? They were the most interesting ones ...

[It's a clever idea on paper but I don't think this crowd has the acting chops to pull it off. I predict a lot of shrill mugging.]

Totally agree. With the right actors and writers an idea like this has potential. Not with with this cast, though.

Meh to the cast that's returning. Think I'll pass on watching. Tori face is way too fugly for HD TV.

Wouldn't be surprised if it does well enough because of nostalgia that it gets renewed for a second season.

Im pretty intrigued by this. It wont last but im intrigued.

The minute Shannen left I stopped watching. I was already turned off when they all turned on Brenda after Dylan and that tramp Kelly got together. I won't be watching this.

[Quote] I was already turned off when they all turned on Brenda after Dylan and that tramp Kelly got together.

I always found it weird how the rest of the group was pretty much ok with Kelly & Dylan.

sounds like what they're planning is way dumber than a reboot.

What is stupid about this is the concept with fictionalized drama from the past, etc. really only works if Shannen is involved. At least, she would be the most interesting spark for all of that. And she's probably the only one of them that could pull off the acting for it.

Anyone know if she declined to participate or if she was just never asked? I'm assuming if Tori is involved she made sure Shannen wasn't asked.

Who do the producers imagine would want to watch this?

[Quote] Anyone know if she declined to participate or if she was just never asked? I'm assuming if Tori is involved she made sure Shannen wasn't asked.

I bet that had something to do with it.

I would bet that if Shannen approached Producers and said she wanted on but Tori would have to be kicked off, they'd do it.

Shit Luke just had a stroke!

God he looks old :(

R266 Except, Tori seems to be closer to, and to have kept in better contact with the others. So, they, especially Jennie Garth would probably go to bat for Tori.

Yes, R268 Tori is closer to Jennie, but Jennie and Shannen are now friends as well. Shannen is also still very good friends with Ian and Priestly. Ultimately, when it comes down to it, if they're desperate enough for work (and the fact that they want to do this means they are), and the Producers said, Shannen's in, Tori's out, I don't think any of them are going to hold out and say, "Donna Martin Graduates!"

I do wonder though, does Spelling's Estate still control any part of the 90210 franchise? Not that they'd go to bat for Tori either, but just curious.

What are they going to do, show the characters signing up for AARP and filing for Medicare? Some things are meant to be left in the past.

I vote Shannen over Tori.

R272 No, Candy would defiantly vote for Tori, because if she is making her own money she might not be hitting her up all the time.

Are you daft, R273? Of course Candi would vote for Shannen over Tori. She hates her daughter and loves fucking with her. Additionally, keeping Tori on the ropes and dependent on her for cash is a fun game for her.

R273 Even if Tori got a massive paycheck, she'd just blow it and need Mommy's money again

I'm guessing they didn't bother to ask Tiffani?

Tiffani wasn't an original cast member.

And if Tori stopped Shannen from being involved you know Jenny did the same at any mention of Tiffani.

R277 fair enough.

Shannen was on an episode of So No-tori-ous, and all three were together on the CW reboot a few years ago. Also, Jennie and Tori rallied around Shannen when she was going thru her cancer nightmare a few years ago. So I thing all has been healed among those three.

R279 I think you're mistaken.

First of all, Shannen and Tori did not appear on the CW reboot together. Tori actually made sure that their story lines did not overlap. Shannen was never on So Notorious. And Jennie rallied around Shannen when she was going through her cancer stuff because they had made up... Tori did not.

Is Luke Perry's stroke related to the news of the reboot? I'd be upset about working with Tori, too...

Yeah, there might be some truth to that rumor. :) Cool...

I'm surprised Jason is doing this crap. He has the directing career, plus he was pretty pissed at Tori for selling his wedding invite at a garage sale

Jason also directed on the 90210 reboot.

R283, maybe this way he can curtail tori's cuntery? Especially if he's involved behind the camera. That way he can limit any damage to the brand...

Shannen Doherty To Return For ‘BH90210’ Fox Event Series, Reuniting With ‘Beverly Hills’ Gang

I'll watch now.

Doherty was smart to hold out and she is an executive producer too. She managed to get a small piece of the show Charmed too, so continued to make money for even episodes she wasn't in.

Wait, how did Shannen who signed on at the last minute become executive producer? And all of us who were there from the beginning get diddly squat!

R289 Because I'm not a moron

Now all we need is Amanda Peyser.

[quote]Wait, how did Shannen who signed on at the last minute become executive producer? And all of us who were there from the beginning get diddly squat!

Because Shannen has always been smarter than the others. Plus, the show needed her. No one was interested in it without Brenda coming back.

Tori must be pissed.

Tori posted a tribute to her father the other day for his birthday and called herself "her father's daughter". Honey, he was successful and hardworking. Then there's you.

Spelling wished Doherty was his daughter.

But how can Shannen be the executive producer when most of the work of the producer has already been done prior to her signing on?

Great now can we get Tiffani back?! I always wanted to see Valerie and Brenda interact.

R293 they have the same bug eyes but as you noted there’s little behavioral ressemblance.

So is Luke Perry the only holdout now?

R297 Candy has the bug eyes too. Not quite as bad but poor Tori had no chance with that gene pool...

Emily Valentine is coming back

Uh oh.

The premise of the new BH90210 was to show the original cast’s stars grappling with making a reboot.

However, “Tori didn’t want to portray her real life, which is being broke and on the D-list,” a source previously said, explaining Spelling, 46, instead “wanted to live in a big mansion in Beverly Hills and show the life she envisioned her character would be leading — a life much more glamorous and wealthy than her real life.”

Shocking Video! Tori & Dean Share Steamy Sex Secrets: ‘We Watch Porn Together’ SHOCKING VIDEO! TORI & DEAN SHARE STEAMY SEX SECRETS: ‘WE WATCH PORN TOGETHER’ She then dug in her heels and refused to budge. Eventually, the reboot’s original team of writers had enough and decided to quit.

R302 she sounds exhausting.

They should've just made The Amanda Peyser Show instead. Now THAT would be entertaining. She fell off the wagon, goes back on diet pills and cunts all over the place.

R304 I'm ashamed to say it took me a minute to realize who you were talking about ☺

R305 is a total zero and their life is totally boring.

I'll be watching. I watched the original all 10 seasons. I wasn't as interested until Shannon signed up. Whatever the format, it'll be a fun 6 episodes

I'm curious how this train wreck concept will overcome the train wreck behind the scenes.
