good evening! i had such a long day today but overall things went great - except for the fact while walking around boston this evening i felt like i needed earmuffs - my ears were so cold plus it was really windy - it's a beautiful quaint city yet i think i'd rather come in the summertime - since living in los angeles i've been totally spoiled by all the warm weather and sunshine...speaking of LA just today a new promo for 90210 hit the web for the upcoming fall show (airing on the CW) which is a spin-off of sorts from the hugely popular aaron spelling created teen serial drama beverly hills 90210 (that show ran from 1990-2000...i had absolutely no clue it ran for ten years!) i'll admit i loved the show back in the day - something about the whole thing just worked - the casting - all the backstage drama with shannen doherty etc. - i seriously don't know what to think about the new version - of course i'll give it a chance but based on the promo below - i'm not feeling it yet however i'm thrilled to see annalynne mccord as part of the cast - she played the highly naughty & very sexy eden on nip/tuck - total smart casting choice! (bonus pics of ms. mccord at the recent CW upfronts held in NYC on may 13th are posted below)
other regulars will include lori loughlin, rob estes (of melrose place fame) and jenny garth will be back (on a recurring basis) as 'kelly taylor' (playing a guidance counselor at 'west beverly hills high') although i'd love to see (highly annoying) 'brenda' come back - i bet ms. doherty wants nothing to do with the show but she could use the work i'm sure...and we all know that tori spellingdesperately wants to be on the show as well - the producers should just toss the girl a bone and let 'donna martin' live once again! come this fall we'll really know if 90210 is america's favorite zipcode (like the promo claims) if all goes well - who knows - we might be seeing more soap operas being resurrected like dynasty or dallas - i'm all about recycling (go green!) but when it comes to television - hollywood needs to calm down before things get way out of control and we're forced to deal w/ a.l.f. or punky brewster again! popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo
I liked the original and could even handle the OC but this looks boring.
Dixon did well explaining his character without even mentioning "token black guy"

it has me intrigued! I watched the little promo earlier.... I like that Lori said it would focus on the adult world as WELL as the teen world. And I hope it sticks to that. I don't see myself regularly watching it but I might sneak a peek :)
