I was totally looking forward to the 90210 Reunion Special today — and I have to say I’m a bit disappointed. It was way too nice and schmaltzy or something. I wanted to hear about the DRAMA! 😀 I did like all the clips they showed from the very beginning and omg — the hair! and the clothes! So AWFUL. I can’t believe I used to think this show was trendy. Oy.
Some observations: It was weird that they seated Shannen, Luke and Jennie in the middle couch. I know they were like the original love triangle and all (Dylan/Brenda forever! *ahem*) but I always thought that Brandon and Brenda were the “main” characters. Ooooh, I’ve heard rumors that Shannen and Jennie don’t like each other and I never really believed it until today — throughout the entire special, they never once looked directly at the other. And in the beginning, when everyone first arrived and they were all hugging, the two of them hugged for like 2 seconds without making eye contact at all. Gotta love real life drama. And not to be completely shallow or anything, but gawd, Jennie Garth looks so much better now than she ever did on the show — in all the clips they showed of her as Kelly, she was so pale, it was scary.
So now I have this 90210 itch — too bad FX only shows the reruns on Saturday mornings from 7-10am. And I think they’re showing the season when Donna is auditioning for the Tournament of Roses parade. Yawn. I’ll have to start taping the episodes when they’re in high school — those are classic.
Someone else that shares my 90210 obbession 😀 I know what you mean about it being all nicey nicey though and I am sorry but I think Tori crapping out on being on there was just so rude of her 😛 It was her dad’s show and its like she didn’t care…. sigh But I so agree Brenda and Dylan forever 😀 😀
I am so pissed. I completely forgot about the reunion. 🙁
hehe i watched it toooo. Im glad you did too cause i felt like such a geek watching it, i just couldnt help myself. Anyways can I steal your wee little dawson’s creek sign there? ill link ya.
I loved 90210 too, it was sooo good. I loved Brenda and Dylan as well, urgh with Kelly stealing her best friend’s man.
Mazzie — steal away! 🙂
I also wanted to hear more drama on the show, it was sorta lame. But the early years are always fun to watch:)
aawww why can’t i live somewhere that i could have seen that, the still show 90210 here but it is like after college or whatever.. can we say "Way behind" i use to love that show 🙂 lol
I saw the name Dylan and my attention was captured but, well, my mind didn’t go to 90210, lmfao.
I never watched that show, I actually saw my first episode of it ever with my old roommate last year…needless to say I was confused before she barely started explaining, heh.
I watched the reunion, too. I wanted drama, but there was none. Heh. The clothes were SO bad, though, but then again, I used to wear some of those colors. Eck.
