I apologize for taking so long in posting my thoughts on 90210 but honestly, I can’t even recall what happened. Is it possible that I blocked it all out? I think I was too upset about Melissa’s injury on DwTS to care about anything else. Oh and while we’re on that topic, why is there so much message board hate for her? I get that she’s not an actress or a singer but neither is Steve Wozniak and I had never even heard of Chuck Wicks before this show, so there.
Anyway, 90210. This show is such a mess, I don’t know why I still bother. Yes I do: Shannen Doherty. I vaguely recall that Adrianna and Navid are “engaged” and living together in Ade’s house. I can’t wait until next season when Adrianna’s mother and running mate lose the Presidential election, the engagement is called off and Navid appears on the Tyra Banks Show to complain about how Ade won’t let him see his baby that’s not even biologically his.
I also learned that Lady Mossimo likes to cook Salmon, Naomi’s college-aged sister looks like Rachel Zoe and Liam likes to hang out in a pool hall, Dylan McKay-style. Seriously, why do all the Beverly Hills loners hang out in pool halls? Shouldn’t they be all coked up a the Beverly Center like the characters in Less Than Zero?
Semi-related to all of this, I watched Tori Spelling’s True Hollywood Story today. Of course, even though it was produced in that new mode of “actually gaining a celebrity’s endorsement and procuring an actual interview in support of the show” I still found it vastly more entertaining than this trainwreck. Also, maybe I was having a bad day or perhaps I’ve completely lost it, but I actually found BAG deeply attractive in the clips they showed. (And when I say “clips” I mean “excerpt from the ‘Donna loses her virginity’ episode”. Shudder.)
BAG attractive? Seriously? Ha – whenever I think of him I only remember the Vanilla Ice-esque rapper who had a short video at the closing credits of the show and then went on to hook up with Vanessa Marcil (a.k.a Sonny’s real soulmate, Brenda).
