He was, like, You’re the perfect girl for me, because you never saw me with pimples.’ Hasn’t he got a box set he could show you? ‘Well, yes, but I’m not sure if I should watch it. It might change my perception of him. When I met him, he’s a man, you know? I’m not sure I want to see his awkward teenage mode.'”

RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!

Will Harry have an affair with Kelly on 90210? — H.G.
MICKEY: Not yet, according to my West Bev mole, but it’s definitely part of a long-term plan. In the meantime, look for both of the senior Wilsons and Kelly to have amped-up storylines in the fall — a bold stance for a CW show with an explicit mandate to attract younger viewers.
