My favorite channel–SoapNet–will be starting Beverly Hills, 90210 again from the beginning this week!
If you’ve never seen all the episodes in the original order, or just want to watch them again, here’s your opportunity!
You can catch the first half of the series premiere Tuesday at 12pm and 6pm eastern time.
And then the second part will air Wednesday at 11am and 5pm eastern time.
Enjoy it! It’s such a trip watching everyone from nearly 20 years ago!!!
…and stare at these for inspiration.
I made these super-collages into posters out of smaller ones I found on the good ol’ internet.
Do you have teen drama photos decorating your room, too?
Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four
1. Valerie Malone (Beverly Hills, 90210)
This should come as no surprise as Valerie was and is, without a doubt, the ultimate teen drama vixen. There wasn’t a woman in Beverly Hills Val didn’t fight with or a guy that was safe from her come-ons. With a priority list that consisted of ME ME ME, Val stopped at nothing to get her way from the day she set foot in the zip code. A few arrests and even an AIDS scare didn’t deter her to change her wild ways.
HONORABLE MENTIONS
These ladies deserve a small shoutout for occasionally causing trouble but either not sticking around long or having a lot more to their personality.
Sophie Burns (Beverly Hills, 90210)
Jen Lindley (Dawson’s Creek)
Abby Morgan (Dawson’s Creek)
Eve Whitman (Dawson’s Creek)
Taylor Townsend (The O.C.)
Brooke Davis (One Tree Hill)
Nicki (One Tree Hill)
Taylor James (One Tree Hill)
Georgina Sparks (Gossip Girl)
ANYONE I’M FORGETTING?
Part One, Part Two, Part Three
2. Gina Kincaid (Beverly Hills, 90210)
Though she actually started appearing before the departure of 90210’s other resident bitch, Valerie, it was clear to anyone with a brain that Gina was meant to serve as some replacement. And replace she did, going after some of the men Valerie herself once laid claim to: Dylan, Noah and David. Gina’s arrival–and involvement with Dylan–gave Kelly a new enemy and Donna another family member to fight with. Among Gina’s schemes: extortion, illegal businesses and workplace back-stabbing. Classic bitchery!
One resource in particular was invaluable to me last week as I worked on the Most Quote-Worthy Characters series.
Wikiquote is part of the Wikimedia family, which is also responsible for Wikipedia, Wiktionary, etc.
Wikiquote takes Wikipedia’s general purpose of providing information and narrows it down to simply providing quotes.
They have some of the best collections of Dawson’s Creek, The O.C. and One Tree Hill quotes I’ve seen.
Unfortunately, the Gossip Girl and 90210 (old and new) sections are lacking.
But if you have a lot of time and want to relive some memorable lines, or if you’re looking for something in particular, Wikiquote is great place to start your search.
Thanks to Carole for sending me this! Key part begins about 40 seconds in.
If you want to laugh some more, also check this out.
Updated: I see now that the above videos are no longer available. My apologies! If anyone finds the 90210-Family Guy parody somewhere else, please send it my way!
Updated Again: Try this link for the video. Unfortunately, I can neither find nor remember what the second link was to!
Updated Again: I embedded a new version of the video. Still unsure about the second link.
