Marcil and BAG (with son Kassius) circa 2004
If you’ve seen her on Beverly Hills, 90210 (Gina) or General Hospital (Brenda), you probably only think of Vanessa Marcil as a vixen or a sexpot. In a new TV movie (airing Sunday on the Hallmark Channel), she’s playing against type. The role? A nanny. But the highlight of this new interview with TV Guide is definitely the props she gives to ex-fiance/babydaddy Brian Austin Green (David, Beverly Hills 90210)
Is it sickening to see the emphasis placed on the rich in shows like 90210 and Priviledged when the economy is doing so bad? Roger Catlin of The Hartford Courant thinks so.
I’m undecided. Part of the draw of teen dramas is their escapist nature. Who wants to be reminded how bad things are in reality? It’s nice to fantasize! But being more sensitive to the average person couldn’t hurt either.
What do you think?
Jamie Walters and the rest of the season 5 cast
He wasn’t one of the more popular characters on Beverly Hills, 90210 but that’s probably one of the reasons he’s coming back to television. Jamie Walters (Ray Pruitt) will star on the reality show Confessions of a Teen Idol (VH1). In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Walters reveals he’s still recognized for his role as Donna’s abusive boyfriend.
I’m still upset all his songs were cut from the seasons 5 and 6 DVDs!
I rewatched 90210’s mid-season cliff-hanger tonight and that final scene is stuck in my head.
Sean, after just having moved in to Casa Wilson, is on the phone–sans accent–and acting very unlike the well-mannered boy he supposedly is.
Reminded me of the end of Valerie’s first episode (Beverly Hills, 90210 season 5) where the supposedly sweet young girl shows a new side, where she smokes pot and trash-talks.
Coincidence? I think not…
