Breaking News: Tori Spelling “Close” to 90210 Deal

7 01 2009

It’s the news many have been waiting for.  A deal will be finalized soon for Tori Spelling (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210) to appear on 90210 for multiple episodes, according to the LA Times.

I didn’t (and still don’t) want Donna back without David (Brian Austin Green) because I fear it will be revealed that they’re no longer together.  I don’t know how the execs could do that in good conscious considering how much of the original series was built around their relationship, especially the series finale.

Before Spelling’s first appearance deal fell apart over the summer, the plan was to have Donna be the owner of her own boutique.  My question: isn’t she already?  Anyone remember Now Wear This?  But like Kelly (Jennie Garth) was so far from where we last saw her, who knows what Donna will be up to?

Are you okay with a Donna return even if the storyline isn’t true to the original series?  Leave your thoughts in the comments.
