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

Question: Is Jennie Garth going to appear in any episodes of 90210 next season? –Emil
Ausiello: There’s nothing on the books yet, but a rep for the show says “the intention is to have Jennie back next season.” In other 90210 news, former Law & Order ADA Elisabeth Rohm will guest star as a robot bitchy socialite who locks horns with Naomi in at least one episode.

Question: Here’s a question: What the heck has the awesome Melinda Clarke been up to? –Tammy
Ausiello: Big scoop: She’s starring in a new TV series as a housewife by day and a spy by night. Unfortunately, the show isn’t real; it’s part of an upcoming Entourage subplot.

**Note: Clarke played Julie on The O.C.

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

Question: There’s a spoiler floating around that says Chuck is going to bring home a girl in the Gossip Girl season premiere. Does this mean that he cheats on Blair? Or, even worse, that they broke up over the summer? –Fernanda
Ausiello: While it’s true that Blair catches Chuck, ahem, connecting with a model in the Sept. 14 opener, all is not as it appears.

Question: Any news on Gossip Girl? What’s in store for Serena? –Sara
Ausiello: She’ll be motherless for the first batch of episodes due to Kelly Rutherford’s maternity leave.

Question: 90210 scoop, please? –Darren
Ausiello: As you may have heard through the ‘vine, the teens at West Beverly High will be given a hot summer hangout with the C-dub bringing back the Beverly Hills Beach Club. Much like the original — which was a favorite hangout of Kelly and Brenda, as well as the place where both Brandon and Dylan worked — the new beach-side club will feature a bevy of hot new characters. I mean, it’s not really a beach unless there’s some skin to burn, right?

Question: Is Dustin Milligan not returning to 90210 at all next season? –Becky
Ausiello: Nope. We’ll learn in the Sept. 8 season premiere (via gratuitous exposition) that Ethan decided to stay in Montana with his pa.

Question: There have been rumors that Danneel Harris is returning as Rachel on One Tree Hill in the season 7. Is this true? –Cameron
Ausiello: The rumors are true. Rachel will be back next season for an arc.

Question: Any idea what actress is slated to play the role of Haley’s sister Quinn on One Tree Hill? –Lila
Ausiello: According to this highly reputable journalist, relative newcomer Shantel VanSanten has landed the role.

**Note: Dylan NEVER worked at the Beverly Hills Beach Club.

Who’s going to hook up with the new stud on 90210? Please say Kelly. — Rosemary
MICKEY: Kelly?! She will be his guidance counselor, Rosemary, you perv! Don’t make me go all “Palin” on you. As usual, I’m hearing that Annie and Naomi will scratch each other’s eyes out volleying for the tennis stud’s attention, but that his love will belong to Silver, who returns to feisty form this season. (Any suggestions for who should play Teddy’s Clooney-esque movie-star dad? I’m thinking Peter Gallagher would totally rock it.)

**Gallagher played Sandy on The O.C.

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

Question: I keep hearing that the new 90210 show-runner isn’t planning on having any more characters from the original show on the reboot. Does that go for Jennie Garth, too? I can understand why having an old-school character pop up randomly just to boost ratings could get lame after a while, but Kelly is so integrated at this point they’d need to explain her absence if they weren’t going to have her back. It seems crazy to send her packing. Jennie Garth is the best thing about the new show. Thanks!—Nic

Matt Roush: My understanding from my in-house 90210 expert (I’m going on record as a first-season dropout) is that Jennie Garth is staying put. As you said, Kelly’s integral to the remake’s premise. What I guess you’ll see less of are the stunt drop-bys, and that’s probably a wise choice.

Melrose Place and 90210

21 03 2009

Nearly every article about the Melrose Place remake mentions how 90210 was recently remade as well.  But the major fact these articles are overlooking is that the original Melrose Place was a spin-off to the original Beverly Hills, 90210.

Here’s what you need to know:

In April 1992, Beverly Hills, 90210 introduced a character by the name of Jake Hanson (Grant Show).  He appeared in two episodes as Dylan’s old friend and Kelly’s new love interest.

This was done to set up Melrose Place as a spin-off of Beverly Hills, 90210, much like we’ll see the beginning of the Gossip Girl spin-off on GG itself later this season.

In the first and second episodes of Melrose Place, which aired in the summer of ’92, Kelly (Jennie Garth), Donna (Tori Spelling), David (Brian Austin Green) and Steve (Ian Ziering) appear.  Kelly, David and Steve also appear in third episode, as well, which is where Jake breaks up with Kelly and all ties to Beverly Hills, 90210 are cut.

This new Melrose Place is a remake, just like 90210 is of its original.  But this time, there isn’t any cross-over link between the two shows.

On my old site from long ago, we again combined 90210 and Melrose Place into a fan fic series.

For a good source on the Melrose remake, check out this site.
