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

Question: Any word on how Navid reacts to Adrianna’s bisexuality on 90210? —David
Ausiello:
He reacts like you’d expect an ex-boyfriend to react: like a big ol’ ass. “Navid is a little freaked out about it,” says exec producer Rebecca Sinclair. “He’s like, ‘Whoa, what did I do? I just turned my girlfriend gay! What does this say about me!’”

Question: Hey! Got any scoop about my favorite sophomore drama, 90210? —Sarah
Ausiello:
Hey! I do. There’s a catfight coming up between Naomi and another female character that will put Alexis and Krystle’s legendary lily pond brawl to… okay, it’s not as good as that one, but it’s still pretty damn memorable.

Would just like to point out that Joey (Dawson’s Creek) already had Navid’s reaction.  And here we thought this storyline would be different from past shows…

Question: 90210 scoop, please!
Ausiello:
Naomi’s going to tell a lie. No biggie, right? Wrong. This time, there will be major consequences.

Question: What’s this I’m hearing about Bart Bass returning from the dead on Gossip Girl? Is he alive or is it a flashback? —Fernanda
Ausiello: It’s neither. Totally unrelated question: Are you a fan of A Christmas Carol, Fernan?

News Roundup: 90210, The O.C., Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill

28 10 2009
  • The Los Angeles Times has “five burning questions” on 90210. Spoilers already revealed the answers to numbers 3 and 4 but it’s still worth a read.
  • Greg Vaughan (Cliff, Beverly Hills 90210) tweeted that he’s “making his return to the new 90210.”  I guess that means he’ll be playing Cliff?  Who knows, though, considering 90210 2.0’s inconsistency.  Last month, Vaughan was fired from General Hospital.
  • So apparently AnnaLynne McCord (Naomi, 90210) and Kellan Lutz (George, 90210) are together!
  • Charles Rosin (executive producer, Beverly Hills 90210) did a blog post about the progress of his current project, showbizzle, and linked back to the interview we did together.

  • According to TVGuide.com, Gossip Girl is in danger of cancellation.
