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

  • Due to Mischa Barton’s (Marissa, The O.C.) personal issues, The Beautiful Life is making a “contingency plan.”
  • The July 28 issue of Soap Opera Digest features a Beverly Hills 90210 trivia question: who donned a mermaid outfit for a costume party?  It’s a pretty easy one for old-school fans but note that it wasn’t just a costume party–it was Halloween.
  • Tori Spelling (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210) discussed misconceptions about her life on the Today Show this morning.  She’ll be co-hosting the last hour tomorrow and Wednesday as well.
  • Jennie Garth (Kelly, Beverly Hills 90210) will be back on 90210 next season for “multiple episodes,” according to Ausiello.
  • John Schneider has been cast as Liam’s (Matt Lanter, 90210) step-father.  Fun fact: Apparently Schneider got awfully close with AnnaLynne McCord (Naomi, 90210) on Nip/Tuck.
  • Korbi posted photos from McCord’s birthday celebration.




90210, Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill and More

20 01 2009
  • A “crisis” will occur in the 90210 episode that Jason Priestley directs.  A hospital is involved somehow.
  • AnnaLynne McCord (Naomi, 90210) will be returning to Nip/Tuck later this month.
  • More details are being released about Kelly Rutherford’s (Lily, Gossip Girl) impending divorce and custody battle.
  • EW’s recap of last night’s Gossip Girl (you can read my reaction here) criticizes The O.C. and Dawson’s Creek for the way it transitioned to college.  Beverly Hills 90210, on the other hand, is complimented.
  • DC is again criticized here, now by Buddy TV, for its approach to college. This time, though, The O.C. and One Tree Hill get credit.
  • A paper in the UK is calling Gossip Girl “rubbish” that they “can’t get enough of.”  What does that say about them?
  • There’s a new page on Facebook exclusively for Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick, Gossip Girl) quotes.
  • According to an exclusive statement given to OneTreeHillFans.com, there will not be an OTH charity basketball game like there’s been in the past.
  • The same site is also reporting of rumors that Chad Michael Murray (Lucas) will not return for a seventh season.  They also acknowledge this has been denied by the network.




Spoiler: You Ask, I Answer

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

(compiled from recent columns)

Korbi, Is Tori Spelling really doing 90210?!! -Michelle
Donna Martin Graduates! The deal is done, baby. I spoke to a friend of hers who gave me the wink-wink when I asked.

Who is the father of Adrianna’s baby? Is it the HIV guy or someone we know? -P
Someone we know. Someone we haven’t seen in a while. Someone who’s super hot.

I cannot believe that Gossip Girl is doing this whole love child thing with Lily and Rufus. 90210, Brothers & Sisters, so many shows have already covered it! To death! -Jacqueline
I feel your pain, but I’m hearing GG may actually put its own little spin on the whole “bastard kid coming to town and turning everyone’s lives upside down” storyline. I know my pal Michael Ausiello at EW has said that the long-lost child will show up towards the end of the season, but as I understand, the original plan was for Rufus and Lily to find out that their first born son was killed in a tragic accident.

Korbi! I wanted to know if we were going to get any closure on Eden’s character from Nip/Tuck?  Thanks. -Marty
Yes, indeed. 90210 producers were kind enough to let AnnaLynne McCord finish filming her Nip/Tuck arc last Fall, so we should see Eden again soon.

Tell me there are more old 90210 characters coming back to the show. I want to see a familiar face. -Shannon
Well, if you’re hoping for Dylan McKay, don’t get hold your breath. But if you’re cool with seeing Jackie Taylor again, you can get excited. Word is, Kelly and Silver’s loony mom will soon make a return appearance.
