Melrose Place and 90210 Pt. 2

1 04 2009

Looks like there will be a 90210-Melrose Place cross-over after all!

Ryan Eggold, who plays Ryan Matthews on 90210, will take his character to Melrose, where we’ll see his life outside of school.

The news is kind of surprising since Eggold panned the idea of a Melrose remake.

So what do you think?  Can this work?

General Hospital has done something similar with its spin-off, Night Shift, and managed to maintain continuity.  But the original 90210 and Melrose Place cut ties very early on.

Guess time will tell!

News Roundup: Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, 90210 and More

17 03 2009
  • Newsday called Gossip Girl “one of the smartest shows on television” and rated this season an A.
  • Last night’s Gossip Girl was based on the film/book, The Age of Innocence.  The New York Post provides a side-by-side comparison.
  • Sebastian Stan (Carter, Gossip Girl) has one of the lead roles on Kings, a new series airing on NBC.
  • EW.com is asking readers why you love Gossip Girl and 90210.  One staffer just doesn’t see the appeal.
  • BuddyTV ranked the different parts of last night’s One Tree Hill.
  • Mark Schwahn previews next week’s episode in this video.
  • You can customize your iGoogle homepage with a One Tree Hill header.
  • Chad Michael Murray (Lucas, One Tree Hill) gives one-word plot twists in a new video interview: dog, baby, heart, cash, hospital and love.   Also, did you know he’s is a painter in his spare time?!  Who knew?!
  • James Lafferty (Nathan, One Tree Hill) will play in a Battle of the Sexes celebrity basketball game.
  • Tori Spelling’s (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210) new book, Mommywood, will no longer go head-to-head with her mother Candy’s memoir.  I’ll still be buying both!
  • SoapNet is airing commercials with Spelling talking about different Donna moments.  Really just promos to get you to watch the repeats.  Would be cool if they did this with all the characters!
  • Ryan Eggold (Ryan, 9021o) said he didn’t watch the original show growing up, choosing ninjas and Saved by the Bell instead.
  • Love this “open letter” praising Josh Schwartz.
  • The New York Times compares Schwartz’s Rockville CA to The O.C. and Gossip Girl.

Article: Ryan Eggold Interview

13 01 2009

In another great 90210 interview (which we’re getting thanks to the TCA Press Tour), Eggold (Ryan Matthews) reveals some interesting inside-info.  Here are the highlights:

Tori Spelling’s (Donna, Beverly Hills 9021o) return will be related to Silver.  Makes sense considering they’re related through marriage.  Brian Austin Green, where are you?!

The execs did consider making Ryan Harry and Tracy’s lovechild.

They also considered Ryan getting Brenda pregnant.

He’s got a very foul mouth.  Strange–I don’t remember that from when I interviewed him!
