Beverly Hills, 90210

[luciano]

The dance where Brenda and Kelly wore the same dress was another dance, not the prom - and Brandon went with Kelly for that one. That was when they danced and he told her that he thought of her as a sister. That was also the episode when Steve revealed that he was adopted. It was also the one of the first of the approximately 39423029320 times that David awes the people with his "dancing skills."

Brandon went to the prom with Andrea - they ended up in a hotel room together but did nothing.

Wow. This is memory lane...Yeah, I agree with whoever said Kelly was kind of perpetual victim. Brenda was kind of the more fighter type. I definitely identified more with Brenda. Plus Brenda was a "middle class" gal trying to make it in a rich world. I liked that about her.

I just love Shannen Doherty and the show tanked for me after she left. Plus Kelly got less pretty after she dropped the blonde/wispy bang look. She kinda looked school-marmish at the end. So didn't Dylan wind up getting back with Brenda? Did Brandon and Kelly marry?

Oh, Auron, thanks for that vingette about romantic life of your Barbies. I laughed aloud. Made my night. Really.

After Dylan's wife Toni was killed, he ran off to Europe. The gang found out he was staying with Brenda in London.

Dylan eventually returned to 90210. He and Kelly finally paired up in the finale, if I'm not mistaken.

Oh yeah, Brandon and Kelly did get engaged and set a wedding date. They called off the ceremony at the altar, but had the reception anyway. IIRC, they also went on their honeymoon. I think . . . anyway.

Brandon and Kelly were on and off for a while. During this time, Brandon dated Susan and Tracy. Kelly dated Colin and I can't remember the names of any other guys.

So didn't Dylan wind up getting back with Brenda?

They got back together for a litle while. But at the end of the show, Dylan and Kelly decided to give it another try .

It's funny how Brandon was the love of Kelly's life while he was on the show. Hell, she even broke up with Dylan for the guy. Kelly and Brandon got along MUCH better then Kelly and Dylan ever did. While Dylan was off in Europe Kelly never gave Dylan much of a thought. She was jealous when she heard he was living with Brenda but that was more because she didn't want anybody else (especially Brenda)to have Dylan either. It had nothing to do with her still being in love with him. She was a complete bitch to Toni.

Then very conveniently when Jason Priestly left the show and they brought Luke Perry back, all of a sudden DYLAN was the great love of Kelly's life. Gee, what a surprise. Never mind the guy she almost had a baby with, was engaged to and almost married, and was with for ALOT longer then she was with Dylan.

The Kelly/Dylan soulmate crap was too heavy handed and nauseating. But I guess the writers were hellbent on putting her with somebody. With all the mess Kelly had been through I think it would have made alot more sense to keep her single. If she had grown up at all she would have known to not even think about giving it a another try with Dylan when she knows first hand they bring out the worst in each other.

Count me in as another Brenda and Dylan lover and a total Kelly Taylor hater. I identified much more with Brenda, not because of her class and status but because of the attitude. She didn't take bullshit from anyone and even though there were times I really wanted to slap some sense in her, it was never enough to make me hate her. The episode when Brenda helps Nat (or Brandon?) out with waitressing and invents her French alter ego has got to be one of my favorites.

Throughout the seasons I was always hoping Shannen had a change of heart, or her career sucked enough for her to get back on the show. Alas, it never happened, because if they brought her back she would have married Dylan, not that whiny, spoiled perfect princess, Miss Taylor. Am I the only one who would have wanted Kelly and Steve to develop some relationship? They were each other's firsts and in the beginning Steve was still in love with her, but the show never developed that story beyond friendship. I mean, it was still okay, but I would have liked to see them as a couple. Brandon was just too serious for her. Steve was silly. I liked Steve.

[Atreides]

I hated the "Donna Martin Graduates!" episodes with a passion. The entire senior class rallied behind this two-legged horse with scary boobs? She got wasted at prom when the rules were made explicity clear. I say no mercy.

Has anyone seen the 90210 reunion special? I think some of the parts are up on YouTube. It's hilarious as it's clear that Shannen Doherty hates Jenny Garth and Gabrielle Carteris.

Only on BH90210 would Tori Spelling be considered to be the most gorgeous woman in the world and would be stalked left and right because no one can resist her.

Seriously. She hurts my eyes.

[CAgirl]

Does anyone else have problems distinguishing Brandon's girlfriends, Tracy and Susan? One worked at the news station and the other the paper. Seriously, they looked so much alike, I always thought it was the same actress with a new character name. That always bugged me!

And I agree with SluttyMary that there is no way Donna would be such the guy magnet. Especially with the bleached white hair she had for a good while.

I also thought Matt was so boring. Boring, boring, boring.

Who did Daniel Dae Kim play on this show? Does anyone know?

[luciano]

Oh, Auron, thanks for that vingette about romantic life of your Barbies. I laughed aloud. Made my night. Really.

Heh, no problem. My Brandon ruled.

The Kelly/Dylan soulmate crap was too heavy handed and nauseating.

Especially when set in the Wild West. The hell?

The episode when Brenda helps Nat (or Brandon?) out with waitressing and invents her French alter ego has got to be one of my favorites.

She took over Brandon's shifts while he was off taping that teen soap opera. And, I agree, that episode was awesome. I loved her Laverne [or "Lavoine"].

Does anyone else have problems distinguishing Brandon's girlfriends, Tracy and Susan?

Yeah - but now I know, one of them is played by Anya the Vengeance Demon. I think it was Susan.

According to one of his fansites, Daniel Dae Kim played the doctor who helped Kelly after she got shot.

I can't believe Ray Pruit hasn't been mentioned yet. He had to be one of the most annoying characters ever.

[gimmeshelter]

Is that Jamie Walters' character? One of the many abusive boyfriends?

I never really cared for Andrea. Although I liked the episode where Kelly, Brenda, & Donna let officially let her into their clique. I thought it was sweet for them to do.

And I blame my Cathy Dennis obsession with this show.
