This Is Depressing


9021-NOOOO! Above is a promo of The CW's 90210 and I'm not impressed. This shit looks like footage from a Christian rock video.

Whenever I hear the first few beats of the 90210 theme song, I'm expecting to see Brandon fake punch Dylan. Instead, I'm seeing two strangers playing pattycake. The producers need to hear my screams already! This show will be nothing without Brenda Walsh!

Okay, the Naomi bitch is sort of hot. You can already tell she's going to be the cokehead slut. Oh wait, this is The CW. They sanitize everything. She'll be the ciggie smoking serial kisser.

I'm still depressed. Below is the original intro for Beverly Hills 90210. Now this is the real shit right here!





ugh...jessica walters is awesome but after i watch this mess im probably going to hate her and the rest of the people on this show...im glad there bringing kelly back but i really hate brenda

I'm so totally pumped for this show! Aunt Becky can suck it! I love the original and although the CW version won't stand a chance against Brandon, Brenda, and the Gang, I'll still watch!

Believe or not, Britney will still rock the year 2008. Her profile was found on the dating site ++ I n t i m a t e m i n g l e. c o m ++last week. It seems Britney is seeking true love now.

There is a female character with the name "Silver", I betcha that this girl is the younger sister of David Silver and Kelly Taylor. Remember how Kelly's mom married David's dad and they had a baby named Erin?

oh god!! I can't believe I actually still remember that!!

The CW may very well fail. FOX is the #1 network in America now, it took them over 20 years to get there. They started off with only weekend programming and built up from there. 'Member 21 Jump Street? They started small. Now we have a bizillion cable channels and the internets. How do they think they can compete? The CW expects to get ratings in just like 2 years. Ridic. Look at me abbreviating words. Bring back Brenda. And are they still gonna have the Peach Pit on the new 90210? I'm gonna need that.

Well, you all know the formula, when all else fails, throw in Heather Locklear as slutty Amanda or an Amandaesque slutty character. And she can fight in a pool (or fountain) with Lori Louglin...sexshie!!

That bitch knows how to save a show.

Hey, Fucko, we like to call it inter-species erotica.

If you want to live in the Zip, you gotta know the code..... - What in Sam Hell is the CW doing to one of the greatest shows ever made? My god. It's bad enough you got that bitch from Degrassi starring. Shit in a handbasket and call my Dad, this show is going to blow. I'll still watch, however.

More oversexed kids with too much money and no souls? How daring! I guess it's breaking new ground compared to the original because it actually has token kid of color who's not the guest star of a very special episode about interracial dating or poverty.

Jess Walter and Lori Loughlin are hotter than the younger girls (a plastic day-glo headband? Really?) and all the guys look like they drink Sunny Delight.

May it tank. Hard.

Didn't they already try this with "The OC"?
Just because they have the same name, it doesn't mean it's gonna make a difference!

I'm just gonna stand here while it all goes down.

So

Fuckin

WRONG!

That show sucked to start with. Even as a child I didn't know why they dressed that way (so vivid and cropped!) and were so robotic.

I won't watch the new thing (obviously because it will suck ass) as it will ruin Jessica Walters for me as the wonderful, horrible mother from Arrested Development. There's no way she's wrestling Liza Minneli in this cheese factory.

TT99's picture

So far the only character I like is the Grandmother. They should base the show around her shenanigans.

LAME. LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME!!!! I was going to watch it to see Jennie Garth, but now...nah.

I was like fucking 8 and was forbidden to watch the original. I used to sneak to watch it with my sister. Along with the fucking Heights. You can't remake the fucking original. It's like doing a remake of M*A*S*H in Iraq. It loses all of it's charm. I smell another Saved By The Bell, The New Class. FAIL!

Good grief.

Does anyone have some crackers to go with all of that cheese? Actually, scrap that. That cheese looks well past its use by date.

It 's kind of like the Saved Bell the new class type of situation. It is never the same as the first one. SBTB always horrible!!!!!!!. At least Beverly Hills started out OKAY.

if my nana would wear pink and act like that tabitha icky woman, i'd slap her with her cats...god, this thing is so damn gross!! i've only watched 30 seconds of the trailer and i already wanna puke my dinner!!

armaita's picture

i was 10 when the original series was on and i loved it..now it's all so depressing. where is the big nosed duff sister, she should be here? as brenda. or as kelly. or as both!! and that milf saying "celia is as cool as her children"..she sounds like "Celia is so desperate she'd fuck her children's nerdy classmate". come on!! i'd rather watch heidi kissing spencer on a beach while sniffing lotus flowers..that'd be a show.

PS sorry, i'm european trash and i'm not even from UK so excuse my english..if you care (cause i do..seriously :|)

damien's picture

Should I be worried that there's really not that much difference between the video-editing of the 80's version and the 08 version? Definitely will not be watching this...

the only thing that makes me SLIGHTLY interested is that hot slut jessica walter is on it, fucking love her.
haha, and that naomi character is played by the same actress who played that crazy ass cunt eden from nip/tuck who tried to kill julia.

hmm, i might have to watch this hot mess

saram23's picture

I think that promo just ruined it for me. It's going to be the OC, just in a different way. Blech.

Can we talk about how hot Ian Zeiring's shorts are in the volleyball shot?

ITSKTBITCH's picture

This show is going to suck, I can tell. You can't improve on perfection.

And wtf is up with the pattycake at the beginning? lololololol

Sweet_As_Sugar's picture

This show will be nothing without Brenda Walsh!
That is all. Oh and the fact that this is w/out Aaron Spelling is doing it no favors.

Can I pass? They should've brought back the "The Heights."

C'mon, everybody!

It's like trying to catch a falling star...

Sorry. That one got away from me.

"looked like kids" what 90210 were you watching?! andrea (pronounced: auuuun - drea) was seriously pushing forty back then, fuck brenda... andrea, and her ill-fated love for brandon, was the shit..

the_shari-est's picture

Okay...whoever shot that clip was clearly over-influenced by the intro to Silk Stalkings back in the day! That show was full of cheesy goodness but this new 90210 is a big NO for me.

Wow the kids look so grown up. What happened to kids looking like kids? The original cast was much better. They didn't take their looks so seriously. I guess that was the cool thing about 90210. The kids looked only slightly better than the general public. They all had "next door" vibes. This cast looks too intimidating (model types) and thus harder to relate to.

Give it time, a couple of low-rated eps, and it'll be like Melrose Place: Started out being g-rated crap about fresh-faced 20-somethings taking on the world to skanks fighting in pools in no time.

How many times did they say the word "fun" in this promo? This is going to suck so hard.

When I hear "my character is alot of fun" it translates to " I play a huge whore".

The girl that plays "Annie Mills" (Shenae Grimes) looks disturbingly similar to the lead singer from REO Speedwagon, Kevin Cronin.

And all the other "kids" look about as old as that MILF, Lori Loughlin...

they can promote this shit all they want. I won't watch.

There is no way in hell Kelly Taylor would be a HS Guidance Counselor.....that showed me how shitty this show will be.

If this the new 90210 hired Shannen Doherty (Brenda) it would only be a matter of time before they fired her cause she was fired from the original 90210 and Charmed.

Please, 90210 was pretty racy for it's time, no? Especially since there were 12-13 year olds fawning over grown ass men.

EXACTLY!!! LMAO

I'm gonna have to pass on this holy hell revival.
