90210 Stars Remember Sex, Fame and Feuding

Just in time for the CW's revamped 90210 the Times has gathered together simmering drifty-eyed beauty Shannen Doherty and whoever else was on that show with her to discuss the good old days of the incredibly important 1990s soap opera.

Kids Today Are Crazy and On the Internet, Especially in Beverly Hills

Though still not guaranteed to go to series, plot and character details about the CW's planned Beverly Hills: 90210 remake, were revealed by Variety last night. The show will focus on a drunk old actress whose son moves in with her to take care of her. He brings his athletic wife and two kids, Annie (an "emo/theatre kid" oh! theatre!) and Dixon (troubled but smart "bad boy"). Also there's an internet girl who is an "aspiring socialite," a socially disgraced athlete, and a brother and sister duo whose last name is Silver, just like Brian Austin Green's David. It sounds awful and "hip" and "modern" (the internet barely, if ever, belongs on television), but hopefully creator/writer Rob Thomas (Veronica Mars) will add a little bit of a texture to the whole affair. More detailed character descriptions of the kids (who really cares about the adults?) after the jump. More »
