Unlike the Aaron Spelling original, BH90210 is meta, knowing, and interested in what fame, or post-fame, looks like at middle age. But it’s also the same in that it’s soapy and silly. chaneyj writes
Reunited: Brian Austin Green, Gabrielle Carteris, Jason Priestley, Ian Ziering, Jennie Garth, and Tori Spelling in BH90210. Photo: Shane Harvey/FOX If you were alive in the early 1990s, and, especially, under the age of 30, you probably watched Beverly Hills, 90210. If you were a discerning viewer at that time, you probably realized that 90210 was not a good show, but nevertheless, you loved it anyway.
There is also a tinge of melancholy hanging over this enterprise, particularly the first episode, because of a sad fact: Luke Perry, who played sensitive bad boy Dylan McKay, died of a stroke earlier this year and can’t be there alongside his former cast members. He is acknowledged in the premiere, which airs Wednesday night, and honored with a toast and a closing shot of Dylan McKay in his prime.
This can get awkward. BH Jason Priestley and BH Jennie Garth, who played romantic partners Brandon Walsh and Kelly Taylor, don’t get along at all … until they really get along. . BH Tori Spelling — who, like actual Tori Spelling, played Donna Martin, is now the mother of multiple young children, and has milked the reality-TV circuit for all its worth — is nervous about seeing BH David Austin Green, who played the David to her Donna on 90210 and is married to a famous woman.
If this were, say, the HBO version of BH90210, the series would probably lean extra-hard into the sense of ennui that hangs over these characters, who have moved on but also can’t quite. You could say that they’re stuck in Purgatory 90210.
