BEVERLY HILLS 90210
90210 WAS
A BORE!
"90210 has sort of become like watching your parents age before your eyes. Sad, slow, depressing and inevitable. I think it suffers from terminal
Alzheimers.
(And YET I keep watching - ever the hopeful child.)" -Rich5521

90210: SO SICK OF DONNA!
"Did anyone watch last night? I am SOOOOOO sick of Donna! I totally cannot
believe she brushed off Irv, or whatever his name was, for Loserboy! I can't
believe she had the guts to turn to him at dinner and ask him to leave when
butthead came strolling in drunk as a skunk! If any of those boys at the table
had been men, they would have picked him up and carried him back out onto the
street where he belongs!! The pity party is way too old for Loserboy! DH and I
are hoping they'll get rid of him soon!! " -April

ALCOHOL USE ON 90210
"Correct me if I'm wrong......but aren't David, Kelly, Donna and Dylan
recovering addicts? I mean Dylan was doing heroin, Donna was into pills, Kelly
was in rehab and David ( I can't remember....what his addiction is). Let's get
real, how many recovering heroin addicts hang out in bars drinking booze and
stay clean? " - WPBJAZZGIRL

90210? - WHO OWNED THE
PEACH PIT AFTER DARK?
"Okay, all you 90210 fans out there (especially the ones currently watching
on FX). I have a question. It's about something that bugs me every time we reach
this point in the series. WHO owned the Peach Pit After Dark? The way I remember
it, NAT owned the building. Steve (?) approached Nat and suggested that they use
the building for a Rave when they were in college." -Songbird313

90210 GRADUATION - MORE
SILLY QUESTIONS
"Did you ever wonder if when 90210 was first written that they chose the
last names of the characters with graduation seating in mind? Okay, I know that
sounds stupid. But how else would Andrea Zuckerman be on the very end of the
front row sitting right next to Brenda and Brandon Walsh? (And Andrea was
therefore the last to receive her diploma so she, the valedictorian, raised her
diploma to her class and then "conducted" the class in the final stand
and toss of the caps?) Not to mention the fact that I've never seen a graduation
ceremony with the alphabet starting at the BACK and ending at the FRONT!"

MISSING BEVERLY HILLS 90210?
"Does anybody else really miss 90210? Watching the reruns on FX makes me
wonder what the cast is up to now. I know that Jennie Garth is going to be on
The Street for a guest run starting this week, but what about everyone else on
the show? Does anyone know if any of the other cast members are going to be on
anything? I also wonder if anyone knows what happened to Kathleen Robertson that
played Clair. Has anyone seen her on anything or know what she has done since
she left the show? " -JGAGNON12

FLASHBACK 90210 - STEVE'S
HOMOPHOBIA
"Anybody else out there remember the episode when Steve found out the
president of his fraternity was gay? It was on yesterday. Every time I see that
episode I get so PISSED at Steve I can't stand it! He panicked when he saw the
guy but didn't let on that he had seen him. But when he offered him a cafe latte
he acted like the guy was asking him for sex!!! There was one line that ran
through my mind throughout the whole episode and it bugged me that nobody said
it. They all liked the guy, he was president of the fraternity. Just cuz he
likes guys changes who he is?? He's still the same guy! I will never get over
Steve being so ignorant. And when the fraternity brother started teasing him and
calling him girly names Steve just HAD to tell the truth. "It just slipped
out." Oh brother! " -SongBird313

PARTY OF FIVE
PARTY OF FIVE QUESTION
"...I missed something. Why did Holly marry Will instead of Bailey? I know
it was to get her green card. I just don't understand why she and Bailey didn't
get married since they are the ones involved. Now they're having to play this
stupid game and Will is falling for Holly." - Songbird313

REAL WORLD NEW ORLEANS
REAL WORLD NEW ORLEANS
"Well, I , like you LOVE the Real World! But I was surprised at how much of
the show was shown about "Julie"(I think that was her name)The one
that attends the Mormon school. Equally surprised at how all the guys seem to
have these feelings for her already.I know they play certain times on each of
them, but it seemed like every other"exchange" was between her and
someone else.I thought the house was great,and the one who is going to annoy me
I think is the small dark haired girl.It was only the first episode....."

REAL WORLD NEW ORLEANS
"Why does everyone think Melissa, the girl with the dark hair, is going to
be annoying? Because she's spunky and opinionated and something other than a
boring blond? I think she'll add some life to the show. I don't want every
episode to be about Julie, the little Mormon girl. Now THAT would be
annoying!" --MWISSING

REAL WORLD NO: MELISSA MADNESS!
"They should just change the title of the show! I originally thought she
has some "issues", I was mistaken-- she is an issue! She first talks
again of her being the center of attention. To me she is being an aggravation.
Perhaps she would like some cheese with her whine. I am totally behind people
having issues and feelings, but hers are self created I think. First she goes
out with this guy "Frat Matt". She treats him horrible the WHOLE time
she is with him. Then, for some unknown reason (probably to be on the show) he
asked her out again to go to his birthday party. She does a repeat horrible
behavior performance and wonders WHY he isnt calling her again. She again
complains of a guy like him not asking her out, but duh, he did ask her out-
TWICE! I hope that future shows allow the other house members to be seen as well
as her. I know I sound harsh against her but I just couldnt take her anymore
tonight! :o) " --STETSNGRL1

REAL WORLD NEW ORLEANS:
RACISM?
Do you think that Racism is what the big focus is going to be on this season?
Seems that everywhere we turn Melissa is getting upset by one comment or
another. I feel really bad for her, but not being in that position, I wonder if
she's just wound a bit too tight, or if she's just reacting as anyone would?

YOUNG AMERICANS
YOUNG AMERICANS...ANYONE
WATCHING?
"I'm enjoying the show.. The story with the girl/boy identity is very
good.. The find that the girl is naturally masculine.. She has a deep voice and
her facial features aren't feminine... I never thought she was really a boy from
the beginning but now that the story is 'out' I'm having trouble seeing her as a
female... The actors are pulling this story line off beautifully.. I think that
we're going to find out that Bella and Scout aren't really related... I don't
think it will happen for ages, but I strongly believe this is the twist.. Maybe
a season cliff hanger... I'm wondering if Ryder is the bastard he portrays...
hmmmm... I think the show is a 'keeper'... How about you?" - JAN

YOUNG AMERICANS: SEASON
FINALE
"...I caught last nights show too.. wonder if it's gonna come back or just
fade away.. the ratings weren't too good from some article I saw, but I thought
it was an ok show.. just needs a little time to grab on...just a few weeks isn't
enough and to bring it on in the summer when many don't watch TV isn't
fair" - Hawkeyez

POPULAR
WHAT IS THIS POPULAR YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT?
"POPULAR premiered as a new TV show on the WB last year. It is an hour long
comedy about a group of high school students. The main focus of the show is the
competition between two classes of kids. The pretty blond popular girl's dad
falls for the mother of the not-so-popular brunette girl's mother and they all
end up moving in together causing a great rivalry as the girls hope to split
their parents up. " - SONGBIRD313

POPULAR: GET A LITTLE MORE
CREATIVE!
"I think the make-up department could use a little more creativity in the
"make everyone look ill" department. It seemed that Harrison, his
roommate, Brooke and the Angela's all had the same pale faces with dark brown
make-up under their eyes. They just looked a little TOO made up. And is it a
given that nobody in rehab brushes their hair??

GILMORE GIRLS: OVERDONE
ACTING?
"Does Lorelei (mom) seem to be overacting to you? She's too loud/shrill and
acts far too much like a stereotypic teenager. I'm disappointed with this
woman's lack of acting talents. She's a beautiful woman and looks so much like
the daughter that it should be the natural progression of things to have her the
chosen actress, but her acting is just so over done that I find it distracting.

TITANS
DISAPPOINTED IN TITANS
"I was very disappointed in the show. After watching Melrose and 90210 for
all those years - what happened to Mr. Spelling? He has gone back to his Dynasty
days for this one. I don't think I will be watching it unless I am really bored.
I don't like Victoria Principal (sp) but I do like Josie (from 90210). Not
everyone can wear their hair that short and still be beautiful. But this is my
opinion and I am anxious to see what other people think." -DEEH61
