Older‘90210′ — The Reviews Are In!
The first reviews are in from last nigiht’s two-hour premiere of the much-buzzed-about 90210. Check it.
“90210 is a perfectly competent and reasonably seamless revival that understands what made the original tick (and tick and tick), while being infused (occasionally suffused) with enough contemporary touchstones to remind new viewers that this isn’t their parents’ (or at least older siblings’) trusty fave… 90210 is not a disaster, and the CW can now officially let out a deep sigh … of relief.” — Newsday
“More than just a famous zip code, 90210 is easily the most hyped show of the fall season and the CW is banking on all of the buzz to draw in big ratings. This spinoff, eight years after the first series ended, is a pallid copy of the original fish out of water story only with shinier cars, fancier clothes and Botox aplenty.” — Variety
“All the expected ingredients were there: gorgeous teens, lots of style and extravagance, raging hormones, and always the potential for backstabbing, broken hearts and payback. Same old, same old at West Beverly Hills High School.”– AP
WHAT DID YOU THINK of the two-hour premiere of 90210 — YAY or NAY?

IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!! I LOVE THE CAST! There’s not one person that I don’t like.
omg!! just finish it!! is was HOT!! love it!!
I have to say, given that I was a fan of the original, this version is very mature and well written, not a carbon copy at all. Loved the premiere, can’t wait for more.
naomi is fugly
YAY. I really really like it. It was so good to see Brenda
All teen shows are a remake of the original 90210, including Gossip Girl. None of them do anything new or interesting, but they’re just fun to watch because they’re so mindless. This was no different.
I didn’t catch the premiere but I did watch the second half. So far, it’s okay, there is nothing that blew me away. It was kind of blah, but I’ll give it a chance and watch it again next Tuesday. However, One Tree Hill had the BEST season premiere! Gossip Girl was alright, nothing ‘wow’ about it.
* I thought it was really good. You can’t compare the old vs. new. Different styles.
* The story line was pretty good.
* The one part that I hated was when they mentioned the unknown child and they didn’t the show the father telling his wife. I thought this was the POW scene throughout the night but they didn’t really deliver the scene like it should have been.
Overall: 7/10. Better acting (which should evolve) would make it an 8.5/10.
Horrible compared to the original. I only needed to see it once to decide I wont be watching it any further.
that Ty Collins guy is hot you know! even hotter than the ethan guy!
I really like the new 90210 and I still love the original one.Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill were great last night also.CW has some cool shows :)
I liked it. It was the pilot so I am sure it will just get better. I like the character Naomi. So far she seems like the only one who is not so one dimensional but I am sure the other characters will become more intriguing as time goes on (hopefully). I still like Gossip Girl better but to be fair that show has been on a lot longer and its pilot wasn’t that great. So hopefully it will just get better. And love seeing Brenda and Kelly!!
This show was pretty bad I did not like it at all, i will continue to watch it to see if anything is good about it..
So far it appeals to what it wants teens with no common sense.
you go kids!
I didn’t watch it, I really did not care for it, but I congrats for all the good reviews. I’ll just stick to my One Tree Hill!
Idk .. it wasn’t anything special .. I mean don’t get me wrong i love shows like this .. But it’s like what’s new .. ? Guy cheats on girl . blah blah blah .. same old story .
The only reason i watched it cuz Kellan Lutz who plays Emmet in Twilight was in it ! .. and looked amazing!
as did that other guy i forgot his name though.
but not nearly as great as GG or OTH.
honestly - such a disappointment.
90210 needs a longer break to wait until gossip girl gets off the air.
It was so-so. Brenda and Kellie were fab but the rest? Not so much
When the CW first announced the 90210 spin-off, i wasn’t really interested at all. But when they announced Annalynne McCord was cast in the show, i just had to watch it because of her role in nip/tuck (a must-see). Beautiful and talented actress. I expect great things from her in the future.
I really enjoyed the premiere, and I think the series has real potential for the CW.

I didn’t like it or hate it. Which is an improvement over the original which I did not like at all. I just thought it was totally unnessecary and inconsequental. Which means it’s a perfect for the CW. I won’t be spending anymore time on it.
I will say I through about an hour and twenty mintues of the two pilot as opposed to the pilot of “Gossip Girl” of which I watched exactly one second of and never went back. So I would say 90210 part Deux is an improvement.
I think this is way better than the original, the original was stil good dont get me wrong, but just the acting in the new 90210 is so much better the original was like come on people are you in drama class i can act better than that. But now real actors are playing parts. I thought it was hilarious to see Andrea’s daughter and then mr mathews saying what is she 30, considering Andrea was 30 when she stared in that show LOL!!!!!!!
anyways the show was fricken fantastic and i am sorry to say it but 90210 and Gossip Girl are very different shows by far, you cant really compare them, they may be fromt he same genre but the way the show is done completely different, they each are great in their respective ways.
i thought it started out a little slow but after about 15 minutes i was really getting into it and i actually reallt liked it!
It was good but nothing like the original. Brenda and Kelly needed more air time. They didn’t do much and looked out of place. This is definetly a teen movie for teens that are bored and have nothing to do. I see it being just like the O.C. It will probably last a little while till all the hype is over about it. They should bring Dylan and Brandon back on the show for an appearance to boost the ratings! Well I will be watching the two hour premiere of America’s Next Top Model tonight. See how that one goes!
I was faithful to the original and I watched this one. I personally thought it was boring and the same old recycled crap that’s on every other teen show. I didn’t give a rat’s ass about any of the characters. Two HUGE thumbs down.
Well, I liked it. Now if only they’d revival of Melrose Place…
