So, I just watched a 30 second promo for 90210 and the only thing I cared about was seeing Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth. I think Jennie actually had an extra 1.5 seconds of air time so Shannen will probably destroy a trailer or something. Honestly, I am going to TiVo the show and just skip past everything but Shannen and Jennie. I’m pretty sure some YouTube genius will do it for me if I wait long enough.I’m just not that interested in the new 90210. To me, the people they are trying to attract never even watched the original 90210 during its first run and so to them it is just a new show. Sure, they may have an older sibling or even a parent who told them about it, and so they have heard the name, but I doubt they have the entire box set sitting in their house which they have repeatedly watched.

I want to see Shannen and Jennie. I want Shannen to be popular again and stalked by paps. I want to see her go through five more marriages and to sleep with all the guys on the show. I want Jennie to have that reputation for being nice, but in reality someone you never want to screw with. Ever.

Judging by their on screen appearances in the promo, I think we will be lucky to get 5 minutes an episode with Jennie and Shannen. Does anyone even know about the other cast members? Has anyone seen any of them being talked about or interviewed? No, because no one cares yet. People will care after the show airs, but for now it is Shannen and Jennie and a lot of memories.
