Shenae Grimes is horrible.
Adrianna went from being my most hated character to my favorite character.

Same here.

Where is the Grandma? Is she going to be like the dog on the Brady Bunch or Chuck from Happy Days?

Jessica Walter was dropped after her original 13 episode contract expired.

I was under the impression she was coming back though as a guest star (or may that was before the new show runners took over?).

What was that end scene? Annie is driving. I was expecting her to crash, but she just stops. She looks at the booze & then drives off, just as another car stops where she was just stopped. What was the point of that?

Holy shit, Annie was just horrible this week. Grimes can't act for shit and I can't believe they're keeping her around.

There was something in the road. Looked like a deer or something but I couldn't tell. It's probably going to be a did she kill somebody storyline next season.

IIRC, they said someone would be killed but would not be known until next season.

There was a rumor that Silver was going to commit suicide. Guess they changed their minds.

I was rotfl when she screamed out after she got booted from the party. Pure comedy. Then the supposed hit and run clliffhanger. :lol:

This show is a trainwreck, but I can't stop watching.

I do like having Naomi's older sister around as a vixen bitch though.

I wonder who was in the Lexus(?) who drove up to whatever(whoever) was hit by Annie(loud thumping noise before she slams the brakes-it seems some may have missed this audio cue). It had a wbhhs bumper sticker. Though it wasn't the classic convertible porsche a Dylan McKay once drove, it did remind me of it.

Re: 90210 -- Season Finale -- "One Party Can Ruin Your Whole Summer" -- 5/19/09
 
I heard the thump when she stopped, but when she drove off, it looked like a tree log or a rock or something. Didn't really look like a body to me.

Didn't look like a body to me either.

The scream was horrendously bad acting. I could not stop laughing at it.

So, if Ethan isn't coming back, how are they getting rid of him?

I can't believe I am a 28 year old guy talking about another CW high school teen drama. I must have some unresolved issues.

It was totally a body...otherwise they likely wouldn't have done it. If it was not, why would the classic Benz stop where the object was?

I'm gonna say it will be Ethan who was out drinking because of what happened or Jim Walsh.

90210 - "To New Beginnings" - 9/8/09
 
http://craignj.files.wordpress.com/2...pg?w=462&h=357

Plot:

The group of friends from West Beverly were forced to attend summer school after Annie called the police on Naomi's after-prom party. Naomi, Silver and Adrianna have formed a close friendship over the summer, while Annie has isolated herself from her friends and family, worried about her hit-and-run accident on prom night. For the remainder of the summer, everyone hangs out at the Beverly Hills Beach Club, where Naomi and Silver meet Teddy (guest star Trevor Donovan, "Days of Our Lives"), a pro-tennis player and the son of a famous movie star. Adrianna is surprised to see her childhood boyfriend and Navid organizes a romantic evening with Adrianna, with hopes of finally losing his virginity. Dixon and Silver try to make their relationship work but a text message may force Dixon to ends things once and for all. Rob Estes, Lori Loughlin and Ryan Eggold also star

I thought the 1st season actually got better after a really rough start. This is probably the 1st show where I think the supporting characters (Adrianna, Silver and Naomi) are actually far surperior than the lead (Annie)

I initally thought AnnaLynne McCord was awful as Naomi, but she actually grew much more likeable than Shenae Grimes, who is fucking awful IMO.

Hopefully they got all the kinks out of the 1st season.

I read that Jennie Garth will once again recur as Kelly.

Annie and Dixon really suck the life out of the show.

Re: 90210 - "To New Beginnings" - 9/8/09
 
Grimes is just so horrible in this role (I stop short of saying a horrible actress because I haven't seen her in anything else) Everybody else I'm fine with. Adrianna really turned into probably my favorite character last season after I started out not being able to stand her character.

I agree with Timber. Adrianna has become my favorite on the show.

I wish Stroup would gain back some of her pre-90210 weight-loss because she looked very good back then (just look at the start of the first True Blood episode to see Stroup looking less like a bulimic school girl, with actual curves).

Yeah the douche bag is gone. Good riddance too. Probably one of the worst leading males for a teen drama.

The other douche bag is still on, right? The one that was the bartender at Naomi's hotel.

Yeah, shame is the actor is really funny and a good guy in real life.

Lowndes looks hotter then last season, looks like she put up some good weight.

Started out like it was going to be a fun show but god did Annie suck the life out of it. Fortunately they kept her screen time to a minimum.

mdc3000 09-08-09 10:58 PM

Re: 90210 - "To New Beginnings" - 9/8/09
 
Annie sucks. Adrianna looked hotter than ever...but the CW is getting out of control with advertising their own shit during a show. It was bad enough when it was just their huge logo - then they started adding white/translucent text - now they've had the balls to put a fucking black box underneath that text and make it bigger - when the entire bottom right third of the screen is your logo/advertising, it makes me never want to watch you show - it really ruined A LOT of shots.

yeah last season the CW had what I felt was the worst screen bug of all the networks but they really have taken it to another level with the black box. The strange thing is that the "CW" part of the logo is now a much nicer light grey vs the bright white of last season.

errrr but that HUGE black box is just ridiculous! I just picked random eye candy for the example caps below but that logo messed up every shot on the show. I also don't understand why networks are placing the logos in a pan/scan "right side" of the screen, on HD widescreen 16x9 shows. Making in way too close to the middle. meh..

Talk about a huge step backwards.... I thought the digital switch over would have ended the pan/scan logo placements.

Wonder how long they'll drag out the plot of people thinking Annie slept with the guy (who actually slept with Naomi's sister) since it only takes one line from the guy to disprove the whole rumor.
