Re: 90210 -- Season Premiere -- "Senior Year, Baby" -- 09/13/10
After checking out the season premiere, this show is on low-priority viewing for me, mainly because the characters are pretty uninteresting, and the new characters are worse. At least Jessica Stroup looks to have regain some weight on her frame after getting so skinny last season trying to look like a teenager, though she's 5-6 years older than Silver is on the show.
Edited: I was right about the weight gain:

I could have swore they started out as sophomores. While David and the blond kid that shot himself were freshmen.

Shit, I was looking forward to it and it was boring. I hate Teddy and the other new character they added. Too much Annie, too much awkward Dixon and Ivy and even Adrianna, my favorite, was put into a stupid storyline.

I'm almost positive they identify the principles as Juniors early on. Besides, Brandon, Dylan, Steve, Kelly, etc were driving in the first season, so they had to be Juniors unless the driving age in CA is 15.

Ratings weren't great for this either. 2.0M viewers and 0.9 in the demos. According to this story, it's the highest since an episode last December.
Bad premiere creatively IMO. Gossip Girl was much better.
And it's not going to get any better. The majority of the premieres like Chuck, The Event, Castle and Hawaii Five-O start next week.

I'm still almost positive that they are identified as juniors initially.

I think Red Dog is right. Everything I'm reading is saying they started out as Juniors in season 1 with David and Scott being Freshman. Season 2 had them as Juniors again but David and Scott were somehow Sophomores. So David seemingly graduated in 3 years while it took the others 5 years.

Has it been revealed why Teddy, who is clearly a 47 year old, is going to a High School yet?
OK premiere. Annie wasn't as annoying as she has been in the past, yet I still wish for her death.

90210 -- "Age of Inheritance" -- 09/20/10

Call me crazy but I really like Silver's haircut.
Again call me crazy but even with the ton of things on tonight I'm still sticking with this and Gossip Girl. House, HIMYM, Lone Star and DWTS (until Bristol and Audrina leave then I'll have no desire to watch it) will have to be viewed by other means.

A little late, but finally watched this Awful episode.
Jen is so selfish and materialistic. Even though she's supposedly his baby mama, I can't believe that Ryan has sympathy for this woman. And she has a personal assistant?
All the couples that they attempt to pair up, with the exception of Adrianna and Navid, just don't work at all.
for stupid ass Dixon having body shots done off him and it getting posted to facebook for Ivy to see.
Naomi's birthday party was a freaking joke. Counterfeit invitations? Carboard cutouts of her? I wonder how much Adrian Grenier got paid for that non-speaking part?
The whole plot with creepy rapist teacher, Silver and Naomi is such a trainwreack. And Annie's new love interest is conveniently Liam's brother? Ha! This show is more fun to make fun of each week. Definitely does not have the charm or magic of it's predecessor.

The biggest problem is Dixon....here's a guy who was banging a 20-something hottie before...now he's all in love with a regular ho hum chick....then he apparently gets free reign in a bar as a Sr in HS and then bachelorettes want to do body shots off you and you're worried about losing your regular ho hum boring chick to some Aussie douche afterwords because of facebook (yeah, I know he didn't know at the time, but still, please spare me this nonsense)? I'd say if I lived his life, fuck it.
These writers are idiots. I truly believe everyone writing for the CW soaps now are idiots. Between this crap, random dance routines in the middle of Memphis, and coma dreams, it's hard not to believe they're not on crack.

Okay, that was probably the best damn take I've read on any CW show.

90210 -- The 3rd season thread -- Monday's on The CW
By djariya at 2010-09-03
Synopsis for 2021 Vision:
Spoiler:
This is my least favorite CW soap and episodes 1 and 2 sucked ass, but I have a soft spot for Adrianna and Navid, so I will continue to watch because of them. But, this gets demoted to a season thread. Most likely I will be bitching about how stupid this week's episode is as well.

Meh. I'm out. There isn't even enjoyment in the crappiness of the show anymore and I found myself paying attention more to the MNF game on my 2nd TV. I just wish this was 9 so I could open up a tuner, but 8-9 wasn't an issue for me to begin with.

The characters are ok but the storylines suck
The rapist teacher story is stupid. Adrianna story is stupid. Gay Teddy story is stupid. Dixon story is stupid
