With the news that there’s to be a new Beverly Hills 90210 for the noughties, I got to reminiscing.
The Peach Pit; teenagers DRIVING THEMSELVES TO SCHOOL (surely there was nothing more glamorous to us in pre-Celtic Tiger Ireland?); the fact the beaut.ie mammy couldn’t get the names of the Walsh offspring correct and habitually referred to them as Brenda and Brendan; the fact that Dylan was patently about 40 years old, not to mention the expanses of pale, pale denim for days. But the worst thing – yes, girls, far worse than poor staid, strait-laced Jim and Cindy, distraught about Brandon and Dylan’s 330ml cans of low-alcohol Budweiser drinking and Old Maid-style ‘gambling’ habits – was the hair and makeup.
Someone in wardrobe on that set had a hairdryer set to stun, and she used it. Oh boy, did she use it. Hands up who remembers Steve Sanders’ curly mullet? Dylan’s ‘quiff’? Brenda’s ghostly face of death plus matte brown lipstick combo? Donna’s shocking bouffant dos and heavy slap? Frumpy Andrea’s horrid glasses and shite, shite barnet?
Ah, it had it all. Except blusher. Those poor bitches had divil a bit of definition on their Pansticked faces.
Roll on 90210 2.0!

Oh don’t you just love Shannon Dohert’s high high waisted jeans in this piccie??! (PS: but where’s Luke Perry? He was just the bee’s knees back in the day wasn’t he?)
Oh BH 90210 how brilliant it was!! Saturday evenings havent been the same since ha ha.Ive started collecting it on DVD and love watching it when the boyf goes out (sad life that i have)
Ah, I see poor Scott in the pictures. Do you remember he was shot dead (might have been David Silver who did it)? A single tear rolls down my cheek.
i wasnt allowed watch this, my big sis was but i wasnt
The thing I remember most about this is bad boy Dylan – he was about 35 but he was pretending to be 16! It was RID-iculous!
Oh. Dear. God. Shannen must have the most extreme case of camel toe I’ve ever seen.
Would you look at stupid Jason Priestley trying to look all dewy-eyed and smouldering and sexy eyebrows….*PUKE*
oh janey the camel-toe!!!!
BEST SHOW EVER! It did get a bit silly and far-fetched in the later years – I mean, Kelly going out with Dylan?! No way, she was far too much of a square.
Our home phone number when I was growing up actually included the numbers “90210″ and I thought that made me the coolest person in Ireland. Plus, I have a twin brother so I practically WAS Brenda.
Jesus those JEANS….my eyes feel like they’ve been mugged. At the time of course it was the acme of hipness…I was never gonna be that cool. Jesus help me.
Brilliant post Kirstie.
Leigh I know. My eyes…I mean Shannon is a slim girl and those make her look HUGE! Thankfuly no one is dressed as badly as Lisa from Saved by the Bell…that girl loved her shoulder pads.
I was in love with Luke Perry!

Think (hope for SD) that is the seam of the jeans. God but those waists are high. Nappy jeans
OMG. I can’t believe I used to want to look like them! I was desperate to dress like Brenda… Jesus!
Haha – tina I was just thinking the same thing!
Jaysus, can’t wait for the new series though, hope it isn’t a complete pile of crap
