Man this takes me backApril 1, 2008 Watching this movie makes one see how you can get addicted to the show. When the show first started granted some of the stuff was unbelivable but it got better. It's amazing how much the show changed in the second season everything from fashion and haircuts to the cast and opening titles. The cast was great. Watch it for nostgala sake.

I made the mistake and bought the pilot + season1. Now I have the pilot twice...
cover complaintApril 12, 2006 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I just wanted to point out that sticking Doug Emerson's head on Luke Perry's body on the cover photo is weird and stupid. (Luke Perry doesn't show up until the first regular episode of the series.) Why not just use a different photo? The photo used is from a season two promo shoot anyway (when Doug Emerson was no longer in the cast). It's kind of an insult to think we won't notice that the photo has been doctored. Dumb.
Otherwise, I'd recommend this pilot movie. The show had so much potential at this point. They even attempt to give the teachers some screen time and Kelly and Donna have multicultural friends in their clique -- to name a couple of the elements the pilot has that the series lacked.
Need 90210 on DVD alreadyApril 5, 2006 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I agree with those who wrote before that we need to have the series (one of the best in my opinion) out on DVD already. The Pilot DVD is great and fun to watch. A good buy. I remember staying home to watch the show and I planned my schedule for the next 10 years around the show. I was addicted to say the least.
The latest that I heard was that since the series used alot of popular, top 40 songs, they are having to get permission from each artists before the DVDs can be released. Don't know how much weight there is in this, but it's the latest info I could find.
stupidest show.February 18, 2006 2 out of 18 found this review helpful
Just like the OC, rich kids r portrayed as having many many & many problems. I was in my teens when the series aired. Even when i was a teen, I thought to myself, "this is the stupidest show ever and so unrealistic." Every show portrayed the actors has having problems after problems. Examples : my mother whose a famous fashiion designer is a crackhead, my friend played w/ a gun and accidentally shot himself dead (this was the stupidest episode by far), my friend died during a drive by at UCLA, i'm a teen and i have breast cancer, i'm a drunk, i'm a drug user, we moved to 90210 but my mom is a housewife, my father forces me to work even though i'm rich and i live in Beverly Hills. Whoever wrote the series doesn't know anything. Yeah, a mother whose a housewife in Beverly Hills. I remember a show where the group went to a underground rave and they didn't even play the right music for a rave scene. Stupid. S-T-U-P-I-D.
