UPDATE: The Beverly Hills, 90210 Spinoff 90210 (CW/CBS Paramount), a slam dunk pickup, is hiring writers at the CW. I hear the deal is closed with Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah to run the show, and the script is being rewritten. Original alum Jennie Garth is joining. I bet Ian Ziering would pay the network to be cast…
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.


Call me crazy but I think this is actually going to work! They should have done a remake of that show a while ago.
I am predicting it will be DOA.. Why because this is the CW a network no one watches. The CW will find a way to trash this show up like they did with Gossip Girl….
I’m sure it will premiere big (well, big for the CW) because of the old BHers and new people checking it out, but it will fall quickly thereafter unless it’s very good.
Can’t wait for this to come back and to see how its been updated.! And TV Fan – I dont think CW has trashed up Gossip Girl as you say – might have a hard time finding an audience but the show gets great reviews.
I think it will launch good then get lost UPN at a time did a good job launching several shows Dilbert, Star Trek Voyager, Enterprise, and Love Boat the Next Wave to name a few….Their only problem is they can spend a bunch at start advertising outside their network to get new eyeballs then about 3 or 4 weeks in the $$$ will dry up and being they can only advertise on their net a net that gets few eyes the show will drop to their norm 2 to 3 mill range.
The CW even did a good job of getting everyone to talk about Gossip Girl w/ their OMFG campaign…for 2 weeks every news outlet talked about so they even got alot of free advertising
How do I get on that writing staff? I’d love to write for THAT show!
Sounds like a DeGrassi wannabe, but it might work. We’ll see.
