BH90210 just ended its first season, but will there be a second? Recently, stars Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the future of the FOX TV show.
The reunion series follows the stars of the original Beverly Hills 90210 as they “play highly fictionalized versions of themselves reuniting to reboot the original series.” The cast includes Spelling, Garth, Jason Priestley, Shannen Doherty, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, and Brian Austin Green.
WARNING: BH90210 FINALE SPOILERS AHEAD!
In the interview, Spelling revealed there are plans for a second season of BH90210 should FOX renew the series:
We definitely wanted to keep it very meta, as the whole show has been. In our minds, writing the last episode was foreshadowing another season. Going forward, the second season would be more laser-focused on the reboot. So the fans would get a much bigger percentage of us playing ourselves and our characters from the original 90210 as we would dive into what the reboot would look like.”
Later, Spelling also teased a possible casting change-up for season two:
We’ll have to keep who it is a mystery. Maybe they’ll all be back, who knows? Here’s the thing, I feel like we left it as a cliffhanger. We said the stalker set the fires, but we never admitted to the stalker that they caught at the red dress doing the mutilated dolls or any of the other creepy things that were happening to them. So that’s open-ended.”
And what about Jennie and Jason? Will they get together? Garth said:
[Penny] was really great to work with and we were all sad to see him go, and it happened really quickly. But we realized it was episode 6 and we need to leave the lane open for Brandon and Kelly, potentially, if we go forward. Doing the hotel scene with Jason was hilarious. We would just look at each other and say, “Okay, let’s do this!” It was fun, for sure.”
What do you think? Have you seen BH90210? Would you watch a second season?
Loved the original, love the new bh90210, please have a second season!!!!
Yes, I’ve been watching and was confused at 1st but now really enjoy it, bring on season 2
Love the reunion show! All of the cast should return for the continuation. I’m addicted…again 🙂
Please please please bring back season 2
Yes! I would watch a season 2 ! Loved it
PLEASE BRING BACK BH90210…ITS MY FAVIORTE SHOW..IS THE ONE THING I LOOK FORWARD TO WATCHING IT EVERY WEEK PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE BRING BH90210 BACK
I want a 2nd season so badly. I would love to see where it picks up and that Jennie and Jason aka Kelly and Brandon get together. They were and always will be my favorite couple on the show.
This show is the perfect, meta-odd, endearing wonderful continuation of the original that I never knew I needed but now that I have it please please please make another season! The fusing of the “real” actors with elements of their characters from the old show is so well put together. Just yes, more of this.
I love this show I think it was really good I hope there are more seasons. They just should have done a better tribute to Luke Perry a few minutes at the end of episode 1 didn’t seem like much of a tribute to him.
I totally agree! I watched all the coverage and interviews I could find before the reboot came out! In all of them they talk about this great, touching tribute they did for Luke Perry, and honestly, if you weren’t glued to the screen, you may have missed it! He deserved so much more than than the few seconds of memory he got.
I think this show is excellent. A genius of an idea. Way to go Tori Spelling. Wonderful way to bring real life of the cast up to date. Really enjoy the entire cast. Hope this show runs on and on. Each character is so real and well done.
Yes bring on season Two!!!!!
I really like the premise of the show and hope it gets renewed for a second season. Maybe it’s nostalgia, but I love seeing the old cast together, and the duality of the fictionalized characters they play of themselves and the characters of the “old” show. The side stories have potential, and the catalyst for drama between the married couples is only starting to heat up. I’d like to see where they go with it, and if it can be sustained for more than the six episodes. Good luck!
‘BH90210’ was a fun show, but the novelty quickly wore off. The reboot should remain a one-and-done.
NO THEIR NEEDS TO BE A ANOTHER SEASON IS JUST GETTING GOOD
Oh I definitely would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE more BH90210!!!!! I miss Luke Perry but I love the cast and the way they are playing this!!!
Yes, yes, yes!!!! We need more BH90210!
