But this time, instead of the common goal of “blowing off school” - or in Beverly Hills, 90210’s case, “becoming teen heartthrobs” - they’re hanging out so they can try making a TV show together.
Think of it as a high school reunion: A bunch of people who hung out together when they were young are hanging out again. “He’s with us in our hearts all the time, so it’s kind of like he’s here.” “We have honored him and dealt with it in really respectful ways,” Jennie Garth told TVLine. BH90210 will pay tribute to Perry in other ways, too. But Shannen Doherty, who originally wasn’t going to be part of the reboot, changed her mind after Perry’s death, telling TV Line she did it “to honor Luke.” Doherty will also guest star on Riverdale’s tribute episode airing October 19.
Perry, who played Dylan McKay for eight seasons and more recently starred in Riverdale, didn’t sign on for the new reboot and died from a stroke in March at age 52. It’s a reality show, except entirely scripted. It’s like the Kardashians of the Keeping Up with the Kardashians Christmas episode versus the regular Keeping Up with the Kardashians Kardashians. Brian Austin Green and Jason Priestly even have fictional wives played by La La Anthony and Vanessa Lachey, respectively. Or, as Shannen Doherty calls it “a revival set in a reboot.” Instead of playing Brenda, Brandon, Kelly, and so forth, the actors will be playing dramatized versions of themselves. Shannen Doherty, Jason Priestley, Jennie Garth, Tori Spelling, Brian Austin Green, Ian Ziering, and Gabrielle Carteris are all returning to make the reboot.
