90210: No Longer a Spelling-Free Zip?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Rumors,
Tori Spelling is rumored to be in talks, again, with the CW hit 90210. According to gossip, the producers would love to get Spelling on set to reprise her role as good girl Donna Martin, perhaps even while former cast mate Jason Priestley is directing. With Jennie Garth and Shannon Doherty on and off the set, 90210 could soon be the site of an old home week for the actors.
Spelling and CW reps have remained mum on the subject, but allegedly the minds behind 90210 want to feature Donna toward the end of the season. They are currently talking, which is always a good sign.
Tori originally agreed to join the cast for a few episodes, but bowed out after giving birth to a new baby girl. Industry gossip says that Spelling wasn’t offered the same monetary amount as Doherty and Garth, which became the real reason Tori dropped the project.

Tori Spelling Drops Out of 90210
Tori Spelling may be willing to run her own Bed & Breakfast. She might even be willing to sell her own gourmet fries. But she apparently won’t do anything for money.
Although she was signed on to star in CW’s version of 90210, a paycheck dispute has forced the Tori & Dean star to drop out completely. This revelation comes after Spelling said she would be temporarily sitting on the bench to recover from her second pregnancy.
Earlier today, Deadline Hollywood Daily claimed the actress was actually holding out because of less than equal treatment. When Tori learned that her $10,000-$20,000 per episode number fell far below what Jennie Garth and Shannen Doherty were being offered (reportedly between $35,000-$50,000 per episode), she walked away.
Now the 35-year-old’s rep has confirmed to Us Magazine that Donna Martin won’t be seen anytime soon. “At this time, there are no plans for Tori to appear in the 90210 spinoff.”
I guess the record ratings Tori & Dean have been bringing to Oxygen aren’t really needed on the CW?

It’s Official: Shannen Doherty Joins 90210
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, News,
Now that we’ve had a few weeks to get used to the idea, it’s time for us to fully accept it. Brenda Walsh is coming back.
Just this weekend, CW confirmed that Shannen Doherty is returning to the zip she was once famously booted out of. In the announcement, we learned that Doherty will come back to West Beverly after she is asked to guest direct a school play.
Those who recall her stint in ‘Cat on a Hot Tin Roof’ may be surprised to learn that Brenda’s character has since become a “successful theater actress, splitting her time between London and New York.” So successful, in fact, that she has already moved on to directing her own productions. (Hence, the invite from her alma mater.)

Luke Perry, Shannen Doherty and Casting for 90210
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, The CW, Gossip, Rumors,
Years have passed since the show rocketed to success (and was subsequently canceled), and yet Beverly Hills, 90210 is still dominating entertainment news. If you’re longing to see some familiar faces on the fall spin-off of the popular teen series, you won’t be disappointed. If you’re hoping to see Luke Perry on the new show, you will be.
“It’s that 90210 time of year,” Perry laughed with reporters as he answered questions about the spin-off (though he was actually promoting an unrelated project with the Hallmark Channel). Luke Perry has already stated that he will not - that’s right, will not - become Dylan again on camera. According to his own comments, Perry does not really wish to do the series without mastermind Aaron Spelling, famed TV producer (and sire of Tori Spelling) who passed away in 2006.

90210 News: Shannen Doherty May Return
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip,
Just last month, Lori Laughlin said it was unlikely 90210 fans would be seeing Shannen Doherty again. “I don’t think Shannen will. No. I don’t think anyone wants to touch that.”
Well, I hate to be the one to break it to ya, Lori—but it looks like someone does want to ‘touch that’ after all.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the producers behind the CW spinoff are currently in talks with Doherty about joining the ever-growing cast. What’s keeping her from signing on the dotted line? She reportedly wants to approve her storyline and paycheck first. (As if she should be turning any money down these days.)

No Luke Perry for 90210
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip,
While little is known about the storylines we’ll see on 90210 next year, there’s one thing we definitely won’t be seeing: a Kelly/Dylan marriage.
Even though Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling are both welcoming a return to the famed zip code, Luke Perry says he’s not envisioning a trip to his old stomping grounds.
In a radio interview with Billy Bush, Perry said, “It’s just not something that I’ve thought about, to be honest. I don’t see it happening.” Well - I don’t think Spelling ever saw herself opening a Bed & Breakfast either, but money’s money.
But who knows? If Jason Priestley winds up directing a few episodes as rumored, Perry could have a change of heart later. Lord knows, he had more than his share of those when it came to Brenda and Kelly…

Tori Spelling Joins the 90210 Cast
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, News,
It’s official. Finding decent work after 90210 is apparently quite hard.
Just weeks after Jennie Garth was confirmed for the CW spinoff comes word of another alum’s return. Realizing the Bed & Breakfast business was just not going to pay the bills, Tori Spelling has confirmed she will have a part in the new show. (According to the rumors, she begged to be included.)
Although Garth will have a recurring role as a West Beverly guidance counselor, Spelling (Donna Martin) will continue where she left off: in the fashion industry. Her character - who once co-owned a boutique with Kelly Taylor - will reportedly have “one of the coolest stores in Beverly Hills.”
While we still have a few months until 90210‘s fall premiere, there’ll be plenty of opportunities to see Tori Spelling this summer. The third installment of her Oxygen show - now titled Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood - will premiere on June 17.
