90210 is the world's most recognized zip code, but it’s not the show I watched as a kid. Its sexier and has more of a modern edge and makes the original look a little Sesame Street. This new version of the show is a more modern look at the lifestyles of the rich and bratty. Its off to a good start for a teen drama. It starts off with a familiar brother and sister from Kansas storyline with an interestingly fresh twist. The return of the characters Brenda Walsh and Kelly Taylor all grown up and with kids seemed a little odd at first but it works for the show. But this is Beverly Hills were the plastic surgeons have plastic surgeons… and there are plenty of young beautiful people running around the halls of WBHH. The pilot episode didn’t waste any time showing off the mansions, private jets, sex, drugs, alcohol and cyber bullying. I’m sure with this being the wonderful world of TV and all the students at WBHH will be taught a lesson or two about the dangers of those naughty behaviors.Check out my articles in the Arts & Entertainment section under TV on Examiner.com/Atlanta

I am a die hard fan of the original 90210 and was a little hesitant about this at first too, but then when I heard some of the original cast was coming back, I decided to give it a chance, and I watched the premiere with an open mind. And I was pleasantly surprised, it more than surpassed my expectations. I fell in love with this new spin off within the first few minutes, I have fallen in love with this show all over again! I am really glad this show is back, as they said "it's really great to be back in Beverly Hills."
As for the mixed critics reviews, I take those with the smallest grain of salt, it's just one person's opinion, the ratings speak for themselves ;) Some of the critics are just bitter that they didn't get to have an advanced screening of it, that they had to contain their suspense and wait to see it when everyone else does without any special treatment.
I don't really agree with the Sesame Street comment, but it's great to see more reviewers with an open mind.
It's great to actually LOVE something about TV again for the first time in a long time. The best TV show in history is back!!!!
