More Info About The CW 90210 Spin-Off Emerges
By Kelly West: 2008-03-19 19:17:55
With the success of The CW's Gossip Girl, it's no real surprise that the network is working on another primetime teen soap opera. New details about the Beverly Hills, 90210 spin-off (or rip-off - however you want to look at it) have emerged.
E! Online's Kristin Dos Santos got the latest scoop on the developing project. Her sources at the CW said that Rob Thomas (the mastermind behind Veronica Mars) has already delivered the outline for the show and the pilot script should be in by Monday, the latest. Dos Santos reports that Mark Piznarski, who directed the pilot episode of Veronica Mars, is set to direct the pilot episode of this new series. It's been nearly a year since Veronica Mars was cancelled and I'm still bitter over it. As much as Thomas and Piznarski's involvement in this series intrigues me, I'm still dubious of this networks' ability to properly market a series and refuse to get my hopes up about this show. Even if it does turn out to be as great as Mars was, it will fall on the network to target the right audience and give the series a chance to grow. If anything, calling it a spin-off of 90210 and maybe bringing in one or two of the old cast members from the original series might entice people who were once hooked on the Aaron Spelling series to tune in. E! Online also has some info on the characters. The parents in the show are Harry and Celia Mills. Harrys a teacher and Celia's a personal trainer. The kids are Annie, an aspiring actress and Dixon, an adopted kid who's been with the Mills family four six years. Annie becomes best friends with Daphne Silver, a video-blogging girl who has a crush on Dixon. Then there's Navid, a persion kid who runs the high school TV station. And finally there's Ethan Ward, a popular guy whose reputation gets ruined by his bitchy girlfriend, Naomi. RELATED: beverly hills 90210, cw, veronica mars, rob thomas

Good call on this networks inability to market episodic television.Veronica Mars
could have been the flagship show for CW but the suits of this network never demonstrated any programing skill and Veronica Mars sadly ran only three seasons . If they were doctors a malpractice lawsuit would be appropriate.Rob Thomas is a great talent but the network needs an overhaul.
