TV Addict – no you’re not too old to be watching 90210. I was a fan of the original and was really looking forward to the new 90210.

I thought that this week’s ep was an improvement. I actually enjoyed it. The highlight for me was Dixon and Silver flirting and definitely Grandma Wilson. They need to give her more to do. Couldn’t Annie and Dixon go to her sometimes with their problems?

As for your solution. It wouldn’t work; this is an updating of the original, so they need to keep the Wilsons. All the writers need to do is to make the characters interesting. Add some conflict and tension. Improve the storylines and the scripts.

Right now the only younger characters i like are Dixon, Silver and Navid. I must admit though that after this weeks ep Ethan and Naomi are growing on me. Although i hate Naomi’s plotline at the moment – so boring.

I think the main problem is that both Dixon and Annie are dull because they are too perfect. Give them some conflict. Have them argue with their parents once in a while or at least do something bad.

I think Weeds hit a really dark place this season. That turned some people off. I like House but then again, I wasn’t a fan until the new crop of doctors came in.

I wish 90210 was a little more exciting too. I really wanted to love it! I never missed one episode of the original. I am hoping that maybe they will get the kinks worked out and the show gets better. I will watch it either way though..

Privileged was as good as it was last week..

They should have made Silver the main lead to begin with, she’s far more dynamic and likeable than Annie Mills. Not to mention Shanae’s acting doesn’t deserve a lead role in any show ever.

As far as Weeds goes, it was such a great finale! I don’t understand all the season 4 hate, it was just so good!

I have to agree with you on 90210. The Characters anyone really likes/cares about are the Taylors. Annie and Dixon are the worst thing about the show.

Privledged was good, i just wish more people were watching it, because I dont wanna get hooked and then have it be canceled.

Haven’t had a chance to watch Fringe or House yet. Is House even really worth watching anymore?

I’ve said it all along, the Mills kids are too boring for primetime TV. There’d better be some major soapy plotlines just ahead. I’m more intrigued about Daddy Mills’ illigitimate kid. Tabitha is great…need more of her. Ty is absolute eye-candy….need much more. And yes, get Kelly and Silver’s mother, Jackie, back into the mix. That scene last week was the highpoint of the series thus far.

I’d also recommend getting Tori Spelling and Luke Perry onboard asap, esp. if Brenda’s visit is nearing its end. We’re thriving on the original actors now, since the Wilson clan is just so frikkin dull.

I think expectations are too high for Fringe at the moment. We’re only on the second episode, we should at least give it a few weeks to sort out any problems. A lot works on the show, but the second episode was a little mismatched.

Did anybody else see the ratings for this weeks episode? Up 48% from last week! Has that every happened before? Good thing they spent the first few minutes recapping everything.

I was definitely underwhelmed by last night’s 90210. I just don’t care at all about Naomi, plus I’m having a really hard time believing that she actually cares about Ethan. So, when she’s on the screen I basically zone out.

Annie and Dixon are sooooo bland… since when is getting a job and failing (oh wait, he didn’t actually fail, he just got an “incomplete”) a test the epitome of teen rebellion?

I really only care about the Taylor/Silvers, Brenda, and the dad of Kelly’s son. And Tabitha, but I have a bad feeling that last night’s ep is probably as deep as her plotlines go.

I like the big words. It’s something different. I kinda miss them when they show a long shot and they’re not there.
