Advantages: Entertaining

Disadvantages: Only one episode a week

90210 is a show that is aired on e4 on Monday nights at 9pm, from what I hear, it's a re-make of a previous series but with a new generation. It's set in Beverly Hills (obviously) and is basically about a group of teenagers at West Beverly Hills High School.

It starts when a family move from Kansas USA to Beverly Hills because their father has to look after his ill mother and also gets a new job as principle at the school they are to attend. This family includes Annie, and Dixon, who are both major characters in the show. It should be noted here however that Dixon is actually their adopted son, and this causes problems later in the series (which all make sense if you watch it).

The show itself has some pretty strong characters, my favourite being Naomi, she just seems to be the typical LA girl and is immaculate, her story lines are pretty interesting and she plays her role well. Other main cast members include Silver, Adrianna (who struggles with a drug problem), and Ethan (who dates both Annie and Naomi, separately). There are a lot of other characters also but there is no point me going into them without giving away the entire plot.

I enjoy watching this show as it is very entertaining, I have been hooked right from the start, it is currently on episode 18/20 but should you wish to watch them from the start, I believe they are available on 4OD. Though it should be released on DVD pretty soon after the last episode. I cant say how good it is compared to the original, because I haven't watched it but it should be mentioned that all the actors in this series do look a lot older than 15/16, I think it must be an American thing. They are all also very immaculate and dress in the latest designer gear and have great cars etc. A very typical American style show.

Summary: great show
