The way I understand it, Shannen was a cunt in real life & nobody wanted to work with her...so they made Kelly the female lead, had her date Dylan and cut back on Brenda storylines.

When Kelly first started fooling around with her best friend's boyfriend, you can tell the writers went out of their way to have her retain her likability (assuming she had any to start with) as she broke up one of the most beloved couples in television history.
Kelly played the martyr, giving sad looks as she watched Dylan & Brenda together. Refusing to sleep with Dylan until they came clean to Brenda. And both girls agreeing to let Dylan decide.

What I don't understand is are we supposed to like Kelly in season four? I think so, because everybody involved with the show was obviously fucking in love with the character. They put her through a lot of bad shit, but she always emerged from it more holier than thou than ever.

But she's such a bitch. She starts off the season soaking her panties over some frat boy who spread rumors about her in high school...essentially cheats on the guy she stole from her best friend...he forgives her.

She freaks out anytime he comes to Brenda's rescue. Dylan goes down to Palm Springs to give Brenda a ride home...Kelly freaks out. But when Dylan saved her douche-bag stepbrother from getting arrested for possession an episode earlier, Kelly is fine with that.

She's jealous of her boyfriend's kid sister for fucksakes. Dylan was crazy about that kid, but everytime she was around, you could tell Kelly wanted to choke the bitch out.

Then she essentially cheats on the guy again with Brandon Walsh, the biggest asshole in Beverly Hills.
God, I wish they kept Brenda around and instead had Brandon and Kelly leave the show together. And possibly die en route to somewhere else.

It also bugged me how Andrea became Kelly's lapdog.

The Brenda/Donna scene after Donna finds David is cheating on her was so much more touching and their friendship seemed less gross.

Brandon, Kelly and Andrea are the sit around and be judgemental types.

Brenda, Dylan and Donna were the heart of the show.

Steve was okay.

David was an uptight little bitch of Kevin Arnold proportions. He treated Donna the same way Kev treated Paul on the Wonder Years. Only Paul was quicker to give up his cherry.

I quit watching after Brenda left. There was just no point after that.
I LOVED Dylan. LOVED.

Me/ My Sister
Cyndi Lauper/ Madonna
Alexis/ Krystal
He Man/ The Smurfs
Debbie Gibson/ Tiffany
Joey Mc(secretly)/ Jordan Knight
Jessie Spano/ Kelly Kopowski
Brenda/ Kelly

We agreed on pretty much everything else.

tis true, after all, kelly forced brenda to shoplift.
but after a while all of brendas bitch faces add up hence the i hate brenda pinatas

i hate steve with the fire of 1000 suns!

agreed !

I never understood why Brenda was hated and Kelly was loved.
Brenda was a down to earth insecure girl when we met her, while Kelly already was a stuck up bitch vain enough to have had a nose job at what where they supposed to be, 16, 17?
I always liked Brenda better, I even think Shannen did a better job acting compared to Jenny Garth.
When Brenda left, things got horribly boring, and I lost interest but kept watching.
I still somewhat wanted to know what happened to them, but it wasn't till Valerie entered it got totally dull.

Man, I so want to get the 90210 DVDs.

Brenda's little chicklet teeth really annoyed me.

Me too!


Yeah, I was a Brenda fan as well and hated Kelly with a passion.

The scene with Donna and Brenda after David cheats probably seemed more believable and heartfelt because Tori Spelling and Shannen Doherty were friends in real life....

Did you guys ever watch the E! true hollywood story? They all sounded like a bunch of egomaniacs behind the scenes...

hmmm is it out on dvd yet???...I've never seen it in any stores...I was looking through my old video tapes recently and found the Graduation episode..but i taped over it half way through..lol but it got me thinking that i would definately like 2 watch some episodes..particuarly the early years...

Season 1 just came out.
They also have a special box with seasons 1 of both BH and Melrose Place.

i liked donna until they cut off all her big hair and gave her more storylines. it was possibly around the same time she started dating ray pruitt, but i don't remember. i only watched the first 2 or 3 seasons religiously then moved onto melrose. but i've seen plenty of reruns.

i hated brenda until she was gone. but she was a hot mess in retrospect.
i still say they should have kept diet pill girl around (the original one, at the sleepover). and emily valentine (not san francisco version, the pyro pat benatar original version "its FOR you and its FOR me")

brenda rule that stupid show. I don`t even even think she was that much of a bitch as the slut kelly was. lost interest after she left.

i dont remember which one i liked better. i think i liked kelly better. i just wanted donna to lose her fucking virginity already. i thought david (that was his name right?) was hot i think. lol
