Beverly Hills 90210

Contributed by Johnny Graves

Beverly Hills 90210 was a great TV show that all teenagers loved. Do you remember what it was like in high school? Were you growing up during that time? I can remember being in high school and watching that show. Dylan was the resident heartthrob that everyone wanted to date. Brandon was the boy next door while Steve was a friend everyone wanted to have. Donna, Kelly and Brenda balanced these guys out nicely and each had a distinctive personality so any teenage girl could relate to at least one of them.

The love triangle between Kelly, Brandon and Dylan kept many of us hooked on the show while others watched to see what Donna would do next. It seems like the cast touched on every subject important to teens over the years. This included substance abuse, bulimia, domestic violence and abortion. Every teen found something to love in this great show and it is easy to see why. Teens of today still love it and many adults celebrate the day it premiered by watching old episodes. Beverly Hills 90210 is going to remain an important part of American culture for many years to come and I am thrilled that I can watch it on direct tv texas.
