Jennie Garth, an original cast member of Beverly Hills, 90210 from 1990-2000, will reprise her role in the CW spinoff that’s in the works for this fall. Garth, last seen kicking up her heels on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars, will reprise her role as Kelly Taylor in the new series. She’ll play a guidance counselor at her alma mater, West Beverly Hills High, where all the new characters are enrolled. The casting of Garth follows other high-profile additions to the show’s grown-up cast, including Lori Laughlin (Summerland) and Jessica Walter (Arrested Development).

Good news. I was going to avoid this series until now; with Jennie’s inclusion, I’ll probably watch it.
Wasn’t sure if I would watch. Now I will at least give it a try.
I am SO happy the MOLE is back. I have waited 4 years for this reality TV show to return back to ABC in June 2008. Spread the word, the MOLE is back.
There’s an updated version of Degrassi on tv where one of the original characters,Spike plays the mom of one of the teens. I think the new 90210 will probably be like this. I might have to check it out.
FINALLY they can call this show a “spinoff”. Up until now, it was not in any way a spinoff and it was annoying me to hear people call it that. Just because they live in Beverly Hills didn’t make it a spinoff. NOW it’s a spinoff, but wow, you think 10 years would be enough time playing Kelly Taylor. I’m PRAYING for a Tori Spelling guest spot….Donna Martin graduates!
