'90210' shocker: Leading man Milligan to exit

90210‘s new boss lady, Rebecca Rand Kirshner Sinclair, recently told me that the soap’s second season would be "significantly" different than the first, and, man, Read the full post.

    Mixed emotions. I liked Milligan, and he was nice to look at, but 90210 has some major issues. One of my friends and I have stuck with it ust for the old 90′s sake, but find most of the stories blase and the cast uninteresting. Truth when it comes to most fo the males on the show they have very little to do but stand next to the girls. We’ve been waiting for these cahracters to actually have story lines but they seem more like props. It is all about the girls save for Annie’s brother, but even his story is minor. Also, the show feels all over the place, and ADD ridden. Nothing is ever really take care of, characters dropped, emotions flippinf back and forth like hotcakes, it seems unable to get a focus. When it comes to the vets like Kelly, when she was off the show for 3 weeks or so, she was missed. Shannon not so much, but I like Kelly being there, it is like the Frasier of cheers (although this isn’t a spin off but remake) Still she provides that familiar feeling and longing.

    Good, now if he could take Shenae Grimes with him, would be awesome. The show needed some changes, if it would last and his relationship with Annie wasn’t cutting it.

    Wasn’t he the first one cast? Sort of ironic. Personally, if they get rid of anyone I think it needs to be Annie. She is the singularly most annoying character ever on television. I’m excited to see the new direction the show is taking, but I don’t like that we might be seeing less of the actors from the original. I don’t think their being on the show seems like a “stunt” and so far I think they’ve all been used pretty well.

    I think it’s more about budget costs. those 90210 alums costs a pretty penny! But it’s interesting that they would phase out the leading man… Navid has appeared in 1 out of 3 episodes or so. And I agree, a character cannot just run its course after one season!
    You know what they should do? Spin-off a show starring Tabitha. They could bring in Rob Estes without a shirt occasionally, and special guest stars would include Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, Michael Cera, Portia de Rossi, etc.

    To Sonny…Gilmore girls was on for 7 seasons. More than most shows will ever have…..so um deal!

  • mads

    I really like Ethan and Annie but since its only the first season I could get used to it. With that said, they should bring Ty back as Annie’s love interest. He was one hot peice of meat.

  • jennifer

    very strange that they’re already kicking him off…i mean nate is still on gossip girl and he’s the most extraneous character on TV!

  • Mia

    GET RID OF ANNIE! That’s a step in the right direction.

  • Ethan Lover

    I cannot get behind Ethan leaving. Yeah, he doesn’t have a lot to do, but the writers could come up with something for him. He’s hot as hell! Bring him back! I’m not saying I’ll stop watching if he leaves, but I’m going to be seriously upset.

  • Jason

    Get rid of Brenda, Kelly, Donna and the old characters and I stop watching. As simple as that.

  • Just Me

    Annie is the most incredibly boring character played by a lousy actress with a great singing voice… hope she follows Ethan… a la Brenda Walsh? Presto Chango… GONE!

  • blueviolet

    These decisions make me far less likely to watch the show for a second season. I’m barely hanging on now. I basically only watch it when I’ve watched everything else on my DVR. And for the record, I am SOOO with you Soundinfinite about the fact that the men seem like props. But then again, the only female characters I find remotely interesting at this point are Adrianna and Kelly.

  • DEE

    Get rid of the originals and get rid of half of the following. Creative suicide at its best.

  • KK

    I think they need to “dirty” this show up a little – more like Gossip Girl. 90210 can be a bit too cheesy! I like Ethan – and totally agree that Annie is so annoying – but so cute :)
