It’s true. The CW has issued orders for a pilot script for a spinoff of everyone’s favorite Californian teen drama (eff that OC crap).  Better news: Rob Thomas (Veronica Mars creator) is writing it! Good news all around for Mars and 90210 fans alike.

Old characters may or may not appear, though I’m sure that has to do with the actors’ interest in a possible project.  If anything, I’d love to see Brenda return.  Where did she go when she “traveled Europe”? Maybe she has kids of her own now? Who attend high school now? At the same school that she did?

Ok, the lame-factor is potentially pretty high, but it’s worth a shot anyways.  Although I know it’s kind of a chick thing, 90210 really wasn’t that bad of a show!  It taught us the importance of education on tough subjects such as alcoholism (oh, Dylan, you troubled youth, you),  gun control (Scott!),  and rape (“I’m fine, DAVE,”-Donna  “You never call me DAVE! I knew you were being raped and came to SAVE you!”-David ).  And oh yeah. Everything that happened to Kelly from the cult join-age to getting caught in a fire, mugged, amnesia.  Wow.

I might’ve been too young to see it for its cheese factor, but who cares!  A spinoff could be mildly fun, or at least extremely fun to publicly humiliate and criticize on a blog that about 5 people read once a month.

Fast track this one, CW.  Hopefully it’ll have that 90210 flavor we miss, and not that scandalous debauchery of that the wretched The OC.
