Stars in High school:
It is amazing to me how when you flip through these pictures how normal people look, they totally could have been my friend. Don't get me wrong a lot of the girls especially were still cute/pretty but they still look NORMAL.... Cindy Crawford looks the prettiest to me.

90210: Were my expectations to high???
Ok so don't get me wrong I thought that it was a pretty good episode...a bit too long. I think that they made some parts super cheesy trying to reflect the original... Which I somewhat appreciate being the Beverly Hills: 90210 fan that I am. Things I liked that gave us flashbacks: The school news anchor being Hannah Zuckerman-Vasquez(Andrea's daughter) and then the teacher saying "what is she thirty?" That was kind of funny. Kelly & David's younger sister being one of the main characters(I think that was a wise decision)...I love Kelly so any role she has is great (although lets not bring up the love triangle again, Brenda said "Brandon wanted me to tell you, you're beautiful"....seriously it has been 8 eight years at least, I am sure he has moved on) and the original theme song gets me super excited. I think the show has potential...it probably won't push the envelope as much as Gossip Girl but should keep us entertained.
Now lets talk about the moment of the show all of the old 90210 fans were waiting for... The encounter between Brenda & Kelly lacked luster and fell short of any expectations I had....I will be interested to see if they address any old tension the girls had on the show.... Only time will tell.
What are your thoughts on last nights episode? Is 90210 going to save the CW like they had hoped??
Happy Watching

So Many Shows, So Little Time!! :)
So I must admit I am not the most well rested person today! Three of "my shows" premiered last night, plus we still had a new episode of The Hills to enjoy... lets jump right in:
Spotted B & S with all their friends on a brand new episode of Gossip Girl last night on the CW. :) So I thought last nights episode was simply wonderful. I love Chuck & Blair (C & B) together, I think Blair brings out something wonderful in Chuck. The question is will Chuck ever be man enough to say those three words (8 letters) that we ALL know he is feeling. He did tell Nateearlier that he was in love with her so will he be able to tell Blair??? I sure hope so. I am not feeling the new guy that Blair is with "Lord James" maybe I am just partial to the crazy chemistry between Blair & Chuck. Serena & Dan get back together which is not a surprise to anyone, they will be the steady couple of this show.... I am sure some drama will unfold soon that will tear them apart again. (I hear they are bringing in a new man for Serena to possibly lust after). PS I love how Dan got caught in his game....he was so quick to judge Serena for kissing Nate but SERIOUSLY he has been making out with girls all summer. The gag story line of the night was Nate and his married mistress! Ugh I hate this story line but I guess every teen soap has one. Nate was one of my favorite characters last season so I hope he snaps out of this phase fast! Jenny is really redeeming herself from last season and I can't wait to see what story lines follow her (I just realized that Jenny was Cindy Lou Who in The Grinch).... Also have we seen the end of "G" (Georgina)??? Or will she be back to cause some more chaos and bring out more dirty laundry? Is anyone else wondering what Dan meant on the finale last season when he said "We might as well have had sex"?? Will this come back to haunt him??? Where is Vanessa??? I am pretty sure she has some story lines this season, so when will she be making her return? Oh and major props to grandma.... Interesting how she made a complete 180 from who she was last season, is she truly a changed woman?
Ok so we left OTH last season with Dan being hit by a car (his beeper going off) and Lucas calling "someone" asking them to marry him. The beginning of the season premiere got me a little confused (not sure why they showed Lucas picking each girl...I guess they were trying to throw us off for a minute). Anyways parts of this episode were very predictable but there were a couple twists that had me on the edge of my seat: Brooke getting attacked...my first thought is "PLEASE TELL ME HER MOTHER WOULDN'T DO THAT." I think it is suppose to be our assumption that her mother hired someone to attack her, crazy woman! The next big twist is Nanny Carrie is back and the psycho has been plotting against Dan since we last saw her.... seriously she is CRAZY.... Is it weird that I am starting to feel a little bad for Dan???? Who would have ever thought there would be someone crazier than Dan on the show??? So my other big question with this plot line is WILL DAN MISS HIS OPPORTUNITY AT A NEW HEART??? His pager was going off when he was hit so does this mean they gave the heart away??? (I don't think they hold on to them for days or anything). I am sure most of the OTH fans are happy that Lucas picked Peyton (finally) I am happy just to move on to another story line. However I have a sneaking suspicion that this won't be the end of the love triangle...I see Lindsey coming back in the near future. Will Brooke run into the hot doctor that she was flirting with last season at the hospital when she is admitting after being attacked??? Also the tearful scenes with Mouth saying goodbye lead me to believe he is leaving the show, could this be true? Did they run out of good story lines for the innocent good boy??? Hmmm until next week.....
WOW!!! So much drama in last nights episode, they are really trying to reel us back in.... Season three of prison break in my opinion was the worst season and I worried how they would keep the show moving forward and they get MAJOR props for thinking of great story lines and for the way they brought Sarah back...We didn't have to wait long. It almost felt like a great suspense movie I was watching last night and it just kept getting better..... I love that they brought everyone back in the mix! YAY Sucre is back and kicking.... LOVED IT. I also loved the interaction between Sarah & Michael given they haven't had much time together on the show period. I think last night was probably only the third or forth time we have seen them kiss over the past four seasons..... Michael and Lincoln are bad a** and I wouldn't mess with them! The Company is going DOWN!!!
Last nights episode was so disappointing! No drama, no fun! Audrina and Lo both missed out on the big bucks this week, since neither were in the episode. But don't worry Heidi wasn't missing out on her $65,000 so she made a brief appearance in last nights episode. I believe last night they were trying to get us ready for Whitney's spin off show...Not sure many of the details on this but we know it is suppose to take place in New York with a new group of friends....I love Whitney and all but she is going to have to spice it up a bit bc last nights clips with her were pretty boring..... I honestly didn't care much about Lauren dumping Doug....We didn't see much of them to begin with, so that story line lacked appeal.... Same old story with Stephanie and Spencer.... Are we going to keep playing that same game over and over..... I am ready for next weeks episode... Come on MTV show us some DRAMA!!!!
Tonight is the night I have been counting down the days until..... I used to simply love 90210 when I was younger and part of me is just super excited to see Kelly & Brenda walking the halls of West Beverly again.... But I am also excited to embark on a new generation of Beverly Hills kids. I also always love Lori Laughlin, so tonight's episode should be very enjoyable to me!
Are you excited about 90210? What are you most looking forward to?

90210
Lost:
Michelle Rodriguez "Ana Lucia" will return in the second episode of Lost this season. She will only be appearing in one episode so most likely it will be a flash back of some sort...TV Guide thinks a Hurley flash back. Ana Lucia's life was cut short after she was charged with a DUI in Hawaii during filming, however writers say that Ana Lucia's character was always planned to be a short lived one.
This season Michael Scofield is losing the tattoo that he has had since season 1.... In season three of the show Michael wore long sleeves the entire season so they didn't have to paint on the tattoo for every show (he was really hot the entire season wearing long sleeves in MEXICO). So sometime during this season Michael is going to go to the doctor to get rid of the tattoo (I think to help better disguise himself from the company). YAY just a few more days!!!!At the end of last season I reported that Here Come the Newlyweds was canceled...I obviously read this somewhere, but ABC has picked up the show for a second season... It will air mid-season. No official premiere date has been announced but probably sometime between Jan-March.
This picture just got me so excited and ready for the new season!!!
Ok so Luke Perry has been denying that he would appear on the spin-off since they announced it but is that really true? Or does he have a price??? Recent rumors are that Luke "Dylan" might appear in a late episode this season. Apparently Kelly has a four year old son in the spin-off and none other than Dylan is the father.... Dylan will come back later to try to fix the relationship with mother & son..... I really hope this happens I will be so happy :)Posted by Sarah Beth at 8/26/2008 1 comments

ONLY ONE WEEK!!!!
We are only 1 week, 7 short days away from the first of the fall premieres to begin...YAY I have my calendar marked for the 3 shows I will watching that day: One Tree Hill, Prison Break and newly added Gossip Girl (I am only 8 episodes into season 1 but should be finished by Monday).
American Idol: A Fourth Judge is added to Season 4!
This season they will be adding a forth judge into the mix, a female to help Paula out (if that is at all possible). I am little uneasy about this, "If it ain't broke don't fix it" I just feel like this could hurt the chemistry of the show, HOWEVER I know nothing about the lady they hired, Kara DioGuardi, so that might be unfair to say. The people at American Idol obviously know what they are doing... We will see. Read article below for more info

RW/RR Challenge: The Island...RACHEL'S BACK!!!
The first time I reported about The Island and the cast that will be on the challenge I listed Rachel Robinson and I just assumed this was Veteran Rachel that has been on a couple challenges recently. BUT It is not is it hard core bad A** Rachel of "Rachel & Veronica"...She hasn't been on a challenge in a long time so it is going to be interesting...I look for a good fight between Rachel & Tonya.For a new preview of this seasons challenge click below:

Jessica vs. Carrie:
Ok so I am just curious every ones opinion on this whole saga....I know it is not TV gossip but I need to know are you on Team Underwood or Team Simpson...I honestly don't love love love either one of them but I would go out on a limb and say that Carrie seems more genuine and honest but it is weird that she said in an interview that her ex still calls her, especially when he is dating someone else....Is that really anyone elses business to be putting in a magazine??? So I kind of understand where Jessica is coming from in her comments on the radio interview....Although it seems a little crazy to check his phone log...But we have all probably done crazy girlfriend things at some point in our lives, or at least I have!
So which of "America's Sweethearts" do you side with???

90210: Brenda is Back!!
I saw this new clip for 90210...and I loved all 10 seconds of it!!!

The Hills: Lo vs. Audrina
Ok so I know most of you are Team Audrina and that is fine but after watching the episode again I am more convinced than ever that Lo is more REAL and Audrina is fake....Ok so When Lauren and Lo are in the Kitchen Lo made several questionable comments but I am going to break them down and tell you my thoughts (bc I know you want to hear) "I'm not going to be put in that situation" "We have made an effort and cooked all day etc." and "I guess we will just have to enjoy the company that comes."
1. "I'm not going to be put in that situation" - In my opinion Lo is only on the show bc she loves Lauren and knows she needs a friend....When Laguna ended she was quoted as saying she was ready to move on and just live a normal life, she didn't enjoy cameras all the time and the drama. Ok so that being said I think she is saying this more about the producers and the show....They probably encouraged ("forced") Lo and Lauren to have this party for Audrina. Lo probably knows that Audrina is forced to be friends with them and knows she is only doing it to be famous.... She is saying I am not going to be forced to be in these situations basically just to have DRAMA....I think she wants to just lay low and be there for Lauren but it is being twisted into her being the villain.
2. "We made an effort and cooked all day etc..." - Ok so this kind of goes hand in hand with the last quote she is being forced to do all this stuff.... she really probably did clean, cook and do stuff all day for Audrina and she may not have even been grateful....we saw when Audrina was talking to her work people she said Lauren threw the party and she didn't know if Lo was helping so she may not have given Lo much credit and made her feel left out too, and ungrateful.
3. "I guess we will just have to enjoy the company that comes..." - ok so this is the most controversial statement she made and lets just be honest she is a bit b**** about it but I think she kind of meant that she invited people like Justin Bobby and he wasn't there yet so "we will just have to enjoy who comes"......
All in all I understand that Lo should probably just be nicer to her in general but I think she is very guarded and protective of Lauren and knows that Audrina is in for the fame...which is fine but it is hard when you are forcing people to be friends that may not normally get along very well... I do give props to Lo for confronting Audrina and trying to make peace (somewhat) she could have gone about it better but she did say "I big part of me wants to be your friend" to Audrinas "We'll Never Be Friends" and I agree 100% that all the blame is being put on Lo for Lauren and Audrina not getting along and that is just not fair...Lauren and Audrina's relationship is their relationship!
Fill me in on ALL your thoughts, I can wait to see how this season plays out!
Happy Watching
