Here's the rundown.
BEFORE KELLY TAYLOR BECAME A GUIDANCE COUNSELOR AND BRENDA WALSH BECAME A FAMOUS THEATRE DIRECTOR, THEY WERE BFFs AT WEST BEVERLY HIGH.
SOAPNET CELEBRATES ALL THEIR CLASSMATES IN A TWENTY-FOUR HOUR MARATHON OF THE ORIGINAL "BEVERLY HILLS, 90210" STARTING AT MIDNIGHT ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1
Before the new series starts, see how it all began
In anticipation of 90210 returning to television, SOAPnet will air a 24-hour marathon of the original drama, "Beverly Hills, 90210" on Labor Day, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 starting at midnight and going through the entire day. The "BFFs of BH" marathon will feature 24 pivotal episodes of the hit TV series. It's all "Beverly Hills," all the time.
Starring Jason Priestley, Shannen Doherty, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green, Tori Spelling, Luke Perry and Tiffani-Amber Thiessen, the primetime teen soap first aired on Fox from 1990-2000. The show followed the lives of two transplanted Minnesota twins, Brandon and Brenda, as they made their way through Los Angeles amongst the privileged rich kids. Even though the show was known for its fabulous cars and clothes, the series covered many important issues, such as teen pregnancy, suicide, alcoholism, drug addiction, rape, integrated families and domestic violence.
