American TV network, CW has picked up teen drama, Beverly Hills 90210 for an entire season after promising rating for its first few episodes.
The show premiered on September 2 with 4.9 million viewers,and though the figures have dropped slightly, the show is rating highly enough to continue for a full series.
Network president Dawn Ostroff said: “The successful addition of 90210 has taken The CW another step forward in building a cohesive schedule that defines this network as a destination for young women with shows that get our audience talking – and watching.”
Sorry ladies! It looks like heart throb Luke Perry has turned down the chance to return to Beverly Hills 90210 where he became famous in the nineties as Dylan McKay.
Rumours have been circulating that Luke had agreed to return to the show as the father of Jennie Garth’s characters son, but it seems that there’s no truth in it whatsoever. Perry’s spokesperson Arnold Robinson states that “This story is not true. Luke is not appearing on the show”. Apparently Perry himself stated that he simply can’t see it happening as he can’t imagine why there’s a need for the show again.
Wouldn’t it be nice though if Perry did return and all the old crew were back together again? Ahhhhhh the good old days………
The all NEW Beverly Hills 90210 is coming out in America this autumn and will no doubt be picked up in the UK early next year.
But for all you fans (new or old!) who can’t wait this long, we have found this great clip from the new show, introducing all the characters and telling us what we can expect……
