Are you a fan of the original series, Beverly Hills 90210? I was and still am.  You probably know that the CW is bring the cult show back as 90210: The New Generation. And several 90210 alumnae already have signed up either as guest or recurring stars, including Kelly Taylor (played by Jennie Garth, as a guidance counselor at Beverly Hills High) and Brenda Walsh (played by Shannen Doherty, whose character is not yet known).

But probably the most familiar and welcome return is the comeback of Peach Pit owner, Nat Bussichio (played by Joe E. Tata), whom the kids often ran to for advice or comfort. He will be reprising his role once again as the owner of the Peach Pit, the kids’ regular hang-out at 90210. There’s no word yet if his character will be a regular or recurring one. That all depends, he says, “If they still remember me”.

Are you excited about the return of our favorite zip code? Some people are not looking forward to it because they either: a) did not like the original 90210 or b) they think it’ll be a cheap spin-off of the original series. I’m curious though and probably will watch the first episode. I have to remember, though, to keep an open mind while watching the show, or I’ll end comparing the two and holding a torch for one of them.
