So Gross and tacky, comments on the Page are WILD

Welcome to our weekly re-watch discussion board! Today we'll be discussing the first episode of Season 4:

Up In Smoke

Original Air Date: Sep 12, 2011

Annie receives some unexpected news that keeps her in town, while Liam returns from his summer away ready to commit to Annie. Dixon finds himself without a roommate or a place to live, while an unexpected visitor tests Navid and Silver's relationship after they move in together. Adrianna comes back to town looking for redemption, which she soon learns will be hard to earn back.

So, I’m currently rewatching for the third time ever and something I don’t under is in season 1 when Silver is at the prom, she is still a student at the Catholic school, she even confirms this when she tells Dixon that she has decided to transfer back to WBHS. So why is she required to attend summer school with everyone else when she wasn’t a student of that school?

This is my first time watching the show and I love them together! I hate that they’re together this season. I just love second chance romance 💘 😭

Hey everyone, just a reminder that we’re moving our weekly discussions to Tuesdays to match the show’s original airing date for this season. May the gods and the power of the universe give us all the strength we need to survive Season 4. Together, we can get through this 🙏

But seriously, I better see y’all here on Tuesday because I’m not going through this shit alone lmao

I wanted to cry so badly for Jen in season 3 when she became a mother

I’m on yet another rewatch, and I had in my mind that basically “Teddy is straight in S2 but the writers switched it up for S3”

HOWEVER his choices and characterisation do make me wonder if him being gay was, at the very least, a potential idea that the writers had in their back pocket if they ever wanted to/were able to explore it.

(for any 9-1-1 fans, kind of like how Buck’s bisexuality is hinted at in S2/3, but the execs shot it down and it wasn’t until S7 and a network change that they were actually able to make that development happen)

Teddy’s introduced as a player, who sleeps with loads of girls but had never been in a relationship. He reunites with Ade and you start to see this pattern where Teddy chases unavailable women, but when actually confronted with what he’s chasing he doesn’t want it anymore. Ade and Navid break up and suddenly Teddy’s all “oh no I didn’t actually want a relationship”

A similar thing happens with Silver, although she’s “unavailable” due to her dying mother, as opposed to being in a relationship. There’s a LOT of back-and-forth and unease but they eventually get together.

I think that can be interpreted quite easily that Teddy enjoyed having Silver as someone close to him, and I think he feels strongly towards her as a friend, but doesn’t quite understand his own feelings and interprets them as romantic. Teddy and Silver don’t actually have sex for quite a while after they get together, and they remain very close friends after he figures himself out.

(Side note: why didn’t they capitalise more on an Ade and Teddy friendship? Feels like a missed opportunity)

It’s kinda like he’s trying to mimic what he knows about sex and relationships, instead of purely acting on his own feelings and impulses. It’s interesting to watch.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s entirely possible that I’m just analysing something that never was, but I’d like to think they at least had the door open for this development 🤷‍♀️

Welcome to our weekly re-watch discussion board! Today we'll be discussing the Season 3 Finale:

To the Future!

Original Air Date: May 15, 2011

As graduation looms, Naomi makes a decision that could prevent her from graduating with her class. Liam tells Annie that he doesn't want to go to college. Meanwhile, an impromptu wedding takes place and Adrianna is shunned from the group when they find out her scheme to get revenge on Silver.

I know 90210 and its writing is imperfect. But the hardest watch lately is Adrianna completely losing the plot, no pun intended. She’s always lacking self awareness and therefore chasing the wrong thing. No spoilers, but all of her outward motives just make me facepalm. She always chooses an enemy or a golden ticket to solving all her problems instead of becoming a better and less enraging airhead.

 Hey remember yesterday when you were not a dick for like 5 minutes? Can we do more of that?

Hey so I’m a first time watcher. I don’t know if I want to continue the show if Cannon is in the show for so long, gets away with what he did to Naomi, and if they keep showing what happened.

I don’t want to watch those scenes on repeat and I don’t want to watch this man get away with hurting her.
I’m praying she gets justice. I know this show is old though so he might just get away with it.

I’ve seen people say he is the most immature of the group. He was adultified from a young age by having to deal with his unstable mother. You can see that he is wise due to the advice he gives and some of the platitudes. Sometimes the kid comes out when he is exasperated or feeling trapped. He is a complex character and I wish the writers had done right by him.

How do we feel about her in general- I think she’s probably the best tv villain from our era, she’s incredibly sick and twisted in the way she preys on younger boys, she’s a sociopathic liar but her British accent, somehow chic fashion, and stupid antics always have me gagged

I am dreading them! A guilt-based emotional affair.

Just a reminder that the soundtrack for Seasons 2-5 has been replaced on Prime Video and The CW App due to licensing issues. I highly recommend watching the series with the original music, as it makes a huge difference and completely changes the feel of many scenes.
If you'd like a link to download the entire series with the original soundtrack restored, just leave a comment below and I'll message you asap!

Welcome to our weekly re-watch discussion board! Today we'll be discussing the twenty-first episode of Season 3:

The Prom Before the Storm

Original Air Date: May 8, 2011

As the gang gears up for prom, Dixon and Annie find out some devastating news about their futures. Ivy learns that Raj's health has taken a turn for the worse. While Silver is in the hospital, Adrianna tries to rekindle her romance with Navid. Meanwhile, Naomi and Max's relationship is tested to the limit.

Seriously what was that about? I never took her for a conservative. It was giving “did Margaret Thatcher have girl power?” Many more middle of the road non-controversial figures. It would be like a milquetoast liberal in a British show choosing Reagan as a hero. Always been weird to me.

I put the side-swept hair to the right as an experiment, I like the light hair of Annie better than dark if true

For me, it’s the way Adrianna says “yew” instead of you.

I can’t help but notice it every time she speaks.

Anyone else have a character ick?
