Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Video,
Come this fall, old Melrose Place fans will probably experience a sense of déjà vu. Why? Because CW’s reboot will air on Tuesdays right after the network’s revival of 90210. Could it be any more 1992?

90210 Goes to the Prom

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Video,
The first season of 90210, the CW’s surprising success story, is coming to a close. In the final two episodes of the season, the entire cast will carouse at the West Beverly Hills High School Prom. This is not an unfamiliar first-season concept in the world of Beverly Hills serialized TV. In fact, the original Beverly Hills, 90210 ended with a similar event.
In the original inception of the series, the Bev Hills kids gathered near the end of the season for the Spring Dance, a very formal affair where they experimented with alcohol, dating new people and sex. Is it possible that the prom event that will wrap up the new 90210’s first season could be every bit as juicy? Follow the jump to view a video that’s filled with not-yet-aired scenes that most of the world won’t see until they tune into to 90210 tonight:

Matt Lanter Dishes on 90210

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip,
New Beverly Hills bad boy Matt Lanter was recently interviewed by Popeater. He talked about Dustin Milligan’s 90210 departure, his own rising popularity and the future of the show.
“We all really love Dustin,” Lanter said of Milligan, who has reportedly been released from his 90210 contract and will not be returning for the second season. Milligan played Ethan Ward on the show. “He will be missed, but I think everyone knows it’s business,” Lanter, who plays Liam (last name unknown) added.

90210: Dustin Milligan Quietly Goes Away

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip,

The 90210 cast gathered Saturday night for an event at Paley Fest - minus one Dustin Milligan.
Milligan’s good-looking jock character Ethan has been dismissed from the series in favor of bad boy Liam, played by Matt Lanter. Dustin Milligan is now gone from the set, having finished his last scenes with the show, but he’s not forgotten by his remaining former cast mates.
“I’m going to miss him terribly,” Shenae Grimes told reporters. “He is an amazing guy and an amazing actor.”

Laura Leighton Returns to Melrose Place

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip,
Sorry, Lisa Rinna. It doesn’t look like your services will be needed anytime soon.
They might not have been able to secure Heather Locklear for their Melrose Place reboot, but the CW has just resurrected someone from the dead. Ashlee-Simpson Wentz will now be checking in with another redhead - veteran Laura Leighton - when it comes time to pay the rent.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the actress who played the deliciously bad Sydney Andrews from 1993-97 will be brought on as the update’s landlord. This despite Sydney’s supposed death by car at the end of Season 5. (You can see that clip after the jump.) There’s been no word as to how she will suddenly reappear after being MIA from the program’s last two seasons. (Ooh - will she be secretly hiding a scar under her wig like Kimberly?)
Andrews, like Kelly Taylor on 90210, is being listed as a recurring character.

No Melrose Place for Heather Locklear

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip,
If CW was hoping to give a big name boost to its Melrose Place remake, the network will have to try a bit harder.
Although many were counting on an appearance from Heather Locklear, the newbies will just have to do without Amanda Woodward. According to Entertainment Weekly, the FOX veteran decided against joining the series. An insider claims there simply “wasn’t a way to bring her back that made sense.” (I didn’t realize that was a requirement for CW’s reboots.)
As disappointing as this news might be, the network should not give up hope. Heather might not be interested in carrying the show once again, but there’s at least one other vet who’s willing to try: Lisa Rinna. The former Days of Our Lives star told E! Online back in January that she’s “available” to resurrect her old character (Taylor McBride) at any time. Yippee!
Those confirmed for the cast so far include Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, Jessica Lucas (90210), Michael Rady (Swingtown), and Katie Cassidy (Supernatural).

Ashlee Simpson Moving to Melrose Place

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, The CW, Gossip, Rumors,

Sources say that Ashlee Simpson-Wentz will soon be joining the cast of Melrose Place on the CW. She’s the first big name to become a confirmed cast member and a decent coup for the network, which already made waves by bringing us the refreshed 90210.
Ashlee Simpson-Wentz will play Violet, a character from a small town who seems very sweet and naïve…but she’s really clever, cunning and catty. Sounds perfect. The singer previously worked as a regular cast member on the squeaky-clean 7th Heaven.

No Doubt Hits Up Gossip Girl

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Music, Prime Time, FOX,
After five years away, No Doubt will return to the spotlight later this summer.
To kick off their upcoming tour, the reunited group will visit one of the hippest shows around. On May 11, Gwen Stefani, Tom Dumont, Tony Kanal and Adrian Young will rock New York’s Upper East Side on Gossip Girl.
Although the band members have been working on fresh material, no release date has been set for any new album. No Doubt will be performing a cover of “Stand and Deliver,” and Adam and the Ants song, for their CW performance.

CW Announces Changes for Reaper, 90210, Privileged

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Sci-Fi/Horror, The CW,
Did American Idol‘s return have you choosing between Hollywood and Beverly Hills? If so, CW might have just thrown you a bone.
Come March 3rd, Tuesdays will look slightly different. On that night, Reaper - originally scheduled to debut on St. Patrick’s Day - will have its midseason premiere. Its early return will mean Privileged‘s season finale will come sooner that later. (The freshman series will end its first run on February 24.)
But Reaper won’t just be sliding into Privileged‘s old 9:00 time slot. That position will now belong to 90210. It’s hoped the teen drama’s new home will allow it to be free of Idol‘s shadow.
If you’re having trouble keeping up with all the programming changes, make sure to check out TV Envy’s Midseason Schedule here.

Spinoff News: Gossip Girl, The L Word, NCIS

Gossip Girl
: Apparently when executive producer Josh Schwartz said back in June that there were “no plans for spinoff at this moment,” what he really meant was: “We aren’t planning anything for Jenny Humphrey.”
After months of speculation, CW finally announced that they will be creating a backdoor pilot for what could possibly be a Gossip Girl spinoff. (This would be similar to what Shonda Rhimes did with Private Practice.) If the test run is successful, the new series would not involve any actors from the sophomore show, nor would it even be located in New York.
