"90210" has been pulled from TV3's Wednesday line-up and moved to it's sister channel, C4 (formerly Music Television!)
The show was apparently "under-preforming" in it's time slot and was pulled after only 4 episodes (similar to Australia which also pulled it after only 4 episodes!)
The new 90210 follows the The Mills family moving to Beverly Hills and setting up home with their " feisty-but-faded former television star" Grandma.
It ain't no "OC" but it's still not that bad. Once you get past the cheese-factor it's easily watchable and something cool to just tune into without having to worry about your brain being over worked (no worried there)!
Of course the cast is extremely good looking, not only the "teens" but also the mums (especially Lori Loughlin)!
Storyline wise there hasn't been too many big dramas so far (in fact most of the drama has been occurring off set!), but with talks that there may be a teenage pregnancy coming up (...remember "One Tree Hill") and reports that the storylines are about to get more challenging, there may be hope for this show yet!
Can they keep relying on the old cast keeping the ratings up for long? We'll have to wait to see how it performs on C4 (finally a good show on that channel!) but looking to the US, viewership on Episode 1 was 5.14million, but it has slipped steadily to 2.73million by Episode 10. Time to think outside the square!
Tune in Wednesdays 7:30PM on C4, and Tuesdays 8PM on the CW!
