[@erickagrant7646]

I started high school in 1990. This show was everything to me!!!

[@kiranolan7104]

Ericka Grant I was 11 when the show started and 21 when it ended. It was my whole adolescence!

[@KJ3113]

ME TOO!!!!!!!!

[@CelesteKTheNewWaveRevue]

I was 14 when it started. I was shocked at it's popularity!

[@KJ3113]

Celeste K i taped every single episode, so i would never miss one

[@LucienSabre]

Luke Perry. You’ll be sorely missed...but forever remembered as a Hollywood icon. 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

R.I.P. Luke Perry 🌹

[@xcleezee9597]

Luke Perry was our generations James Dean. RIP Luke!

[@hanyasementara7313]

Apparently they're so many big star were involved in these series..Truly Legend,BH90210 still in my heart.

[@kevinnelson66]

Future Academy Award winner Hillary Swank was a regular cast member for a season. Dean Cain appeared in a few episodes a year before he was cast as Superman/Clark Kent on 'Lois & Clark the New Adventures Of Superman'. Milton Berle guest starred as a retired vaudevillian performer who Steve Sanders befriended. Burt Reynolds showed up in an episode as well.

[@musicaltheatergeek79]

I was just going to say that *Hilary Swank* was hired for the 8th season (1997-1998) but was unceremoniously fired after 16 episodes, in the middle of the season. Then just a year later, she landed her first Oscar-winning role. Talk about showing them!

[@butterfly26505]

What about all the other musical guests? Jamie Walters, Color Me Bad, Jade, Luther Vandross, Flaming Lips, David Koz, and so many more! Wish there would have been a reboot before Luke Perry’s death. He added so much to that show!

[@mikekillagreen9432]

​@@musicaltheatergeek79Exactly. They never should have paired Steve with a single mother. That gets any actress fired. Storyline doesn't work.

[@lesliem7919]

They were so young when they started, but notice how mature they were. They talked very well and I love the fact that they are humble also.

[@jennifers2534]

Ian Ziering looks exactly the same

[@teal_panda_8434]

I think he looks so much better now. I never thought he was cute on the show but now 🔥 lol

[@RisingUnderdog]

He definitely aged the best out of everyone!

[@handsomeX]

He does. And he was one of the older cast members too. Along with Gabrielle Carteris.

[@abdulmumin6251]

That's because he look 50 at 20

[@Thebellreve]

Exactly my thoughts when I saw him on swamp thing

[@beautifulibra]

The fact that Hilary Swank got canned was a blessing in disguise. I loved her performances in girls don’t cry snd million dollar baby. Well deserved Oscars

[@kevinburke6055]

Mathew Perry I knew as the guy from 90210 when he first was on Friends and Hillary Swank when she blew up I knew her from the show.

[@khunthiennang]

I started watching this during my Junior High. I was 12 at that time.. It was aired once a week every Sunday afternoon in my Country, Indonesia. I was really looking forward to watching this from Monday to Saturday haha... My Mom was also a supporter of me ..

[@JB-jp9gp]

Shannen was Iconic too! She brought life in this Show.❤ with hes shinning armor Luke ❤

[@Megan1999lo]

its crazy to watch Brian Austin Green's voice changed and how much taller he got throughout the show!

[@kymberlipomerants5520]

Well yes, he got older, that tends to happen

[@tangiechapman6219]

15 or 16 when he started

[@ladennayoung2939]

Lol Vivica A Fox and Ryan Seacrest. Lol! Wow that's pretty cool that quite a few people got their start from that shoe. I didn't realize that. Since they wasn't big yet.

[@VanessaRuinzi]

I still remember the first night this came out. My older sister was 16 and just HAD to watch it!!

[@kymberlipomerants5520]

So, b/c she turned 16, it was mandatory that she had to watch the 1st episode? Some people should not reproduce.

[@catara.]

Wow! You took it too serious. So much hate towards someone who you not even know. It's normal for a teenager to be excited about something that adults don't care that much anymore.

[@angelorubio418]

Djimon Hounsou was also on the first or 2nd episode if my memory serves me right

[@RetroR0bbie]

Adam Levine was on an episode as well.

[@mikekillagreen9432]

Wow.

Great and really impactful show

[@cultboy]

You forgot Dean Cain

[@misstriciak]

The show was a worlwide phenomenom. If you hear about people from Africa born in the 90s who go by the names of Dylan, Brenda or Andrea, best believe it all started with their 20-something parents being die-hard fans of Beverly Hills 90210.

[@shawnuel]

When Tori mentioned she didn't want the cast to be 50 when they did a reboot, my first thought was "Which is in only ten years for Luke and Gabrielle!"

[@nehsangbong7259]

RIP 🙏 Luke Perry 💔

My parents let me watch 90210 but not Melrose Place afterwards 🤣

[@davideaccorsi5637]

[@brandonkrupka3943]

I think it's great seeing the 90210 cast together again, but it's sad not having Luke "Dillon " Perry not there. I also wish it was a actual reboot with them playing the old characters, not playing themselves preparing for a reboot. Just my opinion.

[@KJ3113]

Brandon Krupka i agree 100%. I said the same thing all the time. Why couldn’t they just play their old characters. Why??

[@carrietremble]

@@KJ3113 Because none of the cast members had any interest whatsoever in doing that. The creativity of what the show was is what drew the cast members to it. We would have seen the cast in their character roles more had Fox picked up a second season. That is when the "meta" show would have really become a show within a show, with the cast being shown filming scenes of their picked up reboot in character. I think Fox really missed the boat on picking up the show for a second season to see what the show really could have become.

[@KJ3113]

@@carrietremble NICE!!! Very well said, and ur 100% right. Fox should have made a season 2

[@kymberlipomerants5520]

You're missing Gabriel Macht from Suits who was in an episode.

I Love you Luke Perry on as my Big fans all times okay

[@genobvious2606]

I hope they keep the reboot going. I think that stalker kid may actually be Luke's son (on screen), and wants kinda revenge on the rest of the characters because of his death

[@KJ3113]

Mark Sexton I thought that kid was Brian’s son?

[@genobvious2606]

@@KJ3113 that's what he said, but could be lieing to cover his real plan
