The “90210″ spin-off will have at least one familiar face: CBS and CW (who are co-producing the series) confirmed Jennie Garth will step back into the role that made her famous. Jennie’s character, Kelly Taylor, will be a guidance counselor at her old high school, West Beverly High.
Rumors swirled that she was returning to the series after she dropped out of a CBS pilot called My Best Friend’s Girl last month.
CBS and CW even hint that others from the original may return, calling Garth “the first cast member to reprise her role.”
Garth starred on 90210 from 1990 to 2000 alongside Luke Perry, Jason Priestley and Shannon Doherty.
Aunt Becky from “Full House,” aka Lori Loughlin, also signed on to co-star on the show.

And I assume this is sponsored by Crocs? Or does Jenny Garth just hate her family?

oh come on! Crocs are comfortable!
Also, this show sounds like a train wreck. 90210 was bad enough the first time around, there’s really no need to bring it back again.
