To: 90210@ferkel.ucsb.edu Subject: 90210 guide (L-O-N-G) Date: Sat, 15 May 93 03:06:28 +1000 A lot of people have been asking for this; this consists of all the Weekly Updates from Mike Emmons cat'ed together (except 3.19 and 3.20 which use the mini guide entries, since I did not get the Weekly Update for these) and some other stuff, including a list of air-times for the original screening of episodes, and a few other bits, some of which are a little outdated, but they are here, nonetheless. (If anyone has the time or inclination to correct these, they are more than welcome...) DISCLAIMER: I am not the author of these works, all credit for the content herein should go to the tireless efforts of Mike Emmons - a round of applause if you will...

In the opener, Brandon gains notoriety after his first date, and Brenda dates a lawyer after using an altered ID to get into a dance club. Photo promo: The nice normal Walsh family just moved from Minneapolis to Beverly Hills. It might as well be Mars. Guidelines: Alas, there's no Luke Perry in the 1990 pilot of Beverly Hills, 90210 (he joined the show in the second episode), but Shannen Doherty is on hand as Brenda, a recent arrival who has her hands full after attracting a lawyer and letting him think she's in college. 1.02 10-11-90 "The Green Room" The Walshes come to see that style is no substitute for substance as Brandon hits the beach with one new friend (Luke Perry) who may have both, and another who fears she has neither, while Brenda is left high and dry there by style-conscious Kelly. Guidelines: The week's second 90210 is a repeat of the series' second episode EVER, in which teen hearthrob Luke Perry made his debut as dashing Dylan McKay. Dylan makes a strong impression on Brandon, and vice versa, in a well-crafted outing that also focuses on Brandon's growing friendship with a girl with low self-esteem. 1.03 10-18-90 "Every Dream Has Its Price (Tag)" Brenda's new friend has a problem, in which Brenda suddenly finds herself included. Meanwhile, Brandon gets a job, and Cindy gets a maid, against her wishes. 1.04 10-25-90 "The First Time" Brandon gets a visit from his Minneapolis girlfriend, who brings pleasure one night, but pain the next. Meanwhile, Brenda has an adventure in baby-sitting for a hunk teacher. 1.05 11- 1-90 "One on One" Recruits from outside the school district may sink Brandon's shot at making the basketball team. Meanwhile, Brenda takes her third - or fourth - shot at driver's training. 1.06 11-15-90 "Higher Education" Cheating seems justified to Brandon when he feels victimized by a teacher's grading curve. Meanwhile, Brenda suffers from poor hair coloring. 1.07 11-22-90 "Perfect Mom" Brenda envies Kelly's relationship with her hip-looking mom, until she sees another side at a public event, where Andrea blossoms. 1.08 11-29-90 "The 17 Year Itch" A reunion with the dashing photographer who introduced them in college illuminates some stress between Cindy and Jim, whose differences are reflected in their kids. 1.09 12- 6-90 "The Gentle Art of Listening" On a teen help line, untrained volunteer Brenda becomes the trusted contact for a date-rape victim. Meanwhile, Brandon falls for a worldly older woman. (Guest: Lisa Dean Ryan (Doogie Howser)) 1.10 1- 3-91 "Isn't It Romantic?" While Brandon is wary, Jim is definitely opposed to the growing attraction between Brenda and Dylan. 1.11 1-10-91 "B.Y.O.B." Brandon's first experience with tequila isn't as meaningful as his second, when he and Brenda host a party while their parents are away. 1.12 1-24-91 "One Man and a Baby" Brandon learns some pitfalls of parenthood when he dates a senior who baby-sits a lot; Brenda and Kelly learn to take a fall - out of a plane. 1.13 1-31-91 "Slumber Party" Kelly's friend brings an attitude to Brenda's girls' night in. Meanwhile, Steve and Brandon walk a lonely road on a night out with two comely women. Photo promo: Intimate secrets will be revealed. Startling confessions will be made.

Photo promo: "Watch it for a couple of weeks - and you may get as hooked as I am" John Voorhees The Seattle Times 1.18 3-28-91 "It's Only a Test" Worries about SATs take a back seat when Brenda finds a lump in her breast, a fear heightened by her family's medical history.

Photo promo: Beverly Hills, 90210.

Meanwhile, class success Donna plays the stock market for real. 2.11 10-10-91 "Leading from the Heart" A mutual attraction between Kelly and the Walshes' visiting cousin is complicated more by others' assumptions than by Bobby's wheelchair. Meanwhile, Brenda takes another driving test. 2.12 10-17-91 "Down and Out of District in Beverly Hills" Brandon's good deed turns into a bad seed for Andrea, as it grows into the possibility of her expulsion from West Beverly.

Problems arise when the school catches on, and Grandma refuses to lie. 2.13 10-31-91 "Halloween" A Halloween party is highlighted by Kelly's bewitching costume - and lowlighted by someone's reaction to it.

Guidelines: Halloween thrills are offset by serious chills on a fairly scary Beverly Hills, 90210. Guidelines: From October: Halloween party thrills are offset by serious chills on a cautionary Beverly Hills, 90210, in which Kelly is attacked by another guest at the gathering.

Photo promo: Tonight, Brandon finds out about drugs and Emily... the hard way. Guidelines: Drugs, alcohol and the inherent loss of control they bring are addressed on a solid Beverly Hills, 90210 in which Brandon is slipped a curve - a drug - by girlfriend Emily, whose intention is to bring them closer together - it doesn't. 2.16 11-21-91 "My Desperate Valentine" Hard to do, but it must be done, so Brandon breaks up with Emily, who doesn't take it gracefully. Meanwhile, Brenda and Dylan declare a night filled with music instead of making out. Photo promo: When Brandon broke up with Emily, things got weird. Now they're getting dangerous. Guidelines: Mysterious phone calls and threatening letters reminiscent of "Fatal Attraction" highlight a taut Beverly Hills, 90210 in which Brandon - ever the gentlman - makes it "crystal clear" to Emily that they are no longer a couple. And Emily does not take the news like a lady. 2.17 12-12-91 "Chuckie's Back" A reunion show for Steve's mother hinges on her former TV son, Steve's childhood nemesis whose current needling prompts Steve to fight back at the wrong time.

Meanwhile, doubts and suspicions grow concerning a mysterious Santa. 2.19 1- 9-92 "Fire and Ice" Brandon becomes a pleasant distraction for a figure skater with Olympian goals; backstabbing is included in Brenda's tutoring in retail-sales skills. Guidelines: Beverly Hills, 90210 takes advantage of Jason Priestley's ice-skating skill in this episode addressing dedication to craft. Randy Gardner choreographed the skating sequences and plays an Olympic hopeful's assistant coach; Tai Babilonia plays a TV announcer. 2.20 1-23-92 "A Competitive Edge" Brandon trades his reporter's pen for track shoes, until he smells a story he can't - and shouldn't - ignore. And Brenda's minor accident turns major when the woman she bumped claims whiplash. Guidelines: Clandestine meetings ... anonymous sources ... the threat of violence against a suspected squealer. No, it's not an expose of a covert government operation, it's just another day in Beverly Hills, 90210, where steroid use becomes an issue at West Beverly High. Brenda's dubious driving ability is the subject of a subplot. 2.21 2- 6-92 "Everybody's Talkin' 'Bout It" The condom-distribution program at school had many talking, some writing and one most adamant - until there's an unkind comment from an unlikely source.

And Jim gets hooked on Karoake. Photo promo: [pic of Luke and Brenda] Maybe it was just too good to last? 90210 Guidelines: The relationship of Beverly Hills, 90210's most popular couple is strained when Brenda catches the eye of a pre-med student, while Dylan is busy trying to help a fellow AA member. 2.24 3-19-92 "The Pit and the Pendulum" Brenda and Brandon take opposite sides after learning Jim's new client plans a multimillion- dollar development that would absorb the Peach Pit.

Guidelines: Hip-hop group Color Me Badd visits Beverly Hills, 90210, and David, Donna, Brenda and a reluctant Kelly try to visit them at their hotel. Naturally, Kelly is the one who succeeds. 2.27 4-30-92 "Mexican Standoff" Brenda goes anyway after obtaining, then losing permission to go to Mexico with Dylan, whose old friend helps rid Kelly of her blues about her mom's wedding bells. Part 1 of two. Photo promo: A secret weekend in Mexico? Have they gone too far?

But the thought is also shared by Kelly and Dylan. 3.07 9-09-92 "A Song for Myself" School's in, and David's in for it then his summer fling (Dana Barron) becomes a transfer student - and Donna's buddy.
