Dear Jenny,
How excited are you about the Beverly Hills, 90210 remake/sequel/adaptation/reimaginationation? A little? Moderately? A lot? As much as I am? I feel like I need to start documenting every new development, because all the news we've gotten so far has been really encouraging. 1. You know that Rob Thomas developed it for the CW, right? Good. 2. You read where Defamer got ahold of that memo listing the proposed central characters, right? And you ignored that one of the characters is going to be a video blogger named "Silver"? 3. Did you know that although Rob Thomas is going to be too busy with Cupid and Good Behavior to move beyond an initial treatment, the CW has hired Gabe Sachs and Jeff Judah to write the pilot? This is, I think, very good news. We know Sachs and Judah from Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared. I watched and mostly entirely liked life as we know it, the high school show they did for ABC a while ago. I can't speak to What About Brian. I watched maybe an episode and a half and I remember almost nothing about it, except that ABC kept it around a lot longer than you would think.
Love,
-- Pete
