Is Abby Malone (aka Michelle Phillips) going to attend the funeral of ex-husband Dennis Hopper? I'm wondering.
Last night I saw Sex and the City 2. It's very interesting that in both 90210 and the SATC franchise, Jason Lewis (aka Rob Andrews) plays a down-to-earth movie star who falls under the spell of an agressive, powerful woman who attempts to manage his career while also dating him. PS - 90210 did it first.

The Erin Silver Dilemma
I recently watched the California University 1997 graduation, which was, coincidentally, Erin Silver's graduation from Kindergarten. Lots of things are very amiss in Beverly Hills nowadays, and it seems to trace back to this episode. If we're going for continuity, Erin was actually right on target to graduate from Kindergarten in 1997, because she was an infant during the summer of 1992. I would know, since I tracked this on an Excel spreadsheet I made in my free time (by age, school year, and show season).
But, when Kelly gets shot at LAX in the parking lot and Jackie Taylor decides that Erin should still go to soccer practice as normal (????), you start to notice weird things happening. First, Steve calls her Erin Taylor. Hm. The name switching is a bit off, since Mel and Jackie were together, but we'll go with it.
Now, based on a traditional age progression, Erin should have graduated from high school in 2009. To be frank, I don't know what year the cast of the new 90210 is, but they aren't seniors. So, how many years was Erin "Silver" Taylor/Silver held back? I wonder, if Mrs. Teasley was still guiding, if she would have let this happen. She was right on top of Donna's unspecified learning disability. I mean, I find immense comfort in watching Kelly Taylor as an adult, but I have serious qualms about her ability to counsel students (if I caught a student doing drugs at a school play, I would have to take more serious action than advising her to make an appointment with me the following Monday). Would she really mess things up for her half-sister so horribly?
It's probably a good thing we don't see more of Hannah Rose Zuckerman-Vasquez. The age thing would bother me, even though I love every scrap of similarity the new 90210 throws me. Although, Andrea as a helicopter mom would be awesome. You know she would be. "Hannah, I need to proof your essay for Yale now! How is AP English?"
PS - Teddy = Roger Azarian
PSS - Ivy's mom = Serge Menken
