Beverly Hills 90210 ran for 10 years from 1990. TV being what it is today (bereft of new ideas) that means the time is right for a spin-off series. Instead of nice guy Brandon and bad girl Brenda we have Annie and Dixon Wilson, siblings who have moved to swanky Beverly Hills from somewhere far more provincial. Teen angst at West Beverly High is juxtaposed with the dramas of their parent's generation. Shenae Grimes, Tristan Wilds, Jessica Stroup, AnnaLynne McCord, Rob Estes, Jennie Garth, Shannen Doherty.
