One of the definitive shows of the 1990s, "90210" originally follows the lives of Brandon and Brenda Walsh, who both eventually leave the show, and their friends through high school and college into adulthood. In addition to making sideburns momentarily cool again during its run, the show deals with a steady stream of love triangles and other romantic entanglements, and occasionally touches on more serious issues as well.

Miles Beller The Hollywood Reporter An interesting treatment of the fish-out-of-water outing. B.H., 90210 transports a Midwestern family, the Walshes, out west to B.H. Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times A ZIP code for stereotypes and stock characters, Beverly Hills, 90210 is nothing if not predictable. Mar 1, 2018 Full Review Kay Gardella New York Daily News Social issues, we're promised, will be dealt with in future episodes. But tomorrow night's premiere is just a getting-to-know-you outing with few sparks. If the show survives until next semester, it'll be surprising. Jan 18, 2018 Full Review Kelly West CinemaBlend For better or worse, I stuck with the series and there could be no better day than today to admit that I still enjoy it to some extent, mostly for nostalgic reasons. Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media The series will forever be remembered as a cultural phenomenon that defines the 1990s. Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Mike P This is just a souped up, glamorized version of The Beverly Hillbillies. And actually that show had more likeable, realistic and believable characters. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh the nostalgia... The 90's were the best.
