90210- They're on a boat!


So 90210, was Dixon's (Tristan Wilds) entire story line an extended joke on how old the cast members are? Because it kind of seemed like it was. Dixon meets grown woman who looks to be his age, then sees her at a party with ALL of his high school friends, and she immediately believes that they are all grown-ups and not high school kids. I don't even know what to believe anymore? Are they even supposed to look like high school kids? Because I know they don't, but I just assumed that on the show, this is what high school kids look like. Now, there is a character within the universe of the show who thinks that all of the these people look about 30. Granted she is very annoying, and has the most grating way of smiling in human history (is having some kind of facial tick like a requirement to be cast on this show?!), so maybe we are supposed to assume she is dumb. I mean she is billed as "the female Dixon" (and you are right Navid, that will never sound sexy.) and Dixon has been pretty thick-headed as of late. I just don't know.

Okay, on to the rest of the show! It was pretty good as a whole and there was was one super- awesome-so-great-I-can't-even-describe-to-you-how-great thing: NO JEN.

Other cool things include:

-Dixon's sweet fade.

-Liam (Matt Lanter)'s cuteness. (I think I am getting a crush on Liam! We hate all the same things, Jen, Annie, wilderness camp...and he is super hot. Don't worry, he's only two years younger than me, so it's not weird.)

-Adrianna's (Jessica Lowndes) dress in the school scenes! I want!

-Navid (Michael Steger)'s quote after Dixon complained that Silver (Jessica Stroup) gave him back a bunch of stuff he didn't even want "Yo, I'll take the calligraphy set if you still have it..."

-Dixon and Silver are SO NOT over each other. (Shut up. They were cute once upon a time.)

-Kelly (Jennie Garth)'s back! Crushing on Harry! Defending stupid Annie (Shenae Grimes)!

-Navid and Adrianna. They are cute! You know I love them. And yet, I totally get that Adrianna is still attracted to Teddy (who is SO STEVE SANDERS by the way) and vice versa. Nobody's a jerk in this situation, it is just a high school love triangle! YES!


-Sasha played 'Poison' by Bel Biv Devoe at the party! Cool party Teddy! That song rules.

-Annie's locker was defaced. No wait, that's not awesome, that's terrible. Locker graffiti ruins lives, people.

-Annie's parents found out about her slut-tastic ways! And they were pissed! Wait until they find out about her hobo-murdering.

-Annie went completely evil and mean. I kind of liked it. In a "can't wait to see her get her comeuppance" kind of way.

-Naomi (Annalyn McCord) and Silver were cute as totally horrifically damaged BFF's. Seriously if you think about what they were both so bummed out about in that scene for too long, it gets disturbing real fast.
.


-Liam running off to some crazy workshop in the dark and pulling out a bunch of blueprints. Please let those be the plans for some incredibly elaborate Annie-killing machine! Please!

It's 90210, so of course, some things were lame:

-The aforementioned Dixon/Sasha storyline. Puke.

-The fact that they made Annie retroactively not sleep with that loser guy who took the pic of her. They didn't do it, huh 90210? Cause that is really what you made it look like in the first episode!

-Harry/Debbie martial issues. Unless they are really going to let Kelly full on wreck that home, I do not want to see their petty squabbling.

-Dumb hats.

-Too much make-up Adrianna!

-The fact that I agreed with Annie on something. Prior to her crazy evil attack on Naomi on the boat party, she was pretty much completely innocent and Naomi did something awful to her. Silver can't really have it both ways at that point, because Naomi was being pretty horrible and lying! I hate agreeing with Annie, but come on Silver. May this never happen again.

-Dixon's an idiot.

-The idea that there are enough people on The Blaze that like anchovies that they would order an entire pizza with them on it.

-The preview and the previous-lies, which both had Jen in them.

-The fact that Jen is on this show.

Next week: Dixon goes to Napa with the old lady! Adrianna kisses Teddy! My DVR cuts off!

Krista,
The Sasha/Dixon story line somewhat reminded me of a story about you and a young gentleman at the Library last week. I mean, we can't all know people's ages until we see their IDs.
Hahahaha!
