After the longest winter break in history, 90210 is finally back! Did this episode live up to the stellar "Winter Wonderland" half season finale thing in December?! No, not really at all. Parts of it were kind of annoying, parts of it were enraging, and parts of it were just kinda boring. Some things were still awesome though, I admit. Such as:
-Naomi and Ivy's totally awkward interaction, complete with the line "I found if you spoke loudly and slowly enough you could get through to them that you did not want their island junk."
-Liam was there, being hot and stuff.
-Naomi remembering that her entire relationship with Liam pre-him doing her sister pretty much consisted of sex and smirking, causing her to then show up at his boat- building place naked.-Lucky # 3 from General Hospital played Deb and Kelly's hot yoga teacher! This is the only thing even remotely good about the parent's story line tonight.
-Oh no wait, the part where Deb made fun of Annie's, "snarky derisive laugh" was pretty great too. Wow, Annie is so awful, even her own parents know it.
-Ivy and Liam are still BFF! They WILL be together, I can feel it!
-Adrianna and Rumer Willis? Kinda cute together! 
-Like Naomi, I want to "forget about Jen and everything she's ever done forever." Sounds about right.
Onto annoying:
-Why is Rob Estes suddenly mugging like one of the Three Stooges in every scene he's in? Tone it down man! It's like he's been taking "weird face-making" classes from Shanae Grimes!
-I think they made Jennie Garth wear a really unflattering dress in that stupid party scene just so she wouldn't seem like a threat to Deb and Harry's marriage or Deb and the yoga dude's flirtation.
-Navid and Dixon's terrible terrible hijinks. Life tip: when you are in the midst of a secret plan to destroy someone, walking by him and smiling triumphantly before anything has even happened is a really good way to tip him off.-Does Adrianna have to be totally awkward with her friends to become friends with Gia? Couldn't they have just met and hit it off when she was not all vulnerable and weird?
-Does Gia have to wear that weird fedora thing? We get that she's a lesbian people, don't worry about it.
-Where was Ryan Matthews? I want to know how his drinking problem has been progressing!
EN
RAGING:
-The fact that Navid bought cocaine with which to set up Jasper. Out of character much? And I can't even feel that bad about him getting in trouble for it, because he did indeed buy drugs and bring them to school, so it's not exactly unjust.
-I can't believe Deb and Harry got Annie such a cheap phone! That thing practically shattered into a million pieces when she used her stick arm to throw it barely halfway across the room!
Kinda boring-
I don't know how they do it, but somehow even a relationship based on murder and blackmail can't really make me care about Annie and Jasper. I mean come on Annie, at this point even jail would be preferable to dating Jasper, so just turn your bum -killing- booby-flasher self in.
So, while I'm happy to have 90210 back, the next episode needs to STEP IT UP.
Next week:
Love triangles, hiking and some Ryan Matthews!
