'90210' ratings good

Shannen Doherty (The CW)The ratings are in: The premiere of "90210" performed well for The CW, earning a 3.9 rating/6 share, 34 percent better than "Gossip Girl" on Monday, according to The Programming Insider.

The only bad news: While No. 3 in its time slot for its first hour, "90210" dropped to No. 4 in its second hour as ratings declined. Clearly there was a curiosity tune-in, but will that hold up as the weeks go on? We'll see.

I caught bits and pieces of it, though I missed most of the first hour so I had some trouble figuring out who was who. It seemed okay. I probably tuned in more because I watched the original and was curious to see what they were going to do with Kelly and Brenda (Nat was a surprise to me). And I did catch a few of the original episodes during Soapnet's marathon, so that helped renew my interest.

I will probably watch again next week if I remember, but it is too soon to tell if this show will grab me. It has been years since I watched something like this and stuck with it.

I missed Hannah, but I did a quick check on IMDB, and her character was born in an episode that aired in '95, if I remember correctly, which would make her about 13ish. Not sure what year she is supposed to be in high school, but considering the way babies on soaps typically age, pretty good.

Where did you find the Hannah info on IMDB? I searched around to a bunch of sites last night but wasn't sure what season Hannah was born in and the episode titles at epguides.com didn't clue me in. I guess if she's a freshman than the time line works out OK. Same for Erin Silver.
