son graduates? OK, maybe we aren't quite there yet but the CW
is developing a spin-off of
Beverly Hills, 90210 - and no less than
Veronica Mars creator
Rob Thomas is in talks to bring it to life.
Details about the premise and whether any original cast members will reprise their roles are sketchy, says the
Reporter, but the netlet has fast-tracked the first script and is expected to order a pilot (or not) by the end of the month. Original
90210 creator Darren Star is
not involved, says the trade.
What's your take? A fitting companion piece to
Gossip Girl, or a recipe for spun-off disaster? Is Rob T. the man to make this work?
More intriguing, which series originals do you think might resurface for this revisiting? Let's take a roll call:
"
Jason: Awaiting word on
Side Order of Life, Season 2
"
Luke: Not awaiting word on
Windfall, Season 2
"
Ian: Hosting some obscure reality show
"
BAG: Rocking
Terminator... but for any longer?
"
Tori:
Slamming mom in new memoir
"
Gabrielle: Recovering from partial facial paralysis
"
Jennie: Recovering from
Dancing with the Stars
"
Shannen: Anyone...?
Poll: Good idea or bad?
