The new 90210 connections to the past?

Question

OK so I watched the new 90210 last night and I caught on to some of the connections to the old show, but I missed some too!

Silver is Kelly's little sister? What happened to their mom and why doesn't Kelly speak to her Mom to even know how she is?

Andrea Zuckerman's baby is on the show as a teenager?

Does this math add up? Haha.

What other connections did I miss??

Answer 1

Of course it doesn't add up. Its Beverly Hills. hahaha!

Yes, Silver is Kellys sister and it looks like Jackie is still around, based on the previews. She is apparently divorced from Mel and is a drinker this time. On the orginial she was into drugs. Kelly probably (pure speculation on my part) has issues with Jackie based on the fact that Kelly is now a mother and doesn't want Sammy (her son) around his drunken grandmother.

What I want to know is; is Dylan Sammys father? And if so, does that mean he's going to make an appearance? I heard that Brandon is going to show up. It was sure weird seeing Kelly and Brenda together after all these years.

Having Hanna be in the opening scene, delivering the West Beverly news was priceless. Like mother, like daughter.

As for any other connections, I don't think you missed any.

I didn't get who Harry Wilson is supposed to be in the picture with Kelly that they looked at sort've in the beginning? I don't remember a Harry Wilson at West Beverly on the orginial and I'm pretty sure I've seen them all.....twice, haha!

Interesting show..

Answer 2

Next weeks previews showed up Kelly's mom, she just had a lot of plastic surgery in the last 10+ years...

Those are the same 2 connections that I caught onto as well. But I guess that means that Andrea may come back in a future episode?

Answer 3

I didn't watch last night but I'm a big fan of the old series.  Let me see if I can help...

Kelly's little sister was named Erin Silver, bc she's the product of Kelly Taylor's mom and David Silver's dad.  So per this logic, the name "Silver" makes sense.

Andrea had her baby in season 4, which was circa 1994... which would make the kid 14 today!!!  So the math should add up...

Would love to hear more connections!!!  If you want to watch the first 4 seasons of the original 90210 (HIGHLY recommended), I've been doing so here:

Better than Degrassi.

Answer 4

* Silver IS Kelly's little sister.  Her name is Erin, but prefers "Silver."  She takes care of her now because apparently we'll find out that Mel and her mom got a divorce and she became an alcoholic.

* Hannah is Andrea's daughter with her husband Jesse, who was the law student.

* We'll eventually find out that Kelly's son, Sammy, is actually Dylan's son which leaves it open for him to come back into the picture.

Answer 5

Those were really the only connections.

Oh, and to everyone saying about Dylan, Brandon and Andrea coming back, none of them are planning on it. Luke says he isn't interested at this time, Gabrielle wasn't approached to return, and Jason is planning to direct a few episodes (but not star is any...yet).

Answer 6

let's see  we did see that girl hanna zuckerman's kid and we did see the joke behind that since on the set of 90210 she was the oldest cast member, who knows where that goes as well silver is david's sister as well kelly's david's dad was always a cheater and kelly's mom had her share of drug problems the only other thing i can connect is the baby to brenda as his aunt and brandon as his dad we'll see

On August 11, 2008, it was reported by The Associated Press that Jason Priestley has decided to reprise his role as Brandon Walsh

for now dylan will not be coming back
