‘BH90210’ Reboot Teaser Released And It All Comes Together Via Iconic Theme Song
As the Upfronts continue this week, Fox unveiled a teaser for the upcoming BH 90210 reboot that is set to air beginning on Wednesday, August 7th at 9PMET/PT.
In the updated version, the former teen idols will be playing heightened versions of themselves in the brand-new serialized drama inspired by their real lives and relationships with each other.
Back are original cast members: Jason Priestley, Shannen Doherty, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling will play versions of themselves.
As many know, Luke Petty, who passed away following complications after a massive stroke, sadly will not be part of the series.
In the promo/teaser, the actors are seen getting ready for the day by starting their coffee, jumping into their cars and more, but one thing is common hearing that ‘90210’ signature theme and those claps! It all is supposed to illustrate that a power bigger than them is conspiring to bring them all back together.
Watch the teaser below, and let us know if your interest is piqued for the BH90210 reboot in the comment section below.
I am SO in.
I have never seen it- huh
I googled it-
1990 to May 17, 2000
^^ is 2-decade old stuff..
and it looked like valley girl mall rat dumb LOL haa!
Oh, I have, SusieQ….you’ve never seen an episode? I was in grade school, but my twin and I never missed watching with my eldest sister. I will miss Luke.
Good stuff….❤️
Hi Celia, I used to watch it with my teen granddaughter, at the time.Loved it!
It’s not really a reboot, though. They aren’t playing their characters, they are playing themselves. It’s more like a spin-off 20 years after the fact. It would be a reboot if they hired a new generation of actors to play Brandon, Dylan, Kelly, etc.
You’re right!! ❤️
Beverly Hills 90210 was my show growing up as a teen in the 90s, loved it along with Melrose Place. What a great era that was, when both shows were going strong. It would be all the talk at school the next day. “Oh my god, did you see what Dylan and Kelly did? And what about that psycho Emily Valentine!” Fun times, great memories.
Reading about this new project, I’m not sure about it. Not sure what “heightened versions of themselves” means. Is it a drama, is it a reality show? But as a huge fan of the original, I will definitely check it out. As the cast reunites after all these years, Luke Perry will be very sorely missed.
Luke Perry-not Petty
I’ll be watching to see if they get gain my interest beyond the first show. Hope so.
I love it already and hoping Vanessa Marcil will make a surprise appearance.
Well, it was nice to see their faces, made me smile…comfort & home feeling…like all soap operas should = FAMILY. And the demographic is me…since, Luke Perry did not want to be a part of this version. Would have been smart and heartfelt to write-off his character and see the repercussions after loss of a loved one. More real. Make us laugh, make us cry, make us care. I’ll give it a shot.

George Cheeks, CBS President & CEO, on Timeline to Launch New Daytime Drama, ‘The Gates’: “We’re So Focused on Getting it Right”
March 2024 will be remembered in the TV and soap world when the news broke that CBS is prepping a brand new daytime drama. Many had thought a major network would never bring a new daytime soap into the world, given that the last time it was attempted was 25 years ago when the now defunct Passions bowed on NBC.
However, The Gates is definitely in development and moving forward with some major players associated with it including: Michele Val Jean as The Gates writer, showrunner and one of its executive producers, and Sheila Ducksworth from NAACP Venture
Now, for the first time since its announcement, George Cheeks, the president and CEO of CBS and chief content officer for news and sports at Paramount+, spoke on the project that will feature a Black family as its central focus who live in a wealthy gated community.
Speaking with Vulture, and when asked if The Gates is really something that truly has a chance of getting on the air, Cheeks clarified, “It’s super real. And just to give you a little bit of the backstory, when we hired Sheila Ducksworth to run the NAACP Venture, she and I had multiple meetings talking about what different genres she was going to lean into, and we talked a lot about daytime.”
Cheeks added, “One of the things that the data made very clear to both of us is that daytime soap operas over index with Black women, and yet when you look at soap operas, it’s usually sort of a white-led family with supporting characters that reflect more of our society. So we just thought, wouldn’t it be interesting to flip that and make the core anchor family a Black family, and then make the other characters reflect more the broader scope of society?”
The CEO gave props to Michele Val Jean, and how Ducksworth came to the table with the former B&B and GH writer. “She found this great writer, Michele Val Jean, who’s been in the soap opera space for 30 years. She came up with a pitch, and we loved it,” shares Cheeks. “We brought Procter & Gamble into it as well, because if there were going to be (product) integrations, we could do it more holistically and organically. All of that is to say, we did a lot of work on the front end to put this together. So while yes, it’s development, it’s accelerated development.”
When prodded on the timeline of when The Gates could come to full fruition, Gates related, “The actual timeline and when we’re going to do it is still uncertain, because we want to get this right. I mean, there hasn’t been a new soap opera launch since I can’t even begin to tell you when. But we have great success with Bold and the Beautiful and Young and the Restless, and so we think we’re the right folks to be launching a new soap. I wish I could tell you more about exact timing, but we’re so focused on getting it right, and that will dictate when we’re ready to launch it.”
The CBS exec also shared that whether The Gates will wind up an hour soap or half-hour is not yet determined, but that it is being developed as an hour show.
So, after reading what George Cheeks, the CBS President & CEO had to say about ‘The Gates’, are you even more excited for what looks to the first new network soap in 25 years? Comment below.

51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards Announce Broadcast Date on CBS
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) revealed on Tuesday, that the 51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards will be broadcast live on Friday night, June 7th (8 – 10 PM, ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network, and available to stream live and on-demand on Paramount+*.
This year will mark the 18th time CBS has broadcast the Daytime Emmy Awards, which is more than any other network.
The 2024 Daytime Emmys will take place at the Westin Bonaventure in downtown Los Angeles. Back in December of 2023, the delayed 50th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards were also held at that venue. The June 7th date for the upcoming ceremony will be the first time in several years that the event is scheduled a few weeks earlier than normal; excluding last year’s revised date to the actors and writers strikes.
Lifetime Achievement honoree, nominations, host, and additional information will be announced in the coming weeks.
In a statement, Adam Sharp, President and CEO of NATAS noted, “We eagerly anticipate our return in June as we once again partner with CBS to recognize the exceptional and talented individuals who make daytime television great. We’re thrilled to kick off our second half-century of the Daytime Emmys.”
The Daytime Emmy Awards have recognized outstanding achievement in television programming and crafts since 1974, honoring work in a variety of categories, including daytime dramas, talk shows, instructional programming, hosting, culinary, and legal/courtroom programs. In 2021, NATAS and the Television Academy jointly announced plans to realign the Daytime and Primetime Emmy Awards to be organized by content genre, as opposed to program airtime.
The 51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards will once again be produced by NATAS and Associated Television International (ATI), which produced Daytime Emmy Award ceremonies on The CW in 2009 and on CBS in 2010, 2011, 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. Adam Sharp and Lisa Armstrong are executive producers from NATAS, while David McKenzie is executive producer from ATI.
So, glad to know that the 51st Annual Daytime Emmy Awards honoring performance and shows in the 2023 calendar year, will be held in early June this year, and once again broadcast on CBS? Comment below.
