The 90210
Addiction
It's a Wednesday night at the University ot Ore
gon and what's on everyone's agenda tor this
. evening's events'’
Are you planning to practice your dance skills a!
Guido's, mpress the opposite sex with upside down
tap hits, or sr! at home in your reclmer eagerly await
mg an exerting evening with Brenda, Dylan and the
res! ot the gang on Beverly Hills 90210°
Many University students have given up the tradi
tional Wednesday night parties in favor ot a high
tense. last paced night ot Beverly Hills 90210
And who wouldn't want to spend an hour each
week following ihe problems ot nch white kids from
Beverty Hills"’
The show digs deep into the controversial issues
troubling our youth today drunk-drtving, pre marital
sex. teen-age pregnancy and engine troubles in
porches
At the end ot these often heart wrenching and
always heart warming episodes, the rich white kids
ot Beverly Hills teach viewers a very deep and very
moral lesson to carry with them until next week The
iesson being, il you're going lo drmk. don't drive, if
you’re going to have sex please use a condom and
if you re going to a beach party please please make
sure your shoes match your bikini
Each week the beautiful girls ot Beverly Hills
90210 /ip down Rodeo Drive in their beamers. sip
lemonade on the beach, chat about boys in class,
and show oft the latest fashions Irom Vogue , a com
pendium ot the largest breasts in the smallest shirts
So what is it that keeps these habituates of 90210
fixed on the TV each Wednesday night-’
Some watch it lor the innovatrve visual techniques
that capture the underlying aesthetic qualities
”1 wouldnt miss an episode,"University junior
David Curruthers said You never know when they
m»ght show Donna m a bathing suit "
Others enjoy the sensitive portrayal ot teen
romance
"t love 1 when Brenda and Dylan make out at their
lockers and I’m still waiting to see it David will ever
get lucky with Donna," University treshman Krista
Ward said
Senior Lucas J Gutman is drawn to the show
because ot it's rich sense ot ironic humor
"I am a tan ot all things so awful they make me
laugh." he said
Besides, where else can one see full-grown
women squeezed into adolescent clothing7
The outfits ot Beverly Hills 90210 play a major
role that almost replaces the need for any acting at
all. The tashion conscience girls ot 90210 cleverly
select outfits to match their message, so tiresome
concepts tike conversation can be avoided This
leaves more time for the tans to watch the girls frol
ic through a hard day ot parties, beaches and malls.
This innovative technique also eliminates the
need for plot. Instead of a new plot each week thrf
actors just change outfits *
It is no wonder Beverly Hills 90210 has become
such a trend for Wednesday night viewers Hope
fully all of you can hold out until next week when
more exciting questions will be resolved Such as:
Will Kelly ever find a boyfriend7 Can Donna's dress
es get any shorter7 And will Brenda and Brandon,
the two loving and good-natured twins from Min
nesota, ever involve themselves in incestuous
endeavors7
