Tonight, FOX returns us to the second zip code that you know (the first being your home zip code) – 90210.
This mini-series focuses on the lives of the stars of the famed 1990s teen drama today and I’m sure there will be drama.
A search of the Times-Tribune Archive turned up over 700 references to the show. Some were television grid listing but most were weekly previews or recaps of the program. Also the show was promoted on the daily television page several times with promotional photos from the program.

You can check out the new BH 90210 tonight (Aug 7) on Fox at 9pm.
I would be amiss to mention two items having to due with 90210 cast member Gabrielle Carteris. First in May 1992, she married Kingston native Charles Isaacs in a ceremony at the Santa Barbara Four Seasons Biltmore Hotel. The second is that Carteris came to Wilkes-Barre to lead the “Walk for Sobriety” on Sept 19. The walk was apart of day long festival sponsored by the City of Wilkes-Barre and CORE5.
