It has been almost 8 years since beloved teen soap Beverly Hills 90210 was taken off of FOX airwaves. Now, it seems as if the show is getting a second life. The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that fledgling network CW, home to One Tree Hill and America's Next Top Model, is developing a spin-off of the 90s TV staple. Potentially writing the pilot is Rob Thomas, the creator of former CW show Veronica Mars. The details of the show are still vague, including whether or not any characters from the original series will be returning.
90210 was originally produced by the late Aaron Spelling and written by Melrose Place and Sex and the City's Darren Starr. There's no word whether or not he will return for the new series either.
The new spin-off, if picked up for the 2008-2009 season, will be the second spin-off for the show. The first was Melrose Place, which was infamous for its over-the-top storylines that ended up overshadowing its originator.
News of the spin-off came after news that the struggling network was removing its comedy department completely and Saturday-morning staple Kid's WB would be canceled effective Fall of this year.
