Catalog log

Broadcast listing — not a TV Flash recap.

Dylan and Kelly finally break up due to the tension between them as well as Dylan spending more time with Erica, Suzanne and Kevin. Kelly openly tells Dylan that she doesn't trust Suzanne and Kevin over their continuing presence. One morning, Erica tells Dylan that she overheard her mother and boyfriend talking about moving to South America, but Kevin and Suzanne easily convince Dylan that Erica misheard what they were talking about and that they want to relocate Kevin's new chemical company in Arizona in the southwest. Dylan considers investing in Kevin's new business, as does Jim, who agrees to be a silent partner. Meanwhile, Brenda finds old feelings for Dylan returning to her when he gives her an opening night gift before the play. Elsewhere, David sees danger of his drug use returning in working with a new rock band for the CU's Mardi Gras. Andrea is hospitalized and has strange dreams fearing she may lose the baby. Also, Brandon tries to meet with an elusive Chancellor Arnold after he sees that his name is not on the list of Task Force members set to meet the President, thinking that the time he spent with Clare may have cost him the trip to Washington. But, Brandon eventually learns that his name being absent from the list was just a printing mistake all along.

Minnesota twins drop into Beverly Hills High and teach Fox that teens will show up weekly. Darren Star and Aaron Spelling built zip-code soap from peach-pit romance, Luke Perry heartthrob mythology, and Very Special Topics — then aged the courtyard into adulthood without ever leaving the brand. The teen-drama industrial complex starts here, spinoffs included.

So about the ZIP code. Minnesota twins Brandon and Brenda Walsh land at Beverly Hills High and Fox learns, in public, that teens will show up every week for peach-pit romance, pool-party lighting, and a curriculum of Very Special Topics. Darren Star created it; Aaron Spelling produced it (1990–2000). Luke Perry's Dylan, Shannen Doherty's Brenda, Jason Priestley's Brandon, Jennie Garth's Kelly, Tori Spelling's Donna — the original ensemble that made appointment TV out of adolescent melodrama.
