A surprising amount of fun. ... The result is just smart enough to feel clever, just silly enough to feel relaxing, a guilty pleasure by design.
BH90210 promises a frothy warm-weather watch, perfect for Brendan and Kelly fans to unwind with after a beach day. But the most surprising thing about this particular reboot is how it slips in some valuable life lessons between the soapy storylines.

“BH90210” offers a delicious, entertaining return fans will want to gorge themselves on at least initially.
"Meta" is the word used most to describe this strange take on a reboot, which in its very weirdness will have viewers—all of whom will be those that watched the original series when it aired in real-time, none of whom will be fans that aren't the ages of the actors/characters as it will make absolutely no sense to them.
It’s meant solely for die-hard fans of the old show, while not really being a continuation of it. Even at its best, it tops out at mediocre. ... After a while, the sheer oddity of it all becomes a bit of a hook unto itself.
There are a lot of spinning plates, and while none of them come crashing down, they wobble, slowly. Watching the first two episodes made me nervous: I kept expecting the whole thing to tip over into catastrophe. Instead, it stays in mediocrity.
Not good enough to be praised (like Episodes), not bad enough to be entertaining (like the first seasons of 90210, the 2008 TV series). It's not even a guilty pleasure.
The cast still has its chemistry, but everything else feels contrived and forced. There really is no point in watching this, sadly.

SEASON 1
I enjoyed the original show, but this reboot feels nothing like it.
The writing is lazy, like final season of game of thrones lazy. The group dynamic feels forced.
Gabrielle's lesbian feelings feels very forced and cringy. Sure, its easier to cover certain topics that were a no-go in the 90s, but was this really the best way to that? In the very very first episode just throw it out there?
Obviously the show also suffers from a missing Luke Perry, one of the more charismatic actors of the original show.
After watching the second episode I started the wonder if I wouldn't be better of watching Sharknado again, which is not a good thing.

SEASON 1
This show reminds us how badly the real thing has dated, especially it's stars. They all peaked professionally in their Beverly Hills days. Sadly even the bad make up can't hide that they need new faces(from Game of Thrones) to be attracted to a younger audience.
