If you ever need to send a letter to an address in Beverly Hills, think back to the newly revamped fall TV show, “90210.” This prime-time television drama follows the lives of teenagers and their experiences at West Beverly Hills High school. The main characters are Annie Wilson (Shinae Grimes) and her brother Dixon (Tristan Wilds). The Wilson family relocated from Kansas to Beverly Hills to take care of Annie’s and Dixon’s paternal grandmother. With a whole crew of “average” teenagers in a highly stereotypical American high school, the Wilson siblings go through the struggles of being the “new kids” and learn how to deal with the social scene at West Beverly Hills High.
“90210” is based on the original show, “Beverly Hills, 90210.” It was highly popular when it aired from 1990 to 2000 on the FOX channel and various other networks worldwide. “90210” premiered on Sept. 2 and is currently airing on the CW network at 8 p.m. every Tuesday.

ValentineWho said only Cupid had the ability to bring about love? Turns out Greek gods have a hand in this. In the CW’s new fall television series, “Valentine,” the Valentine family is made up of Greek gods who help two people find true love by bringing them together. In their version of Mount Olympus, the Valentines live in a mansion in the Hollywood hills, all the while keeping their true identities as a secret. Meet Grace Valentine (Jaime Murray), her son Danny (Kristoffer Polah), Leo (Robert Baker) and Phoebe Valentine (Autumn Reeser).
Grace, who strongly believes in true love, takes on the role of Aphrodite while Danny is the god Eros, trading in a bow and arrow for a gun that makes two people fall in love temporarily. Meanwhile, Leo could double as the legendary Hercules because of his physical strength. Phoebe, on the other hand, is the family’s seer and is able to control the Oracle so that it will show who a person is truly in love with.
“Valentine” premieres on Oct. 5 and will show at 8 p.m. every Sunday on the CW network.
