With the greenlight of the new 90210-spinoff and Jeenie Garth’s departure from the “My Best Friend’s Girl” pilot brings Kelly Taylor back to Beverly High. The Hollywood Reporter has:

“90210,” from CBS Par, centers on a three generational Beverly Hills family. Original cast member Jennie Garth has signed on to recur, reprising her role as Kelly Taylor from the original series who now will be a guiding counselor at her alma mater, West Beverly Hills High.

This is a good move by the producers as they need to bring the grown-up fans of the previous show to this new teen show. Not being recurring is good for her as it would most likely be a step back in her on-again, off-again career. I think they need to get at least one more former cast member for the premier to bring in the former 90210 fans. What do you think?
