SOAPNet plans Beverly Hills 90210 beach marathon
So Shannen may be coming to the new 90210, and Jennie is definitely in the cast, and Tori will miss the first few episodes because she just had a baby, but generally speaking, there’s been lots of buzz and interest in the upcoming, 2008 version of Beverly Hills 90210.
While CW gears up for the new, SOAPNet is happy to celebrate the old.
On Saturday, July 26th, SOAPNet will glory in the 50 hottest moments of the original Fox series. From 4:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m., ET/PT, three beach-oriented episodes of the show will be shown back-to-back-to-back, with six interstitials that will reveal from 1-50, the hottest “moments” in BH 90210 history.
The three episodes will be as follows:
– The Party Fish: Brandon gets a job at the beach club, but he learns more about life and love when he has a romance with an older woman.
– Sex, Lies and Volleyball / Photo Fini: Brandon and Steve have the hots for the same new beach volleyball player, Brooke, while in Paris, Donna and Brenda enjoy all things French.
– So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye: Brenda’s off to college in Minnesota while the gang moves into a new summer beach house and throw her a goodbye party.
I was never a full-time BH 90210 watcher, but one of the great things about SOAPNet is being able to catch up now. The episodes are highly addictive. Damn that Aaron Spelling and his TV acumen! So if you’re at all curious about the new 90210, DVR this mini-marathon or tune in to get a taste of the way they were.
Len Wiseman To Direct Gears Of War Movie!
Len Wiseman, director of Live Free or Die Hard and penetrator of Kate Beckinsale has signed up to direct Gears of War according to Variety. Wanted and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift writer Chris Morgan is currently writing a re-draft of Stuart Beattie’s version.
“Gears” is Microsoft’s second biggest seller after the “Halo” franchise, and gamemaker Epic always intended to branch the property out into various media, such as films and novels, with an extensive backstory it developed for the property.
New Line had initially aimed for a summer 2009 release for the pic, but further development on the project will now likely delay that plan.
Gears of War joins God of War, BioShock and Price of Persia in the game-to-movie adaptations. It’s becoming a new trend in Hollywood, and its good to see people who aren’t Uwe Boll directing these types of movies.
Heidi Klum Gears Up For Project Runway Season 4
Heidi Klum Gears Up For Project Runway Season 4
Yesterday at Lincoln Center in New York City, Project Runway was kicking off their fourth season with a fashion show preview.
Heidi Klum was dressed to impress in a royal blue (not many women can pull off that color) gown and her hair pulled back. And according to her, the new season is must-see tv.
Klum alluded to the fact that season four would be a little more dramatic than its predecessors. “One person has a spitting technique of marking their marks on the fabric. I’ve never seen things like that. You can’t write that!”
And PR mentor/judg Tim Gunn reports that this season’s batch is the cream of the crop. “This is the first season I’ve said any one of the designers is talented enough to win the entire season.”
Project Runway season four premieres November 14th on the Bravo Network.
