Duh’nuh-nuh-nuh, Duh’nuh-nuh-nuh

Swoosh swoosh!

The return of America’s favorite zip code – and Shannen Doherty! – is upon us, and Jennie Garth and Doherty are gracing the cover of Entertainment Weekly this week to let everyone know about it.

This is major for The CW, an upstart network that in spite of having buzzed-about shows like Gossip Girl and Smallville on schedule – and having once had Veronica Mars and Gilmore Girls as its crown jewels – had yet to score this type of coverage.

Not since Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I don’t think, has EW given young-adult-targeted shows such a plum spot.

The article covers the reunion between the old co-stars, who appear to have left the past in the past, next to those persistent fistfight rumors.

It also contains their in-unison “No” when they were asked if they ever imagined they’d be working together again, and previews and spoilers about the 90210 remake that’s bringing Brenda Walsh from London back to California and for a visit with her frenemy Kelly Taylor.

I cannot wait for the two-hour premiere on Sept. 2. It’s going to be great to see these two on screen.
