Australians won't have to wait long to see the revamped spin-off of Beverly Hills, 90210: the sexy new series debuts on local screens Monday, September 8, just six days after its world premiere.
According to The Daily Telegraph, Network Ten will screen the two-hour pilot episode of 90210 from 8.30pm. The original series also aired in Ten in the '90s.
"The show is already creating buzz in Generation Y," said Ten's chief programming officer David Mott. "I think [airing 90210 is] a no brainer... it all speaks to the Ten brand perfectly."
Mott revealed that the new 90210 will include all the romantic soapiness that fans of the original series have come to expect, while also dealing with topical issues such as drugs, sex and peer pressure.
"[90210 is] going to be a reflection of all the best elements from the initial series, but quite clearly it will have grown with the times also because television is a lot smarter now than it was in the early 1990s," he said. "It will be bolder than what it was."
90210 premieres on Network Ten on Monday, September 8, at 8.30pm.
