Shannon Doherty is returning to the show that made her famous. She will reprise her role as Brenda Walsh on the CW renewal of FOX' classic teen-drama, 90210.
Doherty's character is now a famous director, hired to stage a musical for the local highschool, where fellow alumnus, Jennie Garth (returning as Kelly Taylor), now works as a guidance counselor. The two made tabloid headlines during the original run of the program through various fistfights and reported brawls.
Tori Spelling is also returning.
So: Garth and Prue used to duke it out, then she pissed-off Phoebe and managed to get killed-off on Charmed. She appeared in Kevin Smith's sophomore effort, Mallrats, and... nothing else. She was the first host for Sci-Fi Channel's Scare Tactics... for about 10 episodes. But all in all, she's done a hell of a lot of TV.
I do not care anything about 90210 (never watched any of its spin-offs, either) - I don't know why I would - but I am interested to see how far this goes. Shannen Doherty's turn will span several episodes, but she is not now considered a regular (though I have a feeling she will be recurring, as the series is bound to run for some time).
