Beverly Hills, 90210 Fox Broadcasting Company, 'Beverly Hills, 90210' and Yahoo! Combine Efforts To Benefit Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network Several Items To Be Auctioned On Yahoo! Auctions, Including A Trip To The '90210' Set; Series Star Jennie Garth Participates In Online Yahoo! Chat In Support Of RAINN SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- September 1999 -- As Jennie Garth's character Kelly Taylor confronted her rapist in the 10th season premiere of BEVERLY HILLS, 90210 Wednesday, Sept. 8 (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET/PT) on FOX, FOX Broadcasting Company, BEVERLY HILLS, 90210, and Yahoo! Inc. (Nasdaq: YHOO) joined together to raise awareness and money for RAINN, the only national hotline for victims of sexual assault. Coinciding with the season premiere, the efforts kicked off on Sept. 8 -- with an online charity auction hosted by Yahoo! ® Auctions (http://auctions.yahoo.com) to benefit RAINN. During last season's BEVERLY HILLS, 90210, Garth's character, Kelly Taylor, was brutally raped. In an unprecedented partnership, 90210 and FOX included the RAINN hotline directly into the show's script. After the attack, a nurse at the hospital suggested that Kelly seek counseling and referred her to the RAINN hotline, which she later called for additional help. That episode prompted a RAINN record of 4,000 calls to the hotline immediately following the show. "Spelling, FOX and Jennie Garth worked closely with RAINN to make sure Kelly's rape and recovery were portrayed accurately and sensitively. The enormous response from 90210 fans calling the hotline is a credit to the show's popularity and a direct result of the strong commitment from the network and the producers and cast. By also joining efforts with Yahoo!, we will further increase awareness of RAINN and provide information and help to countless victims of sexual assault," said Scott Berkowitz, RAINN's president. "BEVERLY HILLS, 90210 has remained relevant to today's teenagers and young adults by accurately portraying the issues which they must face everyday. The partnership with RAINN has allowed us to bring attention to an important issue, while letting viewers know that help is just a phone call away via the RAINN hotline," said Aaron Spelling, President of Spelling Television. At the conclusion of Wednesday's 90210 premiere, FOX aired a special public service announcement from Garth, while FOX, Spelling and Yahoo! (www.yahoo.com), a leading global Internet media company, have teamed for an extensive online promotion. For the charity auction hosted by Yahoo! Auctions, FOX and Spelling have donated a trip for two to the 90210 set. The highest bidder at http://auctions.yahoo.com will win round-trip airfare and two nights hotel accommodations in the most recognized zip code in the country -- Beverly Hills, 90210 -- and a personal tour of the 90210 set. Among the other featured auction items are several 90210 scripts signed by cast members, as well as three paintings from Kelly Taylor's bedroom on the series set. These paintings, according to the fictional storyline, were gifts from Kelly's mother who commissioned Andy Warhol to create them. Bids will be accepted through Sept. 24. All proceeds from the Yahoo! Charity Auction will go to support RAINN's national hotline. Yahoo! also is RAINN's online media sponsor. In addition, Garth, who has become one of RAINN's leading celebrity supporters and spokespersons since playing the role of a rape survivor, will hold an online chat for RAINN, co-hosted by Yahoo! Chat (http://chat.yahoo.com) and Entertainment Weekly. Garth will chat from the 90210 set on Tuesday, Sept. 21, 1999 at 9:00 p.m. ET/ 6:00 p.m. PT. In the November issue of Marie Claire magazine, available on newsstands Oct. 5, Garth will be featured in an advertorial sponsored by Liz Claiborne in support of RAINN. Yahoo! Auctions is a leading interactive commerce marketplace connecting one of the Web's largest audiences of sellers and buyers.

She currently stars in the comedy series “What I Like About You,” and previously starred in the series “The $treet” with Bradley Cooper. Garth began starring in telefilms in 1993. Her first was “Danielle Steele’s Star,” from the best selling novel. The following summer she starred in and executive produced “Without Consent” for ABC, which tells the story of a girl who is committed by her parents to a private psychiatric hospital. The success of this project led to a development deal at ABC for Garth to develop and produce additional projects. The most recent of these, “A Loss of Innocence,” was a period piece about illicit love set in a Mormon community. When she is not working, Garth likes to spend time at her ranch with her family, including her four-year-old daughter Luca Bella and her many animals. She is very active in animal rights issues and works closely with environmental organizations. # # # BRADLEY COOPER (Morgan Murphy) -- Currently stars as Ben Turpin on the popular drama television series “Alias.” He was also recently featured in the motion picture “Changing Lanes,” starring Ben Affleck and Samuel L.

  • Eat. Sleep. Watch Dawson's Creek: Teenagers
    EAT. SLEEP. WATCH DAWSON’S CREEK: TEENAGERS’ PERCEPTIONS OF TEENAGE LIFE ON DAWSON’S CREEK by AMANDA STEWART HALL (Under the Direction of MARIA CAROLINA ACOSTA-ALZURU) ABSTRACT Drawing on cultural studies, especially Hall’s theory of encoding and decoding of texts (1973), this study examines how a sample of the audience of Dawson’s Creek, a Warner Brothers’ Television show, interpret and relate to the show and whether they incorporate these meanings in their lives. Ten in-depth interviews were conducted with females aged 15- to 21-years-old to discern the reality of representations on the show of teenage life and how these participants engage with the show. Findings suggest the show enables its viewers to identify with the portrayal of the teenage experience, especially when examining the show’s characters. Limitations of the study include the diversity of the sample used. Future research suggestions include an examination of how the show’s messages are encoded by the show’s creative team. In addition, future research should include a more in-depth examination into how Dawson’s Creek has changed the nature of teenage television.

    Jennie Garth Says Dating after Divorce is “a Weird Type of Torture” By April Littleton According to UsMagazine.com, Jennie Garth is still having some trouble getting back in the dating scene after her divorce from Peter Facinelli. “It’s super challenging,” Garth said during an interview on Bethenny. “It’s fun, and it’s awful all at the same time. It’s like a weird type of torture. But it can be fun.” The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum has three daughters. Facinelli and Garth were married for 11 years before splitting in June. How do you know when you’re ready to start dating after a divorce? Cupid’s Advice: Getting over a divorce can take some time, especially if kids are involved. How do you know when you’re really ready to give love another try? Cupid is here to help: 1. Your anger is gone: All of the resentment and other negative feelings you had for your ex are gone. When the two of you do see each other, it’s strictly about the kids (if you have any together). If you’re able to co-parent in a peaceful manner and you’re no longer hoping that the two of you can reconcile one day, you may be ready to move on. 2. You’re looking: You know you’re ready to get back out there, when you notice a cute guy staring right back at you. Noticing other men again is one of the first signs of moving on.

  • Accidentally in Love’
    ‘ACCIDENTALLY IN LOVE’ CAST BIOS JENNIE GARTH (Annie) – Jennie Garth skyrocketed to stardom with her role as Kelly Taylor on “Beverly Hills, 90210.” The show became a ratings juggernaut, lasting 10 seasons, and garnering Garth two Young Artist Award nominations. It remains one of the most successful television series ever produced. Garth reprised her role as Kelly in the CW’s new spin-off series, “90210,” but this time she is all grown up and working as the school guidance counselor at West Beverly High. Garth also competed on ABC’s hit show “Dancing with the Stars,” in 2007. Her newfound moves and loyal fans made her a crowd favorite and kept her in the competition through the semi-finals. Garth also recently starred opposite Andrea Bowen in Lifetime Network’s “Girl, Positive” which was the network’s highest-rated movie in 2007. In 2002, Garth made her comedy debut as the straight-laced sister of Amanda Bynes in the WB’s “What I Like About You.” The series concluded in 2006 after a four-season run. In addition, Garth made several appearances alongside Jennifer Connolly, Adam Goldberg and Tom Everett Scott on Fox’s “The $treet,” produced by Darren Starr. The talent Garth displayed on the iconic “Beverly Hills, 90210” opened up additional professional doors. Garth’s first starring role in a TV movie was “Danielle Steel’s Star,” which launched NBC’s fall 1993 schedule and garnered the highest ratings for a season premiere for NBC since 1989. Later that year Garth starred in and executive produced “Without Consent,” an entertaining and educational telepic for ABC.

When Beverly Hills, 90210 first premiered on this very network 19 years ago it was nothing short of a phenomenon. The original teen drama that started it all had something for everyone. Who can forget when Kelly and Brenda wore the same dress to prom? Or when Donna and David finally went all the way? What about when Steve and Andrea (it’s pronounced Onn-dri-ah you know) tried to exchange an egg? We even overlooked Dylan McKay for being the oldest student to ever enrol at West Beverley High Network 10 because he was such a dreamboat. A CBS Company In 2019, Network 10 will bring you BH90210; not quite a reboot but a show about a reboot. Shannen Doherty, Jason Priestley, Jennie Garth, Ian Ziering, Gabrielle Carteris, Brian Austin Green and Tori Spelling reunite to get a Beverly Hills, 90210 reboot up and running. But getting it going may make for an even more delicious soap than the reboot itself. What will happen when first loves, old romances, friends and frenemies come back together, as this iconic cast – who the whole world watched grow up together – attempts to continue from where they left off. The seven former teen idols play heightened versions of themselves in this brand- new serialised drama – with a healthy dose of irreverence – that is inspired by their real lives and relationships with each other.
