Feisty (Bren/Shay) #24: Doing 90210 without her is like doing Hamlet without Hamlet.
credit to :Inside of Love credit to: playgroundDiaries credit to: Caris_leogirl On paper 90210 was an ensemble show; in practice, not so much. Never mind the stridently self-serious if dreamy Brandon, the button-nosed little-rich-girl-next-door Kelly, and the rehabbed rebel Dylan, with his amazing washboard Forehead of Angst. Forget spear carriers Donna, Steve, and David. And that uptight editor chick with the glasses who was, like, 46 in real life? Banish her from your mind. Brenda was the heart and soul of 90210. Brenda was the one we tuned in for, the one we couldn't quite figure out, the one who somehow always just demanded attention. Shark-jump plot machinations aside, many of the best episodes were carried along on the blustery jet stream of her moods, which tended to start out chirpy and sarcastic before building to a fit of pique and climaxing in a punishing emotional ****storm, which then inevitably gave way at the last possible moment—and here was the key point—to warm Brenda sunshine and smiles and hugs all around. Sure, the show ran six seasons after she was packed off to study in London, but the party, for all intents and purposes, was over 1.) angelface211 2.) PiCkLeS4dAwSoN 3.)

ChanB 75.) ~Phoenix~ 76.) dmcool1 It’s true that a 90210 reprise without Brenda was unthinkable for longtime enthusiasts. “If you have a show called 90210 and you’re bringing characters back, you can’t not bring Shannen Doherty back,” says Kevin Smith, a noted Dohertyolgist since their Mallrats days. “That’s like putting on Hamlet and leaving out Hamlet.” [ 1. Because she is the original 90210 lead, female character, and actress. 2. Because she's the original brunette. 3. Because she's the original bad girl. 4. Because they're feisty. 5.

Because the show was never the same after she left. 17. Because Shannen rocked Prue on Charmed as well as she rocked Brenda. 18. Because despite her bad reputation, bad mistakes, and bad rumors; we love her. 19. Because we love her friendship with Holly Marie Combs and Sarah Michelle Gellar. 20. Because Brenda was humble enough to accept her mistakes, but brave enough to stand up for herself. 21. Because she was not H as hypocrite, but H as honest. 22. Because Shannen gives the best of her strong personality to her characters, and makes them unforgettable. 23. Because she's smart and sweet and sassy! 24. Because Donna said it: Brenda can make the best of every situation. 25. Because she's like a cat, always lands on her feet. Ask Dylan 26. Because even Jim agrees that in the end, she always does right thing. 27. Because Kelly said she was less of a bitch since Brenda had come. 28.

Because she helped abused Sue Scanlon. 23. Because she was great senior buddy. 24. Because Erica wanted her to be her big sister, and her brother's girlfriend. 25. Because Brenda loves theater, and theater loves her. 26. Because reviews for her Maggie in "Cat on the Hot Tin Roof" said that Brenda showed maturity beyond her years. 27. Because she won scholarship for RADA! 28. Because that way, she was the first character who won financial and complete independence from her parents. 29. Because she's our Heather Duke! 30. Because Kevin Smith took her for his movie. 31. Because she worked with Ben Afleck, Jason Lee, London brothers, Claire Forlani, Helen Hunt, Sarah Jessica Parker, Winona Ryder, Christian Slater... not to mention Kevin Smith! 32. Because she's funny, able to joke about her bad rep and use it as great marketing strategy. 33. Because she's among Top 100 tv icons! 34. Because she's #5 on list of Top 100 teen stars! 35. Because she's a queen of confrontation! 36. Because Aron Spelling said, she won't lie to you. 37. Because she's a queen of unconventional beauty... and behavior. 38. Because maybe she was a drama queen, but a queen anyway 39. Because we love her either as an angel or as a witch. 40. Because Shannen has the best pre- and post 90210 carreer. 41. Because when she leaves the show, ratings fall down! 42. Because Brenda's departure is voted as moment when 90210 jumped the shark. 43. Becuse she starred in Slaughter's video "Real Love". 44.

Because she turned her scars into garments. credit to: charmingbrenda "The best young actress I've seen in a long time, she is a very honest person who wears her emotion on her sleeve, if you'll ask her direct question, she'll give you direct answer"-Aaron Spelling "All of the stories about Shannen are so blown out of proportion" he says "she's a very intelligent young woman who isn't afraid to speak her mind. I really enjoy working with her. We have a good relationship on and off screen"-Jason Priestley "There's one thing I have to say about Shannen," Green says thoughtfully. "Everybody calls her a b*tch, but from day one of 90210 it's always been about the work for her. If she doesn't think something's good, she's gonna insist that it's changed and made better. Not because she's this control freak, but... How bad is it that your lead actress wants the show to be better? I'm not saying she's always used the best tactics, but if people would step outside their egos and try to understand that she's aggressive because she's passionate, it would be better. But they want to jump to a quick conclusion and just say she's 'difficult'."- Brian Austin Green "I miss working with SHANNEN DOHERTY from time to time. You know, Shannen and I mixed it up pretty good -- both on-camera and off. She was always very lively. It was always very real with us. I thought that early on we did some really strong work on the show"- Luke Perry "Out of all my friends Shannen is the really honest one"- Tori Spelling[ Quote:

Thanks for the new thread!
I don't think you need to capitalize "Her" though. Unless that's how it is in the quote... |

Yeah, just take out the quotation marks (""). Add Bren/Shay or whatever fits just so people will be able to identify the thread. And you can make the "Her" lowercase--"her."
Sorry I'm so bossy. |

Yeah, quotation marks are not needed then I guess the Kevin Smith name should be out too since we're just rephrasing what he said. And then there would be space for Brenda/Shannen
ETA: Oh, you're already doing it! Sorry, M __________________

It's excellent!
Could you just fix "Feisty"? It's misspelled. And add a period (.) at the end? |

I thought it was fine before. But this version fits more in.
But should we call her Shay in the title? Does everyone know that thats her nickname. __________________
