‘90210’: the casts then and now

Shannen Doherty

Shannen Doherty spent the early ‘90s playing Brenda Walsh on “90210,” but left the show for good in 1994. Rumors alleged that Doherty had been difficult on set.

Thus, it was something of a shock when Doherty returned to her old Beverly Hills stomping grounds for 2008’s “90210” remake. On the new “90210,” Brenda returns to West Beverly Hills High School to direct the high school play.  (WireImage. com; Stefano Paltera / For The Times)
