90210- Greek Tragedy

"Sometimes the darkest nights give rise to the brightest mornings"


I have mixed feelings about this season of 90210. One problem I really have with the show is that everything is so cliche. For example Naomi re-enacting a scene from the movie House Bunny. It was actually tragic to watch, and we all knew the outcome of that storyline. Now bad girl on campus has made friends with a bunch of "losers" that are going to help her take down frat girl Holly. Bore. Also, they have portrayed Naomi to be a rich girl socialite that manipulates people into doing whatever she wants in past seasons and all of a sudden she cant see through someone exactly like her, for the second time? Come on.
The whole pregnant theme is also so overused. I understand babies create unwanted drama especially for a show about teens/college students, but once again-cliche. All of a sudden Liam is going to step up to the plate for this girl and help her raise a baby that isn't even his, but he couldn't commit to a high school relationship with Annie? Maybe he's just doing it out of guilt since he feels like he is the reason behind the death of Jane's husband. Either way, I feel really bad for Annie. Girl put herself out there for a guy she has continuously fought for and it blows up in her face. Not cool! Hasn't Annie had enough messed up relationships?
Dixon has obviously been taking those ADHD pills.  Punching walls is the first sign of anger issues on the rise.  Also, does Ade remind anyone else of a cat? She just creeps her way into everyones life and makes promises and apologies she obviously cant keep. This girl just never learns, no wonder she cant keep any friends! And her snooping skills- extraordinary! Who would have thought to snoop around in another girls garbage. She just continues surprising me every week- stealing bipolar meds, trips to Africa, pregnancy advice; this girls got it all down. 
But enough of my complaining, Silver and Navids storyline has potential. Although not so realistic that Justin Biebers people are calling Shirazi studio's, the situation with his uncle and supporting the family and keeping Silver safe is very believable and actually makes me like Navid for a change.
Ivy is also a character that I was not fond of but I see the real emotion in because she is dealing with things that I assume more fans can relate to and find a connection with.
