Shannen Doherty's Death: Continuing Coverage

The death of Shannen Doherty on July 13 at age 53 continues to capture the world’s attention.

Frankly, I’ve been having trouble keeping up with all the coverage — and if I’m having trouble (what, with my Google Alerts and all), I imagine you are too.

To make all the newsy articles, reflective essays, analyses, and photo galleries that have come out and still are coming out easily accessible, I’m compiling everything in this post and will update it periodically.

Below, you’ll first find everything I shared in the July 16 edition of “Teen Drama Links.” Underneath that, I’m sectioning off each new batch of links with the date I’ve updated this post.

Please note, this will not be an exhaustive compilation. Though this list is quite lengthy already and going to grow, it is not literally every little thing that has been published about Doherty. Like “Teen Drama Links,” this is a curated roundup of notable articles, particularly those related to “Beverly Hills, 90210” and the teen drama genre.

That said, if there’s something missing that you think fellow fans would like to read, feel free to drop it in the comments below.
