Back in 2020, I compiled a guide outlining where you could watch the teen dramas today. And then I never updated it... until now.
While we’re still very much in the thick of the streaming era, exactly which platforms carry “Beverly Hills, 90210,” “Dawson’s Creek,” “The O.C.,” “One Tree Hill,” “Gossip Girl,” and “90210” has changed quite a bit over the last few years.
No doubt many of you already know where to get your fix, but in case you don’t, check out the updated post below.
Unrelated but also of note: Substack has launched direct messaging, allowing you to privately contact me or chat with other subscribers. Feel free to get in touch any time with feedback, questions, suggestions, etc. I’d love to hear from you!

Jason Priestley (Brandon, Beverly Hills, 90210) and “Beverly Hills, 90210” executive producers Charles Rosin and Larry Mollin paid tribute to fellow executive producer E. Duke Vincent on last week’s “Beverly Hills 90210 Show” after his death was announced. (YouTube)
They were joined by costumer designer Dianne Kennedy and set designer Drew Kinney.
I’m surprised Tori Spelling (Donna, Beverly Hills, 90210) hasn’t posted a tribute given he was her dad’s producing partner.
The first excerpts from and reviews of A Good Bad Boy: Luke Perry and How a Generation Grew Up were released in advance of the book’s publication today.

Spelling herself has already told this story many times, including in her own book.
“Luke Perry and the Untold History of Buffy the Vampire Slayer” (Vanity Fair)
“Five years after Luke Perry’s death, a new look at the Gen X bad boy” (The Washington Post)
Notable: “No one in Perry’s immediate family would consent to be interviewed for the book, nor would any of his ‘90210’ co-stars” — although the aforementioned Rosin and Mollin are.
Also, for the umpteenth time, Perry starred on “Beverly Hills, 90210,” not “90210.” (TDW)
Yesterday, of course, marked a stunning five years since Perry’s passing.
