Ok, I don’t want to be negative about this show…or a traitor to my generation… I love Bev Hills 90210! I was a sophmore in high school when they were, at the shows start, and we were the same age and we grew up together. I watched (and taped) every episode for the whole 10 years… but those VHS tapes wear out, so imagine my joy when the DVD set came out… or not…
As I said, I have taped every episode, and I watch it now on Soapnet… and as you know like watching your favorite movie over and over, you can “talk along with the movie”… well I am that way with this show. I now know (but didn’t until after having bought the first 2 seasons) that the box says in fine print on the back of the box that “MUSIC HAS BEEN CHANGED FOR THIS HOME ENTERTAINMENT VERSION. SOME EPISODES MAY BE EDITED FROM THEIR ORIGINAL NETWORK VERSIONS.”, but come on!!! I noticed a wierd edit in another season episode and a spot here and there, not to mention in season one when all the girls have a slumber party and are signing along to “Mony Mony” but now the music is different… but The Senior Prom episode was seriously butchered! There were major parts gone… not to mention Cathy Dennis sang 2 songs at the prom and they cut the whole second song out, along with shots of her and most of the actors lines that were said during that song. I am very disappointed in this. The prom episode was a great one, not to mention a pivital part of the season. Part of the greatness of 90210 was the fact that they used new, up to date music for every episode.
Come on FOX… how cheap are you? We are all paying $40 or more for a set that probably costs $5 to make… You couldn’t shell out some cash to keep this amazingly cool show intact in it’s original condition??? And what are you going to do in future seasons??? There were tons of episodes later on in the Peach Pit After Dark where a famous music group plays there… are those hour long episodes going to be edited down to a half hour show?
So, before you start sending me hate email, let me say this:
My review comes to this = Yes, I love the show and Yes, I have and probably will buy every season on DVD. But Yes, I am disappointed in the editing. So to all of you die hard fans like me… be aware of this before you buy and watch it, so you aren’t completly disappointed like I was when I first bought and watched them. Maybe they will get this figured out and stop their “editing” or “ruining” our favorite show!!!

This is my favorite season of the whole series. And I am so happy to finally have it on DVD. But I can’t stand that they changed the music! They removed “Losing my Religion,” and cuts parts of the scene with Brenda. For us die hard 90210 fans, it’s so obvious when things are cut, and a major disappointment.

Beverly Hills, 90210 – The Complete Third Season is the best and most fun of the 10 seasons of this groundbreaking show. I love the love triangle between Dylan, Brenda, and Kelly. Every character also comes into their own including David and Donna. You can really feel the magic and excitement in season 3. My favorite episode is when Kelly’s addiction to diet pills goes to far and she passes out at The Peach Pit on the eve of her 18th birthday. I also love the episode where the gang spend senior ditch day at Magic Mountain. If you were to get just one season of this show, season 3 is the one to get, it is so good I could watch each episode 10 billion times and never get sick of it. So don’t wait reserve your copy today, it’s a great Christmas gift.

Reading other reviews and people’s comments, I personaly don’t care what they have to say. If you are a FAN of 90210 then you’ll enjoy every single Episode and Season. What I love in each Season is that they have grown, changed, their problems are more problems of young adults, and I don’t think there is worse season, cause ALL ARE AWESOME. I can’t wait till I collect all 10 Seasons. Whatever Production releases them, can you please release them more frequently, the waiting period is killing not only me but I think other FANS too. Its a little bit too long!!!

Yes, this is the season when Brenda and Kelly duke it out for Dylan and it is something to watch!! Dylan and Kelly’s secret relationship begins when Brenda and Donna go to Paris for the summer. After sometime and many episodes later Brenda finally discovers who the other woman was in Dylan’s life that summer. It gets very interesting before Dylan finally chooses. The season finale is “The Graduation.” It is something to watch itself. This season (3) and seasons 4 and 5 are my favorites.
