With tonight’s 90210 being called “Catch Me If You Cannon”, there sure wasn’t a lot of catching Mr. Cannon.
Good Intentions, Bad Plan
While Silver thought that luring Mr. Cannon into a trap was a great idea, I saw that train wreck from a mile away. I just didn’t expect Cannon to be up on their scheme, which was a well placed twist. Then to add insult to injury, Cannon pulled Silver’s bipolar card to use in his defense. If that wasn’t a slap to the girls’ system, then I will pay you. The only thing I was upset about was Naomi stepping up and helping Silver out, but in the end I knew that would’ve only made matters worse.
Jack/Jacques
Jen and Ryan’s baby was born tonight! While I have no clue how they could’ve gotten the sex wrong, or why they would even make that a huge deal, the birth gave us another peek at soft Jen, which we haven’t seen in a long time. I am betting that Ryan and Jack/Jacques will be the much needed humbling in Jen’s life.
Speaking of which, I wonder if Jen knows that she and Annie share a blood brother out there somewhere?
Mother Knows Best
Wow, I wasn’t expecting to see Annie’s egg donor story line to fizzle out so quickly, or rather have the parentals involved. Money is tight in the Wilson household and both Annie and Debbie are going the extra mile to bring in dough. In Debbie’s case, that means working for the hellspawn that is Jen Clark. I was surprised to learn that Debbie never went to college though, which blows. I hope that won’t mean seeing Debbie taking classes with the teens next year at California University… Meanwhile, If Annie has bagged out of the donor program, wonder how will her boss take it? I think the story line is over in some instances, but is about to still kick into gear soon.
Dropped Opportunity
I knew 90210 wasn’t going to get Degrassi on us with Dixon’s story line, which also fizzled into the wind. I’m not saying that I was hoping Dixon had HIV. I seriously didn’t, but the opportunities that could’ve been taken with such a story line screamed dramatic potential. Now that Dixon is in the clear, he has to deal with the fact that Ivy has went and jumped into bed with Oscar. So should we say goodbye to Divy? I think so. At least for now.
Brother’s Keeper
Just when I thought Liam was going to officially become the next generation’s Dylan McKay by having his own hotel suite, he went ahead and trashed the place. I don’t know what the hell Charlie really did to cause Liam to treat him like crap, but I am 1) interested to know what that could’ve been and 2) hope that when the two brothers finally reconcile, we can see more of Charlie. He’s a pretty cool cat and I dig his addition to the cast. If Charlie can’t get a full time gig, then let’s pray that he stays around ala Jen and not fade into the ether like the mysterious Wilson/Clark son that we truly never got to see.
Teddy’s Tilting Over The Fence
By it being National Coming Out Day, I wonder how many people waited with abated breath for Teddy to have a Jessie Spano like tantrum by breaking down and admiting that he’s gay. While we didn’t get that type of performance or revelation, Teddy spent time with his experimental partner Ian in detention and still upheld his “there’s nothing wrong with me” stance. Although the two got a little close, Teddy ran quickly to the most willing girl to learn that he doesn’t have his mojo with them anymore. Womp womp. Hope you got Ian on speed dial, buddy.
Will Teddy realize that he’s a guy’s guy now next week? Will Annie face the wrath of her boss? How good will Ryan and Jen be at parenting when they are from two different worlds? And most importantly, when will Team Naomi take down Cannon?!
Hopefully we will find out after this two week hiatus. See you then!
