We’ve discovered reruns of 90210 and OC on some channel called Soapnet. We’re flipping through the channels one day not too long ago, and there’s absolutely rubbish on HBO, Cinemax, and Starz (we decided not to spring for Showtime; yes, we miss ‘Weeds’) and out of nowhere we see an old episode of 90210. It was during the college years, when Tiffani Amber Thiessen joined the cast. Undoubtedly, she’s one of the 10 hottest prime-time TV characters of all-time. Anyway, we’re completely sucked back into 90210, and also discovered this channel shows the OC. Marissa lives! This photo is Posh Spice throwing out the first pitch at a Dodgers game.
