LOS ANGELES (April 16) - Jennie Garth has abruptly departed from a CBS comedy pilot, raising speculation that she will return to the "Beverly Hills, 90210" fold in a spinoff being developed at the CW network.

Garth had been cast in CBS' "My Best Friend's Girl," which revolves around two best friends whose relationship becomes complicated when one (Tim Peper) starts dating the ex-wife of the other (Josh Cooke).

Garth was to play the ex-wife. She left after the table read Monday, in what was described as a mutual decision between her and the producers. Garth has been coping with the death of her father, who passed away after she was cast in the project. Canadian actress Kristin Booth is replacing her.

Baboon, just a FYI , Jake from Melrose Place started on 90210, He was the handyman at the Taylor's and dated Kelly for awhile until he realized the age factor was a huge issue.

I never saw even one episode of 90120. And I don't feel my life is any poorer for not watching it LOL. But it was a very popular show and many people enjoyed it and will be glad to have it back.

9021D'OH! WHy do as spinoff after all these years? WHy? Melrose Place was a supposed spinoff, but there were no connected characters.

I'll watch it, I was a big fan of 90210. Melrose Place was good too, but 90210 was waay better.

I stand corrected, 90210 was not with Heather and Alyssa. Didn't watch much of 90210, Melrose Place was the better one.
