The CW television network says it has ordered a full season of “90210,” its new “Beverly Hills, 90210″ spinoff.
“We’re very excited about the chance to watch this ensemble of newcomers and familiar faces coalesce and grow together as we move forward,” Dawn Ostroff, president of entertainment at The CW, said in a statement issued to Usmagazine.com Monday.
The Hollywood Reporter said 4.9 million people tuned in for the new show’s two-hour premiere, making it the highest-rated scripted series premiere in the network’s history.
