MELR0210 #52 - 90210's "A Walsh Family Christmas" & Melrose Place's "Of Bikes and Men" (Patreon)

It's another super-sized edition of our flashback trip to sexy, sunny, 1990s Los Angeles on MELR0210!

First up on Beverly Hills, 90210, it's the extra-long, out-of-season episode, "A Walsh Family Christmas"! Originally airing back on December 19, 1991, this episode has Brandon visiting/taunting Emily Valentine in the psychiatric hospital, Steve Sanders finding out his biological mother was iced in a car wreck, Dylan checking in on his dad in prison, Cindy becoming obsessed with pushing her holiday traditions on others, and, inexplicably appearing on a show without magical elements whatsoever, the real Santa Claus! 

Then over on Melrose Place, things are heating up in the stupidly-titled, "Of Bikes and Men"! First hitting the airwaves back on October 6, 1993, this episode has Jake realizing he burned down his own bike show due to being horny, Michael continuing to be a huge liar by trying to blame Jane for cheating on him, Matt going on an awkward dinner date with a co-worker, and Billy taking Alison to a swank resort for the weekend and telling her only after they get there that she has to stay hidden the whole time! Real cool guy you got there, Alison! HUH!  

MELR0210 is a WHM podcast where the guys blissfully stroll through the Beverly Hills, 90210 and Melrose Place timelines. The TV episodes covered will run in broadcast order, but we may skip duller 'sodes in order to keep the focus on the nitty, the gritty, and the downright bizarre. Thanks so much for continuing to support the WHM Patreon!
