MELR0210 #68 - 90210's "Castles in the Sand" & Melrose Place's "Swept Away" (Patreon)

Hey, look! It's our raucous flashback to sexy, sunny, 1990's Los Angeles on MELR0210! 

First up on Beverly Hills, 90210, the girls are back from Paris and Brenda is annoying as ever on "Castles in the Sand," which first aired back on August 19, 1992. This episode has Dylan and Kelly disagreeing about putting the kibosh on their summer flirtation, Steve Sanders tricking David Silver into thinking he can manage a musician, Andrea briefly losing a child at the beach, and Brandon, for some reason, not immediately dumping Brooke once she starts spitting insanely racist garbage!

Then cross-town on Melrose Place, things are heating up on "Swept Away"! Premiering back on February 16, 1994, this ep has things heating up between Sydney and Michael as she starts to slowly threaten him (and Matt!) over the drunk driving accident, while Billy and Alison break up in New York only to have Billy return to Los Angeles and awkwardly propose to her in public, and Jo does everything she can to escape from low-level drug kingpin, Reed!

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. Thanks so much for continuing to support the WHM Patreon! You're way cooler than Dylan McKay!
