Bad Career Moves

Filed under: TV News > 90210

wenn1767101.jpg

What an idiot.

Luke Perry had the chance to perform on the remake of 90210 but he chose not to.

And why?

He rather do cameos on shittier shows!

Turns out the former Dylan McKay is currently in New York filming an episode of Law & Order: SVU.

He will make his appearance on the show's season premier on September 23rd.

According to insiders, Perry will play a parent accused of abusing his foster child.

What an idiot.

It's 90210 all the way!

    Are you kidding — it's probably a good career move that he not be involved with something that will so clearly fail. Move on. It won't be the same, it can't be the same….they're going to make it just another OC or Hills with vapid people, no plots, blah blah blah. You seem to be the only person excited about the remake.

    Law & Order: SVU is not a shitty show!

    I agree that he should probably suck it up and do 90210 v.2 but c'mon.

    He's trying get out of the 90210 rutt. The bad career moves are the ones resigning for the show.

    Or maybe he decided, at 42 years old, his career would be better served moving ahead instead of stepping back into a remake of a shitty 1990's teenybopper show. Perhaps his career is currently not in the toilet so the only thing offered to him is to go back to show that bit the dust 10 years ago!

    shittier show?? SVU is an amazing show!! and why bother adding new castmembers to 90210 if all the old fogies are coming back?? BORING

    He made the right decison! Law and Order will show forever on Bravo. 90210 will never make it to season 2.

  24. Julie says – reply to this

    Uh, shittier? You're right. I'd say 90210 was amazing too if I got paid. Law and Order is a great show. I highly doubt you've ever watched it though. Too many technical terms for your brain.

  25. Sniz says – reply to this

    I'm sure the new 90210 is going to be a big steaming pile of crap; Law & Order is a good move, in my opinion.

    i think that is actually a MUCH BETTER career move than returning to 90210. I think its quite pathetic and really doesnt say much about their talent that they have to return to the same shitty show they started at. I would be embarrassed. Tori Spelling and Shannen Doherty have no choice as they are just reality show has beens…

    Perez you're an idiot…L & O SVU is a real TV show where REAL actors work.

  32. Oh pl says – reply to this
    32

    I think he made the right move choosing SVU then 90210 even if it's just a cameo. BH 90210 is a show that's probably going to deal with the same crap stories over and over again and to him its time to move on and leave the teenage based shows in the past. I wouldn't be surprise one bit if the show bombs and who do you thinks going to have to last laugh? I say smart move on his part.

    Man he is hot as a fucking firecracker! The years have been VERY kind to him. Come to daddy!!!!

  34. Mandi says – reply to this
    34

    Yes..

    because a long running, popular crime show that has emmy award winning actors in it (such as SVU) is a shittier choice than a new version of a show from the 90's that hasn't proved anything besides the fact that it has the same zip code and a few actors that haven't been popular since that show ended.

    I'm a faithful reader, Perez..but learn to take a step back, maybe. Your bias is showing..

    SVU doesn't suck. I luv that show!

    How is an Emmy winning show shittier than a show that probably won't last 2 seasons?

    Better Question: Why do I try to reasons on Perez Hilton?

  37. Scoot says – reply to this
    37

    Perez/Mario, as usual — you're an ass. Do you honestly think that this new 90210 will be a success? Law and Order is a much more prestigious vehicle for an actor — much more so than re-living the past by appearing as a hack actor on a rip-off of your old TV show. :90210 all the way?" What fucking planet are you living on? Are the Oreos warping your brain? LOLOL

    What do you know about good shows? SVU is one of the best shows out there. Just because it doesn't glamorize people and puts them in a realistic light doesn't mean it's shitty.

    Oh, Porkez, you will do just about ANYTHING to get people riled up on this site. You say so many STOOPID things, it's hard not to post a comment, which is exactly what you want. I am so done with this lame excuse of a website but before I go, Luke Perry doesn't need to waste his time, taking on a token role for a pathetic re-make of a horrible show. Good on ya', Luke.

  41. Bella says – reply to this

    this new 90210 is going to be horrible. Im sorry but that show was a classic and you cant replace a classic especially not today. The entertainment industry is bombing in all genres, music, movies, tv shows. Its the same as watching the economy fall to pieces. This show will be horrible and won't even compare to the original show! I think the actors from the orignal show who didn't get involved were smart. The show had a 10 year run and it was great why ruin that?

  42. 42

    he needs some botox… we want hot frozen faced Dylan~!

    you fat idiot! SVU is a great critically acclaimed show that is more meaningful that some random teeniebopper show. some people like to move on to more mature content. thank god his career choices are better than your eating ones!

  45. Oh pl says – reply to this
    45

    Oh and might I add..SVU is NOT!!! a shitty show. Maybe you should watch it first Perez before you judge the show. I know no one that doesnt' think that show isn't amazing. Its a step up for Luke to get other offers for shows since he's been hiding out lately….

  46. Sarah says – reply to this
    46

    Duh Perez! There is always a good chance to get an Emmy nomination off of a Law & Order episode… not some stupid FLUFF TV program! When that 90210 remake ends after a few episodes, Perry will be happy he didn't join. :-)

  47. Jessa says – reply to this

    Perez…. you just crossed a line… SVU is an awesome show… do not fuck with Benson & Stabler…

    Amen to Bella….

  49. 49

    Uhhhhhh Law and Order: SVU is an excellent, Emmy-winning show with extremely high ratings that actors KILL to be on. His decision is actually a smart career move as I predict this new 90210 will be canceled after a season or two anyway.

  50. Scoot says – reply to this
    50

    OK, Chunk-o-Lite take a step back from your Oreos and try and think outside of your refrigerator-sized box. Law & Order SVU is a well-respected show with multiple Emmys — not just for the regular cast, but for many many guest stars. It's far more prestigious than re-appearing on a remake of an old, tired show from the 90s. Quite honestly, The CW must have so little faith in this new version 90210, beause they are already resorting to desperate stunts — getting the original cast to appear in cameos in order to gather publicity. Jeez — where's your common sense??

    I'd have left a nicer-toned message, but you are so negative and vile with everything you post here, you don't deserve it. You turn my stomach in so many ways.

    90210 better than SVU!!!? Maybe in the early 90's. And even then, only if you were a tween having her first period. Man, your taste in tv fuckin sucks.

    57

    Umm playing a father who abuses his foster child actually sounds like a challange, playing some vapid one-dimensional character on a remake that's going to fail, not so much. PEREZ you are an embarrassment to gay and latin people, not only are you UGLY as fuck but you have the taste of a mentally challenged 11 year old girl, GROW UP and get some fucking taste man! NOBODY is excited for this cheap ass remake but you, it's a good move from Luke's part, this shit is going to flop.

  58. kendr says – reply to this
    58

    mmm SVU in one of NBC's top rated shows…and he gets to work with a emmy winner who's been nominated the past 5 years in a row…sounds like a smart career move to me.

    nobody but you cares that 90210 is comming back.

  59. JACS says – reply to this
    59

    ya why would he wanna work for a reputable TV show that has won awards and who actors are actually talented. nevermind the fact that it has been on the air for years!!! a lot longer the the remake of nine O will last.

  60. Paula says – reply to this

    I think he's an artist and a real actor. He's done good roles since he was gone that are good characters. He already is living of the residual income from the re-runs of the old show and he has already done the fame game and you can't relive your past. I'm sure he doesn't want to be known for being Dilan all his life. We can't be selfish. He would be going backwards. Shannon Dorhety has done a terrible reality scare show since 90210 so she needs the work and the ego boost. Dilan is dead. Let's keep it that way.

    MAYBE he invested his money well from 90210 and doesn't NEED to work and can pick & choose what he wants to do. Just a thought…..

    Law n order SVU a shitty Show???

    Ah yes, Thats why Shows like GOSSIP girl, That you raved about are in the shitter, and Law And Order SVU has been on forever

    I give 90210 Remake A couple seasons TOPS, if even that.

  63. j says – reply to this
    63

    once again, you post shit that is ridiculous. SVU has been a top rated show for NBC for years. Why is he an idiot for not wanting to take a step backwards? Why is he an idiot for not wanting to go back to being type cast? He is a very smart actor to take on a challenging role on a top rated show, as opposed to an actor who's career is not going anywhere and has to sign on to a crappy remake of a show that was good in the 90's. The new version looks like it is shaping up to be a pile of crap.

    i think that was a smart choice on his part… that way the dylan we all loved will remain the same young cute bad boy we all loved… if he would have came back he could have ruined that image…

    On SVU he'd be among actors such as Mariska Hargitay… on 90210 he's be with Shannon Doherty… hmm difficult decision…

    Get a life Perez!

    Many Beverly Hils 90210 fans have grown up and moved on. And we respect that were actors on that show have move on too and don't want to be typecast. But you want everyone to go back to the show, just for your entertainment.

    The next generation doesn't care, who is on that show and they are the ones that the show is primarily aimed at. Not 30 year olds like you. So move on and grow up. It's just down right creepy that you are so obsessed with teenage culture.

    I think it's a smart move. 90210 has run its course and marrying yourself to your past success makes him seem like a desperate actor trying to get work. It's better that he move onto better roles like the one he landed on Law & Order: SVU.
