    Thank Goodness

    This show should've ended when the left college. It was bad then and on life support by now. Not having Brenda return to take over the show was a mistake. Having her swoop in to be with Dylan would've been fitting.

    The problem with this show is it had too many characters and too many storyline. The majority of which were all similar, drugs or alcohol. Keeping the shower about the original cast and simple everyday life, instead of extreme villains and backstabbing, would have been the better option. By time the show ended, people were exhausted with the predictable drama they received each week.

    • Quotes

      Kelly Taylor: [Her toast] Try as he might, David was not Mr. Popularity in high school. I on the other hand defined cool.

      Dylan McKay: [Muttering] Yeah!

      Kelly Taylor: As you can imagine I was how do I say this; appalled, at the thought of him becoming my step brother but shock of shocks he turned out to be great. Over the years he has been caring and thoughtful and tonight he has given me something that I will forever be grateful for. He has managed to turn my best friend into my sister.
