In the past, actor/director Jason Priestly has been completely against bringing back his 90210 character Brandon back.  In a recent interview with tvguide.com he confesses if the story was “right” he would do it!

TVGuide.com: So come on, when is Brandon going to show up on 90210?
Priestley: If Jeff and Gabe were to come up with a decent storyline for Brandon, I’d consider it. I’m very happy to be directing though. It’s a challenge, and it’s a lot of fun for me to be on set.

The discouraging part of his interview is when he says he feels that the old characters, “muddy the waters.” This couldn’t be farther from the truth. I know so many fans that love just getting little updates and finding out what has happened to their favorite characters. Seeing Jennie Garth and Shannon Doherty join the show, no matter how short lived, is what brings the old fans back.

TVGuide.com: But the fans want you guys back!
Priestley: It’s a totally different environment and show. At some point in time, if you continue to bring back all the old characters, it just muddies the waters of the new show. The new show has to stand on its own.

Priestly also confesses that he is still in contact with the most popular 90210 alum, Luke Perry!

TVGuide.com: So will we ever see Dylan on the new show?
Priestley: I can honestly say that Luke has no interest in coming back.

Even though he sounds pretty confident, I will still keep hoping. Dylan is Kelly’s baby daddy after all.

In the interim, I guess we should be happy that Brenda might be sticking around for a few more episodes and that Donna will be coming back.  I just wish Brenda would cut this mature act and go back to being a bitch.

Ah the good ol’ days!
