Kelly Taylor Can't Quit West Bev.
It's official; Jennie Garth is heading back to "90210", according to Us. Rumors have been heating up since Jennie pulled out of a CBS pilot and CW reps confirmed that the former brat is returning to West Beverly High as the school guidance counselor. Kelly Taylor certainly has enough life experience and drama to be successful in that job.
Allegedly, none of Jennie's former "90210" cast members have been asked back to the show yet. Jason Priestley told momlogic.com that no one has contacted him about making a comeback to Beverly Hills, but said he would be open to reprising his role. Jason only had praise for the teen drama that allowed him to do a lot of different jobs and said he would return to the show "if it's the right thing, I'm certainly open to it. I loved working on that show. I loved everything I did on that show."
