MELR0210 #97 90210's "Little Fish" & Melrose Place's "Boxing Sydney" (Patreon)

It's the May edition of our sexy, sunny, So-Cal-set TV-in-the-'90s recap show, MELR0210!

First up on Beverly Hills, 90210, Brenda returns home in disgrace in "Little Fish"! Originally airing September 22, 1993, this episode has, yes, Brenda returning to Beverly Hills after dropping out of school in Minnesota, Steve Sanders being mistaken for a genius after cheating on an aptitude test, Dylan and Brenda fishing off a pier, Andrea writing a hit piece on the Peach Pit for the college newspaper, Brandon possibly joining the K.E.G. frat, and David and Donna auditioning for the radio station!

Then, across the 10 over at Melrose Place, it's an episode with an excellent ending, "Boxing Sydney"! Premiering on February 6, 1995, this episode has Amanda stupidly confiding in Billy about her diagnosis and he tells Alison immediately, Kimberly and Matt going tête-à-tête at the hospital over her psychological evaluation and the hate crime that succeeded it, Alison saying Amanda as a "Saddam Hussein"-style of management, and Sydney going on a "retreat" with Martin's cult where things get... weird.
