Question
Q: Was wondering for years what is the artists name and song title of the song in the episode where Dylan breaks into his beach house at the Beverly Hills Beach Club and is curled up on the couch and dreams about when him and his father were in the ocean? Not sure of the episoide but it is during the summer episodes and I think it is when Dylan and Brenda have already broken up and he has cracked ribs. Brandon later finds Dylan in the morning? Thanks for your help

Answer
Hi Robyn,

The episode you're thinking of is "Summer Storm", from Season 2, and the song that plays while Dylan cries in the Beverly Hills Beach Club cabana (in the original broadcast) is "You Are The Everything" by R.E.M.  

Thanks for the question!

All the best,

Mel

Can Dylan solve quadratic equations? What makes up a "mega-burger"? If an answer exists, I probably know it. Whether your question is general, begging the context of all 10 seasons, or completely inane, feel free to drop me a line either way. I will provide episode reference numbers for each response and plan to have some fun with this. Trivia quizzes often need correction, and publications will get their plotlines/characters/relationships mixed up too. I accept dialogue/scene requests, but please limit your inquiry to 1-2 per question. I only know music from the original broadcasts/reruns, not the DVDs. Been a fan since 1990 and didn't miss a beat.

Experience

Well, I began watching "Beverly Hills, 90210" at the tender age of 9 and a half, during its original run. By 11, I was a huge fan; 13, obsessed; 14, growing bitter. I don't like S6 - S10 as much as Seasons 1 - 5. But, technically, I still watch all of them in some way. Do this for 20 years and you'll remember the darndest things.

Education/Credentials
I'd like to say I've earned a "degree" on the life and times of the original eight, with specific concentration on Seasons 1 thru 5, any Jack McKay drama, Dylan/Kelly together or apart, and the guest stars of 1992-1994. Season 4, I think, was the best and strikingly different from any other. My only weakness might be later-season 'stand-in' characters like Matt and Noah, and the ever-changing ownerships of The AfterDark.
