Question
Hi Crystal. I was wondering if you could tell me what Brenda is watching on TV when Dylan comes over in the episode 'Isn't It Romantic?' At the beginning she's telling Brandon she had to go to 3 video stores to find 'Dirty Dancing' and it sounds like that's Brenda's fave movie. I have read on the internet and 90210 sites that she is watching 'Dirty Dancing' when Dylan comes by. Hope this is no trouble, your help is appreciated.

Answer
Hello Kaelyn,

I don't know if "Dirty Dancing" is Brenda's favorite movie, but it is the one she rents for when she has babysitting duty and Brandon says that she should have it memorized by that time, so it's definitely one of her favorites.

Brenda appears to be watching "Dirty Dancing" when Dylan comes over to apologize. I say "appears" because there is no shot of the TV to show that it's indeed "Dirty Dancing". However, you do hear the song "She's Like The Wind" by Patrick Swayze (song from the movie) until Brenda picks up the TV remote and hits a button. (This song is replaced in the 90210 Season 1 DVD release.)

Hope this answers your question.

Take care,
Crystal

Expertise

I have seen all 10 seasons of 90210 and have every episode on tape to locate answers. My expertise is on the first 6 seasons and the characters Brenda and Dylan, but I will attempt to answer any question pertaining to the show. Please no scene/dialogue questions because they are very time-consuming and frustrating. However, I will be happy to clarify misunderstood dialogue due to whispering and such if I'm able to. I will attempt to answer any song question for the original airdates and syndication. NO DVD SONG QUESTIONS PLEASE. Please see my "Life Experience" in my profile for song question updates, it may pertain to your question.

Experience

I have every single episode on tape to find the answers. I watched and taped the show religiously. (All requests for copies of my videotapes/episodes will be declined.)
Update: The song used in "Crunch Time" during David's meth addiction is "Living In A Fantasy" by The Rainbow Band. Many thanks to the fellow 90210 Fan that contacted me with the info when they tracked it down. Also, the song used in "One Wedding and a Funeral" that Dylan & Toni dance to is "Nobody Knows Me" by Lyle Lovett. Same song is used during the scene where Dylan is crying while holding the wedding dress and then kitten. David & Donna's wedding song is "Spend My Life With You" by Eric Benet & Tamia. Same song was Steve & Janet's wedding song.

Education/Credentials
