Question
Hello Carmen!
Mi name is Maria and I'm from Spain. I would like to know if there is any way to download or to buy on the Net one of my favourite chapters from the tv show. Is the one where Kelly and Brandon give their first kiss when they're visiting Washington. Please, could you help me to find it?
Thanks in advanced!

Answer
Hi Maria,
For reasons I don't fully understand (something about pubishing rights or business disputes), the seasons of 90210 are not available to purchase legally on DVD. . .yet. On amazon.com, you can purchase the pilot and the high school graduation episode on DVD, but that's it. I don't know of any way to download episodes off the net, but perhaps you could do an internet search for downloading tv shows. However, you should look on ebay.com and type in a search for 90210 and there is usually someone selling all 10 seasons of the show that they've made themselves on dvd or vhs. I'm not sure if you're familiar with ebay, but if not it is an online auction where people bid on hard-to-find items like tv shows. I purchased 90210 on dvd that way for around $200 and although the picture quality could be better, it was definitely one of the best buys I ever made!

As for your second question about Brandon and Kelly's 1st kiss, it is actually during season one's Spring Dance episode. Kelly asks Brandon to be her date, and at the Walsh house where they are pinning on corsages, she kisses him. Then when they are on the dance floor she kisses him again. The next time they kiss is in season 4 when Brandon and Kelly go on a square dance retreat. This is a few episodes before the Washington trip. I guess their frist kiss as a couple is at the end of season 4 with the "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" episode, but before they are offical they kiss on those other episodes. Hope this helps!
