Ryan Eggold spent his summer vacation from 90210 filming Trophy Kids, an indie that he describes as “a commentary on Generation Y, these kids who sort of… have a sense of entitlement.”

Eggold plays Max, a guy “who’s been on Easy Street his whole life.” Bored and looking to stroke his ego, Max “arrives at the idea of making a film” — about his hard-living, party-boy self, of course, says Eggold.

As Max enlists an aspiring screenwriter (played by 7th Heaven’s David Gallagher) to tell his tale, “Drama ensues, and there’s a girl in the middle — as there always is!”

Tahyna Tozzi (X-Men Origins: Wolverine’s Emma Frost) plays the beauty battled over by the boys, while Tania Raymonde (Lost) and Nathan Lee Graham (The Comeback) also have roles in the film.

Ultimately, Trophy Kids’ filmmakers hope to get the finished product showcased at film festivals, where “you hope somebody sees it and falls in love with it,” says Eggold.

This ain’t your grandma’s “90210.” On the original “90210,” Cindy and Jim Walsh were virtually sexless. Just the frumpy parents of Brenda and Brandon, who seemed content to live as feeders and dolers-out of advice to their two perfect-ish Beverly Hills children.

The grown-ups on this incarnation of “90210,” however, are a different breed. They have their very own plotlines, their very own inside jokes, and their very own — get this! — sex lives.

Whether or not you still see her as a teenager, Kelly Taylor is a grown-up by West Beverly standards. She has an adult job, she has a child (or at least she did at the beginning of the season) and she even plays mother hen to high-school-aged Silver. So, for better or for worst, this is an adult. Which is why it was so shocking to see Kelly coming onto bushy-browed teacher Mr. Matthews with such force. Toward the end of Tuesday’s episode, Kelly runs into Mr. Matthews at the grocery store, where he’s buying beer. He is only drinking three, he says; as for the other three, “no one’s called ‘em.” That’s when the Kelly unleashes her inner vamp. “I’m kinda thirsty,” she purrs, her statement oozing with innuendo. Moments later, she has ditched her unstable daughter-figure to get frisky with Ryan, the urgency of their initial embrace suggesting that things go very far, very fast. What would Cindy Walsh think!

Out promoting their hit CW show, the stars of “90210” were front and center at PaleyFest09 at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills on Saturday night (April 11).

Leading the way were “90210” hotties Shenae Grimes and Jessica Stroup, who were joined by Matt Latner, Ryan Eggold, Rob Estes and Rebecca Rand Kirshner Sinclair for the Diablo Cody-led panel discussion.

During the course of the evening, Shenae talked about her character’s journey this season, saying: “I think it’s been a struggle, I think it’s been a roller coaster. There are times when she’s straying from her roots a little bit more. And I think there are times, usually when she’s in trouble, where she comes back to those roots… she kind of stumbles back into the values she was raised with.”

Another hot issue was the question as to whether there are plans to bring David Silver or Dylan Walsh back to the new show.

“I think that would be great,” Rebecca Rand Kirshner Sinclair says. “But I also want to let these kids be the next generation of stars.”
