19 Life Lessons You Learned From ‘Beverly Hills 90210′

The Peach Pit is back open for business 25 years later, for one day only.

Twenty-five years have passed since the start of one of the most famous five-digit numbers in pop culture history: “Beverly Hills, 90210.”

Brandon and Brenda Walsh first set foot inside of West Beverly Hills High School 25 years ago today, starting an adventure that would last for ten full seasons — many of them without Brandon and Brenda — and even launch a spinoff show. At least Brenda had the decency to show up for that one.

But we’re not just saluting “90210” for giving us the likes of Kelly Taylor, Dylan McKay, Steve Sanders and the rest of the gang — we’re also saluting the show for imparting invaluable life lessons, such as…

Chances are she’s Valerie and she’s here to poison your whole world.

If he’s anything like Ray Pruit, he’s going to hit you, and that’s not going to be cool.

They’ll shoot your wife — BY ACCIDENT, but still.

Then be as awesome and responsible as Andrea Zuckerman — which means, get the heck out of Beverly Hills when the kids get too rowdy. (See also: Hilary Swank.)

It might come out of nowhere, like it did for Steve and Janet.

Was the other night in the limo your first time? DIDN’T THINK SO.

Eventually, David and Donna reconciled, got married, and lived their best life. Keep an open mind with people who burn you… at least to a point.

I didn’t say it’s COOL to call off the wedding, but if Brandon and Kelly can do it, so can you, if you must.

There’s a Peach Pit, and there’s a Peach Pit After Dark. There’s Maroon 5 playing at the Peach Pit After Dark, and there’s Maroon 5 playing at sold-out concerts around the world. The list of examples goes on.

Take time away if you need to, but come back for a check-in at least.

Coming back via video message is lame and it does not count. Gotta be honest, Priestley, I don’t think we’re ever letting that one go.

You never know what the future will bring.

Who knows? Another “90210” reboot could be just around the corner.

Likes pizza, punch and pie. Dislikes the Chitauri.
