So many things to say about this 1993 MTV News report on Shannen Doherty and the phenomenon of the “I Hate Brenda Newsletter,” a little zine published about how much “Beverly Hills, 90210″‘s Brenda Walsh and Doherty sucked. For one, Shannen Doherty wanted to start a grunge band called Uncle Velvet? Why is John Corbett there?

Be still my beating heart! TV’s hottest bitch ever, Shannen Doherty, is in talks to be in the CW’s Beverly Hills 90210 spin-off playing everyone’s favorite Walsh, Brenda. The thought that the Kelly/Brenda fued might continue into their thirties, thrills my soul to its very core. And for the record, brunettes rule, blondes DROOL. [DListed] Keep reading »
