Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which future "Friends" star played a young and suicidal athlete at West Beverly High?

Answer: Matthew Perry

Perry played Roger Azarian in the season one episode "April is the Cruelest Month". He was a star on the school's tennis team, and Brandon was supposed to interview him for the school paper. The two became friends and Roger asked Brandon to read a screenplay he had written. Brandon became concerned because the screenplay was about a young man who wanted to kill his father. Brandon was afraid that it was more than fiction, and went to Roger's house to talk to him.

When he got there, he found that Roger wasn't thinking of killing his father, he was thinking of killing himself.
2. Which actress had a recurring role in the sixth season as Dylan's wife?

Answer: Rebecca Gayheart

Rebecca Gayheart played Toni Marchette for eight episodes of season six. Her last appearance was in "One Wedding and a Funeral". She was the daughter of Anthony Marchette, whom Dylan had discovered was responsible for the death of Jack McKay. In his quest for revenge, Dylan fell in love with Toni and they began a relationship, despite her father's fury.

They decided to get married, and Marchette pretended to go along with it to get back on his daughter's good side. However, he was launching a plan to murder Dylan.

After the first attempt on Dylan's life was ruined when the guys kidnapped him for a bachelor party, Marchette's hit men tried again after the wedding. It was dark out and raining, so they couldn't see that Toni was driving Dylan's car.

They shot her by mistake. Toni died and Dylan left town shortly after.
3. A future famous star played a geeky young kid in an episode of "90210" in which he and his friend were set up on blind dates with Brenda and Kelly. Who was it?

Answer: Seth Green

In the midst of their tension over which of them Dylan would ultimately choose, Brenda and Kelly agreed to go on a blind date with two guys that Cindy had said attended Princeton. The guys turned out to be about 15 years old and actually went to the Princeton School for Boys at Encino. Cindy made them go out on the date anyway, and the boys (one of whom was played by Seth Green) took them to an arcade.

They didn't enjoy the boys' company, but ended up having a blast playing games together, leading them to remember what good friends they were before the whole Dylan fiasco. In addition to many films and TV appearances, Seth Green was widely known as Oz on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" for three seasons.
4. Which big time movie star made a quick appearance as himself at the Peach Pit?

Answer: Burt Reynolds

Burt was in the third season episode "She Came in Through the Bathroom Window". A young woman (who turned out to be a good liar and con artist) had arranged a tour of the Burt Reynolds' fan club through L.A. which included a stop for breakfast at the Peach Pit.

While there, the tour guide claimed that her boss had set up a scam and she couldn't pay the breakfast bill, and also couldn't take the people to meet Burt Reynolds as planned. Steve used his mother's connections in the acting world to place a call to Burt and invite him to the Peach Pit.
5. Which of these "Melrose Place" stars played a cross-over character on "90210"?

Answer: Grant Show

Show's character Jake Hanson appeared in a couple of episodes of "90210" at the end of the second season. He was shown to be a surfing buddy of Dylan's, as well as a short-term love interest of Kelly's. He had been working on building a wedding canopy for Jackie and Mel's wedding, and started fooling around with Kelly. He didn't stay in Kelly's life, however.
6. Quite a few bands and musical acts graced the screen on "90210", especially at the Peach Pit After Dark, but I was most surprised to see this band in a season five episode.

Answer: Rolling Stones

The episode, "Rock of Ages (a.k.a. The Voodoo That You Do So Well)", started with Jim blasting Rolling Stones music in the house. He got two tickets for Brandon for the Rolling Stones' Rose Bowl concert through a client. Kelly was unable to go, so Brandon took Andrea. Most of the gang went as well, with Donna and her boyfriend Ray working as vendors to see the show for free. Quite a bit of concert footage was shown.
7. A future Oscar winner had a recurring role as a single mother on "90210". Who is the famous actress who played a girlfriend of Steve?

Answer: Hilary Swank

Swank played Carly Reynolds, who first appeared in the eighth season premiere "Aloha Beverly Hills". Steve met her because her son Zach played soccer with Kelly and David's sister Erin. Their relationship ended when Carly moved back home to Montana to be with her father when he got sick.
8. Who portrayed Rick, the guy that Brenda met in Paris?

Answer: Dean Cain

Dean Cain is best known for starring in the television series "Lois and Clark" as well as hosting "Ripley's Believe It or Not". At the beginning of the third season, Brenda and Donna took a trip to Paris. In the episode "Shooting Star/American in Paris", Brenda met Rick in a park in Paris.

He thought she was a French girl, and she didn't correct him while they spent time together in Paris. Though she had a good time with him, she decided not to join him in traveling through the rest of Europe. Instead she went home to Dylan. Brenda ran into Rick later in the season, in a video store in L.A. in "Destiny Rides Again".

She broke up with Dylan to date Rick, but her relationship with Rick didn't get very far.
9. Who guest-starred as a rocker boy in season three, an ex-boyfriend of Brandon's girlfriend Nikki?

Answer: David Arquette

David Arquette played Diesel Stone in the third season episode "Wild Horses". Diesel was a primary reason why Nikki Witt had moved to Beverly Hills to live with her aunt; because he had been abusing her and she couldn't get out of their relationship. While in town, Diesel and his band played a song that he had written for Nikki, and she started to become attracted to him again.

After Diesel hit Nikki for trying to leave his hotel room, Brandon showed up and punched Diesel out.
10. Which future "Grey's Anatomy" star had a small recurring role as Brandon's boss at the Beverly Hills Beach Club?

Answer: James Pickens, Jr

James Pickens, Jr. played Henry Thomas, the coordinator of employees at the beach club. He hired Brandon to be a cabana boy in the summer at the beginning of season two, and rehired him for the next summer, the beginning of season three. Henry's favorite show was the soap opera "The Young and the Restless".
