Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who played Dylan McKay?

Answer: Luke Perry

Luke Perry played Dylan until midway through the sixth season of "90210". He was the first starring cast member to voluntarily quit the show. He returned part way through the ninth season and remained until the show ended after ten years.
2. Who was it who once described Dylan as "mad, bad and dangerous to know"?

Answer: Dylan

He said this in the first season episode "The Green Room". He was talking to Brandon about Lord Byron and said: "Mad, bad and dangerous to know; that was him and that's me".
3. Aside from surfing, which sport was Dylan's favourite?

Answer: baseball

He said that he loved baseball in the first season episode "Spring Training", when Brandon was trying to recruit him to help coach Jim's Little League team. He also played hockey with Brandon and Steve in the second season episode "Fire and Ice".
4. Dylan was a chronic abuser of which substance?

Answer: alcohol

Dylan was an alcoholic right from the beginning of the show. He was in AA but had several relapses over the years, including in the second season when his mother moved in with him and drove him crazy; in the third season after his father's funeral; and in between the fourth and the fifth season - possibly because Brenda left town.
5. Who did Dylan ultimately choose in the third season, Kelly or Brenda?

Answer: Kelly

While Brenda was in Paris, Dylan began seeing Kelly. Brenda broke up with Dylan later on in the third season and he began publicly seeing Kelly, leading to a big conflict between her and Brenda. In the Christmas episode "It's a Totally Happening Life", they told Dylan he had to make a choice - by New Year's.

A few episodes later, Dylan's father was released from prison and wanted Dylan to invite his friends over for a celebration party in "Back in the High Life Again". Kelly was the only one who showed up for the party, and Dylan told her he chose her to date.
6. What was Dylan's sister's name?

Answer: Erica

Erica, played by Noley Thornton, and her mother Suzanne Steele showed up on Dylan's doorstep in the fourth season episode "Somewhere in the World it's Christmas". Erica's father was Jack McKay, making her and Dylan half-siblings. Over the course of the season, Dylan and Erica grew closer, but Suzanne and her boyfriend were scamming Dylan for his money.

In the eighth season, Brandon and Kelly discovered Erica working as a prostitute in downtown Los Angeles.
7. What did Dylan offer Kelly in the fifth season?

Answer: a trip around the world

In the episode "Hello Life, Goodbye Beverly Hills", Dylan asked Kelly to go on a trip around the world with him. Brandon, her boyfriend at that time, countered with an engagement ring. After thinking it over, she chose neither of them.
8. Where did Dylan go after the death of his wife?

Answer: London

It was discovered at the end of the sixth season that Dylan went to London to be with Brenda. His wife Toni died in the episode "One Wedding and a Funeral" and Dylan decided to leave town shortly afterwards. At the end of the season, in "You Say It's Your Birthday (Part 1)", the rest of the gang sent an invitation to Brenda for Steve's birthday party, but received a reply from Dylan from Brenda's address.
9. Did Dylan's father really die?

Answer: No

Jack McKay's car exploded, with him apparently in it, in the third season episode "Dead End" and it was assumed for years that he was dead. However, in the tenth season, it was discovered that Jack was alive and living in Arizona under an assumed name.
10. In which season did Dylan graduate from university?

Answer: tenth

Though the rest of the gang graduated from California University at the end of the seventh season in "Graduation Day (Parts 1 and 2)", Dylan didn't graduate until the end of the tenth season, in "The Penultimate" because he left California for a few years.
