Who's Kelly's Baby Daddy?!?!
OK, I admit it... My name's Kamikaze Kitty and *le gasp* I'M ADDICTED TO THE NEW 90210!!!!!!! EEP!
I tried (OH, HOW I TRIED! *sniff*) not to let the blackhole known as 90210 (v2.0) suck me in this season. I was a HUMUNGOUS fan of the original series, watched it religiously as a teenager, covered entire text books with Mrs. Mia Walsh. (It was a sickness really; if not, a disease.) So I simply refused to accept that a so-called "spin-off" could ever live up to the legend that is Beverly Hills, 90210.
Then the rumors started...Tori Spelling (a.k.a. Donna Martin) was coming back to make a guest appearance. Scratch that, Donna wants too much money. Let's bring back Kelly Taylor (Jennie Garth) instead! Wait...Kelly's coming back? Well, if you bring Kelly back then you HAVE to bring back the baddest bitch in the BH90210 area code! Outraged cries of "BRING BACK BRENDA WALSH!!" echoed across the country. And lo, the mighty CW execs heard our plee and so it was done.
The one thing I think none of the producers over at the CW counted on was the plot arcs for the old cast members overshadowing the new. Particularly, the identity of Kelly Taylor's baby daddy--which we all know *has* to be Dylan McKay because they were soul mates who were meant for each other and, and... *squeak*
Just look at him (to the right) smiling into his bowl of...what the hell is that? Is that ice cream? Right before bed?? Oh, Kelly! I hope Mr. Toothbrush is visiting the kid next!
Anyway, he's smiling into the bowl like a little curly haired moppet. (Or should I say hobbit? Either way, creepy bug-eyed Frodo's got nothing on this kid!) Isn't he adorable? He reminds me of a young Macaulay Culkin.
His name is Sammy and he's four years old--
Wait a minute... Curly hair? Where did that come from? And, while we're at it, I thought Kelly had a miscarriage in Season Seven (that baby daddy was Brandon) and was told she couldn't have children? Yet here she is all Mommy and me!
Turns out Kelly has endometriosis, a condition that makes having children difficult but NOT impossible. Got it? Good.
And, is it just me, or does little Sammy look an awful lot like Steve Sanders? The mop of blond curls is a dead giveaway! (Alright, so maybe the kid got the blond hair from his mother but that still doesn't explain the curls, does it?) In fact, isn't Steve's mom's name Samantha Sanders? Could Sammy be named after her? But Steve was happily married to Janet when BH90210 ended and a doting father to baby Maddie. Would he really risk all that for a one night stand with Kelly? Maybe. He was in love with her for quite a long time in the original series.
There's also some confusion in the Pilot episode of 90210 (v2.0) when Kelly appears to be on the phone with Sammy's dad (saying, "He asks about you, you know.")
Later on, Brenda and Kelly meet up at The Peach Pit and Brenda mentions her estranged brother, saying Brandon told her to pass on a message to Kelly that she's beautiful. Kelly responds with, "Yeah, he told me on the phone last night when he called me from Belize at 3 am. What is it with you Walshes not being able to stay in one place?" *Gasp* Could Brandon be the baby daddy?? Has he been absent from Sammy's life this long due to his job as an investigative journalist?
Thing is...Brandon has always been a big Boy Scout at heart. Mr. Morals that he is, most fans (including me) have a hard time swallowing the idea that Brandon would simply disappear from his young son's life. Plus, there's the fact that neither Kelly nor Auntie Brenda have referred to Sammy as Brenda's nephew yet. Kelly actually stated that Brenda hasn't seen Sammy since he was a baby. If Brenda is Sammy's aunt then why hasn't she seen him in three years? She certainly has no problem making time to leave London and return to Beverly Hills in order to direct a silly school play.
Of course, there's always Dylan. *Shakes head* Dylan, Dylan, Dylan...*le sigh* Dylan. The man that caused a love triangle on the scale of Armageddon between he, Brenda and Kelly. Dylan. The guy that runs whenever responsibility rears its ugly head.
Dylan had a hard childhood. He was abandoned by his parents too. But wasn't there a few episodes where Dylan actually came down on dead beat parents for not being there for their kids?
Okay, now I'm thoroughly confuzzled. If it's not Brandon, Dylan or Steve--who else could it be? Nat?
Here are the clues we've gotten from Kelly so far...
Kelly's mom was a notorious Dylan hater. She couldnt' stand Dylan and had no problems making her dislike for him known. Hence, why I think Sammy will ultimately end up being Dylan's boy. And, let's face it, that would make damn good TV! At least, IMHO. :-) hehe
The CW announced that the father will be revealed by Brenda tonight on 90210 so STAY TUNED!! Every middle-aged soccer mom in the US (Sarah Palin, this means you! LOL) will be glued to their screens in just a few hours, a hair's breath away from insanity should the daddy turn out to be someone completely unexpected like David Silver or Nat. (Heh. Although I kinda like the idea of Nat scoring a little nookie on the side. That Nat! Such a heartbreaker! *wink*)
So who do you think Sammy's daddy SHOULD be? Speak up and let yourself be heard!

Miss Mia
P.S. Watch the daddy be someone really obscure like that punk Colin who got Kelly hooked on drugs or Jake Hansen (Grant Show) from Melrose's Place. I swear I'll scream!!

Here are the clues we've gotten from Kelly so far...
- She knew the guy back in high school and they have a history together.
- The couple went their separate ways but hooked up four years ago; thus producing Sammy. Then the father apparently took off, leaving poor Kelly in the lurch with baby Sammy now in tow. (Totally a Dylan thing to do! Or is it? *wonkyeyebrow*)
Kelly's mom was a notorious Dylan hater. She couldnt' stand Dylan and had no problems making her dislike for him known. Hence, why I think Sammy will ultimately end up being Dylan's boy. And, let's face it, that would make damn good TV! At least, IMHO. :-) hehe
