90210's Jennie Garth: It'll Be "a Hoot" Working With Jason Again

Jennie Garth is thrilled her original 90210 co-star Jason Priestley will be directing an upcoming episode of the CW spin-off.

"I'm happy that he's there. Jason directed a couple of episodes of the original show, and he was great," she told Usmagazine.com Saturday at the fourth annual GLSEN Respect Awards in Beverly Hills. "He's a hoot, so it'll be fun!"

Will Luke Perry be returning?

"Well, I just talked to him on the phone on my way here, and he didn't mention coming back at all," she said. "I don't know if that's going to happen, but I would love it."

At times, Garth admitted, "I feel old. It's hard because the original 90210 was the first of its kind. It was the first teen show that showed teen angst and all the drama that goes along with teens.

"With this show, it's hard, because there are a lot of other teen shows out there now - they're a dime a dozen," she added. "So now it's hard to come up with fresh and exciting ideas."

Garth told Us she isn't sure if she'll stick around for the second season.

"I'm just trying to get through episode 10!" she said.

The show "is going well," she went on. "If the story writing is good, if people like it and people want it, then that's what I'll do."

She joked, "If everyone's like, 'Get her out of there, kick her out!' I'm not going to hang out!"
