Steve Sanders - An Introduction

We all remember "Beverly Hills: 90210" in all its former glory--We laughed and cried, cheered and gasped, gossiped and left the couch during commercial breaks to replenish our popcorn all while comparing and relating the events of a small group of rich friends to our own pseudo-glamorous lives.

We can all agree that Brandon was good-natured and lovable, Dylan was wise yet bad-ass, and David was just a huge weiner with tacky style choices. The male character on 90210 with whom my friends and I can never find a common consensus about is the wealthy and headstrong adopted son Steve Sanders.

Despite his shortcomings as a shallow, wealthy, horny, class-failing jock who drives an expensive Corvette, I have dedicated this blog to the cause of showing the world that Steve Sanders is one 90210 season short of the second coming of Jesus Christ.

I will be posting a new entry for every time in the series that Steve overcomes his selfish nature to do something so kind and generous that it causes the de-canonization of an established saint, pockets of the universe to implode, and causes God's heart to break.

Here is a brief list of several of the amazing things Steve Sanders has done in Beverly Hills: 90210;

-Interfered with and prevented the raping of close friend Kelly Taylor
-Joined the Best Buddies program where he meets computer genius freshman 'Herman.' After using him to break into the computer to change his grades, he eventually fesses up in order to save Herman from getting in trouble. This act results in Steve's expulsion and the bastardization of his future.
-Manages series loser David Silver's awful music career, and even gets him a record deal, despite the fact that David's music is worse than masturbating with sandpaper.
-Makes a half-court shot at a basketball game and wins ten thousand dollars. Instead of spending the money on himself, he uses it to revitalize a community program involving the developing of relationships with inner-city elementary school children (the program was about to be canceled right before Christmas).
-At said Christmas event for the aforementioned underprivileged children, Steve dressed up like Santa Claus and skipped his detention to bring joy to the children's hearts.
-Joins a fraternity (KEG) and becomes the fall guy because of his noble act to prevent KEG president John Sears from raping a homeless teenager. Instead of being kicked out, Steve gets John Sears kicked out.
-While borrowing Andrea Zuckerman's room, Steve counters his frat brother's obnoxious douchebaggery by seducing the attractive RA, thus sparing Andrea from losing her room. All while not wearing a shirt.
-Takes a punch from Dylan meant for Brandon, completely diffusing the situation.


There are many more reasons why Steve Sanders is the best guy ever, and I plan on airing them all out in due time. I hope you'll agree.
