E! brings a new 90210 to television

This is how television programming logic works. We have one successful show - Dr. 90210 - and a second successful show - The Girls Next Door. If we combine the two, than we get a third successful show - duh. These guys don't get paid the big bucks for nothing.

What exactly would the bastard child of Dr. 90210 and The Girls Next Door look like? Wonder no longer. It looks like the new reality series from E! Entertainment Television - High Maintenance 90210. The show promises to take viewers inside the "mansions of the super-rich residents of Beverly Hills." Each episode's storyline will be told from the point-of-the-view of the domestic workers that keep the worlds of the "super-wealthy" and "super-demanding" spinning.

It's an Upstairs, Downstairs for the Botoxed and beautiful SoCal set. I'm sure the show will adhere to every possible stereotype about how arrogant and vapid rich people are, and it will bring us great pleasure to mock their histrionics. Yet, the uber-wealthy 2% of this country will always get the last laugh because when the camera is off they're still sitting pretty and the "domestics" don't have health insurance.

High Maintenance 90210 debuts at 11PM on New Year's Day.
