Jason Priestley and current stars of '90210' speak up about the show's cancellation

Actor Jason Priestley, or Brandon Walsh from the original Beverly Hills, 90210, put his two cents in upon hearing the news of the CW's 90210 being cancelled after five seasons.

The CW announced Thursday that the current and final season will end on the 13th of May, due to some not-so-good ratings this year.

Priestley tweeted in response, "Lasted half as long as the original...Not bad, guys..."

Priestley directed an episode of the CW spin-off back in 2008, which also featured fellow Beverly Hills alums Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling.

Mark Pedowitz, president of CW, said in a statement to Us Weekly, "The CW has had five great seasons with America's favorite zip code, 90210. I'd like to thank the talented cast, producers and crew for all their hard work and dedication to the series. We are very proud of the West Beverly High alumni."
