Line 1:
{{tropework}}
* [[Actor Allusion]]:
* [[Hey Its That Guy]]: It seems Michael from [[The Wire]] did get a lucky break after all.
** [[South of Nowhere|Maeve Quinlan]] as the mother of a girl who dates another girl.
** Annie was Darcy on [[Degrassi]]
** In one episode, Dixon is given a fake ID with a Spanish name on it. Tristan Wilds is Hispanic.
** Debbie was Aunt Becky in [[Full House]]
* [[The Danza]]: Ryan Matthews is played by Ryan Eggold.
** Riley is played by Riley Smith.
* [[Dawson Casting]]: In the extreme, to the point where this trope is often called "90210 Syndrome" outside of this wiki, since the extremeness makes ''[[Dawson's Creek]]'' look like they cast age-appropriately.
** Though there were some aversions (Brian Austin Green, Tori Spelling and a few others), the straight examples were very extreme (most infamous was Gabrielle Carteris who was twenty-nine when she started on the show).
** Teddy Montgomery is 17 or 18. His actor, Trevor Donovan, is 31.
* [[Dye Hard]]: Silver is a natural blonde as shown in the parent shown, but is a brunette for the entirety of the series save for when she briefly dyed it red.
* [[Executive Meddling]]: Season Two drops Ethan and focuses a lot more on the new characters rather than the old cast. That's cleverly done for Kelly's mother's funeral as it's not shown and Silver comments that a lot of people that knew her but she didn't know attended.
* [[Fake American]]: Shenae Grimes is Canadian.
* [[Fake Nationality]]: Michael Steger is a mix of several nationalities but Iranian (or anything Arabic) is not one of them.
* [[Hey, ItsIt's That Guy!]]: It seems Michael from [[The Wire]] did get a lucky break after all.
** Annie was Darcy on [[Degrassi]].
** Debbie was Aunt Becky in [[Full House]].
** [[South of Nowhere|Ashley Davies]] as Gia's ex.
*** Paula Carlin as Adriann's mom.
*** Plus Aiden plays Jeremy.
** [[DEBSD.E.B.S.|Amy Bradshaw]] as Naomi's evil sister.
** [[The Lying Game|Ethan Whitehorse]] as Ivy's British friend.
** [[The Vampire Diaries|Tyler Lockwood]] made Naomi kiss Annie.
** [[Hannah Montana|Billy Ray Cyrus]] as Austin's dad.
** [[Friday Night Lights|Julie Taylor]] as Rhonda.
* [[The Other Darrin]]: Rather than bringing back Mercedes Castner to play Silver, she was played by Jessica Stroup.
 
* [[Unintentional Period Piece]]: This was the first of the many, many iconic [[Teen Drama|teen dramas]] of [[The Nineties]], and the first of many to fall into this trope. It also does a great job at keeping up with the times. Season One looks straight out of the 80s while Season Five and later look straight up 90s.
