She’ll go back and forth for awhile. If she were a real person, that is. She just had a moment of “why am I doing this??!” If she were a real person, there’d be more moments like that, and then eventually she might dump them for good.
Yeah....I highly doubt that someone on prescribed weight loss pills (that are likely now banned in the US since the 90's) would all a sudden be down to binge on cookies because there was an intervention with people she barely knew besides Kelly.
am I the only one that remembers in the later seasons when it was Kelly's I think 18th bday she fainted in the bathroom cause she took diet pills? the real ones know lol.
I laughed how what looked like an entire 30 day prescription exploded out of Amanda's purse as if she just dumped it all on her purse rather than kept it on the bottle. Also, if you're taking prescribed diet pills (that likely have since been outlawed in the US post 90's) how could an intervention with a group of people that you do not know besides Kelly all a sudden make you have an appetite to binge on cookies??
Sometimes a person who's carrying a lot of personal struggle just needs love and acceptance to change their misery and loneliness into emotional connection and camaraderie.
You can tell she's not in high-school. The others are more believable even though I think they were a bit older than hs age too, Andrea definitely was.
Some people can take diet pills and keep it under control and some can’t. I know someone who once got hooked on diet and it was scary because she is my good friend and I hate seeing my friends in a dark place that they feel they can’t get out of. My friend was obsessed with want to look sexy in a thong bikini that she got hooked on diet pills in the process. Thankfully she realized that she had a problem and went to rehab and got clean before it really got out of control
Don’t you just love it when a serious addiction is completely resolved by a few kind words? Just like real life. PS this is giving “I’m soooo excited…. I’m so… scared!
The saddest thing is: 8th grade in the early 90's was really like that. Girls trying to lose weight when they don't need to. Notice how Kelly never said "you weren't fat". She said you were pretty, and then you lost all that weight and you were fine. So by Sophomore year, here we are 😢
Let me tell you it was hell. I wasn’t even that fat looking back but I was told you shouldn’t wear skirts because you’re legs are fat. I still to this day don’t wear skirts or dresses and I’m 44. That shit hurt.
KELLY: My mom used to pop these like candy and I will soon as well. No Megaburger is gonna prevent me from getting down to 83 pounds. AMANDA: Look, Kel. I'm a 28 year old high school senior and I can do as I please so stop going through my bag and let me leave. KELLY: No you need to stay here with MY 28 year old high school friend who is the newspaper editor and eat food with us so you can stop being a bitch. BRENDA: Yeah...every time I thought that I should be eating diet pills like Sweet Tarts I thought, "geez...why don't we just eat ice cream with popcorn?" DONNA: Yeah! Let's do that! I can't even imagine what it would be like to take something like that. Think about all the trouble you could get into at school and all the graduation ceremonies you could possibly mess. I mean...COME ON! KELLY: Right, Donna. Let's just get that abomination of a snack that Brenda suggested. I'm going to make it seem like I'm eating it but I'm just gonna let it melt and then tell all of you I ate it. I don't have an eating disorder. Seriously. AMANDA: Okay, fine. I'll have this ice cream concoction. But then I need to get home so I can finish my homework and get ready for a low-level career in the fashion industry. /SCENE
Donna,kelly,brenda were still teens rest were about 30,when it aired brenda was 19,kelly 18,donna i think was 18 too,if you look grease, teen movies in 70 or 50s most of them playing teen were about 35 or 40 😂 look at henry winkler happy days
Gabrielle carteris must have felt so uncomfortable in this scene,dont forget the truth about her real age hadnt come out at this early stage of the show yet,even the younger cast members looked a bit old for this slumber party scene
I wish people wouldn't push unhealthy foods on people who are really struggling with weight. My friends and family do it to me all the time. Its like offering heroin to a recoovering addict
The unrealistic part for me is girls like that wouldn’t invite an Andrea to a slumber party in real life. However, Andrea would be the type to talk to the rest of us ordinary people.
Brenda had no right talking to Kelly like that, I’m always a Brenda and Dylan shipper but it would make sense why Kelly and Dylan got togethar they literally grew up togethar as kids, and Kelly flirted with him before Brenda started dating Dylan, so Brenda shouldn’t have been mad
This reminds me of the Saved by the bell episode where Jessie gets hooked on diet pills and did the, “I’m so excited!! I’m so excited!! I’m so.. scared!” 😂😂
![4.28 Kelly & Brandon (1/2) [Acting Out]](/img/n.gif)
One meltdown and she’s ready to down a box of cookies? 😂 I hate myself. We don’t want you to hate yourself? Ok I don’t hate myself. and SCENE!
She’ll go back and forth for awhile. If she were a real person, that is. She just had a moment of “why am I doing this??!” If she were a real person, there’d be more moments like that, and then eventually she might dump them for good.
I mean it isnt unrealistic to let go and then do something you want like eat a book of cookies.
Lol and how strange that Donna starts mooching for cookies literally as soon as they sit down 😂 talk about rubbing it in Amanda's face 😂
Yeah....I highly doubt that someone on prescribed weight loss pills (that are likely now banned in the US since the 90's) would all a sudden be down to binge on cookies because there was an intervention with people she barely knew besides Kelly.

Love Amanda's near instant personality reversal starting from teary confession. Classic 90210.
Except that maybe that wasn't her personality.
I laughed how what looked like an entire 30 day prescription exploded out of Amanda's purse as if she just dumped it all on her purse rather than kept it on the bottle.
Also, if you're taking prescribed diet pills (that likely have since been outlawed in the US post 90's) how could an intervention with a group of people that you do not know besides Kelly all a sudden make you have an appetite to binge on cookies??
It’s called plot
Everyone bitches about Kelly but she always gave excellent advice to anyone that was an addict, including her Mother. ❤I loved Kelly.
Amanda.. Kelly's friend which we never hear about again
Except in the series finale really quickly
Yeah, it was during Donna's Bachelorette party when Andrea surprised Donna with ice cream and popcorn 😂
This is one of my two favorite eps right after Kelly’s mom at the fashion show.
this was the episode and scene that got me hooked! whatever happened to the character Amanda? They should have totally kept her on a regular
According to the producers, they couldn’t afford to at the time.
Kelly lecturing about diet pills when she took them herself is funny.
2 seasons later
I'm getting "Heather Chandler" vibes from this Amanda girl. Must be the hair? lol
Yes!
That is her I believe
She got these from Jessie Spano. She's so excited. So excited. So scared.
This is what good acting looks like. 👏 great scene they all did so amazing. Amanda should have been in more episodes she's a really good actress
But then she would have needed to remain a bad influence on Kelly, post-confession Amanda being not nearly as fun.
Sometimes a person who's carrying a lot of personal struggle just needs love and acceptance to change their misery and loneliness into emotional connection and camaraderie.
So much was solved that night! Lol
Hurt people hurt people
Andrea looks like a Mom
😂😂😂😂
she was a 30 when she was cast for the show.
coz she was and is lol
lol yes she does
I kind.pf wish Amanda would have stayed a minor character.
I wouldn’t have wanted Amanda to stay sorry
Oh why? She magically became nice once they discovered her diet pills and knew she was gonna eat some cookies
@@saramarshall2957😂😂😂😂
Ur mean dude
Um wtf Amanda needs to apologize
@@ladydaynamelbournehuh
Omg! No one is beautiful in 8th grade!
Whoa.
You just blew my mind!❤
Try to convince to 8th grade boys.
@@hd-xc2lz 😆 totally!
and we never saw Amanda again
Who covered the topic of diet pills better; Beverly Hills or Saved By The Bell?
Jesse's line "I'm so Excited....I'm so....scared" was iconic
Jesse was on caffeine pills, although they made it look like she was on cocaine 😂
BH90210 .. can’t stand sbtb
No comment that Amanda’s a great actress? She’s about 30 years old, but it’s still excellent line delivery especially for the time .
You can tell she's not in high-school. The others are more believable even though I think they were a bit older than hs age too, Andrea definitely was.
@@CrystalM1917 the actress was 30 in the first season
"How to cure an eating disorder in 1 minute".
Yeah it’s so far fetched lol 😂
Donna should have had the anorexia storyline. She looked it. But I think her dad would have been too sad to see that
If anyone else could go from bitch to cool in 3 minutes.
Some people can take diet pills and keep it under control and some can’t.

Kelly was actually sweeter and more helpful than given credit for.
Don’t you just love it when a serious addiction is completely resolved by a few kind words? Just like real life. PS this is giving “I’m soooo excited…. I’m so… scared!
I remember a teacher played us this episode in class at school one day. We thought it was corny then...most of us were still watching Degrassi High.
Later on kelly wud do the same thing
Kelly did tell Brenda she would never steal Dylan from her. That was a lie.
Famous last words @@deannaroberson1451
I love all the subjects on this show!
Stay and share your diet pills with us.
The saddest thing is: 8th grade in the early 90's was really like that. Girls trying to lose weight when they don't need to. Notice how Kelly never said "you weren't fat". She said you were pretty, and then you lost all that weight and you were fine. So by Sophomore year, here we are 😢

She goes from diet pills to eating a box of cookies in the span of one conversation.
Ha.. Amanda's Really Pretty & Funny 📦🍪
KELLY: My mom used to pop these like candy and I will soon as well. No Megaburger is gonna prevent me from getting down to 83 pounds.
AMANDA: Look, Kel. I'm a 28 year old high school senior and I can do as I please so stop going through my bag and let me leave.

/SCENE
Problems are solved so quickly
How long I looking for this video
That episode was so dramatic, cringy and intense. It had it all
0:30 Amanda's like "Oh my God what have I done"
That Serious Smolder that they did in teen soap operas 0:35 1:57,
so cheesy, so preachy, so gripping
Donna,kelly,brenda were still teens rest were about 30,when it aired brenda was 19,kelly 18,donna i think was 18 too,if you look grease, teen movies in 70 or 50s most of them playing teen were about 35 or 40 😂 look at henry winkler happy days
Andrea looks so out of place
Gabrielle carteris must have felt so uncomfortable in this scene,dont forget the truth about her real age hadnt come out at this early stage of the show yet,even the younger cast members looked a bit old for this slumber party scene
This was my favorite episode. This one and the one where Brenda finds a stray dog😅
This scene when Amanda take those pills in her purse why amanda do this to herself and i can't believe it
The irony. Kelly had the same problem a year later.
"I'm so excited... I'm so excited... I'm so-boo hoo hoo"
Amanda looks like their mom
These girls were the best ones
actually many guys LOVE "fat chicks" and chicks with curves, women we love all shapes and sizes
I wish people wouldn't push unhealthy foods on people who are really struggling with weight. My friends and family do it to me all the time. Its like offering heroin to a recoovering addict
The unrealistic part for me is girls like that wouldn’t invite an Andrea to a slumber party in real life. However, Andrea would be the type to talk to the rest of us ordinary people.
A month later....Amanda finally blimped out.
Xanax was a fad even back then
Amanda. A man, duh?
Brenda had no right talking to Kelly like that, I’m always a Brenda and Dylan shipper but it would make sense why Kelly and Dylan got togethar they literally grew up togethar as kids, and Kelly flirted with him before Brenda started dating Dylan, so Brenda shouldn’t have been mad
This reminds me of the Saved by the bell episode where Jessie gets hooked on diet pills and did the, “I’m so excited!! I’m so excited!! I’m so.. scared!” 😂😂
Jesse was on caffeine pills to keep her awake to study.
Drugs not goo😐😐

1:10 way harsh kelly 😂
No she was spot on. She was trying to put her on the right path. She asked her open up about it. She wanted her to be healthy.
