rewatching this storyline as an adult just makes me shake my head. if this happened today, no way the student would've gotten a pass and donna got a pass. she shouldn't have been allowed to graduate. donna knew the rules, she broke the rules and she should've dealt w/the consequences of her actions. they kept making it seem like donna only had 1 drink. that it was so innocent. that it was just an accident. the girl was drinking and had more in the limo on the way to prom. steve encouraged them having more, acting like it wasn't a big deal. donna was actually concerned but didn't think, oh, maybe she shouldn't have more to drink. david surely didn't stop her. by the time they got to prom, she couldn't even stand on the dance floor or walk, then collapses in front of the vp. like, it was just a night of bad decision making. but it is a show and they gotta create some kind of drama for another privileged beverly hills character. so no, i'm not a fan of this donna martin graduates storyline. 😒
I'd have cancelled commencement that year, sent all those self entitled brats to summer school, mailed them their diplomas and best of luck getting done in time to start at a four year college or even getting into one with that kind of smug, self entitled behavior on their school record.
I had older siblings and was 5-10 when this show was really popular. I remember calling it "the high school with thirty year olds...and one forty year old (Andrea)" Looking at it now, young me was spot on! How did anybody think Andrea was in high school? The woman looks older than me here and I'm in my late 30s.
They were in their mid 20s most of the actors but they look old because of the style back then just made people look older - the clothes, the hair, the makeup - it all just made people look older than they actually were unlike nowadays
Super cute how they did the show where so many people showed up to support her graduating with her class. But in reality I bet you less than the eight friends would even show up to risk their graduation just for one person. I do not think Andrea or Brandon would have risked their academic features for one person in real life. But this is one reason why I like TV shows❤
...why didn't they make that Elayne Boosler chick the Head of the council!? ...She's cool as HELL! "...yea-, I'd just like ta sayyy....." (3:12) ...ha-HAAA!!
You can tell Felice is already thinking up ways to lure Ephardt to the Bel-Age Hotel. “Harder George, harder. Let’s cancel summer vacation, let’s slash the budget on extracurricular programs and remove all the vending machines ohmygod oh yes oh yes!!”
What if Donna got behind the wheel and hurt someone or even killed someone? The fact that Brandon even said this punishment should be reserved for those who cause trouble is ridiculous.
my town was so over crowded that we had to have two middles schools and had to go on color track system and we had a new middle school which housed 7th through 9th grade. we had no gangs and the priniciple of the older middle school who came from LA had implemented that anyone wearing green red or blue or had baggy pants were gang related and wanted us to have see through back packs. Because of the gang volence that he was sure everyone was in so we decided after seeing this on tv us being fresh men. decided to do a demostration. We walked out 8th and 9th grade right during a finals test was half a day. We also had a walk out because we have a dance for the beginning of each year two days before school let out and year and welcome back dance the week before school. Because some of the kids wore those colors they were taking that away from us. Needless to say we won. This clip shows what kind of power students can have if they work together. we now have less kids two middles one in town and one on the other side. But, are now 6th to 8th grade and high school being a normal 9th to 11th grade.
Sorry but this is bullshit. She was caught drinking at a school event that is strictly prohibited. She knew the punishment and did it anyway. If Donna got hurt or hurt someone else on an inebriated state at the prom, that would be some lawsuit. What if she got behind the wheel of a car. I will say not graduating is kind of severe but if that’s the rule, don’t drink on prom night.
The perfect example of how all of students, faculty, alumni, the entire fan base of #TheUniversityOfMichigan should rise and stand up to the negative professionalism condoned by #PaulFinebaum! 😠😤😡
In real life, the police would be called on everybody and people dragged off to jail. Might even have some police brutality. And no, there wouldn't be this big protest over somebody not being allowed to walk.
And after Brenda supporting her friend Donna and Kelly , both gave her the cold shoulder when she was protesting for animal rights.
Ha ha was that Rocky ?
This
Two completely different scenarios
So true
But Brenda committed a felony and planned with criminals targeted by the FBI
“I know how important Donna Martin is to all of you” Who knew she was this popular 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Melanie Silverman was impressed with Brandon’s demonstration
No student class would ever do this for a classmate, but it made for great tv lol
Maybe more should
you never know
I remember my high school had a huge walk out when they banned baseball caps
May be they would, as a tictoc challenge. 😂
@@8XSaintX8 ....
The men on the board could care less lol
Popular clique at school sucks in a bunch of pick me kids to fail their exams for a drunk rich girl
In real life …agree. It was sweet for the show though
One mistake should not have such dire consequences.
“I know you all care about Donna Martin” the whole school? Why the heck would they? Who is she?
How many of these kids were supporting her because of peer pressure? I can’t believe she was held in so much affection.

This storyline was the worst, made for 10 tear olds.
They probabily would today in current climate we r living in
Right 😂 my teenage fave but now as older I know what you mean.. still missing them days ❤
@@pedaugherty2393and that is what makes you a miserable human being
Ridiculous ... overly dramatic
Donna Martin graduates was the anthem of the 90's. Leave it to all the guys on the board to say no to Donna Martin graduating. 😡
Most stupid storyline ever.

@@ruskrewed I hear you. Much like the 1980s fashions too. Still lol she pronounced her name ON-DRE-UH. But you’re right for sure
Melanie Silverman was definitely digging Brandon.
I think at 0:44 is when they started saying Donna Martin Master bates like Ian said. Look how their mouths are off key 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂. I secretly 😮hate this show
When Brandon Walsh means business, everyone else best step aside.....
Donna Martin graduates 🔥💪
I agree I think Donna drank too much but didn't deserve such harsh treatment . July 22 2024
Donna did break the rules. Just saying...
correction: everyone broke the rules
All the men said nay lol what a liberal left wing show
0:56 kELLY tripping haha
This is so hilarious 😂 (cringe).
this has to be the best episode of the entire series
It’s absolutely peak “90210”.
The precursor to The Me Too Movement helped Donna Martin graduate! LOL
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
😅😅😅😅😅

High school careers. LMAO. so dramatic.
I agree Donna should have graduated
So many causes to protest in the world during that time and yet Donna Martin was what they focused on
This and the electric slide dance to end all racism is the gayest thing seen on 90s tv lmao 😊
Clearly you didn't watch much 90's tv. There was way more gay shit
I have to agree, lol 30 years later and it sure was cringe worthy but at the time it was the coolest thing ever. 😅🙏☮️✌️
"Squash It" was pretty bad
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"We love Donna, and we are not going to see her hurt!" Amen and I want to say hell yes, I agree.
But we are all more than willing to see Brenda get hurt and do nothing, that’s the part that was cut
@@Tityretupatulae Interesting.
What if it was some unpopular poor kid? Nobody would do crap. Donna did break the rules, she wasn't innocent at all.
What if Donna got behind the wheel and hurt someone or even killed someone? The fact that Brandon even said this punishment should be reserved for those who cause trouble is ridiculous.
Brandon finally got through to Superintendent Ephardt
The guy had almost as much power as then president Clinton.😂
Oh, thank goodness! I was sooooo worried that Donna wouldn't graduate. 😂😂 I just love the over the top cheese of this show!
This is not 'Nam, there are rules.
When Melanie said to George that they went beyond “Robert’s Rules”. They ALREADY DID when they passed the no drinking rule and the dress code
Donna Martin graduates as sept 12 2024
Ms. Teasley sounds like Donna’s mom
So, after graduation, all to Valencia.
Six Flags Magic Mountain!
They went there two episodes earlier.
@@tvtimetravel
Ah!
1993?
Me too!
NO I believe donna martin

0:43 - 😂 Gabrielle is mouthing along with no voice….ADR team is happy. On a side note Brandon walking around like a big boss 😂.
All of this, just because Donna is stupid enough to get caught
Sorry but this is bullshit. She was caught drinking at a school event that is strictly prohibited. She knew the punishment and did it anyway. If Donna got hurt or hurt someone else on an inebriated state at the prom, that would be some lawsuit. What if she got behind the wheel of a car. I will say not graduating is kind of severe but if that’s the rule, don’t drink on prom night.
Of course the men when the Nay votes and the women were the overriding votes. Super Cringe.

😠😤😡
Brenda goes to Minnesota college California university so sad she is gone luke Dylan Donna Martin graduates July 31 2024
Revolution is good👍❤
Brandon was the man. I used to try to do my hair like him😂
Wow, an insurrection!
The part starting @0:29 is hella gay.
That was hella gay.😂
I cringe so much
Why do 3 of them have to say, "Donna Martin graduates?" It's beyond hella gay. It's uber hella gay.
Yea it’s bad…..still, nothing beats Teen Witch with Robin Lively 🤣. “TOP THAT…TOP THAT!!! MyGod I still have nightmares
I replayed it, and this had me rolling.😂😂😂😂
She did break the rules but privileged kids always get away with things
Brandon is cool! Turns around puts his hand up and they all quiet down.
Donna Martin graduates august 1-3 2024
1:33, oh boy! Brandon leading the brigade!
Dylan too 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️😂😂😂
@@ladybug7273 But this was Brandon’s idea 💡
In real life, the police would be called on everybody and people dragged off to jail. Might even have some police brutality. And no, there wouldn't be this big protest over somebody not being allowed to walk.
i'm not sure what they do is illegal
90' was a last decade people had balls.
Sarebbe bello se nella vita reale fosse davvero cosi
I totally agree i
None of these randoms gave a sh it about Donna 😂
lol there's a FREE DONNA sign
j6 riot,
Brandon sounded as brave and spoke like Dr. Martin Luther King
Jim was proud of Brandon’s speech and gave everyone the look of “that’s my boy”
😂
🤣
August 12 2024
Brandon told Jim that they have gone too far to go back
All her friends came to help her.
& they all took a Stand with The School board.
DMG
Release the hounds.
Nice line there for dylan,coz he initially didn't agree to the plan & everybody getting in trouble. It's a way to let u know he was in...
A way to make him oh so the coolest again…
Again in all drama'a sake this Bisbal sample that gathering together makes the force of the one as the force of everybody.
Delete Bisbal. This word should be disregarded.
The drunk didn't deserve to graduate
Stop the bs u really act like u are an angel or saint
One of the gayest moments in the history of television.
Lmao
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
