 | | Funnier than creator Darren Star's inadvertently funny new Wall Street drama ''The Street,'' ''Pointe'' takes the air out of the gassy nighttime youth soap opera by way of dexterous acting -- the way the performers execute both their characters and the characters they play on the show within the show is remarkably adroit. |
 | | Star has already taken heat from Spelling's famous pop, producer Aaron Spelling, a mentor and producing colleague on "90210" and "Melrose Place." Spelling complained to WB executives about the character's similarities to his daughter, who originally got her job on "90210" through Daddykins. |
 | | Darren Star, the creator of HBO's very mature comedy Sex and the City, is still best known as the man behind Beverly Hills, 90210, the teen drama that made stars of Shannen Doherty, Luke Perry, Jason Priestley and, to a lesser degree, Tori Spelling, daughter of megaproducer Aaron Spelling. |
