010 Karen Rosin - Isn't it Romantic?

This week, The Blaze with Lizzie and Kat gets legit, as we’re joined by Karen Rosin, the writer of this episode of Beverly Hills 90210: “Isn’t it Romantic?” This episode bravely tackles the subject of AIDS, and kicks off the watershed romance between Brenda and Dylan. Karen provides invaluable insights on the scope of both storylines, and more broadly about the series in general.

The original People magazine article about a young woman with AIDS that inspired Karen can be read online here. For more information about HIV/AIDS, from resources about prevention and testing to ways to donate time and money to help others, one place to start is with the AIDS Healthcare Foundation at www.aidshealth.org.
