Main characters
Brandon Walsh
Jason Priestley plays the character of Brandon Andrew Walsh (main, seasons 1–9; archive footage, season 10). After Walsh's initial difficulties fitting into Beverly Hills, he soon settles down. In Season One, after one of his drinks was spiked at a party, he briefly experienced a drinking problem, which led to a car accident and a night in jail. In Season 3, Brandon developed a serious gambling problem, which led to Nat, his boss at the Peach Pit, bailing him out after he got into trouble with a mobster bookmaker. Throughout the entire series, Brandon was involved in various journalism projects, from sports editor and co-chief of the Beverly Blaze in high school to co-editor of the CU Condor, a brief stint as news director at CUTV, and a year as student-body president (sophomore year). After graduation from college, he and his friend Steve spent a year developing the Beverly Beat. He finally accepted a position with the Washington, D.C., bureau of the New York Chronicle. He was the person many turned to when in trouble — Donna's expulsion from high school, Brenda's many problems, Kelly's drug problem, Andrea's getting into Yale, Valerie's suicide attempt, Ray's lawsuit against Joe, Steve's constant stunts, and even Dylan's battle with drugs and alcohol and the murder of his wife.
