Just get her on the freaking show already!

This is what many of you 90210 fans may be thinking, as reports are breaking today that Tori Spelling is thisclose to making her way to the CW's revisit of the famous ZIP code.

We reported about a month ago that Tori is back in talks to reprise her role of Donna Martin, and now a CW spokesperson confirms that she is in "final negotiations."

So what is taking so long and when will she appear?

Sources who work on the show tell me that Tori has been in talks since October to come on the show, and finally, it looks as though it is happening.

According to these insiders, Tori will most likely appear in the 19th episode of the current season.  The show's writers and producers have carved out her storyline; however, it has not yet been finalized because the network needs to sign off on it. That is expected to happen this week.

Tori was supposed to come onto 90210 in the beginning of the season, but she delayed and ultimately canceled her guest stint amid reports that she wanted equal pay with her fellow OG 90210 alumnae, Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth.

Are you happy to have Tori back in Bev Hills? What are you hoping Donna will be doing?
