Primary
Beverly Hills, 90210 is rated as neutral because its primary focus is on the personal and relational challenges of adolescence and young adulthood, addressing social issues through individual character arcs and personal growth rather than promoting a specific political ideology or systemic solutions.

Secondary

The narrative often highlights the positive aspects of the faith and its community, addressing challenges like interfaith relationships with sensitivity.
