The character of Andrea should have gone to another actress. Hear me out. Imagine a different actress insert your choice mine could be ( Kerri Russell, Diane Franklin, Jennifer Connelly, Ami Dolenz, Amanda Petersen) Still the same character. Super smart, not into fashion, so focused on excelling in school, Brandon still ignoring her... The actress is dressed the same, glasses, no makeup... so that we can give Andrea a makeover/Glowup either in season 3 or the first episode of 4 and Brandon is lusting after her and she is over his BS ... Man that would have been good. Gabrielle is a great actress but when she took her glasses off it wasn't like a She's out of Control or even Clark Kent/ Superman change. She still just looked like an English teacher.

Are Donna's parents loosely based on Tori Spellings parents (personality wise)? Candy gives me the same vibe as Felice and John seemed pretty mellow like Aaron.
