He looks older because he suffered severe injuries to his face, spine and feet after his racing accident in 2003. He looked great after the crash but just like Mark Hamil post accident. His features were altered somewhat. I think he ‘s a great person and looks just fine. People change with age.

Wait for what? I will be 50 this year and obviously look way different to what I did 35 years ago. In another 35 years time, I will obviously look different to how I look today. That’s not rocket science. You must have misunderstood my original comment. I think Jason Priestly looks GREAT, and it’s good to see that someone in that industry hasn’t undergone plastic surgery to try and look “better” or more youthful. I’m not sure what that has to do with how I will look in 35 years, though.

Good to see Jason as a grown man and how he has matured. I worked with Jason in the mid 1980's and on some occasions it was my job on the production to drive him back and forth to work from his home in North Vancouver to the studio or set. He was cutting his acting teeth on a Vancouver Television series called "Danger Bay". I'm not much of a TV person but saw this "spot" on the news. From this short interview I have a feeling Jason turned out to be a great person and he appears very grounded. All of this considering the negative influences of that industry and Hollywood, he has beat the system but it doesn't always turn out that way. Glad I saw this.....

@nonni139 Год назад

I had to wait 3 years, before 90210 came to the northeast. No WB Channel. Did not disappoint, when I saw my first episode in Salt Lake City. There was a lot of buzz, even in places that didn't carry the show. First time I saw the cast was on a morning talk show, and they ran the beginning credits and I remember thinking, hm, looks like something really interesting. I think everyone, who was into the show, wanted to see Priestley, as an older guy, saying he 'was waiting for the phone to ring,' because you could kinda tell it was going to happen. He looked smart enough to know that it might happen, too. Anyway. That show was pretty awesome. Really liked it. I liked it probably as much as I liked 'the Brady Bunch,' when I was 8. Um. For me, the show lost its way, when they went to college. I stopped watching, but memories are very vivid.

he had a pretty bad race car accident about 20 years ago and almost died. He's had a lot of reconstructive surgery to fix his body and his face. This type of surgery affects the way you'll age.
