Douglas Emerson (born October 5, 1974) is an American actor who played Scott Scanlon on Beverly Hills 90210 in the show's first and second seasons and played Eddie Beckner in The Blob.

Scott was a nerdy freshman and best friends with David Silver, played by Brian Austin Green. As David became increasingly close with the show's core popular group, however, the Scott-David friendship suffered. In the second season, Emerson was no longer a full-time character but only a special guest star. His character killed himself at his birthday party, when he twirled a gun around and accidentally shot himself as David looked on in horror.

He gave up acting to join the military. In 2002, he was a staff sergeant in the U.S. Air Force and was assigned to Holloman AFB in New Mexico.

Emerson now works for a company called Home Alliance, for which he manages properties that are rent-to-own.
