http://eztv.it/tvnews/5980/90210-final-season/
on february 28, 2013 the cw entertainment president, mark pedowitz, announced that 90210 would
not be renewed for a sixth season. the series will air its final episode may 13, 2013.
when the cw announced its pickups, cancellations and renewals for the new season back earlier in the
year. fans of 'beverly hills, 90210' reboot '90210' were concerned that the show wouldn't be picked up
for a sixth season. mark pedowitz, the president of the cw, suggested that along other ill-fated
series 'hart of dixie' and 'nikita' that the show would be coming to an end, talking in january at the
television critics association's winter press tour, saying -
"[i am] a big believer in giving fans a very satisfactory conclusion, should any of the network's long-
running series get axed. it's something that we as a television industry need to do."
the show aired the first block of episodes in it's fifth season as a lead-in for the final season of 'gossip
girl' and was then moved to it's new timeslot of 9pm, making room for 'the carrie diaries' when it
returned in january. the show was given a 22-episode order and it is now believed that one of these
episodes or an additional episode will be a retrospective on the series.
when the show began in 2008, characters from the original 'beverly hills, 90210' series often appeared
as guest stars. these included tori spelling (donna martin) and joe e. tata (nat busschio). the show
was very different to how it is now as it focused on the characters in high school. the teachers of the
school and the characters parents all had their own storylines, something that in later series
disappeared, as the characters grew up and moved on. ratings have dwindled since the changes were
made, the season opened with a million viewers and is currently tallying under 600,000 as well as a
drop in it's demographic of 0.2 percent (from 5.0 to 3.0).
are you sad to see the show come to an end?
