THE SEASON<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Plot Outline: <\/b>Say goodbye to \u201c90210\u201d, the zip code with more money, drama, and passion that any other. This enticing fifth and final season brings shocking new challenges to the wealthy and beautiful Angelenos we\u2019ve followed since high school.<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: <\/b>This final season features some decent drama though in \u201c90210\u201d<\/b> fashion, it does get a bit ridiculous and many times, heavy-handed. Still, the actors aren\u2019t bad and, of course with the ladies, gorgeous looking with Shenae Grimes and Jessica Stroup leading the pack. However, it is uneven where for every OK episode there are a few that aren\u2019t and it\u2019s easy to see how the show lost interest and was cancelled.<\/p>\n

Episodes:
<\/b>1. Til Death Do Us Part
2. The Sea Change
3. It\u2019s All Fun and Games
4. Hate 2 Love
5. The Con
6. 99 Problems
7. 902-100
8. The Things We Do For Love
9. Misery Loves Company
10. We\u2019re Not in Kansas Anymore
11. Here Comes Honey Bye Bye
12. #realness
13. Brother From Another Mother
14. Strange Brew
15. Life\u2019s a Beach
16. Dude, Where\u2019s My Husband?
17. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Call Girl
18. The Empire State Strikes Back
19. You Can\u2019t Win \u2018Em All
20. Scandal Royale
21. We All Fall Down<\/p>\n
