I have been waiting for the final season to be released for ALONG time!! I am so glad that Amazon has it. I am very grateful to the Amazon Customer Service who when my original copy was sent but I never received it they turned around and sent me a new one free of charge. Thank you SO much for that I really appreciate it. I will continue to purchase items from Amazon.com!!!

I love the old 90210 and the last one was as good as the first. The person/company I bought it from had a fast delivery and easy packaging to open!

This was the best show on TV and I never got to see the finale b/c I was in class (& it didn't record, ugh!)....so excited to finally get to see it.

Beverly Hills 90210: Season 10 is the ultimate clique season. I've never quite seen anything like it. Nearly every episode, at least one member of the gang kept stressing the need to stay in Beverly Hills to be with her/his friends, refusing to move out and relocate to somewhere, denying romantic relationships because s/he did not want to sacrifice her/his friends for it, and willing to put friends ahead of anything. That was nauseous for me to watch. Every time a boyfriend/girlfriend was sacrificed for this, they should be quite lucky not to deal with it anymore and just move on. They are way better off this way because once they are friends with one of the gang, they are forced to accept the gang no matter what. What a terrible thought...I must say. As for the rest of the season, I can honestly say that there is absolutely nothing new going on: just the same repeated issues, recycled junk, prolonged maintenance, and useless storylines that were never completely resolved in the end. For example, Dylan's father (I am pretty sure that car bomb killed him) shows up in Dylan's life and yet after a couple of episodes, the whole subplot got dropped without further ado. Similarly, Gina Kincaid...after watching a couple of episodes, I just realized that I've not seen her anymore (she wasn't a memorable character to begin with). Then, all of a sudden, Steve's brother just shows up; that is a while, and this time, I don't even see the other brother. Camille, who was dating David for some episodes, was all heartbroken when David dumped her. I am like, "Really? You want that loser?" If there was a contest for the worst finale of all time, Beverly Hills 90210 wins it hands down. I mean, when the series started and for few years, Donna and David were never the primary characters yet in the end, they get the most attention? Who cares if they got married? I predict divorce for the two because David was a loser in high school, was a loser in college, and is a loser post college. Plus, he controls people. If he can't control people, then he can't win. He married Donna because he was capable of controlling her. Dylan and Kelly...my goodness...who really cares? They have absolutely no chemistry, and it's impossible to see them together. It's just the same story over and over. Quite frankly, all of the characters need to get out of 90210 and really explore the world and at least meet some real people. Steve and Janet, I love that wedding because who showed up for it? That's right: only the members of the 90210 gang minus Brandon (I am surprised about that one, considering that Steve considers him as his best friend. Ditto for the godfather part too.). So...does Janet have friends...? Relatives...? Or anybody else...? Steve...frat friends...? Relatives...? Or anyone at all...? Meanwhile, it is simply difficult or impossible for me to believe that every character is capable of running a business, being a lawyer, or whatever it is that they do because all of the characters have way too much free time on their hands. And then listening to them to have dialogues, they don't even fit the role. The more Donna appears in the episodes, the more I hate the sight of her. I can't believe how much screen time she was getting. Then, there was a trainload of impossibly good looking men that she got the chance to kiss them. Notice in the opening credits. Some episodes will include Joe E. Tata in there, and some omit his name. I never seen anything like it. Back to Dylan, at the rate that he is spending his money, he is heading for bankruptcy. Dylan's method for any problem is his wallet. Brilliant, Dylan. Meanwhile, notice that Dylan received his degree from CU. Hmmm...I don't think he had classes in some seasons ago, so...to get it, he took maybe 6 to 7 classes per semester including the summer for 2 years? I never saw him with books in many episodes. Or he paid for it? Finally, I can't believe it is all over. I've seen every single episode of Beverly Hills 90210 (296 episodes in all), and I nominate it as one of the worst popular shows ever made. It lasted far too long, had gotten way too soap operatic, and was running on fumes for most of the last three seasons (it had become way too Donna-centric). As for the rest of my life, I will never watch a single episode of the show again. In the end, there is a special feature about Goodbyes, and I saw Brenda's face was concealed by a blurry image even though her body is shown. Wow, never seen anything like it either. Many of the long time characters were also omitted in it as well.

Here is a list of top 16 worst characters (1 being the worst of the worst):
1. Felice Martin *gag*
2. Brenda Walsh *double gag*
3. Clare Arnold *triple gag*
4. Valerie Malone *quadruple gag*
5. Gina Kincaid *quintuple gag*
6. David Silver (the biggest loser of the show)
7. Brandon Walsh (the biggest hypocrite of all time)
8. Susan Keats *ugghhh*
9. Andrea Zuckerman *double ugghhh*
10. Colin Robbins (how is prison treating ya?)
11. Ginger LaMonica *blah*
12. Janet Sosna (too snotty)
13. Donna Martin (AWFUL HAIR)
14. Steve Sanders (he has completely turned a boneheaded moron in the last 4 seasons)
15. Noah Hunter (pathetic when drunk)
16. Matt Durning (should have been disbarred a long ago)

Love it, I love that this dvd is available to take me back when I watched it on tv :)

Finally got the Final Season of this great TV sitcom for the late 90s and very please, as usual with the cast and episodes. This seller shipped the product out fast for a good price and I would be happy to order from them again!

For some reason I remembered season 10 being a big step down. I didn't expect to enjoy this set nearly as much I have.
While the presence of certain characters is missed, the new characters introduced in previous seasons were actually built
up well enough to fit in right along 90210 originals Steve, Kelly, Donna, David and Dylan. The only down part of the season is
watching Noah spin out of control again ala David in earlier seasons and Gina leaving a ways before the end never to return. Beyond that it was still very enjoyable and for show's 10th and ending season to be only a notch below what it was at it's peak says a lot. Some classic stuff (Dylan finding his father is alive), and surprises (I forgot a grown up Josie Davis was on several episodes). Definitely worth getting.

Just received my copy of the final season, it was never aired in the UK hope it is great. Why is it not being released in the US at the same time usually it is the UK that has to wait ?

"90210" is one of the best television shows to ever air. I grew up on this show, as a child, teen-ager, and young adult, it taught me quite a few life lessons. I hope with season 10, it will have all of the specials and additional extras to go along with it. I think that would be the perfect ending to wrap-up the DVD seasons. I am eagerly awaiting for the release of the last season.

I just hope (however I highly doubt)that they will have something other than just the eps. Perhaps commentary of somekind or a look back from the cast. What do you guys think?
