90210

When 90210 (FINALLY!) returns with a new episode on March 9, viewers can look forward to the following plot developments on "Rats & Heroes."

• Naomi returns from St. Bart’s and heats things up with Liam;
• Adrianna and Gia grow closer than ever;
• The love triangle between Dixon, Silver and Teddy escalates;
• Navid's plan to get rid of Jasper doesn't go well;
• Debbie confronts Kelly over her crush on Harry.

As you get a sneak peek at scenes from the episode below, remember: that trench coat Naomi is wearing won't remain on her body for very long...

As we inch closer to the March 9 return of 90210, The CW continues to release trailers hyping new episodes of this series.

Yesterday, we posted a video that depicted a couple upcoming scenes, but none were as notable as the sexy shenanigans previewed below.

We'll let viewers discover these for themselves. Let's just say that Liam will be quite the lucky fella when 90210 comes back to the air...

The CW has announced early renewals for five shows. They are:

• 90210
• Gossip Girl
• The Vampire Diaries
• America's Next Top Model
• Supernatural

Considering their ratings and popularity, none of these are a major surprise.

Supernatural creator Eric Kripke has said in the past that he wrote the show with a five-season arc in mind, but rumblings over the past month or so have made it clear he's up for a sixth season. He's now gotten his wish.

Following these pick-ups, fans of other CW dramas on the bubble - such as Melrose Place and Life Unexpected - will need to wait a bit longer before learning the second season fates of their shows.

** UPDATE: Kripke actually appears to be out as showrunner on Supernatural. We'll have more on this news as it develops.

While it seems like 90210 hasn't air a new episode in years, the show has at least revealed some exciting casting news (Diego Boneta!) and some disturbing hook-up possibilities (Liam and Annie?!?) over the last few weeks.

Now, The CW has released a new promo that depicts a couple scenes from the show's spring season.

90210 finally returns on March 9 and, based on the trailer below, upcoming installments will feature:

• Navid calling out Adrianna for her promiscuous ways.
• Naomi taking down Ivy... literally.
• Silver shoving her tongue down Teddy's throat.

As you count down the days until this show returns, and review a few 90210 spoilers to see what's ahead, check out the official preview below:

90210 fans may need to wait until March 9 for a new episode, but at least they have a pair of intriguing spoilers to consider.

According to Michael Ausiello's latest column, Annie will be involved in two major storylines when 90210 finally returns to The CW:

1. The character's hit-and-run story will conclude, in a surprising way, in the season finale.
2. When Liam and Naomi run into trouble, the former will turn to Annie for support.

That's all the information we have on the rumors at the moment.

Do you wanna see a Liam and Annie hook-up, which has never taken place, despite Naomi's long-held belief to the contrary for most of season two?

Finally, 90210 casting news that involves someone coming to the show.

Over the last few weeks, we've learned that Jennie Garth and Rob Estes would not be returning for season three. But Diego Boneta is going in the opposite direction:

The pop singer is coming aboard for a recurring role as Javier, a young musician that appears in multiple episodes this May. Look for the character to have a fling with Adrianna... who joins an all-girl band!

As first reported by TV Guide, this will mark Boneta's first high-profile acting gig in the States.

The singer has been nominated for Latin MTV Awards and Latin Grammys. He's also opened for Hilary Duff on tour.

What do you think of this casting move?

Both The CW and Rob Estes himself have confirmed that the actor is leaving 90210 after the conclusion of season two.

This comes as a shock to fans, as Harry never settled into an ongoing, interesting storyline, but still played a vital role on the show as principal of West Beverly and father to Annie and Dixon.

Because it doesn't sound as though 90210 will replace Estes with a new actor, the question lingers: how will he be written out?

Consider the options below; vote; and then leave a comment and/or post in our 90210 forum about how you'd depict Harry's exit...

First, Jennie Garth said goodbye.

Now, in far more unexpected casting news, Rob Estes is also out of 90210.

"Rob won’t be on the show next season,” a show insider told RadarOnline.com. "The producers, the studio and Rob came to the conclusion together that his role had ran its course. There just wasn’t enough for Rob to do because the show is more about the kids.”

That's true... but there must be more to this story. After all, Estes portrays the school principal and the father to two of the main characters. There are plenty of storylines in which he's been at least somewhat involved.

As you might expect, another source says the problem comes down to money.

“Rob’s an experienced actor and feels he deserves to be compensated accordingly," this source said. "But the CW just wants to cut costs and they want to reward all these young (and therefore cheaper) actors and actresses instead."

It's unclear at this time if Estes will be around when the series returns with new episodes on March 9. It sounds like writers will be scrambling to find a way to write him out for next season, but it won't be easy given his character's role on the show.

Will Harry and Deb get divorced? Will Harry get fired and move away? Might the series replace Estes with a different actor?

** UPDATE: Estes will complete work on season two and then leave the show. He's released the following statement:

"This is my final season on "90210" and I wish the show, cast and crew nothing but the best. I am looking forward to spending time with my kids and exploring other opportunities."

At last night's Golden Globe Awards, Jennie Garth walked the red carpet.

When asked about her status on 90210, the actress said she was done filming scenes as Kelly Taylor. She's taking time away from acting to focus on writing a children's book and starting an unspecific project with husband Peter Facinelli.

Kelly hasn't been involved in a storyline in some time. Debbie has taken exception to Harry's relationship with his co-worker over the last few weeks, but Garth made it clear awhile ago that she wouldn't let her character be involved in an affair.

It's unclear if 90210 viewers will ever see Kelly again.

The show doesn't return until March 9, and Garth may have meant she was simply done filming new scenes, yet will still appear in some that have already been shot. Guess we'll need to tune in and find out.

Will you miss Kelly on the show? Sound off now in our 90210 forum!

We apologize for the recent lack of 90210 news these days, fans, but there's an unfortunate reason why all is quiet on this show's set:

It doesn't return with new episodes until March 9.

Fortunately, The CW has released the following piece of casting information to keep viewers buzzing: Ryan O’Neal is coming on board the series as Teddy's movie star father. He'll appear in multiple episodes and debut in April.

On the small screen, O’Neal has most recently been seen as Brennan's dad on Bones. Do you approve of this selection?
