90210 (TV series)
On January 13, 2013, the President of The CW Mark Pedowitz stated that though "90210" doesn't have a season 6 renewal in place, the show would most likely be back next year (possibly for the final season if it were to be canceled) due to him being a "big believer in giving fans a very satisfactory conclusion" for a long-running show. However, on February 28, 2013, The CW Entertainment President, Mark Pedowitz, announced that "90210" would end its run after five seasons and 114 episodes.

"Entertainment Weekly"'s Ken Tucker criticized the original tone of "Melrose Place" in a 1992 article, stating that "on this show, everybody's a philosopher—even more unusual, a philosopher with a cute bottom." Despite giving the series a mixed review, he admitted to being "hypnotized by it" and added that ""Melrose" is the guilty pleasure that adds some salt and sweat to summertime TV." The show received an overhaul as it advanced toward its second season, with "TV Guide" citing the "bed-hopping, backstabbing and cliffhangers" as key factors in its success, also noting the arrival of Heather Locklear's Amanda Woodward. In 1994, the series became the No. 2-rated drama among viewers aged 18–34 (behind "Beverly Hills, 90210"), with "People" magazine labeling it a "compulsively watchable, high-trash hit." Locklear and Laura Leighton were nominated for Golden Globe Awards in 1994, with Locklear receiving additional nominations from 1995 through 1997.
