Season 4 of American television series 90210 aired on the CW television network. This marked the first season where they didn't have Lori Loughlin, Ryan Eggold, and Sara Foster. Due to creative differences, Trevor Donovan was dropped as a regular. He returned as a guest star in the beginning of the season to conclude his storyline. However, in late February 2012, it was reported that Donovan would return near the end of the season. This also marked the final season for Gillian Zinser as Ivy Sullivan as the actress left due to bad contract negotiations.

The CW ordered two additional episodes for the season, which total at 23. It had also been announced that the show got a fifth and final season.

Season four opened to a 0.9 rating in adults 18–49, even with last season premiere. The series returned from its mid-season break on January 17, 2012, one week later than originally announced.
