The 100th episode of 90210 inspires Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) to throw an impromptu West Beverly Hills High School reunion at the Playboy Mansion, and it looks like Max (Josh Zuckerman) is reveling in the festivities. In this first-look photo from the Dec. 3 episode, obtained exclusively by HollywoodLife.com, Max finds himself surrounded by a bevy of beautiful bunnies — and I’m sure Naomi is just thrilled.

As we previously reported, the 100th episode will also feature a few surprising returns. Annie’s (Shenae Grimes) ex-boyfriend Jasper and cousin Emily will both make appearances for the show’s major milestone — though it’s anyone’s guess what kind of trouble they’ll cause.

Are you as pumped for 90210‘s 100th episode as I am? Drop me a comment with your thoughts and predictions!

The Oct. 11 episode of 90210 served as an hour-long reminder of why I don’t get political: Everybody ends up getting hurt. Or they become prostitutes. Regardless, the gang had a rough go of things this week — and it might be too late for two fan-favorite couples to pick up the pieces.

Teddy (Trevor Donovan) made his triumphant return to Beverly Hills this week, but if he had idea how much drama was waiting for him, he might not have been in such a rush to come back. He bumped into Shane (Ryan Rottman), an old flame from Barcelona, only to discover his uncle was running for Congress against the very politician Shane had sworn his undying allegiance to!

Oh, and did I mention that politician was played by Brandy? Because she was totally played by Brandy. I literally cannot stress that fact enough.

In an ongoing effort to boost her sorority’s profile on campus, Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) decided to help students register to vote — and with a little event-planning assistance from everybody’s favorite cowboy, the “Strip to Vote” party was born! Unsurprisingly, Naomi and Austin (Justin Deeley) did most of the stripping, ultimately finding themselves in an awkward, clothes-less position with Max (Josh Zuckerman.)

Meanwhile, Annie (Shenae Grimes) continued her G-rated escort business — seriously, a sex-less dinner date is not technically prostitution — but this time she brought a new girl into the fold. Yes, Navid’s naughty little sister is now Annie’s partner in Disney-level crime. This is sure to end adorably. Not well, but definitely adorably.

Things also got tense between Liam (Matt Lanter), Jane (Kristina Apgar) and Jane’s zombie husband this week, as a scuffle between the dudes landed pregnant Jane in the hospital. I really hope the baby’s OK. But more importantly, I really hope zombie husband doesn’t start nomming on Liam’s beautiful brain. Who would run the bar?!

Lastly, and certainly most tragic, is what went down between Navid (Michael Steger) and Silver (Jessica Stroup) this week. Silver got back to her intrepid reporter roots — I’m bummed she gave up on that dream, by the way — and found out about Navid’s uncle’s little illegal car ring. But instead of understanding, she basically broke up with him and moved in with Naomi until he gets his life together. Talk about overreacting! I think someone’s off their meds again…

OK, your turn to rant. Do you think Navid and Silver are really donezo? And what about Naomi and Max? Plus, who wants to bet money that Jane’s baby is really Liam’s? Drop a comment with your every ridiculous thought!

Of all the lessons I learned from watching the Oct. 4 episode of 90210, the most valuable was how Liam (Matt Lanter) was able to turn a bar commercial into a Guys Gone Wild shoot in three easy steps: (1) Spill beer (2) Remove shirt (3) Add wind! And I’m glad business picked up, because if pregnant Jane (Kristina Apgar) spent one more day crying in that empty bar, they’d have to rename it “Tears and Beers.”

Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) also learned an important lessons this week: Never trust a cowboy. It turns out Austin (Justin Deeley) was using her to free himself from Holly (Megalyn Echikunwoke), who he was apparently hooking up with. So when her nerd-in-shining-armor Max (Josh Zuckerman) told her he transfered to Caltech to be closer to her, choosing him over Austin — who “tastes like hay,” apparently — was a no-brainer. Naomi will continue to occasionally make out with Austin in her kitchen, but she’s definitely dating Max. I think. Possibly.

Annie (Shenae Grimes) helped sabotage Holly’s (Megalyn Echikunwoke) sorority in the final game, but her victory was short-lived. She was kicked out of the house, and it took about five minutes for her to ask her friend if that whole “escorting” business was still an option. Honestly, sometimes you just gotta throw up your hands and give in to prostitution when it’s the only sensible option. Get it, Annie.

Speaking of the hot mess Wilson family, Dixon’s (Tristan Wilds) nasty little pill addiction took a turn for the awesome this week. After discovering he was fresh out of the good stuff — and really, there is no sketchier place to pop pills than an empty stairwell — he hit up a Charice look-alike on the beach for a little seaside drug deal.

Come to think of it, I’m not entirely sure it wasn’t Charice’s Glee alter ego, Sunshine Corazon. She clearly transferred schools:

And in “I totally called it last week” news, Adrianna (Jessica Lowndes) made a new friend – who turned out to be none other than Jane’s presumed-dead husband! Seriously, the next time I tell you all that someone is going to rise from the sea, you’d better believe me.

What did you think of tonight’s episode? Which guy should Naomi choose? And how excited are you for an epic Dixon breakdown? Drop some comments!

“Let The Games Begin” couldn’t be a more appropriate title for the Oct. 4 episode of 90210, because just as Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) prepares to dominate CU’s annual Greek Games, the men in her life — Austin (Justin Deeley) and Max (Josh Zuckerman) — will also be going head-to-head.

“Austin had no idea Naomi was involved with another guy,” Justin tells HollywoodLife.com. “Once he sees [Max], it becomes, ‘Well, I can’t lose to this guy.’”

I literally lost track of the number of emotional, dramatic speeches made by Liam (Matt Lanter) on the Sept. 27 episode of 90210 — but it’s OK, because he delivered them all with poise, beauty, and perfectly side-swept bangs. Though something tells me Annie (Shenae Grimes) didn’t quite appreciate his speech to her as much as I did, considering it ended with “I’ll always love you…” but we should really break up.

And the night took an even darker turn for Annie when she learned she’s, basically, becoming a prostitute. These super-creepy Turkish guys paid her and her friend to spend the night with them, and since Annie kissed one of them on the dance floor, they technically paid for a sexual favor — though, if you ask me, they didn’t really get their money’s worth.

Side note: Liam’s new lady friend Jane (Kristina Apgar) is with child. But before you freak out, it’s not Liam’s. It belongs to his dead friend — her dead husband — who, honestly, I’m kind of thinking isn’t really dead. Mark my words: He’ll be back, even if he has to crawl out of the sea!

Meanwhile in the business world, Navid (Michael Steger) made some bad, bad choices. When he discovered his uncle was using Shirazi Studios to run a stolen car ring, he could have told his business partners — Dixon (Tristan Wilds) and Silver (Jessica Stroup) — the truth. But no. Instead he canceled Dixon’s meeting with that big-time music producer, Juice Randall, and told Silver he didn’t want to work with her. Navid had better watch his back, too, because Dixon’s popping pills. Like, crazy pills.

And then, of course, there were the sorority wars. Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) paid her way into a dumpy sorority and made the girls over, House Bunny-style, so she’d have an army with which take down Holly (Megalyn Echikunwoke). And despite a few bumps in the road — for one thing, the girls didn’t appreciate Naomi referring to them as “losers” — they agreed to help her

But Holly has an army of her own, and they discovered Naomi’s Achilles heel — Max (Josh Zuckerman)! Methinks the nerd is finally coming back into the picture…

Remember all those really interesting, juicy plot twists that came about at the end of 90210‘s third season — like Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) being pregnant and Annie (Shenae Grimes) inheriting a butt-load of money? I hope you weren’t as into them as I was, because the fourth season premiere pretty much wiped the whole slate clean.

For starters, Annie lost out on her inheritance and had to defer from Carnegie Mellon for a semester. This led her to the hallowed halls of California University — and straight into the arms of Jeremy (Matt Cohen.)

Liam (Matt Lanter) returned from his big fishing expedition, but after Annie turned down TWO of his proposals, her knight in shining side-swept bangs got fed up with her. He sauntered over to a nearby beach bar, got drunk and ended up buying the place for $25,000. (Looks like we’ve got ourselves a new Peach Pit!)

Desperate to get to the top of the CU food chain, Naomi — who is not pregnant — bought herself a big-ass mansion to throw parties at. The downside? Her new pad came equipped with a pot-bellied pig and a smart-mouth cowboy named Austin (Justin Deeley) who also served as the resident pot-grower.

But hey, that’s good news for Naomi’s fellow tenants Ivy (Gillian Zinser) and Raj (Manish Dayal). Sorry, did I forget to mention they live there with her? Because they do.

And speaking of random house guests, Navid’s (Michael Steger) little sister decided to stay in Beverly Hills to finish out her senior year — their mom moved to Switzerland, joining the rest of the show’s parents in whatever black hole they’ve disappeared into — so she’ll be shacking up with them at Silver’s (Jessica Stroup) house this season.

OK, back to Naomi! Her little coming out party started off great — bonfires, shirtless valet workers, etc. — but it quickly went up in flames. Literally. When the cops showed up to bust her for a noise complaint, she tossed Austin’s pot into the bonfire to hide it from them. You can probably guess what happened next: The feds cuffed her and carted her off to jail. Plus, everybody at the party got super-duper high.

But wait, I saved the best (aka most bat-s**t) for last! Everyone’s favorite pill-meddling psychopath Adrianna (Jessica Lowndes) showed up to Naomi’s party and got quite the tongue lashing from our girl Silver. It was something to the effect of “You’re dead to me,” which reminded me of her little tiff with Naomi back in season one. Austin, however, wasn’t quite through with Adrianna. He lent her a sympathetic ear, which obviously led to a sympathetic shirt to wear the morning after.

Ladies and gentlemen, the bitch is back.

OK, your turn to babble: Are you bummed that Naomi isn’t pregnant? Do you think Annie made a mistake turning down Liam’s proposal? And am I the only one waiting for Adrianna to do something crazy? Drop a comment with your thoughts on tonight’s premiere!

Sometimes growing up means having to make difficult choices. And when 90210 returns for its fourth season at 8 p.m. tonight on The CW, Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord) will have to make her most difficult choice yet: Nerd or cowboy? HollywoodLife.com got the scoop on Naomi’s season four suitors — current squeeze Max (Josh Zuckerman) and new wild cowboy Austin (Justin Deeley) — and the “difficult decisions” she’ll have to make this year.

90210‘s third season ended with Naomi’s (AnnaLynne McCord) pregnancy bombshell, so why hasn’t there been a baby — or bump — to speak of in any of the previews for season four? I went straight to Naomi’s suspected baby daddy for the scoop, and while he can’t say if there’ll be “a little Max or a little Naomi on the way,” Josh Zuckerman does confirm the baby drama will leave a lasting impact on the couple.
