In this season, Mitchel Musso's character Oliver Oken becomes a recurring character, and is no longer in the main cast, especially due to Musso preparing for the Disney XD series Pair of Kings. In the season, the Stewarts and Lilly move to a ranch in Malibu. This is the only season of the show to be broadcast in High Definition. The season ended on January 16, 2011 (USA) and May 27, 2011 (UK & Ireland).
The fourth and final season of the series was released on DVD on March 8, 2011.

Production
Disney Channel renewed the series for a fourth season on June 1, 2009 along with a second season for Sonny With a Chance. Production began on January 18, 2010, and ended on May 14, 2010.
Opening sequence
For season four, the opening credits from season three were used with some minor revisions. The names (excluding Mitchel Musso as his character has become a recurring character) appear on a scrolling marquee as one would see on a theater, featuring a different font. The sequence then changes to wide-screen episode clips, in which only season 4 episode clips are included. The same version of the song "The Best of Both Worlds" from Season 3 was used; however, a green screened concert version was used with the Season 3 concert stage for the concert scenes. The creators' names appear in the second to last clip. A new version of the switch from Miley to Hannah is featured in the middle of the theme song, as Miley admires a hug between her and her dad in a clip of Hannah Montana Forever. At the end, the versions of Hannah's "shhh" and "laugh" clips were changed to one clip instead of two separate clips.
