PLL Part Two...The Beginning Of The End!

[AllRoadsLeadBackToRadley]

Thread two started.

Last but one episode tomorrow- excited, but sad at the same time!

Whirlwind I had the same idea! I spent most of the episode (the first time I watched it ) wondering if they were all somehow made infertile in the doll house. Then I remembered Emily had her eggs harvested after the dollhouse. I was quite disappointed....

But not as disappointed as PSW

Interview with Marlene just after the finale. It's very very helpful with the unanswered questions! She answers them, like JK Rowling did with HP!

From Team Sparia to Team Alaria
I can't believe how quickly someone wrote this

Holly Marie Combs has been on fire with her Ezria dislike 😂

Binge watched to 1am last night as DD1 had watched it and was being annoying as she knew!

Thought the evil twin Spencer was a bit well far fetched (but isn't that PLL?) I thought it was Wren but actually wanted it to be Caleb as he is so perfect and fab.

Loved loved loved Mona the best in it by far, I thought the liars were horrid to her always keeping her in the background never really letting her into the gang.

Something that's bothering me a lot: Alex wanted to avenge Charlotte's death. She found out who killed her - Mona. Why didn't she go after Mona then?

I think by that point she had decided that having Spencer's life was more important than anything else.

I absolutely hated the finale. I actually feel mad about it.

I feel torn. There were lots of little bits I loved like drunk wine moms. The AD reveal made sense, and I really liked it when Spencer woke up and thought she was looking in a mirror. However, although I'm slightly glad it wasn't one of the main characters, it still feels a bit like an easy get out. I love Toby, but I was willing AD to be him

What makes you mad SuperBeagle? Unleash the torrent of anger

Fuck it.

Have decided am fed up now..........

What to watch? Who to chat to daily?

I just wanted it to be a real main character with real reasons for doing it other than I want to shag Toby

I feel the same MrsJolly. Mainly what to do but also who to chat to also Toby

I've read all the nonsense, watched the whole 7seasons again thinking yep I know that, yep she's A etc

and Toby

Now royally hacked off-have even watched a fecking romcom!😱😱😱

I hated everything.

The fact that it doesn't tie into any of the previous seasons at all, rendering then pointless (even though they were better).

Absent characters - Mike, Jason, Melissa etc.

Turning Lucas/Jenna into jokes.

How rushed it was.

The accent.

Another bloody twin.

The useless infertility storyline.

Mary Drake in general.

A clear lack of motive, despite their best efforts at conjuring one up.

No explanation for literally anything that has happened ever.

The Addison/friends thing that was corny and predictable.

I could go on. I don't think there was anything about it that I liked.

I thought it was rushed and forced too. And I'm also unhappy about the twin thing. But overall I enjoyed the episode.

I don't get why they bothered with half the stuff in it though (infertility, sex scenes etc) when they could have spent that time making it feel less rushed.

The infertility storyline vaguely made sense for Aria but the sex seemed a bit of a waste of time. I still loved parts it it though

Slightly uneasy about Toby unwittingly having sex with Alex. I know it was a big bit of the storyline but had a discussion with DH about the legal/ethical aspect of it all

I read on FB this morning that apparently Wren was supposed to be AD, but that they couldn't get Julian Morris for long enough to make it happen.

I'm still not over it. I am still extremely angry that I sat up until 1am to watch it on livestream and it was a fucking British twin

And they turned Wren into a fucking diamond. What a waste of a great character

I really wanted it to be Caleb or Toby - that would have been suitably heartbreaking

PLL was my little Wednesday thing and I am bereft; I keep making comparisons to Gossip Girl and how at least the writers kept some sort of consistency

CantHelp You summed up my thoughts.

I think I would've preferred just about any other character to be A, and there's no reason they couldn't have done it. Toby, Caleb, JENNA (no one suspected her, yet she's been there from the start, has been shady, and has a motive!), Jason, Melissa etc. all would've made fantastic ADs.

Previously my most disappointing show ending was One Tree Hill, but this has well and truly taken the cake and eaten it.

Virtual hug of commiseration SuperBeagle

Super it's actually taken me a few days to come round to even speaking about it - and I know how sad that is but with a toddler in the house it was my little weekly escape with a cup of tea and Jammy Dodgers

Jenna had so much potential; what a woman 😂..hot, a bitch and suspicious as fuck. But when you think of the last seasons - she's never really amounted to much. Melissa too. They could have made something out of Maya, Paige and Jason

I'm very fucking gutted we didn't get more Wren and Jason time - I understand they had commitments to other shows but it's still making me irrationally angry

Cant, my DH asked me this morning if I'd recovered from my disappointment. I think he was sorry he asked as it gave me the opportunity to launch into another tirade about it. 😂

So much they could've done. I had low expectations, but thought that even if I didn't like who AD was, I would enjoy the reveal and episode in general. But I thought the whole thing was a mess. Gone are the days of bomb A reveals (Mona's) and relatively well executed ones that at least gave details and left a trail of clues in preceding episodes (Charlotte's).

Super you are my person

I think they set the bar so high with Charlotte's reveal - and they backed up the story properly, even if we were a tad fucked off that odd and boring CeCe was A - we got the ends tied up with the background story

I wanna know how British CUNT Spencer managed to build a prison/alternate world - in secret and in such a short space of time?

I liked Mary Drake, even if she confused me a bit at the end. Everyone loves Mona - Mona won the entire series, but I still feel so empty 😂 like I need more..I need a proper ending that shows us how Toby and Caleb joined together to ruin the girls lives

I also felt unattached to the girls by the end of the season. I think they'd just taken everything too far and the likes of Hannah and Spencer had outgrown the show. Alison was a strange character - zero chemistry with Emily, and Aria and oddball just grated on me

Massive fan of the mothers - would have liked to see more of Pam, but Ashley, Veronica and Ella are just fantastic and they always appeared to have such a good time on the show, hard to describe but they just seemed very at ease with their roles
