Hey, stalkers! Welcome back to my blog. I guess I can confirm that I will not be doing that series that I talked about, because, frankly, I don't have time, and I've lost interest. I'm a teenager, I can do that. However, I am going to tell you about one of my all time favorite shows, Pretty Little Liars. Now, this show is really notorious for having insane finales. Last summer, the midseason finale ended with Hanna getting hit by a car. Last season ended with Ian getting pushed off of a bell tower and falling to his death after trying to murder Spencer, only to have his body disappear when the police arrive. This season wasn't intense. It wasn't scary. It was suspenseful at best, but the writers just had to make A ruin their lives. And then they got arrested for Ali's murder, because A planted the murder weapon on them. And then I'm pretty sure you discover that Garrett and Jenna killed Ali, and made sure that the only witness, Jason, had a total blackout, drugs or something, and never remembered.
Spencer had to break up with her boyfriend, Toby, the first guy who she really clicked with without complications. (By complications, I mean this was the first guy she didn't steal from her older sister.) And Toby loved her too. And then you had to throw in Wren (Spencer's almost brother-in-law, who Melissa dumped after catching him and Spencer making out). Seriously, what is his deal? He kisses her less than ten minutes after she dumps the love of her life, simply on impulse? What kind of person does that, if his intentions are really pure? He seems to really care for her, and then he just plants one on her when she's hurting? That's like kicking an unarmed man when he's down - you just don't do it. The only good scene in the entire episode was when Toby came to the police station to see Spencer. As the cops dragged him away he was screaming "I love you, Spencer! I love you! Spencer! Spencer!" I usually don't crush on actors who can't sing, but he might have to join Mr. DiCaprio as an exeption.
And Hanna had to break up her father's wedding. In front of everyone. She had to tell Isabelle that her dad and mom slept together one night when they were both tipsy. And then ruin her dad's life after their relationship finally worked itself out.
And Aria had to blackmail Jackie, her boyfriend's ex-fiance. Which totally turned around, because Jackie ends up blackmailing her instead, because - oh yeah, you forgot that your relationship with your English teacher is ILLEGAL. I don't care how much you love each other, you don't blackmail the one person who will call the cops without hesitation. I really loved Ezra and Ella's conversation, though. She confronted him about his relationship with Spencer, Ezra confessed his love for Ella's daughter, and they both had no friggin clue they were talking about two different girls. It amused me.
Emily had the weirdest storyline of all. A didn't give her a job to do. She and Myah agreed to just be friends, and then she got trapped in a barn and nearly died of methane intake from a running car. She had a vision of Ali before her friends found her.
And on top of all that Dr. Sullivan was let go at the end of the episode. A never buried her alive. Which is why the cops found the girls with the murder weapon, digging up a giant doll.
I have to say though, the back and forth storyline between the present and the past leading up to the present was interesting. It was kind of neat. Like you were given the beginning and the end and you were working your way to the middle. But aside from the presentation of the storyline, the story itself went in all kinds of crazy directions and misdirections and it wasn't nearly as enjoyable as I thought. It would have worked so much better as a season premire. So much better.
I think I'm gonna attach a video to this post instead of pictures, that way you can see the only two enjoyable scenes in the episode, plus when Spencer and Toby broke up, because the acting in that scene is insane.
So, watch these if you feel like it, and join me again next time at HOMPLOP, dearest stalkers!
Lots of Love,
