    This is from a teen's perspective, but I really like this show. I am aware that it's not the most unique or has the best plot, but I thought it was perfect for teenagers who like drama. It annoyed my mom, but I know it's a show for 13-18 year olds specifically, and not for the adult crowd.

    This show is so much fun. It always keeps you guessing and forming theories about what happened or what will happen!! There aren't that many shows that are as unpredictable as this one. Definitely would recommend it.

    One of my all time favorite shows on TV! Great acting, great story line, plenty of mystery, and constant twists and turns that keep you wanting more! The writers are brilliant and know how to answer your questions but give you more questions at the same time! It never gets dull or boring and keeps you guessing. You may think you know but you never really do!

    I started watching pretty little liars in December and I can say that I don’t regret it. It’s a very good series. There is a good mix of love, action and mystery. In my opinion the actors and actresses are also very good, they make it come alive. I have nothing but positive things to say about it! So I can really recommend, especially it if you like a little bit of drama now and then.

    I end up watching eight-eleven episodes a day. Seriously, this show completes my everyday life. It has a different story, not just another it's-getting-boring teen series. PLL gave me goosebumps ---- EVERY SCENE. And of course, as a girly-girl teenager, there fashion style is a 'must watch'.

    GODS! My favorite serie, and has reasons for this.

    Not a ReMaker Gossip Girl, is even better. It is a well of secrets every episode, it makes me very nervous.

    -A Is the biggest secret of my life, this is clear.

    It's a good drama, definitely, and phrases of the girls are the best, oh God!

They go throw horrible events such as being kidnapped, almost killed and sometimes betrayed by their own family members. There is also love and other regular teenage things that get complicated when *A* gets involved. This show always has me on the edge of my seat and has blown my mind so many times. When you think you've figured it all out the shows drops a huge plot twist that you never saw coming. I think the actress and actors are amazing and portrays their roles well. Of course many things happen that I don't agree with but all the good and exciting outweighs the bad. I just wish the amount of people dying was lower.… Expand

Based on the novels by Sara Shepard, this show consists of sweet suspense filled with drama, romance, action, and mystery! The four 16 year old girls reunite after the death of their friend and undergo a mission to discover who, or what, has brought them back together again. Their friendship revolves around their friend, Alison, and they face their challenges together, even though secrets are entitled to each individual alone. The mysterious mission to figure out who is watching their every move is sure to have viewers coming back for more! The show teaches a lesson, as well as provides fun entertainment. As the girls start to remember events from the night Alison went missing, it is up to them to tell somebody and risk their life, or keep is secret and obey the texts they receive from "A." When the girls meet new people and start to feel good about their lives, "A" makes sure that the feeling doesn't last by messaging another threat. The dark suspense of the mystery can be frightening, but it is worth watching! The actresses are definitely a strength of the show as their bond as characters is incredible! The only weakness is how they drag the series on and at times do not seem to accomplish much. Overall it is a fun tv show that provides entertainment despite the weakness of its length. The drama allows viewers to create their own perception of what should happen next and leaves room for imagination! I am still coming back for more after 40 episodes. The romance that occurs within the anticipation serves as a great relaxer for the viewers. The series is continuous but extremely unpredictable which is what sets it apart from other shows. If you like a good adrenaline rush from the penetrating suspensful drama, this show is perfect for you! Even though it sounds as if it is a show for women, that is definitely not the case! I got my younger brother hooked on watching it with me after one episode. The suspense, drama secrets, and action never get old and it is sure to only get better as a the series continues!… Expand

    What it lacks in believability, it makes up for in the acting departments, the scripting stakes and the unbelievable twists and turns of the first season. Confusingly plotted and on the verge of becoming terrible, but it never does and damn, it's addictive.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pretty Little Liars is actually a surprisingly good show... as long as you can appreciate the camp of it. It follows four teenagers as they attempt to discover who murdered their friend, as well as who is stalking them and sending them threatening messages. The show can be borderline disturbing at some points but only if you actually think about what's happening to these girls. It's much better than the book series that it's based on and the characters are likable and relatable. One of the surprising gems of the show is the character of Toby who starts out as a creepy, and somewhat unlikable force, but ends up being one of the most interesting, and sympathetic characters. The show is very campy and there are a lot of unintentionally hilarious moments, but that's part of the appeal. This show isn't House M.D or Dexter and it doesn't try to be. It's a fun show, that goes beyond the average summer programming to be surprisingly good. It's easy to get hooked on. The one aspect of this show that is actually not entertaining is the student/teacher relationship between Ezra and Aria. I watched the show online and found myself skipping their scene halfway through the season because they were so unbearable. Thankfully the writers show that they are able to write a decent romance plot when they bring to the forefront any one of Spencer's relationships but in particular her relationship with Toby which deserves recognition for being the most real on the show. All in all Pretty Little Liars is a show that I'd recommend to anybody for some unintentionally hilarious moments, but also for some surprisingly well written, and touching moments which bring this show out of guilty pleasure range to make it simply a good show… Expand

I've been watching from Season 1 and I am still carrying on watching all the season. PLL is really interesting drama show I ever seen. I thought its going to be like holiday or friends program, then after I've watched the episode 1 on season 1 I just realised that it's like horror and threatening show, I haven't still read the novel and I will read the novel after I have finished doing my exams, hopefully. PLL, it's just like The Lying Game. (I'll be talking about the TLG after).

    After I have watched the Season 1, at the first I thought Toby was the 'A' victim but I was wrong, the only think I thought about Toby it's how he looks at the girls and it looked like he was up to something and trying to threaten them after Alison did to him. After Emily was talking to him because she wants to know Jenna, how she's doing, and he wanted to interact with her, but Emily didn't want to. After when she refused not to talk to Toby, I really felt sorry for him.

    In the beginning I knew how Maya was up to and I knew there was something wrong about her, after when she found Alison body. She wanted to know how they feel and how she wants to threatened them after she found the body especially Emily, I felt sorry for her as well.

    'A' Anonymous shouldn't had send the letter to Aria's mum about her father had an affair with a student, where he thought her. It it because, it would make it soo interesting while her mum finds out by herself and she can do whatever she wants.

    I can't believe it Ian was part of 'A' he acted so innocent but after seeing his face on the TV I knew that he was up to something. I think he wanted a revenge on Melisa but I didn't like how Melisa treated Spencer.

    I so adore Ezra and Aria, they both suit together, but aria shouldn't had met Ezra in the beginning and she should have known that Ezra is her teacher. (how hot does Ian Harding is, I had to say!).

    I am so glad that Ian is dead but Jenna should have died instead of Ian it is because Jenna treats them really badly, it wasn't Aria, Spencer, Hannah and Emily fault, she should've blamed on Alison. Everybody knows how Alison treats to other people, she is horrible person to the. She doesn't had done anything like that! blackmailing to everyone and threatening to other people.

    What would you do if you had a friend like Alison?

    Would you tell the police if she's threatening you something you shouldn't had done anything or will you threaten them back? I would if i had a friend like Alison, I wouldn't tell anyone about my family business a matters.    … Expand
