Okay, it’s been quite long. So that gave me a buttload of time to catch up on Supernatural and HOLY SHET SEASON 6. Just WOAH. Only problem- CAS IS IN LIKE 4 EPISODES COME ON PEOPLE.
So recently, Nithya started watching Supernatural, as I’ve been requesting (okay fine, demanding) her to for a few months. And I’m pretty sure she likes it, but it’s not her kind of show. So in return, she’s gonna make me start watching Pretty Little Liars.
And if you know me- not even well, if you just know me- I love hating on Pretty Little Liars, and basically most shows of the genre.
Because I prefer a TARDIS than whatever weird city they live in, okay? Okay.
See what I did there? *NOT SO SUBTLY WINKS*
Anywho, that’s why we’ve started THE PLL AND SPN EXPERIMENT THINGY MAJINGY THING.
Nithya:
HEY I WATCH SHERLOCK I'M PRETTY AWESOME G. AND I STOPPED WATCHING PLL :( :P YOU HAVE TEN MINUTES IN THE PIT OF TARDIC SHAME. IDK.
^”TARDIC" SHAME. Sigh.
Mansi’s PLL Review (Ep. 1, Season 1)
So I watched the first episode of Pretty Little Liars. While doing algebra. I bet you can guess which was more interesting.
No but really, I was doing algebra while watching it, because the episode didn’t require concentration to understand.
So keep reading to see my (sarcastic) predictions of all the shiz that goes on in this show. And brace yourselves, this is gonna be long.
Maybe it was the fact that society has shoved un-required PLL knowledge down my throat without my consent, or the fact that I just HATE. THE. STUPID. GENRE, the first two episodes were boring as heck. Okay there were some extremely suspenseful, nerve wracking points like when Aria (or is it Areeya\Ariya\Awriya\Aureya\Awre- Okay I’ll stop now.) met that English teacher guy at the bar. Is he an alien? Is he gonna scheme to take over planet Earth? Oh wait no he just likes her. Because it’s not like she’s really pretty or anything.
Okay enough with the sarcasm. I’m gonna do the rest of the review (and review the rest of the season, if I make it that far) in a completely unbiased manner. I can’t believe I actually just typed that.
So. Let’s start with the town. Rosepark, amirite? Lemme go Google it.
*after 15 seconds*
Damn. ’Twas Rosewood. I was close, right? For the record, whenever someone mentioned it, I was probably solving a quadratic equation. But whatever. Let’s continue.
So from the beginning. They decide to start with some false suspense- the part when Alison scares the other girls in her shed sleepover thingy. It’s not uncommon to do that, they do it tons in scary movies and shiz. Maybe it’s just a thing you’re expected to do in the genre. Of stupid. Sorry, time for unbiasedness again. *exhales* Deep breaths, deep breaths.
And then there’s the “OH NO SPENCER AND ALI ARE MISSING” thing, and Spencer thinks she heard someone scream, yada yada yada. And we don’t see Ali again. Because she’s “missing”.
*Breif little side note*
Due to the fact that a lot of people I know watch and worship this show, I pretty much know about most of the plot twist thingys. You know (HUGE SPOILERS AHEAD) about Ezra doing the creepy photo thing, and how Ali has a twin (great, there goes the first season), and how A has a boss (red coat, right?), and Ravenswood, and all that stuff. But there’re still a lot of plot holes in the info that I have, so may be I don’t know it all. I hope.
And everyone goes their separate ways, and a year later (I think it’s a year, but I know it’s exactly on the anniversary of Ali’s disappearance) Aria comes back to the town. And then there’s the whole thing with the dad, and his “secret”. Come on, there’s no huge “secret”, he’s obviously cheating on the mom… (and for the record I predicted that before watching the rest of the episode).
And then she meets Ezra, all dreamy and stuff in the bar. They talk, be obscure, and kiss and that scene is done.
Then there’s the scene to introduce the other two Pliars, (Pretty Little Liars, get it? Hehe.), Hanna (the blonde theif), her friend, Mona (pretty sure she’s not main, but I think she becomes important in future seasons), and Spencer….? I think. I’m bad with names. Whatever, it’s just one of those “it’s been so long let’s show the viewer what the others are doing and put them in a perfect situation where two (or more, if the director’s feeling ambitious) of them meet magically and catch up and give them a situation to completely define their characters” scenes.
That’s followed by more obscurity by the father while dropping Aria (or is it Areeya\Ariya\Awriya\Aureya\Awre- Okay I’ll stop now, for real.) for school and she has that weird flashback scene with the dad when I was like HELL YEAH when I found out my prediction about the dad was right.
And then Aria gets the 411 from Spencer\Emily (they kinda look the same, okay!) about how everyone exploded after Alison left and Hanna and Mona became SO FANCY YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW-OW and became the new Regina’s in town. And I was just like SIGH.
And now for the first appearance of A. At least the first textual appearance of A. So A finds out about Ezra and Aria and texts her about it. OOOHH I WONDER HOW SHE KNEW?
So basically, Emily’s mom is really annoying, and someone moved into Alison’s house, and her name’s Maya or something. And she gets Emily on drugs. Well that escalated quickly.
And Spencer’s sister is annoying and her fiancé isn’t. The fiancé and Melissa move into the HAUNTED SLEEPOVER BARN that Spencer was going to move into. OOOHHH MELISSA GUUURRRLLL YOU DID NAWT!
I swear my skin just became white for a second.
Oh yeah, and now the Wren guy likes Spencer? Damn this show’s messed up. Then there’s more unnecessary Ezra and Aria.
Emily spills her emotions of Alison’s stuff getting thrown out, and blah blah blah. Then she gets a note from A that has something to do with Maya (I think they kiss or something I dunno).
More crap about Aria’s parents’ horrible marriage, then we get a somewhat interesting scene with Spencer getting an email from A.
You know what? Imma stop here. I think you get my point. The pilot was bearable, as you know because I watched the next 11 episodes.
Verdict?
I’m going to continue this show. At least the first season.
