Do you watch Monday nights on ABC Family? Come talk! *POSSIBLE SPOILERS*

kristan1022

What ABC Family shows do you watch? How long have you watched? What did you think of this week's episode?

kristan1022

elidellio- I don't watch Switched at Birth... I wanted to start watching it but I've never been able to catch when they're doing one of those all-day marathons so I can catch up!

Julie- I LOVE PLL, and I think you would really like The Lying Game. Although it's not the most wonderfully written show, I also like Jane by Design... I feel like I'm addicted to TV for teenagers

This week's PLL was pretty good, yay for plot twists! But I was really mad last week- all we found out is that Lucas is bad at gambling? Boo! I know they can't come right out and say "This is A" but SERIOUSLY we need some progress toward figuring out who it is... this whole "everyone is a suspect but it's actually not anyone you think it is" thing has gotten a little played out.

Confession: cried a little when Toby and Spencer broke up... he just looked so hurt and sad But I totally knew Ezra and Aria would get back together, they're totally meant for each other.

Anyone else wondering what secret that new kid is keeping?? I'm very ready for next week's episode- looks like things are getting pretty intense!

I didn't really cry when Toby and Spencer broke up but I cried a little when Ezra and Aria got back together and I agree that the new guy is a little shady. 

I've read all the books for PLL so far (June is too far away!!!!), so I'm wondering if they're going to follow the books a little here or take off.  BTW, Caleb is not a character in the books at all but SS said that she may right him in. 

The Lying Game--last night's episode was so-so until the end.  Bill literally yelled out, "I hope Sutton dies."

<div>LMAO! Yeah, The Lying Game got good at the end- so who's their mom?? My money's on Rebecca, for sure.</div><div>
</div><div>I don't know if I've read the most recent PLL book, I read them all on my last semester break and did a ton of school reading since then, so I'll have to check. I'm pretty sure the last one I read was the one with the fire at the lake house and they thought Ali/evil twin was dead... I think.</div>

That was supposed to be the last one but she came out with two more.  A third one comes out in June.  The third Lying Game comes out in less than three weeks.

Yeah, I need to catch up on my reading for sure. It's always interesting to see how the show diverts from the books. I adored the books, don't get me wrong, but I think I like PLL as a show better.

I agree.  Their obsession over material things doesn't shine as much in the show and I liked that they talked about Hannah's mom having a hard time financially.  I in no way condone what she did, but I'm glad she didn't get into trouble and I'm glad that she outed that other guy as an imposter.

<div>For sure! I think it's so easy for these shows to gloss over the difficult things, but portraying Hanna's mom having a financial difficulty in the midst of possibly the worst recession of our generation is something younger teens/young adults need to see.</div><div>

Are you flippin' kidding me?  I thought there was one.  That's the only reason for me to live for the rest of this week.  BARACK OBAMA RUINED ALL TV FOR THE WHOLE WEEK WITH HIS STUPID SPEECH. 

juliebug1997

I am now so mad about this, I think I should flip tables. 

kristan1022

Do it, cause a scene! Yeah I was double checking my DVR to make sure everything was set to record this week and tonight they're reshowing an old episode... I can't even see which one right now because apparently the power at our house went out at some point during the storms last night or this morning
