A.D. has finally been revealed! Pretty Little Liars creator Marlene King is here to answer all of your questions! - Розваги
I wish everything would have connected from the pilot!
Aubrey D I know it technically doesn't, but if you try you can actually connect it pretty easily. Like ally has a picture in her room in the beginning that is about having a twin and there is a lot that can link it. I wish more was explained in the finale, but I enjoyed it anyway
Lol well that's something that almost nobody can do...To connect 7 years of 20 episodes and everything something almost impossible lol
John Howardz Not really.... Marlene knew there was going to be a twin from beginning, because she still wanted to incorporate something from the book. So actually she could of just incorporate the twin theory from the beginning though of course not giving away who it actually was. But I still enjoyed it.
i agree, but i feel like fans would have enjoyed like idk 4 seasons of a well thought out story that was actually planned from the beginning and that explained everything more than 7 seasons of an unconnected mess
But Marlene already had incorporated twins with Mary and Jessica....another set, especially as AD, really reads as lazy and repetitive; especially when there were so many other clues and storylines and characters fans knew who had been developed and were ripe for the picking as way more credible AD's. I mean you can't start the show off as a group mystery and then make the ultimate mystery reveal have absolutely nothing to do with them. The problem with the Twincer = Alex Drake reveal is that you could literally strip away every other one of the PLL's finale story-arcs and the ending wouldn't change. If the heart of the show is a group of friends, its unbalanced writing that the resolution has something to do only with an individual. It was a poor choice with all of the other potential set-up from season 1 - 7 to make this the grand finale.
Season 1 - Spencer has one sister. Season 7 - Spencer has 1 full sister, 3 half siblings and 1 cousin. Come on Marlene.
Nia Blue 😂😂😂
True
Yes charlotte is her full blooded sister '
Charlotte is a drake
And a twin
if you have a show finale and still have to answer SO MANY questions in interviews later on, then you did something wrong
Spoby hadn't earned a reunion, whatttttttttt?! Bullshit! They suffered the most and they deserved it the most to be together !Finally!
She had no idea
Mona killed cece. Why didn't A.D do anything to mona?
S J god knows😂😂😂
S J wren was suppose to kill her
Wren was supposed to kill her but he ended up agreeing with her
she broke mary out of prison in exchange
S J ads wanted to avenge ceces death but she thought it was one of the girls not Moana
I really wish the interviewers would have pressed Marlene on the plot holes. She doesn't just get to explain away that error with Toby's age by saying they had to use young actors. The fans seem to recall more about her own show than she does. In one of the first scenes with Toby and Emily, he is standing outside (as a TEENAGER) telling Emily that it's been 2 years since his mom died. And, in order for that to be true, CeCe would have been in her early 20s when Marion died.
Also, I've seen some comments where people think Wren was just guilty of falling for the wrong girl but that's not true. Actually, Wren was guilty of a LOT more and Marlene & Co. are forgetful and must think the fans are too! :( This finale did not explain Wren's involvement with CeCe other than how he found Alex for her. Think back to the time that Mona was in Radley. Wren was authorizing visitor's passes for CeCe, making shady phone calls to CeCe, manipulating Hana into visiting Mona and talking to the board to keep her at Radley, and manipulating Veronica into confronting Mona in Radley and, ultimately, getting Veronica thrown off of Ashley Marin's case. What was the connection between Wren and CeCe? It had to be more than Melissa asking him to help her visit Mona.
I think Marlene messed up this timeline too. Last night, we found out that Charlotte met Alex via Wren when she fled to France in her Vivian Darkbloom disguise. Didn't Charlotte leave the country using Ali's fake passport that she gave her when the girls were at The Fitzgerald Theatre? (i.e. before Shanna died and before Ali finally returned to Rosewood) Well, Melissa and Wren were in London and together at this time. (Shana had packed up Wren's belongings.) Alex said that once she met Wren and Charlotte, the four of them (Wren, Alex, Charlotte, and Dunhill) spent every day together in Paris for a long time and were inseparable. How is this possible when he was still dating Melissa but Alex said he was free and clear of her and she was dating some composer?! The only times we've been aware of Wren and Melissa breaking up have been 1) when she caught him kissing Spencer;
and 2) during the 5-year time jump when Melissa said Charlotte called Wren from Welby and told him things she shouldn't have (i.e. that she buried Bethany).
The next time Marlene creates a show she should hire diehard fans to keep reminding her of the past storylines so there are no mistakes.
Dolphin517 👌👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤💘
Dolphin517 But Wren and Melissa weren't together when he met Alex, when Melissa met Hanna in London Melissa told Hanna that Wren and her weren't together anymore..
EmelieEllie but Dolphin517 is right, in the scene when Cece meets Alex in the airport it has to be between season 4 and 5 when Cece left as Vivian Darkbloom and Wren and Melissa were supposedly together then. In season 5 Spencer goes to London and stays were Wren and Melissa live, Cece returns and then it's the dollhouse and her A reveal in season 6A she stays as a patient under the care of Archer Dunhill her lover. In between. those 5 years that passed before 6B Hanna sees Melissa and that's when she claims Wren and her broke up. So it was implied before that Wren and Melissa would have been together for several years without counting the first time they dated but with the Alex storyline that makes no sense at all, unless Melissa was involved in some way, that Wren had cheated her all the time with Alex and she didn't notice or that they were never together and she lied about it.
also, didn't Spencer go to London to interview at Oxford in season 5 and Melissa and Wren were still together then? She had blood in her bag at the interview
nirvanessa, Thank you very much for clearing that up for EmelieEllie. ;)
When they asked Marlene about why Alex wasn't mad at Mona, her answer didn't make sense. The game ended because Alex found out that Mona killed Charlotte, so yes Alex did know. After she found out she wasn't upset with Mona, and I think that's what the interviewer was trying to ask about.
Exactly my thoughts....Marlene missunderstood that question and the hosts were confused I guess!lol
Diamond Hamilton maybe Wren was supposed to kill Mona at the beginning
Radina Yea he was. Mona said that he didn't kill her because she offered to join the a.d team.
Diamond Hamilton I think Alex had "bigger" things to worry about like she needed to figure out how to become Spencer and I also believe that instead of killing Mona she could use her to get what she wants. Alex knew how powerful Mona was and having her on her side was better than to have Mona dead. Also I think A.D somehow connected with Mona I mean they're both crazy 😂 If it would have been one of the girls that killed Cece I don't think Alex would have been very understanding and she probably would have killed whoever killed Cece.. But as I said Mona was better alive and Alex could take advantage of the fact that Mona is crazy and wants to win the game. What Alex probably didn't realized was that although Mona is crazy and would do anything to win the game, her loyalty towards Hanna and her longing to be a part off the girls are strong. So yeah, it would have been better if Alex actually would have killed Mona since she wasn't loyal to Alex in the end and locked her up 😂
She didn't answer to why Noel was in the dollhouse and why he helped Charlotte, my god she doesn't even remember most of what she's talking about
nashwa elbanna Maybe Noel helped because of Jenna but other than that maybe he was just some minion (just like Sydney). One thing we know is that he was very loyal to Jenna and wanted to help her with everything that she asked for.
Or maybe he was involved because 1. hated the girls 2. He did it because he was in love with Jenna 3. He was bored and had nothing else to do 😂
Noel and Sara were looking for money cause they thought that Alex was some kind of treasure that was in Radley
isn't noel like rich????
well i think he is rich but still wanted more money, idk
nashwa elbanna they were friends
Everyone's ignoring the biggest question HOW DID THE MOMS GET OUT OF THE BASEMENT???!!!!
Loki Jackson I don't find that as a huge question, because I never saw that as important to
The story.
Latisha Lanclos it's just a joke cause no one knows how they got out
Zendaya Coleman marlene told how they got out 😂😂😂😂
Zendaya Coleman Marlene has actually answered this, just go to shay Mitchell’s channel. X
@@immyx1532 what did she say??
I'm sooo sorry but I'm soooo disappointed. I just expected that there is more to the story. My heart is broken. :(
Strunmah Zill omg me too I felt like cryinggg
Strunmah Zill The real question is which was worse. Alex being a.d or CeCe being A?
In my opinion, the best reveal was Mona as the original A back then... when the show made sense...
Strunmah Zill I agree.
Strunmah Zill oh shut the fuck up
I hate the fact that Marlene gave us an extremely shitty finale to the point where she has to explain every single thing in a freaking interview...the fans didn't deserve this. You literally answered NO questions...
Sintia Danylian so true they said all your questions will be answered and I'm here like ... we're the fuck my answers marline 😡
Stop being mean she did her best and I thought it was amazinh
You need your ears checked. I know now how Alex killed him etc. Maybe get out of your ass and listen
I can't believe they asked Lucas to come to the finale just to dance in a stupid hallucination. Seriously wtf
Berna Aksoz best comment 😂 so true!
Berna Aksoz omg yes finally someone pointed that out! the begining of the episode was weird the lucas dancing thing then Jenna(out of nowhere) riding a horse
Lmfao😂
Omgg yess😂 He could have been in the wedding at least
the reasons the first 4 seasons were successful, was because, the A reveals were realistic, they were all main characters, and that what needed to happen, not dragging things on for years then creating a new character for the final episode just to fill plot holes, the way I see it the writers came up with Alex Drake literally when shooting for the final episode was days away, it's like doing your report 11 pm and it's due 12 am, you create bullsh!t. The fans were watching this show for 7 years, the least they could do was reveal that A was a known character.
F97 B *cough* Melissa should've been AD *cough cough*
*runs away*
or if you think about it, emily could also be A.D., she was the least successful out of the bunch, she was obsessed with alison since season 1, she clearly got what she wanted, marrying alison and having kids with her, and she did not suffer this season, only got her eggs stolen. which gave her kids with the love of her life
They couldn't possibly have come up with that within days of shooting the finale. Do you have any idea how much work goes into making an episode of a TV show? To come up with the storyline days before filming it would be impossible. Plus, she said in the interview that Troian started working on Alex's accent a year before the finale.
Thanks Marlene for making AD a brand new character that we have absolutely no connection to. Actually makes me sick to think about how much money she is making for producing such utter shit.
LMAO LITERALLY???
I was so excited to rewatch the entire series to see what clues they left about AD, but now it's pretty much pointless since Alex is not even in the show till season 6b, and no real clues were even there until season 7.
xcxdreams Exactly :(
xcxdreams - Yup. I know it's hard to do but I really wish this finale tied all the way back to the night that Ali disappeared using the Bethany Young angle, the Lucas angle, the NAT Club tapes etc. Even with the Mona reveal in season 3, there was still enough stuff there to have had a great story/ a satisfying full circle wrap up if they had not blown it with the ridiculous/underwhelming Cee Cee reveal.
same! I'm pissed. I love the cast but the show is such a disappointment in comparison to the well written BOOKS where the clues are planted since the beginning
xcxdreams I was so sad that It was Alex drake in the spoby scene and it wasn't Spencer I was like fuck this
So.. the Finale was a love letter to the Fans? Well, if the letter says "Fuck you guys, you want answers? Too bad, you won't get any!" then yes.. I guess it's a love letter. lol
Yami 😂👏🏻
Yami truuuuuuuuueeeeee
not all questions were answered. What about Bethany Young? NAT club? No real connection to the first season. Their acting was great as usual. These girls always did a wonderful job playing the Liars. Janel knocks it out of the park with Mona. Loved the Mona ending though. Just really wish AD had been someone like Ezra to bring the show back full circle.
It would have been great if it was Ezra. I always thought he was shady. Especially after he was practically stalking the Liars and had cameras everywhere watching them and then just explained it away because "he was writing a book." And then everyone just forgot about that. Shady.
We never found out anymore about NAT other than their members and that they are perverts. 😂
Bethany Young wrapped up in S6x10 Cece Reveal.
I just cant belive we are not going to have a Bethany Young answer ! You cant just create a story then leave it like it never existed 😡😡
Darija Antončić she died, that’s it
Logan Mckay yeah,I know,but I dont know why,I just wanna know more about her,like what is her role in the night Ali went missing,why mrs.D took her riding,why she inzist to call her aunt Jessy,about what was she talking about on tapes they found and those pictures she paint..there are some plot holes about her ..
Darija Antončić she just chose the wrong day and the wrong time to wear Ali's shirt I guess ....
AnaFilipaCarmo i guess she was only a red herring for that time,they give her a bit of story and we didint even saw her face as an adult,just that one time when she killed Toby's mom,so im bit frustrated :')
bethany was hannas twin..thats why the ghosts visited hannas mom! thats why hanna in the dream scene where they remade it and make it a dream hanna was shady in first version! hanna was oing to be ad and bethany her twin ;)
*sigh
I guess it's my fault for expecting the show to end on good terms
Hope breeds eternal misery. Spencer for the first time decided not to believe that quote and I for the first time have started believing that quote. I feel like hugging and punching Marlene at the same time *sob*
Except I think that turns out not to really be Spencer
Stephanie Babb I think Spencer does end up saying that at one point though
No Spencer did say hope breeds eternal misery, but the one scene where she says "the old Spencer would say that. I don't believe that any more" or something like that, I think turns out to be Alex because she asked Mary Drake for help in that same scene.
ohh you right
What was the Bethany story?! I mean like she was calling Jessica aunt Jessie and was drawing them pictures calling her a liar etc? So who was she?
marlene didn't know the answer, sad sad sad...
yes i agree! and how A.D kidnapped jenna and then its like nothing happend? and then she is the one to notice that spencer isn't spencer! haha honestly it is almost funny how bad it was, they made an 2h episode but only the last 30 minutes were about a.d ... so many questions are open!
Mimi Keene ikr she didn't even answer it
plotholes everywhere and where are the flashbacks!? marlene is the biggest liar.
Right? Why was Bethany important? Why did Bethany steal Ali's clothes? Why was she at the DiLaurentis house?
what role did Sara Harvey have? what was her full story?
M Whitty She said that Sarah just wanted the money from Cece/Charlotte (whatever her damn name is. ) But yeah, I do too still don't understand: why was she faking to be kidnapped by Uber A in the Dollhouse? And why got she killed? I dont get the important role she was supposed to have in the serie. Just like Bethany. Why the hell everybody was talking about her if she's not even in the serie?? A lot of questions without any answers.
Léa Pelletier
yeah the Bethany storyline was too confusing considering she wasn’t even seen ever (apart from that one rooftop flashback with Charlie/now CeCe)
I sorta liked the finale but at the end I was like 'is this it?'
MrSasyB I agree. I really enjoyed the finale, but I didn't like it as a final episode for the show
MrSasyB yeah that last scene with Addison and friends in the barn was dumb
Kayla Chart No, because there's going to be a spinoff of the show, so it's not actually "done" per-say
me too :/
TProductions ! I already know that spinoff is gonna be terrible
I was kinda wishing there was this "A.D had always been behind it" feeling to this reveal... the fact that she was just taking over the game these last seasons made it feel like not-so big of a deal to me... I wanted Marlene to give me a story behind A.D that explained in a way why it all had been the way it was for the girls throughout all those years. It just wasn't enough for me.
Alex Davidovich yeah and Mona saying that there's always been someone manipulating in the last episode. It made it seem like there was always someone else from the very start. I always hoped that would be the case as that would be so so amazing. Why couldn't they have just said that Sara was never the black widow but Alex was and that her and Cece were in it together. And linked/explained more of Bethany...like in the flashback have Alex come back with Cece to play the game instead of staying...
Alex Davidovich I totally thought the same thing. That's why I hoped Melissa was AD because it could tie back in from the very pilot and there was no need to go back to scenes previously filmed to explain where she was like Twincer Alex. If you rewatch any season, you'll see Melissa being shady and ordering ppl around (Jenna and Shana) or being involved in the major plots like the fire at the lake house or the Halloween Train or Bethany's death. She was a friend of Cece's and could've blamed the girls for Ian's death which made her a (Black) widow aka Lady in Black which was supposed to be endgame according to Marlene. They could've wrote the last two seasons to develop her motive but all they did was make her look shady as a red herring which was my biggest disappointment because she really could've been the A that overarched the series. Also, the AD could've stood for the Latin for Devil's Advocate which would've tied back into the family's law theme and explain why the main objective of AD was to drive the girls apart (which now that I think of it...Why would Alex want to drive them apart when all she wanted was to be part of their group? if she succeeded, there would be nothing to join once she became Spencer...). Anyhow, I hope someone reads this and agrees that Melissa would've made the best AD
Jolie K Wong I totally agree!!IT is like you are speaking from my mind. All the time it looked like melissa was involved in everything. So dissappointed it ends like this.
Alex Davidovich I agree in a way but also, Troian also said that the show really was supposed to end after charles /cece / charlotte was revealed. So it had to be a new character that took over the game. It wouldn't have really made sense if it was someone we knew already.
Alex Davidovich I agree, I expected Wren to be Charles and A.D and I needed more reveals than that cuz I still have unanswered questions that make my head explode but I still like the finale
The family tree. Ted and Mary had CeCe. Peter and Veronica had Melissa same time Peter and Jessica had Jason. Mary and Peter had Spencer and Alex same time Kenneth and Jessica had Alison. This family tree is fucked up and mostly cuz of Peter!
Tigger97 Peter couldn't control his Pete.
😂😂😂
Marlene King is the biggest liars of them all.
She basically said The Land in Black is the endgame. So the freaking Sara Harvey is her but she ain't the end game. Why is she killed by the way? Why was she at Bethany's funeral? Who the hell is Bethany Young and what was her relevance to the storyline.NOTHING.They gave us nothing but a twin that existed between season 6B and 7. Where is the full circle by the way because we couldn't catch. Making Wren a diamond necklace is sure not a full circle. I am so pissed off.We kept investing this show for 7 years and it ended like a disaster. Congratulations Marlene King the finale was really horrible even worse than the Cece reveal.
Berna Aksoz one thing I cant understand is the whole Charolette story,it was a heartbreaking story about how she wanted family and be part od Dilaurentes family,refering to Alison as her sister,but all along she knew that she have two sisters,twin sisters and she say when Alex ask her about Spencer,that she is only her doll, I just dont understand ..
Darija Antončić Yes and Charlotte didn't actually like Alison too because she lied to her about her healing process. Twincer also wanted to have a family but she didn't go to meet her father Peter Hastings or her other siblings Melissa and Jason.
Berna Aksoz the reason im most pissed off is the Bethany Young story.. how can you introduce us with a caracter,give us hints about it and then the closeure of that story is that she killed Tobys mom and Mona killed her,and we dont even see adoult face of that girl,only a flashback..there is so much Q&a they have to give to us ..
Darija Antončić my exact question! Like if she knew Mary was her mother and not Jessica why would she pretend to be the sister of Ali and Jason? I can't understand and with the flashbacks we got between her and Alex is obvious she knew and treated her as a sister, and this is before she returns to Rosewood and kidnaps the liars in the dollhouse and of course of her reveal as A so why would she lie if she knew Spencer was her other sister? It doesn't make sense unless she found out later she was Mary's daughter but they told us she knew and that's why she used the Drake in her alias.
nirvanessa i think that Marlene and the others really think we are stupid and that we are forgeting what we watched.. there are to many plotholes in the show,that she cant explain and I maybe understand for someting seasons ago but someting new,someting like this reveal,thats kind of lazy .. she even dont know when Charollette died..
"I think she thought..." seriously Marlene? You don't know what the characters you wrote and essentially brought to life to the screen were thinking? This just goes to show that Marlene's finale was not that well thought out after all.
It was honestly the weirdest end ever. Nothing made real sense.
Identical twins DO NOT run in families people, only fraternal twins do 🤦♀️ and even if they did, they would be Emily's twins, not Alison's.
Laura - loverofnames Alison had em so there both of there's
Bowzsosexiilover07 right, but I was talking about biologically.
Laura - loverofnames AD probably impregnated Alison through IVF which has a high rate of twins. So in that case it isn't that weird. But Alex and Spencer being identical twins when their mom is an identical twin is probably very rare and unlikely.
Daniel O'Connor The reason IVF can result in twins is because they will normally transfer multiple embryos but that would still make them fraternal. If Marlene had done 2 seconds of research on identical twins, she would see how ridiculous it is that she has 3 sets of them on her show. And to say that identical twins run in families is ridiculous. It was a cop out and makes her look foolish.
EXACTLY! They clearly did no research before writing it
Soooooo Eddie Lamb just left town? Huh well okayyy
Jasmine Azad and tanner had nothing to do with anything and the last cop left too without explanation when he was on the tail
+LoLo & Benny Marco left cause he felt too close to the case because of Spencer. That's why Tanner took over
And the blonde twins from the halloween episodes were 'just ghosts'
And why wren and Eddie seemingly hated each other? And why Eddie seemed like he knew aria when she was volunteering at radley. And how is no one talking about the introduction in the finale?! Why was Lucas tap dancing and how come we never found out what was up with him and his comics? And Noel and Sara's involvement with A? And the list goes on!
eddie hated wren because wren did let charlotte out of radley and bethany could escape to. And he did more like that stuff, He was helping some patients which Eddie didn't like and was like this is not how it has supossed to be. Eddie was more off the rules, although he did build sortoff a friendship with Spencer and was almost don't listening to the rules. so thats why he left town. And i guess why Eddie knew aria is because she was once visiting Spencer before her volunteering so he probaly knew her because of that time. or spencer has told about her friend aria or something. Marlene also give an answer about the lucas and jenna thing in the beginning. it was all in Mona's snowbowl and just for fun, nothing special. Lucas is just a nerd of comics he just really liked comics, and he had made 2 comics with charlotte , charles at that moment, and it was all about the endgame, and the second wasn't finished. so i guess charlotte told about the comics to like she told about everything and did share her plans. but lucas didn't had more to do with it. although he sometimes really looked shady but he was also treathened by A.D. ( and by Mona in the beginning,like she used him).Noel and sara's involvement weren't that clear for me to. although sara was redcoat and blackwidow (which i rather wanted be someone else) and why she was making a hole in her hotelroom was because she thought she find money, but it was all about a file where A.D. used her for. (the file of mary drake). But why she got killed ( maybe she knew to much idon't know) and was sharing with jenna i dont know i guess because jenna was part of the A.D team because A.D was paying for her eye operation. and jenna wanted to figure out who A.D. was thats why she also did had noel work for her because he was her eyes (they once where in a relationship) and where noel got killed, i think jenna had a task to kill spencer or at least treathened her and the liars and get them in that place, so A.D could kill spencer ( as revenge or to take her place) . But yeah the whole why was noel in the dollhouse, 'helping' Cece thing and i guess same for jenna (although i thought she was friends with cece and always hated the liars) but mostly why was sara helping, because of money ? or because of she didn't want to go back to her old live or she had mental issues to and how did she know cece ( if this is answered correct me because i can't remember almost everything about sara). But you still have some of your answers in here. (which are most of them or all of them are given in the serie)
Why did aria paperwork say patient
Mimi Keene EXACTLY THIS SHOW IS JUST LOOSE ENDS.
Mimi Keene patient of the therapist I guess.
I really hoped that Aria was mental or something to make it interesting
Marlene doesn't have a clue what she's talking about. It's clear that nothing was planned out probably. They just chucked all this together and then afterwards tried to come up with things to fix the massive plot holes. When she said "twins run in the family" 😂 They were Emily's eggs not Allys. Alexs English accent was a joke. The finale was just disappointing and stupid.
technically, we don't actually know for sure that the eggs were Emily's, so they could have been Alex's eggs, she just wanted to torment Emily and Ali so that they think that they were actually Emily's eggs.
Jen M. Tremmor they did genetic testing during one of the episodes and confirmed it was Emily's when Allison was pregnant. Also, identical twins aren't genetic only fraternal... but whatever I'm glad to have some resolve
yes they did genetic testing, doesn't mean that Alex didn't somehow change the results to say that the eggs were Emily's, all we had was Ali's word on the subject, they never showed her going to get it done or the results.
lol agreed they were emilys eggs and wrens sperm both of which do not have twins so that comment made no sense lol.. typical pll answer.. marlene cant even remember events in the show.. and they would change story lines all the time so theres bound to be plot holes... if they planned EVERYTHING out from the beggining it would have made so much sense
Heather Mcculloch I laughed so hard at the "twins run in the family" part because I was like what? 😂
I feel like the ending was a lot off from the whole plot. I wished they revealed that Spencer had a twin before (like at 7x10 or so) and that we got to see more Alex trying to be Spencer knowing though that she was in fact AD. They always said that AD was someone we knew from earlier seasons. And actually that's a lie, cuz we only got to know her at the very end. In the end after 7 seasons it all ended very easily in one episode and it made it look easy.
Also, the first 40 minutes of the episode was just so slow and random, like the Emily's mom "secret" (engagement), or the Arias's "I can't have babies" or the "I wanna have babies" and fights with Haleb. What I'm trying to say is that the whole BIG REVEAL was only 30 minutes long. I wish they got rid of the futile things and got to the juicy stuff earlier.
And what about the weird first scene? What happens to Lucas? They promised closure and they didn't keep that promise.
Overall, big disappointment.
The last episode only has sex sex sex and wedding, where the hell are the answers about Eddie lamb, melissa talking to bethany, melissa trying to kill aria in the treen halloween, the twin only is in 3 or 4 episodes from 160???? There's no connecction on al the damn 7 seasons !!'
ana linda Yes!!!! I really wanted them to reveal Melissa as AD. It was the BEST answer to tie all the seasons together
It's really funny how she can't even answer the questions about her OWN show. They just came up with some crazy storyline for every new season. And now in the end it makes absolutely no sense! It's so stupid. This whole storyline with Alex could have been "shared" with the viewers in season 6B and developed much better. WTF? This was so disappointing. So many loose ends and so many questions unanswered - and that by the show creator and writer.
"Twins in the family" .....
1). They were Emily's eggs
2). Identical twins aren't genetic
3). Fraternal twin are genetic but they tend to skip a generation.
she clearly did no research about twins
madisont she clearly did no research about her own show 🙄
Hidden Shadows Can you explain how identical twins aren't genetic, but fraternal twins ae?
Hidden Shadows but aren't surrogates more inclined to have twins? Which is basically what Alison was..
But how did she avenge charlotte's death if she tortured the wrong ppl (the girls) and not mona who acc did it?!
Marella Linzaga just let it go
How on earth did the moms get out of the basement??? 😨😨
they were so drunk. that they don't remember.. if you watch when the moms are talking. it was during Aria's rehearsal dinner.. watch it again. if you didn't catch it.
The problem we have now is a large portion of the fanbase crying about unanswered questions but last year kissing the writers ass for focusing more on ships and not the writing of the show.
exactly, I for one never cared for the ships as long as they did a great story but they didn't it was all about endgame couples...
Exactly, I find it pretty funny that now people are crying about Bethany and stuff that should of got answered way before the time jump. I went in with low expectations and to take it for what it was and kinda enjoyed it. But there is no way the writers could of redeemed the mess they've been making for the past how many ever years in 2 hours. Maybe because I've always seen the flaws but I can't see why people are now only just mad haha.
Honestly I think season 7 was one of the worst ones b/c it felt like filler episodes and not really answered questions. I mean we still have questions about freaking Bethany young and Cape may from other seasons. Way to many loose ends. Maya dieing I didn't get that. So much does not make sense.
FINALLY, someone says it!! It's the shippers' faults!
Robbie Jay I love this ! So true ! People are never happy
The finale was a disgrace
Exactly
Disappointed
Mona's "tea pretty girl" scene was so cute in a weird Creepy way. I feel like this show has been my life. I will miss it so much... such a bittersweet moment.
I don't think the intro's long enough. Maybe you could add another 40 seconds?
Anna Bolika 😂😂😂
another 40 minutes would do
On the last rosewood run down Marlene said that there were no twins well turns out there was 😡
To me Wren was kinda like an A.D 2 which made me really happy cause I was telling my sister "he has to have something to do with A.D more than just helping a couple times" and then we got the promo with Mona saying "I never would of guessed it was you" and I'm just like "yep that's wren 😂"
So those scenes of Spencer and Melissa and Wren in England that was Alex and not Spencer? And did Melissa know? And after those scenes when Melissa is back in town and she and her Dad are at the police station what did Melissa whisper in her Dad's ear? Which season does Wren meet Alex?
SuperAtarah what scenes with them? idk and I think around the end of season 4
I think that Spencer went to London to study/visit Melissa. I"ll try to find those scenes.
SuperAtarah she told her dad that she killed bethany young and wanted to tell the police but her dad stopped her
Melissa murdered Bethany Young???
wow didn't know that.
I have a few questions: Why was a character that we didn't even know about A.D.?? 2. Why was there a one year time jump? 3. Why don't we still not know the full story of all the people at the events of 'that night'?
4. Why don't we have full closure about Sboby??????
Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to say that i wasted my time watching this show. Every week I looked forward for the next episode and lived on edge every time I saw the promo for the next episode. I just feel as though they didn't think about how the fans would feel about the episode, I would have preferred it be one of the liars tbh. Well done on creating this series Marlene, but not so much on the finale...
Daryl Dixon Spoby is back together. Spencer said it at the end
It was a 5 year time jump
what I don't get is that the girls just saw a cop taking Alex away, but after that how is it possible that they don't realize that there wasnt a trial or that she is not in jail but somewhere else.. Mona cant just kidnap Mary and Alex without anyone finding out...
2,and how did they break out of prison?? this is just stupid.
3,also the girls and Spencer would have figured out that there is an other "spencer". and how didnt Toby know that he was having sex with someone else....
3,Why would Wren use his own sperm to fertilize emily's eggs....
4, WTF...?
They never went to prison...it was just Mona & her bf that got them...
i meant Mary. how did she escape?
Wait , so do alis twins have alis genes even though they were Emily eggs ?
Gisselle Arinaga Yes, because she grew them in her tummy :) it's because of the placenta.
lusamiisaysalot oh ok . thank you so much :)
yup cos pll logic 😂
Gisselle Arinaga no they don't, the twins run in the family bit doesn't make sense
sophielofa , there is SOME genetic exchange from surrogate to child. Some fetal cells go to the mother and vice versa because of the placenta. :) and I believe Toby was refering to Jessica&Mary and Spencer&Alex and not to Lilly&Grace. It's most likely that both of them are not 'real' twins as in a IVF they impregnate a woman with more than one fertilized eggs.
I got a little more in this interview than the actual show. BUT HOW DID THE MOMS GET OUT OF THE FREAKING BASEMENT?!?!?!
I really wish there would have been more flashbacks...... little pieces from every season
Mercedes Martinez They obviously couldn't do that if AD was hastily stuck on at the end of the show
Jolie K Wong BITTER MUCH "JENNA".... ooooppppps. I mean "Jolie" They Obviously could have put more flashbacks throughout the entire show. AD at the end capture has nothing to do with that.
This seems like a bad joke.
Things I Felt Could Have Made The Finale Better
Alex kills Mona or Mary
Wren Kills Alex in a final scene
THEY DELETE THAT LAST SCENE WITH ADDISON
Emison finds out Wrens the father
AD was there since the beginning, not just since Charloutte died
trashboat miguel Wren loved her, he wouldn't kill her, Alex had no family for years she would never kill her mum
how did the moms get out of the basement?
"It made sense that alison had twins because twins run in the family" while THE EGGS ARE EMILY's AND THE SPERM WAS WREN's😭 excuse me????
What did Alex get out off getting Alison pregnant, how dose it punish Alison and what was she trying to achieve in doing so. Yes it was a violation to Alison's body, but on the bright side Alison has everything she's ever really wanted now. That being Emily her soon to be wife and two little girls. Maybe there was no real plot behind it only to insure emerson got a happy ending.
Alex kidnaps Ezra because he's at the hotel booking an hot air balloon ride and realises spencer isn't spencer... biggest load of bs I've ever heard. I can't even 😂😂
Why the hell did eddy know aria at radley? SOOOO many unanswered questions..... complete flop 👎🏻
Dawn Swenor I wish Aria was A.D instead!
He remembers her visiting spencer
28:23 is so awkward bc Marlene went in for a hug bc she thought the interviewer was gonna hug her and then it backfired ah so much awkward it makes me sad lol
Sophie Lee 😂
Im sorry but I'm from london and that was no where near a British street accent. No one speaks like that unless ur from oliver twist :/
At least Troian tried to do it 😂
Ruben Vasquez yh it is hard I guess ngl 😂😂 but it was really cringey to listen to
Marella Linzaga people do speak like that😂 east end? Essex?
Abena Adwedaa ....... no lol
igglepiggle9 lol yes😂
the show is A joke ... where is the answers
i think it would have been a bit more shocking if alex had kidnapped spencer at the start of 7b and then the finale is the reveal it would have been more of a suprise
Shine bright like a Wren 💠
What about Lucas????
I didn't even want a Spoby wedding cause I thought it was too soon, but doesn't anyone else think it's unfair that Spoby hasn't kissed since 6x09? Like really Marlene? You couldn't even add an actual Spoby kiss or let them hug after Toby found out who the real spencer is?
What a rollercoaster of 7 years. Thank you Marlene, Shay, Ashley, Sasha, Lucy, Troian, Janel, Keegan, Tyler, Ian and everyone else for this show. Thank you Sara for writing the books. Thank you for bringing these characters to life. I am forever grateful for this show and the happiness and confidence it has given me. #PLLArmy forever

Questions we will NEVER EVER know the answers to......
We had to turn him into the diamond. Lol i am dead.
I feel like Marlene is just making up the answers like when I take the tests I didn't study for.
I'm Sydney at 24:42!!! I asked my question way before they answered it so she saw it last minute. But I'm just so excited that I was even picked 😁. My first time getting a question of mine picked and it was the last video it made my day... Been a PLL fan since the first season and I already miss it. Tuesdays will never be the same
I can't believe we're never gonna know how the moms got out of the basement
Opal Meshulam if you watch simgmproductions then you know how.
It's not brain surgery people...someone just got them out...
It was a joke, although I'd really like to know who got them out
I finally understand the last episode now lol Janel is such a good actress I agree and I kinda wanted monas scene to be the last....but I finally understand thank you Marline for making a good series 😊 x
Lish Rands thank you for being like the only grateful person!❤️
Lish Rands you're not very bright are you ? ☹️
Horrible HORRIBLE ending. didn't answer ANY questions! Marlene is a HORRIBLE writer. I can't say HORRIBLE enough. literally she could have used ANY of the theories fans put on UA-cam and it would have been great!
Jalen Tran yes but those theories tied Twinster into the entire series. I would have been fine with it if she tied Alex into the entire series but for her to only be relevant in these last 10 episodes was dumb.
Jalen Tran the fan theories of Twinster were WAY more detailed and tied into the entire series starting with the very first episode. she should have gone with that. the fans come up with a better and more detailed ending.
The cast messages for Marlene were everything. Thank you Marlene for bringing this show to our tv screens for years. Regardless if people were happy with the reveal or not, we were all hooked on this show for so long. We fell in love with the characters, the stories, the ships, the mystery. To continue to pull us in season after season is a very powerful thing and should be appreciated. Thank you to all the actors, writers, directors, etc. for your time and dedication. Love Pretty Little Liars always.
what i don't understand is why she was so adamant about trying to steal the life of somebody she had never even met before. does she really have no sense of individuality?
joshfactor1 crazy runs in the family. like mother like daughter.
I'm so confused as to why people are saying that Charlotte and Alex got close cause of being sisters and having family, it would have been obvious from when they met that Spencer was also their sister so I dont understand why they would still hurt her so much if they really just wanted family... I think the show just ran out of ideas and so they thought hey why not just add another useless family/sibling connection that doesn't make sense or really do anything. so sad its over and also so disappointed in the ending... it should have been Jenna or Melissa or someone actually plausible that had a really good reason to do all of the stuff to the girls and not just some half cocked ending... also doesn't explain why aria was the favorite, shouldn't it have been Spencer since it was her twin and twins usually have a weird connection?
chiara french crazy runs in the family and sociopaths will run together.
yeah true , im slightly 50/50 on the finale for 1 im happy it wasnt some1 that was obvious cuz thatd be boring eg. jenna , melissa , mona i wanted a real sense of surprise ,which i didnt rlly get however more than i feel i would hv got with some1 obvious
but then i wanted it to be some1 we acc new not just a new character which makes it seem like marlene just came up with,cuz i also wanted that sense of omg i cant believe theyd do that eg. someone like emily (just cuz ive seen theories about her that would hv been more interesting )
Let me make it clear noone WILL HAVE A GOOD ENOUGH REASON TO DO THIE
@@pascalfernandes6957 of course no one has a good reason to do this shit but that was the whole point of the show, that someone felt the need or desire or whatever to do this. A sibling that they never knew about makes less sense than a girl they physically injured so badly she lost her sight or a girl they bullied and teased to the point she was all alone and emotionally wrecked by them which lead to servers mental illness which she was institutionalised for already, as well have already done some pretty heinous stuff because of the main 5 girls. So yes you are right, there is no one that should ever get to this point of tormenting and torturing others, my point was just that an established character with more substantial and concrete motive would have made more sense and been a more satisfying ending to the series.
I liked the Twincer Reveal and I was so shocked the Alex killed Wren and turned him into a diamond necklace...like girl what!?
wren is dead ??😂
Yasmin Ferchichi Alex killed him probably bc he didn't want to be involved anymore, had him cremated then turned his ashes into a diamond and wears him around her neck
Yeah, that bit was one of the most shocking things. I didn't know if that was a lie, but there was basically no reaction after that. So casual, like oh yeah, do you like my necklace? I made it from my dead boyfriend, who I killed. :D
Anyways...
I didn't even notice that wren was killed 🙃
Dominique Edwards samee, i was in fucking shocked when she said about the diamond necklace like wtf that bitch was crazy!
I needed this so much! All these unanswered questions!
can somebody explain to her that twins run in alison's family and not in emily's and the babies are actually emily's... I guess someone was not good at biology..
They never answers the Melissa and cece
Yea.....that's my question....why wasn't Alison part of the damn BIG -AD reveal.....I mean the story IS based off of her...I think it should've been Bethany who was -AD because she was jealous of Alison and her life.....so she used Mona and others who Alison bullied and manipulated to torture her and her friends.
AB in the books Ad was Alison and the body in the grave was her dead twin Courtney.
Barbara Edmondson yea I know I read them all.... but I'm saying this could've been another way to make it about Alison and Spencer too.... Mar already said Alison wouldn't have a twin in the show so that was out of the question.... and plus I really wanted to see more about Bethany
AB I think the twist should have been Ali's twin and that her and Ali were in cahoots the entire time.
Things that are still not clear:
Why did Maya have to die? Why did Nathan kill her?
Why was Ali so afraid of Noel Kahn?
Why did Ali drug the girls that first night in the barn? So she could meet up with Ian?
Why did CeCe hit Alison on the head with the rock that first episode? Wasn't Mona A then....Why did Jessica DiLaurentes bury her own daughter to save her niece? Whey wouldn't she want CeCe to rot in jail for that?
What motivated Mary to kill Jessica when she did?
In the scenes where Spencer is in London visiting Melissa, is that Alex?
What was the NAT club (where they meet in Alison's room)?
Was Jenna good? Or just trying to see? And not against the girls per say. Didn't she force Toby to have sex with her?
What did Wilden know about the game? Was he just sleazy on his own?
Didn't you miss Tanner in 7/20? I know what she said about the easy clear solution to the crime as opposed to a messy answer, etc but still
Who was black widow and who was red coat? For real?
I'm sure there are tons more questions.
SuperAtarah Maya died because Nathan was a crazy person who was also stalking her , Ali drugged the girls in the first episode so she could sneak of and find out who was sending her the original a messages , with the girls being drugged she knew it couldn't be them .
I just binged, so these are fresh in my mind:
"Why did Maya have to die? Why did Nathan kill her?" -He was stalking her and he lost his mind when she kept ignoring him.
"Why was Ali so afraid of Noel Kahn?" -She wasn't at first, because she was working with him. Not sure if she started to fear him later though.
"Why did Ali drug the girls that first night in the barn? So she could meet up with Ian?" -Equal parts meeting with Ian, and also ruling the girls out as "A". There was an episode where she explained that she knew if she got an "A" message when they were knocked out she'd know it wasn't one of them.
"Why did CeCe hit Alison on the head with the rock that first episode? Wasn't Mona A then...." -Yep, Mona was "A" then, but CeCe had her own little plot going. She thought that Alison was Bethany Young from behind, and she knew that Bethany hated her mother (because Jessica was having an affair with Bethany's dad) and was afraid Bethany was going to kill again (Bethany killed Toby's mom, so CeCe knew how dangerous she was).
'Why did Jessica DiLaurentes bury her own daughter to save her niece? Why wouldn't she want CeCe to rot in jail for that?" -CeCe may not have been her biological child, but Charles/CeCe was her child nonetheless. Adopted children are still children and she'd already lost one daughter and couldn't bear the thought of losing another.
"What motivated Mary to kill Jessica when she did?" -Not sure about the timing, but I do remember something about Mary Drake saying Jessica planned to poison her with Peter Hastings pills and so Mary stole those pills and killed Jessica instead.
"In the scenes where Spencer is in London visiting Melissa, is that Alex?" -Nope, that was Spencer. Veronica forced her to leave the country because she was afraid the police were building a case to get all the Liars sent to prison. Another reason we know it was definitely Spencer is because when she was on her interview at the college that blood "A" stashed in her luggage soaked out of her bag and on to the floor.
"What was the NAT club (where they meet in Alison's room)?" -I can't remember the exact Latin name they used for the initials of the club, but it meant "We See All" which was basically just a way of saying "creepy pervs recording stuff".
"Was Jenna good? Or just trying to see? And not against the girls per say. Didn't she force Toby to have sex with her?" -She was definitely a neutral evil. She did just want her sight back, but she did some really shifty things.
"What did Wilden know about the game? Was he just sleazy on his own?" -Not sure, especially given he is the one (according to Mona) who put Aria in the box on the Halloween train and killed Garrett. He was definitely sleazy. If it helps answer any questions...he's the cop Jessica bribed to take CeCe back to Radley after Ali was dead and buried.
"Didn't you miss Tanner in 7/20? I know what she said about the easy clear solution to the crime as opposed to a messy answer, etc but still" -Yes! Linda Tanner was a riot and I loved her.
"Who was black widow and who was red coat? For real?" Black Widow was Sara Harvey. Red coat in the earlier seasons were Ali/CeCe, but redcoat later on was Sara Harvey.
Why would Alex want to kill Spencer at the blind school if her whole plan was to take over Spencer's life?
I wish I was the one who was interviewing her I would't let her off this easy cause I have 1000 questions..
It got silly after season 5
all I wanna know is what did Aria whisper to Mona to make her so scared that one episode and how E. Lamb recognized Aria in Radley
oh yeaa
who killed Maya and why did she have to die?
nate her stalker did
why? and why did mona say maya knew? and she have weird creepy videos on her website?
babyblue sweet what creepy videos? Ik she had the website but i don't remember the "creepy" videos
Lm ao Some weren't creepy, but in one of them she was expressing fear of someone.
Well I'm assuming the videos expressing fear of someone was her expressing fear of Nate. But we never got answered the whole "Maya knew" thing.
pll overall was amazing because of the actors. The writers were garbage. So much plotholes and you had to come out at the end of the show just to explain shit which is just as bad
I loved Spencer's acting, she did amazing!
Brooke LeAnne I totally agree with you! My friend and I were so like: damn what an amazing actress! She dis such a great job acting Alex Drake and it's like if nobody has noticed that cause they are too busy to insult Marlene.
Léa Pelletier I couldn't agree more!! Troian deserves an award for that performance!!
Marlene is the worst showrunner ever.
The Finale should explain EVERYTHING there shouldn't be any questions left. I think she just put in random clues through all the seasons so in the end it could have been everyone. I wish she would have planned the story from the beginning and not just randomly made it up near the end.
ugh, i love this show way too much. i wish it could go on forever lol
Rewatching this years later still disappoints me. I always wonder how amazing this show could’ve been if she knew how to run a show. This reboot they are making now shouldn’t be a thing. Just let it die lmao
FR
Aria should’ve been A or Alison or Wren or Melissa seriously anything would’ve been better than Alex Drake ☠️
Wait - weren't we supposed to see the scene where Sarah Harvey gets killed? I don't remember seeing that in the finale...
What they shouldve done is had Spencer die in 7x10 after she got shot, and Alex Drake pretends to be Spencer in the last 10 episodes. It wouldve been a bigger/sadder reveal.
that could of been awesome!
Toby knew which one was Spencer? Yeah ok thats why he thought Alex was Spencer and slept with her twice!! What a disappointing finale
I feel like I missed something major. What was the whole point of the girls in the abandoned house and being attacked by Noel and Jenna at the end of 7A?
they wanted charlottes money.
Yes, Charlotte had a shitload of money but she gave it to all the people who played on her team so I still don't get why they went after the liars. Was it just to kill Spencer as part of A.D's game? What did Noel mean when he said the girls knew too much? And how is it that they suddenly apparently forgave Jenna come the last episode? She played a massive part in trying to get them killed - how can they just forget the events of 7A finale?
I am so disappointed! :( sorry but just didnt make sense
Thank u I needed those answers
I started watching pll when I was only 12 now I'm 18 it was so hard to see this amazing show end honestly pretty little liars has helped me with so much it always has been and always will be my favourite show so happy with the ending
the parent trap 8.0
Kareem clyne 😂
I don't think Marlene remembers the fact that Jason was stabbed by Aria. Remember Mona was trying to mend his wound, outside his house? So...
wow!!!!! I was thinking the same thing!!
Thank you so much the best tv show ever please keep us updated
I wish there was one A all along!
And Mona and cece were just working with him or covering up for him or something...
I'm honestly disappointed. I expected more from the show. I hoped it would've been someone that we knew from season 1, that all the dots and stories would connect!
I just feel like they threw all the seasons away, the bullying, the fact that it was about ali, the fact that the liars where friends because of her, and the fact that everyone had something against them apparently...they just threw so many good stories away and turned it into a *family soap opera!* with so many plot holes and no conclusion!
Can you tell us how to become a partner at a law firm in a year as a simple PARALEGAL? I wouldnt have wasted my time with law school if i knew this magical secret Marlene.
Lamisa Imam haha I'm a paralegal now and this is a wonderful point
skylah sanchez according to PLL you can become a partner at your firm in a year 😂😂 congrats!!
Lamisa Imam the only thing Marlene is good at is pulling shit out of her ass.
