Pretty Little Liars Episodes 121 & 122: Brenton Ruins This Podcast
Hello. Revisiting some of your old podcast and I have a question. If the show said Ezra had mental issues like Cece and Mona, would both have forgiven him? Just curious 🧐
I don’t think forgive isn’t the right word here, but it would not have made me like him more as a character. I think the mental health stuff with Mona (and broadly across most of the characters) is bad. I love Mona because she’s a great foil. I don’t like what they do with Cece at all.
@@Dead_ends I wasn’t referring to liking her. I like her as well but I understand why the Liars never trust her again. Caleb lied, Toby lied, Jason lied, Melissa has lied, Ezra lied and to me the difference is once they get caught, they all apologize and never do it again. Mona repeatedly does it again, again. Also to me ALL THE CHARACTERS ARE BAD EXCEPT Ella, Pam, Veronica. Thank you for answering though. 🙂
@@Dead_ends my brother and I just binged the show. fYI I’m 41 and 46 and a university professor In English Lit. Before we started I told him, everything in the real world throw it away when watching this show, I think they would make it enjoyable. When we were done he hated the girls Liars 😂😂, I told him Mona is a fan favorite and he said he liked her too but he would have never spoken to her again after season 2. He brought up the older men and younger girls a few times but he always ended it with but this is tv and that’s a trope.
Also he loved Hanna and Caleb but after Caleb and Spencer I disliked Hanna and Caleb and didn’t want them together anymore. He said Aria and Ezra deserved to get married because they need together since the beginning and he met him before we got a complete introduction to the other Liars.
Yup we just don’t like the trope. Glad he enjoyed the show!
Such a shame it got cancelled. It’s kind of sad that PLL is over.
I like it
I’m glad you guys are starting to enjoy this a bit and I think that trend will continue! I wanted to mention a couple things: - You guys mentioned that the janitor was just in the wrong place at the wrong time but he also was sort of creeping on Faran before that. It was really quick and easy to forget but it does further play into the theme of creepy/terrible men in this show. - As far as prior friendships go, it’s not explicitly stated but I always assumed that Imogen was with Karen, Tabby was with Chip, Faran was with the ballet girls (not including Karen or Kelly), Noa was with the track team (probably prior to juvie, and I don’t think it’s unreasonable to assume that only Shawn stuck with her through that), and Mouse (our software-slaying techno girl toy) was sort of isolated due to her overprotective parents and the fact that she’s a year younger than the rest of the girls. - Yes I think it’s fair to take the “transphobic” line as a dig at the original show. This show tries to correct a lot of the original show’s mistakes and seems far more receptive to audience perception. It does fall into some of the same pitfalls as the original show in some ways, but it generally tries to be better. - Tabby’s references absolutely drove me nuts too and I promise it gets way better. What I do think is fun though is that the show itself has lots of references mainly to horror (such as Faran’s mom working at Strode, Prescott, and Ripley Associates which references to the last names of the final girls in Halloween, Scream, and Alien) but also to non-horror influences (such as Madame Giry from Phantom of the Opera). Here’s a link to a Buzzfeed article that breaks down all of the references (separated by episodes so you can avoid spoilers) if you’re interested in seeing all the references: www.buzzfeed.com/jessg/pretty-little-liars-original-sin-horror-references - And finally, since you commented on how cute Mouse & Ash are I figured you’d like to know that the actors who portray them started dating irl and are still together!!! Apologies for the long comment!
Oooo they really packed in the references then, we’re already enjoying Tabby a lot more now. Yes we love that they’re together! Teen soap operas must at least have one couple.
To Emily’s point of none of the little liars having friend groups previously, I also think it’s sort of unrealistic how fast they all became besties without having any foundation like the original liars did. Also Mouse and family’s plot line is one of the most bizarre and uncomfortable I’ve seen on tv. Enjoy your time off the pod!
Ya the season only being 10 episodes really exacerbates this. Why are they friends and what happened to their groups before? Thank you so much!
Did you notice that the pill bottle that Noah’s mom stole was prescribed to Caleb Rivers?
No!!!!! That’s amazing, poor Caleb’s hit some rough times
I grew to like the characters of this show, some more than others, but the plot is kinda wtf lol. The finale is really exciting so you can look forward to that! My personal ranking would be PLL, Perfectionists, OS, Ravenswood.
We recorded next weeks episodes and were much higher on those two. I think the slow start doesnt help this series but I’m excited to what it’ll build to
I realized when rewatching the perfectionists that there was also a character in that show named Angela who jumped to her death but I believe it was from the bridge Taylor was supposedly seen jumping from and I think she had a different last name (the girl Ray Hogadorn was in love with)
You’re absolutely right, PLL is just coming after Angelas
Things that were never explained: The cameras in the mirrors The staff of people who were apparently watching the cameras and the person who responded to Mona The whisper that repeated “it’s just like you imagined it” when they were at the candlelight vigil for Nolan The person in the pig mask Why Ray had all the newspaper clippings up of Taylor and Nolan Who was Ali’s original professor that she TA’d for all semester Who hit Caitlin with a car Did Dylan know that Nolan took a selfie of them How did Nolan get a picture of Caitlin’s mom What was Taylor’s problem Who tried to kill Taylor Doesn’t Mona say Taylor was the town’s only suicide but then Ray said Angela also committed How was Taylor able to fake her death
Also let me know if I should censor comments, I’m not sure if RUclips cares if people comment about death, etc, and I don’t want to hurt your channel
lol wouldn’t be PLL if they didn’t pile up a bunch of mysteries. No need to censor you’re all good!
I’ve actually really enjoyed the show. I wish it got renewed so we weren’t left with disappointment about the ending but I like to think that if it had been renewed, most of your complaints would have been addressed in the next season.
100% agree. It feels like both a show that’s finding its footing and something written for 24 episodes. Imo they needed a faster pace for the mystery for this shortened season.
Ali thinking Taylor’s mom wouldn’t hurt her is so weird. If someone said that to her back in the day she would be like I’m not so sure, I can’t take the risk. Besides, Claire is a freak lol.
Lolll I would never trust Claire in a million years
Brenton is so correct in having man getting heart pulled out of his chest, small sidekick character, and blonde woman screaming as the key elements of Temple of Doom 💀 Those (and it by far being the most racist one) are how I think of that film lol
It’s been a while since I’ve seen it but in my memory it’s pretty racist lol
I have NO recollection of the Toby being high / Lorenzo and the gang getting pelted with balls scene and now I want to go back and rewatch 😭
It’s so good! One of the best scenes of the whole show
If this A was from Rosewood, they would submit Ava’s drunken Vogue videos for her. I didn’t notice the 214 connection! Did you guys answer at some point who you think killed Nolan?
that would’ve been sent almost immediately! I don’t think so, one of my complaints for the upcoming episodes is I keep forgetting that’s the inciting incident lol
Honestly I kept waiting for that to happen. I was like oh they're going to submit her drunk and bad video but whoever is messing with them is much more lowkey than our girlboss A's.
This show had the budget! Not the Lost whisper tease with “it’s exactly how you imagined it.” (Brenton will understand.) I’ve never seen Riverdale or any of those other shows so I’m down to watch those!
lol I don’t remember the reference! I’m a fake lost fan
please watch the new pll whenever you can! original sin & summer school are so refreshing, i love how they took the overall concept of pll and made it their own with some fun little nods to the original series - i think you guys would enjoy it!
We're really excited to get to it! We'll be watching them after the Perfectionists
Hi, you all made it. Enjoying watching and listening to you both. 🎉🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Thank you so much!
around 56 minutes into this podcast during Brenton’s description he mentions that in the book “spencer” gave toby, he notices that it isn’t marked up, so that would explain why he uses that as a question to figure out which one is real i think! (referring to one of the things that Emily was upset with at the beginning)
i think maybe spencer had given him the book in a previous season and alex was referring to that when giving it to him this season. but i also don’t remember
I would buy this explanation, we’re still over here racking our brains how she knew what book lol
Thank you both for answering all my questions so thoughtfully! I loved going through this series with the both of you. Now for The Perfectionists, prepare to be disappointed majorly. It got cancelled with no resolve. :( PS you guys were really funny in this episode
Thank you so much, we had a great time answering! At least I can be prepped for nothing resolving lol
A lot of people feel similarly about Hanna as Brenton does, that they ruined her character, made her whiny/annoying. I’m a Hanna/Caleb/Haleb apologist so they could never make me hate them but I understand the criticism. Omg Tanner ANNOYS me. When Lucy was on Jake Shane’s podcast, she said Aria went to a rage room in an episode and I was like girl? 😂 Do you mean the multiple times she trashed people’s places? Her dad’s office, Ezra’s apartment, the baby’s room? If I’m not mistaken, the only girl who went to an actual rage room was Hanna when her mom took her to a place to throw plates. My mom and I are going to TX for a couple concerts this summer and we will be going to a Rainforest Cafe near Dallas! We haven’t been in years since most of them have closed.
To Aria, every room is a potential rage room
Do you know when you’ll film your final episode (if you haven’t already)? I’m going to try to email you some questions in the next day or so if it’s not too late.
That timing definitely works! Tomorrow’s episode will have a call for questions, so we’ll give people a few days to write in. I’ve already seen the finale now so don’t worry about spoilers.
I loved the chaotic energy you guys gave off this episode 😂
I don’t think I realized while watching but when you said locker 214 here, I was like 214? As in that random number that was getting thrown around in season one? It was the room number of the motel where Jenna was playing the flute and there was something about a bag. It was also Caleb’s locker combo. Weird that it came up again but it seemingly has no further meaning.
You’re so right! WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
@@pylein probably nothing 😂
Paige has several bad moments but the thing that made me hate her character was her telling the police Ali was alive after Emily begged her not to
It’s awful! The show makes it so hard to root for her
Yes, the board game! Finally!
Question: I’m won’t spoil it for you but curious you saw the ending but you don’t know who the baby’s father is?
Idk what baby you’re referring to (I assume Ali’s?) but please don’t elaborate. I only remember the ad twist from the episode. It was the only episode I saw before we started this podcast so the majority of it didn’t stick in my brain
@@Dead_ends okay. I understand.
Even though I like Aria and Ezra the show did drop the ball. They really never gave them good drama to me and they treated Aria like her character is only important in relationships. We never really see her single. We see Ezra single but never Aria, except 6A. Emily is the same way, she’s the character I’m most mad about. They screwed her up as well. They screwed Alison up as well. I don’t understand why anyone wants Emily and Alison together. The same one that hate Aria and Erza should hate Emily and Alison as well.
Agreed! Not here for Emison
Hello, with you being a first time watcher but I think you said you watched the finale before, I think you should stick to no spoilers.
I enjoy the personal anecdotes so I really don’t mind any story tangents. :) Omg I’m glad you mentioned something is going on with Google. I didn’t know anything changed but my mom and I are on a road trip and we’re having such a hard time with Google. If we search “food near me” for example, it will show us a top result like 2 minutes away and we’re like ok perfect, click go, it will say it’s like 2 hrs and 40 mins away.
It’s gotten so much worse I hate it! Emily was looking up the PLL episodes for next week and showed me it’s “quick facts” section which included who AD was and that Shauna was the gunman? Neither was relevant to the episode at all.
You both aren’t the only people that like Jason and Aria. But I see the fandom is very split of this couple.
You all like Jason and Aria. Someone older, filmed underage girls, and had those creepy pictures of Aria, because I don’t for one minute believe the Alison we know took those pictures. I find that interesting given that you both despise Erza for being older, the book, and being her teacher when they started dating.
Yes correct I much prefer Jason
Elle kings dad is Rob Schneider
O no I hope she’s not like her dad at least
I had no idea!!!
I’m on the same page with Emily where I thought the majority of what this season is about hasn’t even happened yet
lol that’s so funny. I truly have no idea what you two could possibly be referring to
@@Dead_ends I just looked at the PLL wiki and found that the thing I’m thinking about starts in the first episode of 7B so things should pick up here soon!
I had to do a quick Google the other day bc I was like WHERE IS THE NEW PLOT
@@pylein literally, it seems like nothing is happening in these episodes, do something, A!
two alternate ships I wish the show explored at the beginning: noel & aria mike & hanna they were long-lasting relationships in the books and had interesting dynamics (& far more appropriate in aria’s case)
My fav ship will always be Haleb I also kind of liked Aria with Ezra’s brother What if Jenna just knows things because of social media? Lol The girls seem to think she can’t read because she’s blind so I wouldn’t be surprised if Hanna specifically was like well yeah I posted my engagement all over ig but Jenna wouldn’t know that, she’s blind
Lollll truly would not put it past Hanna. They’re so out of pocket with how they treat Jenna
I’m dying 😂 Hanna’s like #engaged on her public page.
I always wanted Spencer and Ezra. You’re biased and just don’t like Ezra. If you follow the show thinking you would like him or at least be tolerable of him more. Just my opinion
Aria being kidnapped is what ruffled her, she has recovered from that. I think she feels whenever she is happy A ruin things and the “Liars” make situations worse.
I meant she hasn’t recovered from that
Hi, well the sympathy vote for Alison worked. I hate this version of Alison. They made her weak and pathetic from my view. I miss old Alison.
sameeee. im hopeful though we got a lil bit of old alison back in these episodes
Congratulations on the move! Took a second for my brain to be okay with you guys on different sides 😂
lol we don’t know how we feel about it either
Unpopular opinion: I actually don’t mind what they did with Ali’s character. I understand the criticism that they made her soft but she grew up, felt bad about her past, tried to be a better person, but still had moments where she would revert back to being mean and manipulative. I’m glad she had some growth, but at the same time, her more mature self is not a complete departure from her as a child and teen. Congrats on the new place btw!
I’d be more ok with Ali if they kept a bit more of her edge. She was absolutely horrible but those same traits kept her alive. Of course I’d prefer if she just stayed a manipulator lol Thank you so much!
He wanted to know who killed Alison.
Are you referring to Fitz?
@@Dead_ends yes per dialogue on the show and interviews conducted during the airing of season 4, he was writing the book to find out what happened to Alison. He thought one of the girls did it originally after research he thought Spencer, Mrs D, and Cece were somewhat involved.
O yes that’s why he eventually passes the book to Aria since it might have clues
@@Dead_ends he wasn’t writing it be a he was in love with Alison. They weren’t in love.
I mean you don’t investigate someone’s murder if you don’t care about them, but writing the book was definitely more self centered
The lack of urgency that all the friends had in trying to free Hanna enraged me! Especially Aria. Of course Spencer has learned multiple languages on the app. I’ve got a 592 day streak on Duolingo and I’m nowhere close to finishing the course. To be fair, I sometimes just do the bare minimum to maintain the streak. 😂
It’s so funny, Aria sits in the bar for two seconds and decides her work is done. Any work is good work that’s an amazing streak!
@@Dead_ends thanks!
I think Aria is the biggest cheater, I think she has cheated on ALL her partner's at some point. But her and Hanna love to just kiss a man (yes, man, not boy). Remember when Hanna kissed that grown ass cop, I forget his name, the one who later on is in cahoots with Ali? But this one where Hanna and Caleb cheat is by far the worst, even though I like Haleb, but this puts a big shadow on their relationship
Aria an absolute mess for sure. Haleb made the worst mistake though and involved a main character of the show
Please make predictions on who you think will be the next person to die (and how /why /who killed them), Brenton!
I wrote this comment right when you released the new episode apparently 😄
lol I was just coming to say I think i do make some predictions in this new episode so good timing on your part
When it comes to political and economic aspects this show is terrible and I wish they would have not even tried to bring more apparent political issues into it at all because they just don't handle it well. Regarding the class consciousness, it's also so weird. They are all so well off but don't really acknowledge it. We have the plot about Hanna and Ashley and their money problems early on, but they live in this giant house, drive new cars etc so I never felt that bad for them. Caleb wasn't well off, but then they had to make him rich too with his mom having lots of money.. also remember how Spencer talked about Caleb at the beginning when they first met him? She made snide remarks about him being poor and judged him due to his economic situation and him being in the foster system.. That's a big part why I don't really like them together. I know she was young and probably evolved, but it seems weird regardless. Also interesting how we never really see Spencer acknowledge her privileges of being raised in this extremely wealthy, powerful family.. I think someone said it in the show - there is rich and then there is Hastings rich.
Ya there’s 0 material reality in the show outside of being upper class. I think the Marins are a good example of what the show actually understands which is the pressure of keeping up appearances in an upper class community. Mostly don’t mind the show being about rich people but occasionally there’s a bit of friction.
Yeah it just gets a bit annoying that so many shows are always about rich upper class people.. in this case I also don't really mind because I'm watching for the mystery and the drama, but some parts like the Caleb plotline annoy me, they could have left him poor and derive some plots out of it and address the dichotomy between him and the rest of the characters..
I feel like the writers forgot what Toby's character is like somewhere along the way. I feel like the Toby of the later seasons has pretty much nothing in common with the early seasons Toby. Remember "it's okay to be different, I like different" Toby? Soft Toby that cried in an alleyway after two kids ran screaming from him? Now all of a sudden he likes traditional, he likes normal? It makes no sense to me. I still can't get over him becoming a cop and staying one. Excuse me Sir, remember how the copwls mitreated you and made you an outcast? And did the same to your girlfriend and friends??
The constant drop of designer things drove me insane in the books
It is pretty much every other sentence
I also wake up angry, Emily!
I’ve wondered about why they chose to dress as Wilden as well and they only thing I could come up with was they have a similar build and it’s someone she knows who is dead lol When you said this was a direct quote from Emily and mentioned Jojo Siwa I thought you were quoting character Emily at first and I was like I don’t remember that lol I was cracking up at the Brinser bit lol at first I did think Brenton was combining his name with Spencer 😂 Did you guys see Sasha is going to be in a movie where she plays twins? Somebody in casting was not giving up on the idea of Ali as a twin.
That’s so good, if they make the movie like the two sides of Ali that we see over the show (manipulator and victim) thatll be a home run. I just looked it up and the tagline is incredible.
