Pretty Little Liars

Every Wednesday night, I'm in front of my cousin's lap top (well, every night actually, haha!), watching the American television series entitled Pretty Little Liars. It is based on the popular series of novels written by Sara Shepard. Its pilot episode for the first season aired on June 8, 2010 on ABC Family. The first season has 22 episodes and the second one has 25. The third season is now on its 6th episode, airing tonight. :)

"Never trust a pretty girl with an ugly secret."
Why do I like this show? First, it falls under the mystery-thriller genre. I like the feeling of excitement or thrill that this show is giving me every time I'm watching it. It makes me jump off my seat and also it makes me use all of my brain cells to solve the mysteries in the story.

Second, it is a teen drama that tells the story of five high school girls; Aria, Hanna, Emily, Spencer and Alison. Their lives changed when their queen bee, Alison went missing. Then, they started receiving messages from a mysterious figure using the name "A", who threatens to expose their secrets. At first, they thought it was Alison, but after she was found dead, they know someone else knows their secrets-- secrets that only the five of them know. The story follows these four girls as they deal with the disappearance and death of their best friend, along with their personal problems or issues.

"Don't get ugly. Get even."
This show doesn't just make me scream or hold my breath, but it makes me fall in love as well. Of course, the girls have their own love lines that makes the show more interesting and fun to watch. There are also family issues in the show that everyone can relate to. It also shows how far you can go for your friends and loved ones.

The music used on the show is also very good. My favorite is the opening song, it's called Secrets by The Pierces. I get excited or thrilled whenever I hear this song. I also love the places where they shoot the scenes; the school where the girls go, their houses, the coffee shops, the party venues, even the cemetery, haha! The production and special effects are also commendable. There are quotable quotes in every episode too. My favorite is Aria's;"Don't look at me! I'm ready to hang a sign: 'Bitch can see!'" This is epic! I laughed so hard when Aria said this. The way she delivered it made the line super funny. :D

What I love most in Pretty Little Liars is none other than the characters. All of the characters are very good, they portray their roles well. They're very convincing. You will love and hate them at the same time. The four main characters; Aria, Hanna, Emily and Spencer are very much loved by the viewers. They have different personalities that anyone can relate to. Their strengths and weaknesses are highlighted in the story, because the mysterious "A" uses them against these girls and the people around them. One more thing that excites me when I watch this show, is the girls' outfits. I look forward to their clothes, hairstyles, accessories, shoes, make up and even their nail color, haha! I love these girls! ❤ Who is my favorite among these liars? Hmm, I can't pick one. No! I love all of them! ^ ^

Now, the show is on its third season. The 6th episode entitled The Remains of the "A" will be aired tonight (I can't wait!). The show is getting more exciting, interesting and fun, because the characters are bringing their own game. 

You can watch the episodes from the 1st to the current season on TV-Links. (I recommend the external link from allmyvideos.net.^ ^)

I think, I said enough, haha! Now you know why I like this show so much. I hope you will check out the episodes and start watching this show. For sure, you'll get hooked!

"Got a secret, can you keep it?"
