Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin (2022)

Watchseries; Okay, I see a lot of people complaining about how different the show is compared to the original. Let me say something to y'all: THATS THE POINT! A reboot means a new start, that's why we have new characters, new storylines and a new villain! In the original show, it was all about the drama and mystery. This one is about the horror and thriller. We have some nuances from PLL such as the villain called A and a b*tch blond girl beeing murder. So far the show has a unique way, and if you loved the creepier 'PLL' episodes or any of the specials, it's a must-watch for you!

Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin watchseries. Looked good in trailer. Tried it out and couldn't even complete the first episode. So dumb. These annoying sudden flashback scenes constantly. Way too much. Pass. Next.

Having grown up with the original, this new show/reboot does an amazing job at following on the legacy that the original left behind. I love the fact that they have included a horror esque type of vibe to the show, as some of the reviewers stated the only thing that the original PLL needed more of was a horror element. I can't wait to see more of this show!!! Would highly recommend it :)

The verdict is still out on this one. Some points are interesting but the constant scare music with a brief flash back is so repetitive it became annoying. Not nearly as interesting as the original. The original was amazing in its early seasons. This one doesn't hook you in. The girls don't have secrets that can destroy their lives like the original so they don't live in constant fear of those secrets being exposed. The other one also had the very original and interesting factor of "A". This one feels more like Mike Myers in Halloween (High-school Edition). I also agree with another reviewer that kids do not speak like this. I haven't heard teens use terms like "gnarley" since almost ever. Also, obviously bullies still exist in highschools and there are always going to be the popular groups, but must all teen shows have the stereotypical mean girl in a mini skirt and cropped cardi outfit with the jock boyfriend on her arm in a letterman jacket. Do teens even dress like that anymore? No. They haven't for more than a decade, maybe even two. Would have been better and a neat twist if the teens were not introduced and the story focused on the adults after what happened in the 90s and left the teenage drama behind. They could have realistically introduced more adult themes. I'll hang in there a couple more episodes and see how it goes. So far HBO is struggling remaking the early 2000-2010 teen series because Gossip Girl and PLL are not great.

Let me just say the director of Sabrina and Riverdale is also giving us this "masterpiece". Both Sabrina and Riverdale had potential and suddenly went down hill by season 2. Knowing this, I gave it a fair shot regardless of his bad reputation because I was a fan of PLL. This new show, however, started out with horrible writing and bad acting, so I can only imagine what a season 2 might bring (and I hope it doesn't get that far.)

First off, it's nothing like the original so don't get your hopes up in that regard. There's nothing that draws a person in to each character and it can get confusing since some of the characters look very similar. (Oh, and it was a little cliché to name the antagonist Karen lol)

Bottom line: if you're trying to outperform or at least make a show equally as amazing as the original, hire a great cast and better writers. But I guess it was expected with the director this show was given.

So if you like PLL, just rewatch the og series.

*Insert movie reference* This show is clearly written by people who have no idea how kids talk or act. Shocking I know, yet another teen show written by out-of-touch adults.

*Insert movie reference* The "relationships" are all so incredibly dull that every second spent on these hollow boyfriends is a waste or life.

*Insert movie reference* None of the main characters are interesting either. There's so little worth paying attention to here. The killer is neither scary nor intriguing.

Oh and almost forgot, let me *insert movie reference* here so I can do the show justice. The character of Tabitha is one of the worst written teenagers ever put to screen.
