I could not agree more with everything here. Rachel's father was shown last season to be a pretty smart man with the ability to read people and sense their motivations. How the fuck did that translate into ORPHAN JOKES?

WAY TOO MUCH RACHEL AND MIKE. JUST, NO. BAD SHOW.

this episode was ridiculous and I sort of loved it. just, on the "how dumb can we act this week" meter, it was a watershed, a battle royale. total stupidity all around. FANTASTIC.

WHAT? I NEED HELP REACTING TO SOMETHING.

absolutely. they'd settle this bullshit in an afternoon, all while wearing nantucket red cocktail wear.

this show might as well be called pretty little liars with fabulous hair and grown up apartments.

yes. this is my dream. with lots of Donna sass along the way.

…but the hair was *so* fantastic. as was her necklace.

Everyone on my twitter feed was debating whether it was Mike, Ezra, or some unknown A minion. I thought it was left intentionally vague..

I seriously can't stand him. Why hasn't A offed him yet?

as much as I like Spencer Grammer, Spencer Hastings. always.

I thought this episode was okay, although it mostly highlighted the fact that I long for a tv show where Veronica Mars and Spencer Hastings wander through college being sassy and just so *over it*. conversely, I'd also accept a Greek/PLL crossover, where Spencer has to face off with Frannie at her evilest. I know…

I also could care less about the love triangle, which is nice. less of that, more of Avan Jorgia's barely concealed creepiness.

At first I watched it because the remote was too far away but now I'm mildly entertained and curious. The acting isn't great, even when compared to PLL standards, but the lead guy is quite good at keeping you guessing whether he's a complete socio or just a *misunderstood* socio. And I read rumors Denise Richards is…

Not only are they dating but they spend half their time being adorable and witty together on twitter and tumblr. IT'S TOO MUCH.

he has a mass of tween fangirls on twitter who think he's super dreamy. I think they are too busy staring at his abs to care about his line delivery.

Noel Kahn! and creepy Wren! and shirtless Jason! and Decathlon-tastic Andrew! more of them, please.

SERIOUSLY. his acting has been so terrible since day 1. it sort of worked when they went with the whole plot of 'he's part of Team A!' bc then I could rationalize that his terrible acting was related to Toby being a horrible actor and sucky emoter. but since that proved to be a fake out, there's just no excuse for his…

Spencer narrating the video while she records Melissa discovering the mask was pretty priceless. And it was also a good episode in general for Team Sparia. For me, Spencer just makes Aria so much more likable.

episode definitely needed more Ali flashbacks.
