Bros Watch PLL Too - A Pretty Little Liars podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Screw it, we’re doing Ravenswood.

Also! The final book in the Trouble: Girl Detective mystery series is out July 1st! Pre-order on Kindle now!

PLL: Original Sin: Summer School is canceled, and the Bros are finally free. It’s been a good ride, but all good things, etc. We’re escaping Mona’s basement and you’ll never catch us again. Also, at the end of this short episode, please enjoy a short reading of Chapter 1 of our new book, Game On, Trouble.

In s02e02 “Summer Lovin” of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin: Summer School, Imogen gets very melodramatic because she can’t sit with her friends in summer school. Noa gets a head start on the bisexual cheater trope with the girl from Do Revenge. Tabby meets a new guy Christian at work, but is reluctant to share her short film and love of horror with him. Mouse spends more time on Spooky Spaghetti. Kelly introduces the concept of technical re-virginity. Faran remains perfect and flawless and unbothered and always winning and being the best.

Got a special surprise for you: the Co-writer of s07e11 Allyson Nelson joins us to discuss “Playtime,” the board game, Holden Strauss, Ian Harding’s soccer play, bad PA gigs, working on Shadow Play and much more. Also, we learn a little bit about that mysterious tuft of red hair from the last A tag…

Recapping Season 7, Episode 11 of Pretty Little Liars. Aria gets terrible advice and starts trying to plan a wedding, even though Ezra is non-communicative and running off to see Nicole, Hanna has no time for A.D. business this week because her OTP Mona has decided to make her a fashion superstar overnight with her rolodex of contacts, Emily is stuck in a lame bitchy love triangle between Ali and Paige at Rosewood High and probably regretting blowing Sabrina off, and Spencer is recovering from her flesh wound to discover her secret origin of being born of hate in a madhouse. A.D. still very much has a head, Jenna walked into a closet somewhere, Holden’s heart could explode at any minute, and Toby is a ghost.

Our casual rewatch comes to an end with Season 7A of Pretty Little Liars. This week we’re squeezing in 704 “Hit and Run, Run, Run,” 707 “Original gAngsters” and 710 “The dArkest Knight.” Spaleb goes down in flames in one of the shows best scenes, Ezra tricks Aria into the kind of wedding he wants, Emily is a bad girlfriend to her three girlfriends, and Hanna has a real dumb plan to figure out who A.D. is. We made it. 711 “Playtime” is hours away. Toby is still dead. Let’s do this.

The guys are closing out Season 6 with rewatches of 611 “Of Late I Think of Rosewood,” 617 “We’ve All Got Baggage,” and 620 “Hush Hush, Sweet Little Liars.” Topics discussed: who gives a better massage, Spaleb, where the liars are at after the time jump, panties, who the heck is Amoji and A.D. and are they the same person? Drunk Melissa Hastings, Wrick Rollins, Ali being the worst, and Ayygs.

We’re getting into the home stretch of our PLL casual rewatch. This time, the Bros are moving through Season 6A, with 601 “Game On, Charles,” 607 “O Brother, Where Art Thou,” and 608 “FrAmed.” After being tortured for three weeks, the liars have escaped the Dollhouse to come home to a slowly developing “who is Charles” season arc. Fortunately, their individual character arcs are much more compelling. Spencer needs drugs to sleep now, Aria is closed off emotionally and taking photos of creepy dolls, Emily has transferred all of her anxieties onto being super overprotective of Shower Harvey, and Hanna is back to remixing her identity again now that A ruined hers.

This week on the casual rewatch, we find the liars with false hope after Ali’s arrest. But soon, that hope spins out of control and ends up with them all kidnapped and in the dollhouse. We’re covering 513 “How the ‘A’ Stole Christmas, 514 “Through a Glass, Darkly,” 518 “Oh, What Hard Luck Stories They All Hand Me,” and 525 “Welcome to the Dollhouse.” How does Ken DiLaurentis afford this massive Christmas Ball? What was the deal with Holbrook? Why Egg? What if Caleb was Obi-Wan? Why isn’t Nolan North in everything? You get the idea.

The Bros are back from PaleyFest, exhausted but in good spirits. We briefly discuss Paley before getting into 505, “Miss Me x 100,” 509 “March of Crimes,” 511 “No One Here Can Love or Understand Me,” and 512 “Taking This One to the Grave.” Classic A return text, #Haunted Caleb, everyone being mean to Hanna, the Liars all turning on Ali, and Mona seemingly being murdered, to die for all us sinners out there as the Vanderjesus.
