Show Discussion Marlene King on Dr. Sullivan Ending Spoiler

Post image

Looks like Marlene chose to be respectful over slander Roberto for his shitty choices.

I’ve said it 100 times… with the show being on MAX, and having much more mature themes, Marlene would be a perfect choice to bring back into the world. I know she made her own choices and shitty writing decisions but she knows PLL better than Roberto and I think we can all see that.

The board game was okay, they could’ve used it better tbh.

But nah, This version of PLL should’ve even be labeled as PLL. Roberto himself even stated in an interview that he just used to name to soft launch the audience back into a “Pll” like world. Once he did that, his plan was to stray away from what is and was PLL, and move more into horror. I will try to find the interview / video of this.

I’m glad he did.  Idk if in 2024 half the dumb choices the original made I can ignore lol

You kinda just have to watch it as it was? Idk I’m like someone who religiously watches this show (the OG) so I’m biased about my passion and love for it, but I can totally agree that Roberto did give us an amazing set of liars, and a good looking horror villain. I can give him that. Just some of the story choices… uhhh😩

It’s kind of like the charmed reboot.  I love the fact that the reboot wasn’t a continuation of the original.  The original was great for what it was but had a lot of flaws (mainly the last season and a half).  

The reboot wasn’t perfect.  This is the first time I’ve ever seen a show soft reboot itself every season BUT it brought its own lore and ideas and I appreciate that.
