While I mostly enjoyed this series...there are still a few things wrong with this show. The mystery of what happened 23 years ago keeps the viewer intrigued. All throughout you're just desperate to know what these mamas did that was so bad to make Angela kill herself. Ok, so this show delves into a lot of controversial topics like rape, racism, suicide, drugs, etc....so it didn't need to be shy when coming up with storylines of what the bullies did to Angela. What they did to her was weak. It didn't really balance the story for me. I felt they could have gone a little bit darker there. It's a horror show after all. Give us some horror! Between episodes 1-9 only three people were killed. When the killer was revealed; it was a bit of a cop out for me..that was very disappointing. Having a secret sibling or twin is a horror trope that's been done so many times. They needed a fresh idea. And I felt like the last episode was really rushed. Some of the writing is a bit off and the dialogue quite cringworthy. Like you know people wouldn't talk like that in reality. The acting was mostly good, not perfect but good.
I did like the original PLL tie in with them visiting Rosewood, the bookshop and the mention of Aria and Ezra.
Lots of movie references which I loved. The scene with Angela and her mother was very reminiscent of Carrie. Loved that.
Not sure if this will be renewed but if it is, I'd like brand new characters and a new storyline.
