This PLL spin-off is so bad, it's hard to know where to begin. I am a huge fan of supernatural dramas, but this show doesn't make any sense. First of all, I have seen every episode of PLL and always thought of it as a mystery/drama and have not thought about the series from a supernatural angle whatsoever. How can you make a spin-off centered around ghosts and evil spirits when these types of elements do not (or aren't supposed to) exist in the original show? Am I now led to believe that there are supernatural elements in PLL? These are not questions fans should have to ask themselves during the 4th season of a series.
The way Ravenswood became a spin-off doesn't make sense either. Hanna (who is being stalked and harassed by "A" on a fairly consistent basis) sends her boyfriend (who has been focused on protecting her) off to a creepy town to "look after" Miranda (a girl neither one of them knows). The main plot of the show thus far is that these 5 teens have been marked for death, and are trying to figure a way out of it. I have an interest in Caleb staying alive, because I care about his character. There is no reason why I should/would care about any of the other people in Ravenswood. There is absolutely no character development, just side plots that make the show seem messy and confusing. The fact that almost all of the actors are horrible is icing on the cake. Is it really that hard to drop their Canadian accents?
The only reason I have kept watching Ravenswood is because I didn't want to be lost when it came to crossover episodes. Unfortunately, I'm still lost. I hope the show gets canceled and that Tyler Blackburn (Caleb) will go back to playing a regular on PLL. Although, I'm not sure how that can happen now that he has developed a sixth sense and ghosts are not supposed to exist in PLL universe. Ravenswood is a disaster!
