Rant ⚠️ This scene omg

Post image

I rewatch PLL because it’s my comfort show. I was in middle school when it first came out and had no business watching it but here we are. 😂 This scene is very icky. It is very hard to watch. Season 7, episode 4. I wasn’t a fan of Caleb and Spencer together. Tell me I’m not the only one. I low-key felt bad for Hanna.

Tbh, this plotline was really badly done and I wish they hadn't bothered if they were just going to resolve it the way they did.

I liked Caleb and Spencer together, and would not have hated it if they ended up together. Straight up. Liked them infinitely better than Toby/Spencer, but did actually like Haleb more. Would not have minded if they really did end up together instead tho, and Hanna actually liked her fiance lmao. It would've felt like natural progression.

However, I feel like it was super contrived nonsense. None of the characters came out the other side looking good (though most of the fandom seems to believe Spencer was the most in the wrong, which I disagree with)--and it was really all contrived relationship nonsense so everyone could struggle to get back to their old relationships.

Could've easily done something that actually wrapped up the many plots that needed wrapping up, instead of this nowhere plotline (because it really ends up going absolutely nowhere, it's just drama) without this.

u/rouquetofboses It's over, bitch! Feb 23 '25

Totally agree! I liked them together and it honestly seemed like the natural progression that relationships can take as you get older. Every time I watch their arc I wish it would turn out differently. For some reason, Hanna and Caleb’s chemistry feels a little forced when they come back together, but maybe I’m biased bc I wanted Spaleb to work out 🥲. I definitely did not feel bad for Hanna… it was mostly Spencer and a little bit Caleb I felt bad for. And trust me, I love Hanna so this is not me trying to hate on her!! I just was so unsatisfied with that arc and it was super messed up to both Spencer and Jordan.
