If you watched the “Pretty Little Liars” ChristmAs special, then you probably caught the promo for MTV’s upcoming show “Eye Candy.” All we knew about the show before seeing the commercial was that it starred Victoria Justice, filmed in NYC, and was based on an R.L. Stine book. But after watching the perfectly creepy preview, we think we might have just found another PLL-worthy show to obsess over. (Or, at least a replacement for our beloved “Twisted.” R.I.P.) Watch the promo for “Eye Candy” below!
The show premieres on MTV on January 12th at 10pm. We’re excited to see our girl Victoria back on screen! She’s been busy filming nonstop since wrapping up the Summer Break Tour with Big Time Rush last year. While we hope one day she’ll decide to relaunch her music career (Billboard agrees!), we’re looking forward to “Eye Candy” and her upcoming movie “Naomi and Ely’s No Kiss List.”
One of our favorite things about summer is ABC Family’s lineup! This of course includes the return of “Pretty Little Liars” tonight! But as much as we love this show, we’re often frustrated by the amount of questions that go unanswered. Here’s what we’ve been dying to know since that crazy cliffhanger in March! Let’s see how many are answered this season…
1. Is Mr. Fitz (our favorite character) alive? We are going to go with yes, since the PLL account posted a picture of Fitzy on their Twitter page. BUT he could always be filming a flashback, and you never know with this show! We’re hoping he’s alive, but even more than that we’re hoping this isn’t dragged out for more than the first 5 minutes of the premiere (It will be).
2. Speaking of Fitz, is he really evil? We’ve been asking this question since last year, so we think it’s about time we got some REAL answers here. (We so don’t buy that whole “writing a detective novel story.”) We’ve always thought something HAD to be wrong with him, and as we found out he was very creepily involved with Allison (boardshorts!) But we need more answers! And more Fitzy screen time!
3. Who will be the resident hot new guy? There is one every season, and we’re looking forward to meeting the new one. The PLL casting department does an outstanding job. Where do they find these boys?
4. Now that Caleb is done talking to the ghost of Macy Misa in Ravenswood, can he please come back to Rosewood?
5. We need more scenes with Toby. Where is he? Is he still with Spencer? We can’t keep up. Also we just thought of the time that Toby (Keegan Allen) was on Big Time Rush modeling with James Maslow, and now we’ve just realized how much we’d love to see him on Dancing With the Stars…
6. Where is Jenna? Did she run off with Jackson from Hannah Montana? We feel like she probably has some answers that she’s withholding from us.
7. How do these girls have perfect hair all the time? Between school and work (not that we’ve ever seen anyone crack a book), and you know, being stalked by a team of crazy psychopaths, how do they find the time? If it were us, we would be a HOT MESS.
8. WHY DOESN’T ANYONE JUST TELL THEIR PARENTS / A RESPONSIBLE ADULT / ANOTHER HOT MALE AUTHORITY FIGURE / ETC THAT THEY ARE BEING STALKED BY A?!?
Tune in to ABC Family at 8pm Tuesday, June 10th to watch “Pretty Little Liars” season 4 premiere and find out if any of our questions are answered!
We were sad when we found out Gregg Sulkin wouldn’t be returning to “Pretty Little Liars,” but at least it was because he was busy filming a new series, “Faking It.” The show premieres tonight on MTV!
We’ve been fans of Gregg since his appearance in the iconic “Pass the Plate” series on Disney Channel. “Nothing warms your tum like soup made by your mum!” And of course his role as Selena Gomez’s werewolf/boyfriend on “Wizards of Waverly Place.”
If you’re in NYC, Gregg Sulkin will be doing a meet & greet at Planet Hollywood in Times Square today at 5pm! Check Gregg’s Twitter for more updates. We’d love to go and ask if he has any spinach soup, but we’ll be seeing Jackson Guthy and 5SOS a couple of blocks away!
Check out the trailer for “Faking It” below & be sure to watch on MTV tonight at 10:30pm!
Earlier this year, before the Winter Premiere of Pretty Little Liars, we posted some questions we wanted answered before the end of the season. Let’s see how they’ve done so far.
1. Is Mr. Fitz (our favorite character) really evil? Or is he just faking being a member of the A-team, like Toby? Although we’ve been saying all along Mr Fitz is so perfect something HAS to be wrong with him, so it wouldn’t surprise us if he has been A all this time… Answered?: NO. And we still don’t buy this whole “I’m just writing a detective novel” story…
2. What happened to Gregg Sulkin, Mr. Fitz’s little brother? (He will always be Gregg to us thanks to this commercial from Disney) Nothing warms your tum like soup made by your mum! Answered?: NO. Gregg has been filming another TV show, but the reason for his character’s departure was never answered in the show.
3. Can we have more shirtless scenes with Jason? Answered?: Yes! He finally reappeared in last weeks episode, so he’s got one more chance to take it off!
4. Where is Toby? I don’t think we see enough of him, and we would like more. Has he been modeling? Answered?: Not enough Toby! We have no idea where he is. Does he go to school? Does he have a job? We forgot.
5. What ever happened to that cute guy, Andrew, from the decathlon team that Spencer was playing “strip study” with? Answered?: He came back! He’s the one that got Spencer re-hooked on drugs!
6. How do the girls have time to do their hair every morning? When do they do their homework? How do they have so much time before school? We could barely get dressed and out the door before the first bell! Answered?: WE STILL HAVE NO IDEA. Although props for making Spencer look realistically tired/how a drug addicted high school student who is being stalked by an unnamed physchopath should look for a few episodes!
7. Is Caleb going to come back from Ravenswood? We tried watching that show and gave up after 1.5 episodes, so we have no idea. We hope Macy Misa is okay. Answered?: Yes, because it seems the rest of America and ABC Family gave up on Ravenswood too, and it was canceled. And someone just told us Macy Misa was a ghost on this show. So, welcome back to Rosewood, Caleb! Sorry Hanna has been kissing literally every single male she’s spoken to since you left!
8. WHY DOESN’T ANYONE JUST TELL THEIR PARENTS / A RESPONSIBLE ADULT / MR FITZ / ANOTHER HOT MALE ADULT FIGURE / ETC THAT THEY ARE BEING STALKED BY A?!? Answered?: Last week’s episode was the first time we’d seen multiple parental units in one episode this season, with the exception of Mrs. DiLaurentis (who may or may not be A). So, No.
Tune in to ABC Family at 8pm Tuesday, March 18th to watch “Ali Tell All.” But will she answer any of OUR questions? Probably not, but we’ll tune in anyway.
Two major things to be excited about this week: we’re nearly halfway through February! Which mean’s it’s almost summer, right? And, more importantly, “Twisted” returns this week! The show, which premiered on ABC Family over the summer, is back with all new episodes and the conclusion to it’s freshman season. While we will watch pretty much anything that airs on The CW or ABC Family, we have to admit that “Twisted” is a notch or two above the rest.
Maybe it’s because it reminds us of The Greatest Show of All Time, AKA “The OC.” Why you ask?
Danny (aka Beck aka Avan Jogia) is Ryan Atwood. Like Ryan, Danny has that brooding outsider thing down to a T, and a knack for greeting people with a punch in the jaw instead of a hello. Maybe a habit they picked up in juvy? Both were also given nicknames “Chino” (Ryan) and “Socio” (Danny) – just in case they forgot where they came from, and share a similar dry sense of humor. (“They let you watch Glee in prison?” “It was part of our punishment.”)
Rico (Ashton Moio) is Seth Cohen. Really, we think that Ashton studied old episodes of “The OC” to prepare for his role as Rico, because he has that witty, sarcastic, fast-talking, cute nerdy thing Adam Brody is famous for perfected. Rico also has a longtime secret crush, and a tendency to say whatever he is thinking, no matter how awkward things may get. His gradual bonding with Danny is also pretty adorable to watch, and we’re hoping it grows into a bromance to rival Seth & Ryan’s.
Lacey (Kylie Bunbury) is Marissa Cooper. Most popular girl in school who seems to have it all, but is actually bored by it all, has a secret about her father, falls for the bad boy, do we see a pattern here? The only thing she is missing is using a Chanel tote bag as a backpack.
Jo (Maddie Hasson) is a female Seth Cohen. Unlike the rest of the community, Jo immediately welcomes Danny and the return of his friendship. She’s willing to stand up for him, no matter what, and doesn’t worry what that might mean for her reputation. A scene in the pilot, where Danny rescues a drunk Jo from a party, by punching the popular jock in the face, reminds us of the infamous “Welcome to The OC, bitch!” beach party scene.
Karen Desai (Denise Richards) is Julie Cooper-Nichol-Cooper-Atwood-we lost track. It’s only been a half season, and we’ve already seen that Karen Desai is more than capable of rivaling Julie Cooper’s wheeling and dealing. The biggest thing they have in common, and are often misunderstood for, is that they’d do anything for their children. There was also some sort of love triangle going on with Jo’s parents, and Danny’s, that gave us serious flashbacks to the Sandy-Kirsten-Jimmy-Julie romantic rhombus of yore. (We’ll be honest, we don’t pay much attention to the “parent plot lines” on these shows. Unless Sandy Cohen is involved.)
Tess Masterson (Kimberley Quinn) is Kirsten Cohen. She dated Mr. Desai in high school, and Karen has always been jealous of this. (See above romantic rhombus!) It’s been a while since we took the SATs, but an analogy would be Tess:Mr. Desai as Kirsten:Jimmy Cooper.
Archie (Grey Damon) is Luke Ward. Danny’s punching bag of choice, Archie knows just what to say to push Danny’s buttons. The popular jock is also dating Lacey, until she dumps him for Danny. Still waiting to see if he’ll pull a Luke-like transition.
Mr. Masterson (Sam Robards) is Nate Archibald’s dad, The Captain! This has nothing to do with “The OC,” but just sharing in case you were wondering why you recognized him.
Check out the trailer for the rest of the season below. You can catch up on the first 11 episodes of Twisted on Netflix, or during the all-day marathon on ABC Family February 11th. Don’t miss the premiere following Pretty Little Liars, Tuesday at 9pm!
Let’s face it: January is a rough time. The holidays are over, it’s cold, no vacation in the foreseeable future, and all we want to do is just hibernate until spring. So, we like to focus on the good things that do happen in January, like the return of Pretty Little Liars!
(If you aren’t caught up with the show yet, we’d suggest to stop reading. You’ve been warned)
The show left off with a major cliffhanger — Allison, whom we’d believed to have been dead since the show started, was alive! We think so, at least. This show has so many twists and turns, we don’t know what to believe anymore.
Here are some questions we’d like answered this season:
1. Is Mr. Fitz (our favorite character) really evil? Or is he just faking being a member of the A-team, like Toby? Although we’ve been saying all along Mr Fitz is so perfect something HAS to be wrong with him, so it wouldn’t surprise us if he has been A all this time…
2. What happened to Gregg Sulkin, Mr. Fitz’s little brother? (He will always be Gregg to us thanks to this commercial from Disney) Nothing warms your tum like soup made by your mum!
3. Can we have more shirtless scenes with Jason?
4. Where is Toby? I don’t think we see enough of him, and we would like more. Has he been modeling?
5. What ever happened to that cute guy, Andrew, from the decathlon team that Spencer was playing “strip study” with?
6. How do the girls have time to do their hair every morning? When do they do their homework? How do they have so much time before school? We could barely get dressed and out the door before the first bell!
7. Is Caleb going to come back from Ravenswood? We tried watching that show and gave up after 1.5 episodes, so we have no idea. We hope Macy Misa is okay.
8. WHY DOESN’T ANYONE JUST TELL THEIR PARENTS / A RESPONSIBLE ADULT / MR FITZ / ANOTHER HOT MALE ADULT FIGURE / ETC THAT THEY ARE BEING STALKED BY A?!?
I guess then we wouldn’t have a show, so we’ll just play along!
While we look up our favorite photos of Mr Fitz, check out the trailer for the new season below.
Watch the premiere on Tuesday, January 7th at 8pm, and catch up during the all day marathon on ABC Family!
