And now, for something completely different

Pretty Little Liars is an absolutely terrible/awesome show on ABC Family. Tonight, I'm going to give live-blogging a try as I share with you the deets of the latest episodes.

8:00 Important backgrounds. They're all sexually confused and accused of something bad pertaining to what may or may not have been the death of a girl who may or may not have been a good friend.

8:03 Spencer just admited that she lied to the cops. And then they all confessed that they did the same. The cops have been asking a lot of questions about her brother-in-law who's the suspect in question. It also turns out that she hooked up with them, which all the girls just lied about. And now their old cop friend is being enlisted to turn on them.

8:04 That opening is confusing. "'Cause two can keep a secret if one of them is dead," the closing line, is ominous,but then also inconsistent with the facts that form the basis of the show: five best friends caught in a web of lies, the meaneast one's dead/disappeared, and now an anonymous/ominous person is leveraging the dirt she had on all of them. There are five people, a gagillion secrets, and it's not even clear if one of them is dead. But they all look really pretty and have awesome hair.

8:09 Spencer, now appearing a bit suspect as her accusations for her brother-in-law blew up in her face, is being encouraged to enter therapy by her parents. Advice: Maybe talk with your damn kid.

8:10 Oh! Look, we're in a locker room was some hot, sexually confused high school girls. Wonder what might happen? Advice: Let's all face our demons, this time with more passion and some first-base action. Thx, ABC Family.

8:14 Hannah's been sneaking a boy in her basement. Like living there. And making out and stuff. Her mother doesn't seem to have a clue because she's an uninvolved and self-absorbed idiot.

8:16 It makes me uncomfortable that Aria's name is so close in pronounced so similar to "area"--like the zones on a girl's body that her high school English teacher shouldn't be touching.

8:22 Really? A blind girl sneaks up on her? She's carrying a walking stick and tapping it on the floor. #notbuyingit.

8:26 Hannah's busted, but is "we don't lie to each other" really the best her mom can do as a punitive line? She was perfectly willing to lie when she stole $50K from a customer at her bank.
