Pretty Little Liars : Les Perfectionnistes

The pilot gives us a taste of what is to come. There are high expectations for any PLL fan. Creator Marlene King smoothly integrates characters Alison and Mona into the new setting of Beacon Heights. A gorgeous setting punctuated by the beautiful scenery of Portland Oregon. Kelly Rutherford (Gossip Girl/Melrose Place) shows up to bring a level of sophistication to the proceedings. New PLL Sofia Carson stands out as the composed yet wounded Ava. The show brings a darker more mature sensibility than the predecessor's early episodes.

Ultimately we are dealing with a murder mystery that suggests something much bigger and wilder is at hand. Whether the show can sustain the suspense and intrigue that PLL is known for has yet to be seen. Time will tell. For now I say game on.

PLL Perfectionists has the same vibe and feeling to the original, so I would recommend it if you're a PLL fan. It does fall a bit flat in terms of character development and plot. The show uses the same formula as the previous show, in my opinion. But, I'm still willing to give it a chance if season 2 comes out!

I started watching this show without any expectations since i didn't like Pretty little liars, and I was actually surprised in a positive way. The acting was much better than pll and the plot had enough mystery without all the unnecessary drama that happened on pll.

However, since there will be no second season the first season isn't even worth watching.

The Perfectionist was surprisingly better than expected and I already expected a lot from it. They didn't take Mona's insanity away, they kept Allison's past a big part of her narrative and they brought in new characters that are very different from the original PLL cast all whilst making us feel like we've known them for a long time.

I think Freeform has something amazing on their hands and I hope I keep feeling that way as the season progresses

This series could have been SO amazing, had it followed the exact path of the book! I mean, the book was so good, I think I liked these ''series'' even better than PLL! But, unfortunately, they chosed a different way and it kind of sucks. I am going to give it a shot because of sentimental reasons, but if something doesn't radically change in the next episodes (e.g this LAME chemistry between the main characters), I am sure we won't have a second season.
