Can’t stop thinking about Pretty Little Liars? Neither can we. Here at Bustle, we’ve exhaustively covered the show from every single angle, from the identity of the latest A to every single detail of the Haleb happy ending we’ve all been waiting for to the latest surprising character return.

Season 7, Episode 20: "Till DeAth Do Us Part" Jun 29, 2017

Show notes

That's immortality, my darlings. I. Marlene King may have laid PLL to rest with that series finale, but Sam, Christine, and Allison still have a lot to say. I mean, after seven seasons, how could they not? Join them one last time as they try to make sense of that insane A.D. reveal and how the feel about the series ending, say "I told you so" about their favorite theories (Alex Drake! Wren!) being right, and debate whether or not a PLL spinoff will ever or should ever happen (It definitely shouldn't). And, of course, calling out Aria one last time because how could we resist?

Season 7, Episode 19: "Farewell, My Lovely" Jun 23, 2017

Show notes

With just one week to go, Sam and Christine are not holding back when it comes to how they feel about this lack of answers. They're also getting ready for the finale by calling Aria out while they still can, freaking out over the Mona reveal, and, of course, making their final A.D. predictions. They don't agree about who will be unmasked as the ultimate Big Bad — and neither does Allison — so listen to their theories to see whose side you're on.

Season 7, Episode 18: "Choose or Lose" Jun 16, 2017

Show notes

Once again, Christine and Sam are not impressed with this Mona red herring that's getting more and more ridiculous the closer we get to the series finale. Did we mention that there's only TWO episodes of 'PLL' left? Join them as they talk through Toby's big return (and new look), why Christine is paranoid that she's always seeing Spencer's twin these days, the Haleb wedding, and how we're also "so done" with Aria. And get ready to have your mind blown by Martha's hot take on who A.D. is because it's really anyone's A-game right now.

Season 7, Episode 17: "Driving Miss Crazy" Jun 08, 2017

Show notes

O M G — that's the sound of Christine and Sam attempting to recover from finally getting the Haleb engagement they've been waiting for since surviving Spaleb and the unfortunate Jordan engagement. But, don't worry, they pull it together enough to talk that insane musical scene, debate whether or not the Twincer theory can still stand, and to dissect that cliffhanger — which kind of offended them, TBH. And, naturally, with only 3 episodes left, they have one huge question: Will we ever see Jason Christ again?

Season 7, Episode 16: "The Glove That Rocks the Cradle" Jun 01, 2017

Show notes

Is that the sound of hundreds of theories coming true? Sam and Christine are still trying to wrap their heads around finally seeing Aria in the infamous black hoodie — and debating whether or not she might be the best character to wear A's signature look in 'PLL' history. But, don't worry, they also have A LOT to say about Haleb sleuthing, whether or not Lucas has a motive, and which OTPs we can expect to tie the knot before the series finale. Oh and — in classic Taking This One To The Grave fashion and with the help of Allison — they potentially predict one of the most heartbreaking deaths 'PLL' fans will ever see.

Season 7, Episode 15: "In The Eye Abides The Heart" May 24, 2017

Show notes

Christine and Sam are barely hanging on after yet another Caleb-less episode of 'Pretty Little Liars' — but they still have plenty to say about "In The Eye Abides The Heart," especially the return of WREN. We all know they could spend an entire episode talking about their longstanding Wren theories, but this week, they dig into the Emison baby reveal, Paige and Lucas' A-team motives, and Mona's hilarious feelings about the #Endgame. And last, but certainly not least, Allison drops by to essentially prove that the notorious Spencer twin theory was probably just confirmed.

Season 7, Episode 14: "Power Play" May 11, 2017

Show notes

Prepare yourself — because Sam and Christine have A LOT to say about all of the big reveals in "Power Play". (And the fact that Caleb was MIA this episode because, obviously.) While they talk through the motives of the many A.D. suspects in play, that huge Emison reveal, and how they're so over Paige and Sydney's returns to Rosewood, Allison pops in with a huge, game-changing theory that may have just led our two Haleb-loving hosts to solve the whole mystery of 'PLL'. And they're certainly not taking that revelation to the grave.

Season 7, Episode 13: "Hold Your Piece" May 03, 2017

Show notes

Christine and Sam reunite this week — which is a good thing, because they're still recovering from the panic of Caleb being poisoned. While they try to figure out where the heck Ezra and Alison are, whether or not Nicole has good (or at least innocent) intentions, and how Aria became an expert computer hacker in one morning, they celebrate an episode full of glorious Haleb one-liners. Because, really, what else is there to live for aside from Haleb when it seems like the ever-evolving Twin Theory has seemingly come back into play. Does A.D.'s puzzle lead to Spencer's twin? We only have 7 more episodes to find out...

Exclusive Interview with Ian Harding, aka Ezra Fitz May 02, 2017

Show notes

Sam and Christine are back at it with a very special guest: Ezra Fitz himself, Ian Harding! They have a lot to talk about, like Ian's new book, "Odd Birds;" what makes him so different from the author he plays on PLL; what we can expect from #Endgame; and of course, THE CHICKPEAS.

Season 7, Episode 12: "These Boots Were Made For Stalking" Apr 27, 2017

Show notes

Unlike Jenna's big return to Rosewood in this week's episode, Christine and Martha are still waiting for Sam to sail back in on the SS Haleb. Join them as they — as always — praise the amount of Haleb screen time we've been getting, debate whether or not it's really necessary (with only EIGHT episodes left) to introduce Addison, and critique (at length) the Rosewood P.D.'s work. But, most importantly, enjoy them losing their minds over Allison's latest hot take because you DEFINITELY missed this detail.
