Weāre back for more commentary episodes, this time with a guest all the way from Germany! Janina joins us to cover the first half of the infamous Dollhouse arc, where Pretty Little Liars really ascended to new levels of insanity.

In a Headcanon crossover episode, the Bros are joined by Kate to talk about the grandmother of all modern teen movies: Amy Heckerlingās Clueless. The Girl from the Aerosmith video shows limitless charm as Cher, the ditzy queen of Bronson Alcott High, and the stellar supporting cast of future stars makes this teen retelling of āEmmaā a classic.
-
Thanksgiving is over, and itās time to get in the holiday cheer with a commentary track for the PLL Christmas Episode. Elizabeth Kyle joins us again to talk Winter Ball fashion, inappropriate student-teacher Santa fetish group sex, and whatever happened to Aliās legs! And for dessert, we share our thoughts on Midnights by Taylor Swift.
-
Hey everyone, weāre back! For this special episode of the pod, we are joined by Rose Coffey, the winner of our Trouble book contest. Rose joins us to talk Do Revenge, the Mean Girls-meets-Strangers on a Train teen comedy on Netflix starring Maya Hawke, Camila Mendes, and (the best part of PLL: Original Sin) Maia Reficco. At the end of the episode, we have some very spoilery discussion of Trouble Takes a Holiday, so make sure youāve visited mynameistrouble.com and caught up on all three books before you listen!

A and Aās handler are exposed, along with the secret rapist, and weāre finally done with this stupid show. The āguiltyā are āpunishedā by the ākillerā after the big ātwistā reveal cooked up by these āwriters.ā Itās all so dumb. Anyway, our new book is out!
-
Weāre almost done. Two to go for this trash show. The writers pretended the plot was over at the end of the last episode, so weāre treated to a lame recap where they try to lampshade their poor storytelling. A bunch of stuff happens off screen, and weāre told, not shown, a bunch of random stuff to move the plot along. The evil Sheriff is revealed to be more evil, and the secret rapist becomes rather obvious. People got paid to write thisā¦
-
The Sinners concoct a dumb, pointless plan to gather up a bunch of bloody cotton balls from the school Blood Drive, so they can test them en masse to see if one of the students is the father of Imogenās rape baby. Oh, and Crazy Joe comes back, acts super threatening, seems to clearly be A and then k-words himself, so of course heās not A. Help.
-
Imogen encourages Tabby to go to the cops about her assault, but isnāt ready to go yet herself. Instead, sheās doing the old, āhigh school project to take care of a fake baby with a romantic interestā plot line, which is extra gross becauseā¦ you know. Mouse has more drama with her creepy LARPing dude Steve, and tricks her mom into revealing one of the more boring deep dark secrets imaginable. Faran is suddenly dealing with chronic pain and tells her mom off and is even more empowered and makes out with her dancer boyfriend. Whatever. Noa gets a physical trainer that might be encouraging her to juice. Tabby cooks up a new scheme to catch her rapist, rather than talking with a counselor about it.
-
Imogen and Tabby bond over their shared trauma and take a trip to fake-ass Rosewood to talk to fake-ass Eddie Lamb at the fake-ass Radley Hotel. Noa, Faran, and Mouse are stuck in some theater kid after school special nonsense. But donāt worry, folks, everything is super empowering and totally on fleek. Straight bussinā fr fr no cap.
-
The Sinners throw a High School Ragerā¢ to raise money to save the local rec centerāer, pay Imogenās mortgage. Everyone talks to each other like theyāre in a flame war on Tumblr. Itās Halloween. Thereās lots of costumes, but no Adam Lambert or even Giant Drag making an appearance. I hate this show. Help!
-
This week on the pod, Imogenās been thinking about her mom, and sheās got some unkind words for the rotting bitch. Mouse has like five lines. Faran might be the worst. Noa gets chased around and scared into selling her useless mom out. And Tabby has a super-fun sexual assault mystery plot line! Weād rather be watching the show where Caleb and Toby are driving through town on the way to infiltrate some Actual Bad Guys.
-
Karen is dead! Or was it secretly Kelly? Who cares? Itās not like weād seen enough of them for it to mean anything. The āLiarsā are lying about the one thing it would make sense to tell the truth about, and telling the truth about everything else. The writers donāt seem interested in developing characters or creating tension, and the direction is somehow even worse. WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THE CAMERA???
-
Something finally happens on the show this week, despite the whole, āWeāre gonna kill Karen Beasley!ā thing being a complete lie. Imogen has feeling about being Sprit Queen like her mom when she also bullied a girl like her mom (but she doesnāt know that yet). Mouse is very upset about the killing of some dirty rodent. Faran doesnāt have much to do. Tabby makes way too many horror movie references. And Noa blackmails the Sheriff so she can go to the dance. Oh, and āKarenā is ākilledā by āA.ā

After a long slumber, the Bros have awoken and attended the red carpet premiere of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, a show featuring no pretty little liars, no originality, and not enough sin. We only watched this once, and this is all from memory, so if we get something wrong, blame Warner Bros for not inviting us to the after party.
Also, weāre doing a giveaway. Listen for details and a chance to win Pretty Little Liars: The Complete series, on Digital.
