Worst acting moments

1. Every scene with Mike, Shana, Shower, or Sydney as the focus.
2. Alison and Mona's showdown in the church. They were both awful.
3. Caleb crying in the scene you mentioned.
4. Every Emily and Toby scene.
5. Most of the season 4 Halloween episode especially with Miranda and Caleb.
6. Toby saying you don't want to know Noel and give me five minutes alone with him in season 6.
7. Toby being drugged out in the fight with A. It almost didn't make the list because it's so deliciously awful that I love it. This scene is like giving some faux edgy blogger a soda and telling them that's it's beer so they act over the top drunk when they're very sober. Then sticking them in a bowling alley just to see what happens.

-Whenever Toby tries to act tough I cringe. "You don't want to know, Noel!"

-Mike Montgomery being emotional. His mental illness storyline was good but the acting in it was crap.

-Caleb ugly crying.

-Aria ugly crying.

-Ella Montgomery when she's yelling. She always makes an expression like she's bothered herself with how loud it is.

-Emily whenever she is surprised and her open mouth becomes larger than the rest of her face. There are ways to act surprised without throwing your mouth open!

-Every scene with Sara Harvey or Shana Fringe. Those two were badly written and s bland as a piece of white untoasted bread.

-Sara and Emily trying to be couple-y. It was forced and usually Shay is able to adapt in a couple scene if she is acting against someone that is stronger than she is (Bianca Lawson, Lindsey Shaw, to name a few) but in this case they're both bad and unconvincing so it somehow just pushes the awfulness up to the next level.

It was also the writing and directing that didn't help at all, but in Season 1:

When Toby and Emily go to the dance together and he takes her into a classroom (lab?). He slowly shuts the door and dramatically says something like,

"We all have secrets, Emily..."

The point was to make him look suspicious/sketchy, I guess.

"That's it, Noel! We're done!"

Also the chickpeas.

Hanna crying when Caleb was shot and had to be taken to the ambulance. Ashley is usually great with crying scenes. I don't know what happened there.
