What suggestions for my version of Pretty Little Liars would you like to suggest?
I'm gonna add a lot of dark elements from the books. Caleb, Paige, Ezra will not be in this series.
It'll also be more evil and cruel.

thoughts?
like i said before, the most important thing to me is arcs. right now you're mostly telling what what WONT happen and you've also spoiled hte biggest reveals so tehre isn't much to keep us tantilized other than potential character growth.
as far as what wont happen and who wont be there, its neither exciting or unexciting to me. without the current show as it exists holding you back, those characters are meaningless until you give them meaning.
characters that were once loved in the show could be hated by your potrayal, and characters we hated can be really fun and exciting based on how you portray them.
if i were you id stop worrying about what peoples thoughts on little details were and just tell the story you want to tell. try your best to make it a good mystery, but dont let that come at the expense of good story telling as a whole.
i look forward to reaidng when its out
*when life gives you lemons*
Sara: are you a sour lemon?
I have to agree with bobcat on this. Just go with what you want to write and don't reveal too much. One of the show's biggest issues is trying to appease fans so it lacks any true plot most of the time. Don't concern yourself with whether or not it'll make people happy but just make it interesting.
