I feel like the minority who really liked the whole continuation and completion of Caleb's time in Ravenswood and how it affected him because, obviously, I really loved and enjoyed Ravenswood. It would have been sloppy had they not done continuity with her character arc because that shit messed him up real bad. He needed some closure for that in order to move forward, and I liked that it complemented with what Hanna was going through as well. Not in a healthy way for the both of them at the time, of course, but they got through it together. The ending with that with the Ouija board was just for that closure, and I didn't mind it and I thought, overall, it was sweet. But again, I'm in that minority.

I'm so sick and tired of Aria/Ezra. Like, I wouldn't mind Ezra if they had stuck with the predatory storyline, which thematically fits the show and I would have loved seeing not just that version of Ezra but also a relationship that has been romanticized by both the characters and the audience be subverted and shredded. But no, they just backpedaled so hard and I cannot forgive them for that. It was such a good direction to take the story and I felt so cheated out of that potential, dammit. I was super disappointed. And I hate that Aria and him got back together so soon after the fact, proving that show is only doing this to appease the shippers. It worked for Toby and Spencer (just barely because they lied about that initially too) but it's sloppy writing to repeat the same storyline, ffs. Just, bleugh to everything about them.
