Comparing Gossip Girl And Pretty Little Liars

This was a let down, plain and simple. When Toby and Ezra were initially revealed as A, even though they were fakeouts, I was still surprised. I remember feeling hyped up for over an hour after those episodes aired. Yes the aftermath of the reveals were huge let downs, but at least they initially were chilling to me.

We are supposed to believe Bethany pushed Toby's mother off the building when they were kids, but in season 4 we are show a flashback where Marion is alive when Toby's a teenager? How does that compute? Same with Cece being in Rosewood High's yearbook, but apparently she didn't even go there. How did Cece and Sara know how to use all the technical equipment that was necessary to be A? How did Spencer even disable the bomb at the end so
