Some could even say that “Pretty Little Liars” walked so that “Riverdale” could run right off those murder train rails. Much like “Riverdale,” it was also campy and, for lack of a better term, a wild ride, with characters getting criminal charges for simply holding a shovel, going into blind fugue states, and ending up on murder trains with Adam Lambert. The thing about “Pretty Little Liars,” however, is that it was already dark, moody and mysterious, and sexy in its original iteration - or at least as much as it could be on ABC Family. ‘Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin’ Trailer Reveals a New Generation Haunted by The Past (Video) (“New,” because the references in “Original Sin” are more millennial than even the references on the original series were.) It’s difficult to imagine that audiences have even really even been given a chance to miss the original show for long enough before “Riverdale” creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Lindsay Calhoon Bring decided to bring it back in this “new” form. HBO Max’s “Gossip Girl” is a revival, continuing the legacy established by the original series that said farewell less than a decade ago, and now, in the case of “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin” (also a “Max Original,” of which five episodes were provided for this review), we’re talking about a series based on something that premiered 12 years ago… and only just ended five years ago.

On Reddit, u/Klutzystrike explained the dislike, saying, "When he says to Topanga, without a breath, 'you came on to me,' I always want to jump into the screen and punch him so bad. Things don't get better with this guy. When Topanga asks him to lay off Cory, he shows that he's willing to lie to save his skin. Eventually, the dean (Bonnie Bartlett) holds a hearing to determine Cory's future at Pennbrook University.
Later, Cory's confrontation with Stuart turns physical, leading the teacher to threaten Cory's academic standing.
Fortunately, Cory enters the room before anything else happens. Though she expresses her discomfort, he won't leave. Eric's warning surprisingly proves accurate when Stuart then hits on Topanga (Danielle Fishel) in her dorm room. Only Eric (Will Friedle) seems to think differently: "He's bad news, you trust me," he tells Jack (Matthew Lawrence). At first, everyone likes the teacher's style.
