I got a little bit behind on my Perfectionists watching as honestly, the first two episodes didn’t quite entice me to continue.  But a friend of mine convinced me that it was continuously getting better, so I ended up watching episode 3 and 4 in one night. I still don’t have a grasp on what they’re trying to accomplish here. IS there another “A”? Or is it just internal guilt that’s causing so much chaos with the mom looking around and hiring the detective? I just feel like the show hasn’t quite figured out its groove yet.

Still curious to hear my thoughts? Read on!

• So Alison didn’t take Emily’s last name?
• Alison should be a better judge at catching liars after all the time she spent
• I know she’s got a different name, but Kelly Rutherford will always be referred to as Lille Van der Woodsen in these posts.
• Note to self: I want and need a new messenger bag
  • Side note: I bought this bag
• I don’t know if that lipstick is working for Caitlin
• Okay Mona’s living space in a less manic phase is incredibly cute
• “Ali buddies” is a great group name
• Here’s the thing. I liked Detective Tanner in PLL, even if the girls didn’t. She was smart and not vindictive. The Detective Tanner stand in here I’m not as big of a fan of. (I do hope I stop comparing the two, but whatever)

• Alison’s ring – that’s definitely the engagement ring right?
  • Seriously, can we get an explanation for where Emily is
• I should have learned the cello.
• What is this Dylan’s putting on his back?
• Who is this random blonde girl? I like her earrings but like who is she?
• MORE LADY GAGA CELLO MUSIC YES
• SELF HIGH FIVES
• Oh her name is Zoe okay! But who is she? Did we meet her at some point?
• Lilly Van der Woodsen is very upbeat for someone who has lost both kids in a year?
  • Also, why haven’t we seen her daughter since episode 1?
  • Oh hey she had an older daughter and younger son LIKE LILLY VAN DER WOODSEN
• What is Nolan’s gift to Ava?
• Man I super love Ali’s glasses
• I do love this Mona but this is a very different Mona than I’m used to
• Is this the same cabin his sister was hiding in?
• OH ARE WE FINALLY — no we are not putting together the sister.
• These kids don’t trust Ali which, I guess I get, but it’s very weird. Like shouldn’t they know the rumors and stories of Alison DiLaurentis?
• WHAT IS IN THE TRUNK
• Nolan’s stash?
• WHAT’S IN THE BOOOOOX
• YES, DYLAN. PUT YOUR FINGERPRINTS ALL OVER THE BOX.
• Ava just fucking PICKED UP THAT RAT AND THREW IT HOLY SHIT
• I am trying to decide how I would feel if someone composed a song for me. Definitely flattered, probably would cry, but also, something weird.
• Man these episodes really pile on the Vitamin String Quartet music
  • which….isn’t necessarily bad, just super odd.
  • I think I like it?
  • But am also kind of sick of it
• Alison got that Taylor might be alive because of a flower?
• So Mason is the Noel Kahn
