^^^ Fans may not write the tv shows but they sure as hell influence the writers decisions. You'd be naive if you didn't know that..

TV shows rely on ratings to survive - Fans=Viewers=Ratings. If the majority of fans hate a particular aspect of a show there is a high chance that they will avoid watching show. Low Ratings or low popularity means trouble for any tv show. Writers of a tv show will avoid writing something that will displease the majority of fans. A good tv show is usually and equal balance between what the writers want AND what the fans want.

The writers of  Dawson's Creek originally intended for Joey to end up with Dawson but the fans of the shows hated that idea and loved Pacey and Joey.

Series Finale- Joey and Pacey get together. (And this was before the emergence of social media) PLL are going to be much more aware of their fans than a show from the 90's so the writers are even more aware of whats hated and whats not.
