I don't really know why Emison fans should be any less excited - if anything they should be happy because it is pretty much confirmed that Emily and Paige end their relationship in 5x14. You can dislike Paily, but it is one of the show's main relationships and it is ending - it's only natural that the writers talk about it. I'm not sure how the writers are "paily writers" given that they are writing Paige off the show.

Also, (and I'm saying this as an Emison fan) I want the Paily breakup to be done well. Just having Paige leave without any kind of emotion would just be poor writing and basically would make the whole relationship/feelings seem fake (which regardless of our personal feelings about it, Emily and Paige clearly do have feelings for each other, even if they aren't as strong as Emily's feelings toward Ali). I'm not a Paily fan, nor do I think they are endgame. But the breakup needs to be done right. Not just ignored to please one set of people who can't deal with Paige for one more episode.

To be fair, we have gotten way more Alison this season than any other season(as of now, she is confirmed for a similar numbber of episodes and is possibly appearing in more than what is listed; and on average she has gotten way more screentime per episode in 5A than any other season). When she is cleared (and it's obvious that she is a red herring and is innocent) she will likely have more or less equal screen time as the other girls. The writers have confirmed there is a lot more of her in seasons 6 and 7. I guess I just don't see what the fuss is about. If Ali came back and everything was perfect that would be pretty boring. Also, a big part of what makes her character great is that you can never quite figure her out - she always did kind of shady things and you aren't sure why. This is why I love her character. If she was squeaky clean and had no suspicions on her it would be dull.
