I think the reason people are getting annoyed is because the produces are consistently lying to the fans and, in doing so, lose their trust. It's not about keeping the suspense, it's about giving enough information so that the fans can come up with their own theories that may or may not be true. What Marlene and Oliver are doing is giving the fans false information, recycling storylines and just being deceptive. That's why people are getting annoyed, because even after four/five years, we are still in square one: Ali's alive (I mean they practically outright blurted that to us with the fact that it was A (for Ali)) and we - the fans - are no closer to figuring out who A is than we were four years ago.

The show needs to reward its fans because they're gonna lose them, little by little, they're gonna lose them. You can already see it happening, people can't trust a word the producer's say.

Take a show like HIMYM for example, they did a ballsy thing by showing us who the mother is; and they did an even ballsier thing by making her a part of their final season. They had a plan, an end goal, but what PLL prod. are doing is not setting an end in sight. Not saying 'Okay, five seasons and that's it.' It would be A-Mazing ;) if we could actually see who A is, and then see the fifth season in a split A/PLLs PoV. It would be a nice pay off and a reward for the fans, and then in the finale we see the why or the how, and in the finale we see the PLLs finding out.

But I feel like every time we get even remotely close to finding out who A is, the PLL prod. just say 'LOL JK they're a faker'. It's almost mockery.

Rant over.
