A few people think that Ali is going to die soon. I disagree

1. In the christmas episode they were (supposedly) "foreshadowing Alison's Death". As we know they were relating that episode to the book/movie A Christmas Carol. In the movie Scrooge gets to see his past, present, and future, as does Ali. He is told that if he does not change his ways while viewing his future, that he will die and know one will remember him/they will hate him. In the end Scrooge wakes up from his dreams and changes his ways, becoming a better person. He DOES NOT end up dying in the end. Those flashbacks/future dreams show what will happen if he does not change his ways. Alison as we know(from interviews and articles) will be redeamed in 5b. So she does change her ways like scrooge, ending up befriending back the liars. It was all just a Christmas Carol refrence

2. The writers know what Alison dying will do to popularity of the show. It may seem like people don't like her being back because season 5 has had the lowest viewers. I think it is because people are getting tired of the mystery and waiting for A, not to mention the messed up storylines and rosewood timeline. Some of my friends told me during 4b that if they dont reveal who A is in the season 4 finale that they would stop watching and catch up once they find out A has been revealed. And all of my other friends wait until it comes on Netflix to watch it now. Only one of my friends watches it Live. Episode 5.11 had the lowest ratings during all of season 5. Alison never made an appearance in this episode.

3. What would be the point of bringing Ali back just to kill her a season later?
