'Am I the only one who's getting sick of this trend of revealing a potential "A" in each summer finale and then making him a cop-out, and only for us finding out nothing in each spring finale? This has been going on for the past two seasons now: Toby in the season 3 summer finale and Ezra in the season 4 summer finale, yet they always end up being cop outs. And in the actual spring finales of said seasons, we never even figure out anything really major (hello, A Dangerous Game?). '

'I personally like to find out big shockers with the characters, to see their reaction along with ours, not having to wait four months for them to catch up with us, and only for it to end up being a cop-out later. If the writers stopped doing this the show in my view can definently live up to its full potential.  This system of using cop-outs really makes the A mystery less suspenseful. In season '' 2, when the writers didn't make cop-outs for A's identity, we had a long list of suspects for who can be A (Mona, Jenna, Melissa, Alison, Maya, Ezra, and the list goes on). Now, the only people left that can be A yet still be shocking are the girls themselves or their parents, but this would kind of seem stupid. '''
