It's official, liars! Pretty Little Liars is coming to an end, according to an interview network exec Karey Burke did recently with Variety. "I came in knowing that this was the plan, and I’ve been here a little under two years. It’s long been the feeling with the creative forces." Burke also cleared up those rumors about a possible PLL movie. "Oh no, this is really the end. The community surrounding the show is very protective over it, as they should be because it’s a show that the narrative is built on mystery and secrets, so I think that everybody was being very protective of the destiny of the show.

The show is about two families coming together after finding out that two teen girls were switched at birth. The aspect that made this show special is that one of the switched girls is deaf. A primetime show with the inclusion of the deaf community hasn't really been done before, but the producers and writers did such an amazing job. The premiere date for the fifth and final season has not been given. My Two Cents: I have been a dedicated watcher of 'Switched at Birth' since the beginning.
