I watched the pilot and it was so cringe, they simple don't talk or act like normal people, lucy hale's character is the most annoying one, all her lines are spoken like she is happy on pills, besides that, every time her friends were in trouble she was like "you need a new outfit" and guess what? it didn't help. when josie was rejected by the record company it was sooo unreal, i mean, they didn't even knew her and acted so disrespectful in order to make her cry when they could simply have rejected her and walked out. It's like the producers wanted it to be so cringe, the actors really can talk and act like normal people but it seems like cw's writers asked them to act and talk like happy-sad-goodlooking-bombshells
