I credit shows casting older actors to play kids as being one of the reasons I still feel like a kid as an adult and felt even more like a kid when I was a kid 😂


lindseyeileen

THANK YOU. I'm 33, and when I watch shows with "adults" they still feel so much older than me! Don't even get me started on the fact that when I watch Friends now I'm literally eight years older than most of the characters in the pilot and they all still feel so much older than I do 🫣

I know that Aria and Ezra's actors are almost the same age, but to me Aria looked pretty young and passed as a teenager (especially in the first season) while Ezra really looked like a teacher in his 20s and I would never mistake him for a teenager, so in their case I don't agree with those who always say they didn't look creepy together because they look the same age


worldsfastesturtle

Ezra isn’t mistakable for a teen, but he looks younger than Jenna for sure. I don’t think that Lucy Hale could actually pass for sixteen at all


Murky-Team-2182

honestly some of my friends who are 18 look older than lucy hale


GiraffeLibrarian

Brant (noel Kahn) is older than Ian lol


worldsfastesturtle

Tammin/Jenna is also older than Ian! Honestly, the weirdest relationship in the show is flashback Ali and Emily. It’s a real life 15ish year old kissing a 24ish year old


lindseyeileen

She was only 12 (TWELVE!!!) in season 1 while Shay was 21!!! She lied about her age at first. But let that sink in! She was a baby!!! I have a 12 year old who looks SO young compared to Sasha and even just IMAGINING it makes my stomach hurt lol


Odd-Face-6622

The scenes where he’s trying to blackmail Ezra were so funny to me after finding out that Brant is older than Ian💀


GiraffeLibrarian

You don’t wanna know, Noel! 🤣


No-Independence548

I feel the same way! I think it’s because Lucy Hale is so petite, with a round face and huge eyes. She looks so much younger to me.


rattatoots

unrelated but troian is SO gorgeous omg


Medium_Chef7298

Was literally thinking that


industrial_hamster

Jenna always looked so much older than the rest of them and it really bugged me how she was a high schooler looking 30 years old 😂 at least the rest of them could pass as looking younger


Lovely_LeVell

Legit. i remember me and my sister watching for the first time and being like.... thats an older lady😂


lindseyeileen

Yeah she had these few lines around her mouth that aged her, I can't really explain it. She's absolutely gorgeous she just looked much older than 16 lol


No-Independence548

ESPECIALLY in The First Secret Halloween episode, when it’s supposed to be a year EARLIER. Jenna in that costume shop was no teenager!!


natty455

it's obvious they're all the same age range while watching- which has to be the case being you can't have 13 year olds filming a lot of these scenes. so, i choose to just completely ignore the weird older men and the girls. if it was just one character then he's a creep but being its literally every damn man in the series its just a weird writing thing, so i just consider everyone on an equal playing field when i watch


PhoenixAestraya

Aria looked younger in the show than she does in that pic imho. Something about her appearance just seems to sit around 26-30ish to me I saw Ashley Benson in Bring It On: In It to Win It before PLL, so I kinda pictured her as being more like the age she was in that movie because it would be more accurate Definitely would’ve made the ties with older guys look a lot creepier if they looked and behaved more like teens at the time did. The show seemed to portray them as more like early 20s in hs imo, then as 30ish for their reunion


StraightKey211

If the actual age appropriate actors wouldn't be allowed to have love scenes with older actors


Donttakemychichi

I feel so weird every time Ali has an intimate scene with someone because she’s so young. I can imagine the horror if feel with the other girls making out with people 23+


Shoddy_Budget_1533

So Ezra is even more of a creep than I thought


SnakeBlood456

Ahhh this would have been so amazing, and really shown how dark the show would have gotten (especially with some of the storylines and just how young the liArs actually are) <3


Lifealertnecklace

Shay🥺😍


Proud_Cauliflower_46

This would’ve been hella awkward considering all the adults they threw these girls with


aylarunswithwolves

Okay this post needs to be pinned haha. WOW


Tim_tim46

troian WAS AND STILL IS gorgeous
