"If At First You Don't Succeed, Lie..."
— 01/31/11

We can’t wait any longer for the return of “Pretty Little Liars.” Basically, June 5 can’t come soon enough. Based on several new teases from the season three premiere (watch them at Aceshowbiz.com), it seems that while one A (Mona) is in the a psychiatric center, there are plenty more A-Team members around to stir up trouble for the liars as they try to move on from Alison’s mysterious death.

The kickoff episode, “It Happened ‘That Night,’” finds the girls nearing the two-year anniversary of their friend’s murder. And things are just as scary as ever. One clip from the premiere shows Aria as she attempts to hit up the school ladies’ room. She’s followed in by a mysterious figure, who may or may not end up causing her harm based on her blood-curdling screams.

The next teaser finds Spencer and Hanna shopping, being gawked at by older Rosewood residents who always associate them with Alison’s death, and Spencer sharing that someone may have broken into her house. They also briefly mention Maya’s death and the fact that Hanna is still seeking the help of a therapist.

The ladies catch up at a sleepover in a third clip, dishing on what they did over their summer breaks. But, just when it seems like they could for once have fun without being harassed by A, the anonymous creepster has this message, “Show me your boobs.” (That’s the worst A text in the history of the show, by the way.) Also, since Maya’s death, it seems that Emily has acquired a bit of a drinking problem.

The final tease brings us back to Mona as she receives a visit from one-time pal Hanna. What will the twosome chat about once the nurse leaves the room? Well, we’ll have to wait a couple more weeks to find out.

Check out the new trailer for season three of the hit ABC drama, Pretty Little Liars!

In the clip, Aria (Lucy Hale), Emily (Shay Mitchell), Hanna (Ashley Benson), and Spencer (Troian Bellisario) have reunited after spending the summer apart doing their own thing. With post-traumatic stress from finding out Mona (Janel Parrish) was “A” and Maya’s (Bianca Lawson) death, the four Liars are anything but fine when Emily starts receiving mysterious text messages again.

Season three premieres Tuesday, June 5th @ 8PM ET/PT, after an all day marathon, on ABC Family.

ARE YOU EXCITED for the return of Pretty Little Liars?

Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson and Rachel Korine flirt with the camera in this new shot from the May 2012 issue of Interview mag.

Spring Breakers follows the four college students who land in jail after robbing a restaurant to fund their spring break trip. After being bailed bailed out by Alien (James Franco), a drug-dealer and gunrunner, they’re seduced into his world.

“I was getting kind of repetitive in terms of the roles I was picking, and I really wanted to do something that was completely different,” Selena, 19, shared. “It was a mark thing for me—like, ‘This is what I want to be doing.’ I want to be taking myself seriously as an actress, and this was definitely a stretch. I mean, I’d never smoked a cigarette before in my entire life. It was really funny—they had to show me how to do it.”

Ashley, 22, added, “[Director] Harmony [Korine] wanted to break us all out of the good-girl mold. For Selena, Vanessa, and me, our audience is all in their teens or younger, so they’re not even going to be able to see this when it comes out—it’s not appropriate.”

Wait a second—are you trying to tell us we haven’t shaken off A for good? Well, if the just-released trailer for the third season of “Pretty Little Liars” divulges anything, it’s just that.

Despite the revelation that Mona was the creepster behind all those menacing messages, the texts are back and they are as ominous as ever. And it goes without saying that the four liars aren’t getting any breaks. In fact, A has this message for the ladies: “Game on!” (To be fair, Mona did warn them that there is an A team, so we sort of figured we hadn’t seen the last of her/him/them/whatever.)

But game on indeed! With Mona in an institution, Garrett in jail and the ladies cavorting around town like everything will go back to normal, the girls quickly realize they won’t. “I bet you remember me,” A”says in a text, and from there things begin to crumble. Aria ends up locked in a bathroom stall screaming for her life and the girls are once again digging for clues out in the woods of Rosewood.

Just when fans thought they had answers, a whole new slew of questions are raised. Garrett drops an especially juicy tidbit telling Spencer, “There’s a lot you don’t know.”

We’re sure when season three kicks off on June 5 there will be a lot we find out, but there will be even more we’ll be wondering about. And we wouldn’t want it any other way.

Are you excited for the return of “Pretty Little Liars”? What are your theories about A? Sound off in the comments and on Twitter!

There is less than a month until the season three premiere of Pretty Little Liars!

I’m going to miss playing Queen Bee Mona,” Janel Parrish, who plays the A-minion, told Huffington Post. “I hope there are flashbacks in which I can do all of the above [Nerdy Mona and Crazy Mona], especially the Dorky Mona scenes. I love them so much.”

Janel adds, “They’re so much fun and insightful. It just shows everyone’s back story and why they are the way that they are and everything. So I’m hoping for more flashbacks. I think they’re important to the show. But I am looking forward to playing Crazy Mona. It’s a new type of part for me. So it was a challenge and it was very, very fun.”

Pictured below: Troian Bellisario (Spencer Hastings), Ashley Benson (Hanna Marin), Shay Mitchell (Emily Fields) Lucy Hale (Aria Montgomery), Janel Parrish (Mona Vanderwall), Sasha Pieterse (Alison DiLaurentis), Keegan Allen (Toby Cavanaugh), Julian Morris (Dr. Wren Kingston), Yani Gellman (Officer Garrett Reynolds), Ian Harding (Ezra Fitz), Drew Van Acker (Jason DiLaurentis), Brendan Robinson (Lucas Gottesman), Tyler Blackburn (Caleb Rivers) and Brant Daugherty (Noel Khan).

What exactly separates the good girls from the wild ones? Considering all their ‘A’ drama, steamy relationships, late night detective work and compulsive lying some viewers might actually describe Pretty Little Liars‘ main quartet — comprised of Aria, Spencer, Emily and Hanna — as “wild.” However, compared to the characters of Spring Breakers (played by Ashley Benson, Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens and Rachel Korine), the Rosewood ladies appear 100% angelic and 100% tame. Don’t believe us? Check out the wicked little photos below — from Interview magazine’s feature story on the much-buzzed about dark comedy  — to see true “girls gone wild” breaking all the rules!

The movie, set to be released in 2013, follows four college students who land in jail after robbing a restaurant to fund their spring break trip. They are then bailed out by a drug-dealer slash gunrunner named Alien (played by James Franco) and they are introduced into an unsavory world of drugs, sex and violence. And, unlike the Liars who are well-intentioned, the Spring Breakers girls are hardcore rebels: they frolic about in neon bikinis, ride mopeds, chain smoke, rob small diners, tote guns and get super drunk in convenience store parking lots. That’s not to say though that the actual stars of the movie are all sorts of unhinged in real life — they are after all just acting!

In the Interview article, Selena and Ashley reveal that their Spring Breakers roles proved to be way different than anything they’ve ever experienced before! For Selena, smoking a cigarette was a stretch and she had to be shown how to for various scenes. And what about Ashley? “Harmony wanted to break us all out of the good-girl mold,” she shares. “For Selena, Vanessa, and me, our audience is all in their teens or younger, so they’re not even going to be able to see this when it comes out—it’s not appropriate.”

Tyler Blackburn and Ashley Benson pass notes in the hallway in this new still from the season premiere of Pretty Little Liars.

In the upcoming episode “It Happened That Night,” A summer has passed since Aria (Lucy Hale), Emily (Shay Mitchell), Hanna (Benson) and Spencer (Troian Bellisario) found out about Mona (Janel Parrish) being “A” and Maya’s (Bianca Lawson) death. With the terror seemingly over and an alleged murderer now behind bars, the town of Rosewood is slowly healing from old and new wounds and trying to get back to normalcy.

Each of the four girls spent their summer in different ways – Aria taking a photography class, Spencer taking college courses at Hollis, Hanna taking cooking classes with Caleb (Blackburn) and Emily building houses in Haiti.

But what looks normal for each girl is not necessarily so, as all four are hardly over what happened. With post-traumatic stress, anger and the acquisition of more secrets the four Liars are anything but fine. Now all back together and coming upon the second anniversary of Alison’s (Sasha Pieterse) disappearance, the girls find themselves back on the defensive when a shocking event rocks Rosewood.
