Pretty Little Liars is back with new episodes and a new name. We'll show you everything you need to know about how to watch Pretty Little Liars: Summer School, including where to stream the series and when you can expect the next episodes.
Following the success of Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, the first season of the Pretty Little Liars spin-off, it's no surprise that the series is back for a second outing. Bailee Madison, Maia Reficco, Chandler Kinney, Malia Pyles, and Zaria return as the five girls haunted by "A," a mysterious figure toying with their lives. In Summer School, the group is faced with new horrors: required summer classes and a new villain.
The slasher-heavy take on the Pretty Little Liars franchise first premiered in 2022. It's the fourth series to come out of Pretty Little Liars, following the short-lived Ravenswood and Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists spin-offs. It's the first series since the original to get a second-season order. It's also the spin-off that is least related to the original, existing in the same universe but only having a rare character crossover.
Whether you're a fan of the original Pretty Little Liars or an Original Sin convert, we've got you covered. Keep reading to learn how to watch the new season and get caught up on old episodes.
Pretty Little Liars: Summer School lands on Max on Thursdays. The season premiered with two new episodes on May 9. Going forward, the show will drop one new episode weekly until the anticipated finale on June 20. New episodes, along with all of Season 1, are available to stream on Max. Subscriptions start at $9.99 a month for the ad-supported tier. Users can go ad-free for $15.99 a month. Max is also home to all seven seasons of the original Pretty Little Liars.
There's no word yet on when Pretty Little Liars: Summer School will arrive in the UK, but Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin is available to stream on BBC iPlayer. This is a free service that just requires users to sign up for an account.
If you'll be traveling outside the US when new episodes are released but you still want to tune in, you can stay caught up with your subscriptions via a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs change your electronic device's virtual location on a temporary basis so that you can access your usual websites and apps no matter where you are in the world. Plus, they're strong ways to increase your internet privacy. This option will be best for Americans who are simply traveling abroad since the subscription service we've outlined today requires a US form of payment.
If this sounds like something you might be interested in, we recommend trying out ExpressVPN. It's a straightforward VPN with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Additional details can be found in our ExpressVPN review.
Max released a trailer for Pretty Little Liars: Summer School in April. In the video, the girls are seen trying to enjoy their summer as A awaits trial, all while grappling with a new threat and summer school. Annabeth Gish returns as Dr. Sullivan from the original Pretty Little Liars series. You can see what the girls have been up to since we last saw them in the trailer below:
