Janel Parrish Wants 'PLL' Fans To Embrace 'The Perfectionists' Spinoff

The Perfectionists is one of the new shows this year that we’re 52045230% excited for and Janel Parrish is getting us even more stoked.

Talking with ET about the series, which is set to premiere later this spring, the 31-year-old actress wants true Pretty Little Liars fans to embrace the new show.

“You know, you step back into Mona’s shoes and that felt natural,” she shared. “But to kind of, like, look around and be like, oh, we’re in a new town — quite literally, filming in Portland — with some new faces, and you feel blessed that you’re able to still be here and expand your family, but you definitely miss the originals. Absolutely.”

Janel adds that she wants “[fans] to know that we are respecting the Pretty Little Liars world still.

“It’s still very much PLL. We’re giving you Ali and Mona, we’re staying true to our characters — to the vibe of the show — but there will be some fun, new faces and new mysteries and I hope that they kind of embrace the newness of it.”
