The first season’s last three episodes, Chapter Ten: Final Girls, Episode 8, Chapter Eight: Bad Blood, and Episode 9, Chapter Nine: Dead and Buried, were released on August 18, 2022, on the same day.

On the other hand, the reviews of the series have overall been great, which makes it an easy decision for the network to continue the series for another season. It was reported that “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin” was met with a very positive response to critical acclaim from critics.
