Is Pretty Little Liars [1] about to end?! Creator I. Marlene King has given a rather eyebrow-raising interview to Variety, in which she is quoted as saying she would be satisfied if the show's story ended [2] with season seven.

"'I think that this story when we're back will end next year at the at end of season seven,' King told Variety this week when asked if the time jump gives the series more legs to continue. Then when asked, 'So you definitely want it to end at the end of season seven, and don't want it to go beyond that?' King replied: 'Correct.'"

It sounds like King might be referring to the storyline that Pretty Little Liars is gearing up to tell in its sixth season, and indeed she confirmed it in a tweet:

What I said was "This Uber A story that starts on January 12 will end when season 7 ends." I did not say PLL will end. Just sayin 4 real.

Thank goodness! We're not ready to say goodbye to the show, especially now that we have a good look at Hanna's dreamy future fiancé [4].
