The 'Pretty Little Liars' Say an Emotional Goodbye on Final Day of Filming
"Pretty Little Liars" wrapped production on its seventh and final season this week, and the cast and crew took to social media to reminisce about the series and reflect on the end of an era, sharing some emotional photos and words with fans.
The tributes came pouring in from stars Ashley Benson, Lucy Hale, Shay Mitchell, and Troian Bellisario, as well as series creator and showrunner I. Marlene King, with each woman saying goodbye to the series in her own way. Throwback photos, snaps from the wrap party, and parting words from empty dressing rooms all made appearances on Twitter and Instagram, each more emotional than the last.

Can't... stop... crying. I know I need to celebrate this amazing show and not mourn it- but that just seems too hard right now... ????

"Seven years later the day has come to say goodbye," Benson wrote on Twitter.
"I'm just so full of gratitude that this was my life for so long," Mitchell shared on Instagram, alongside a group photo of the cast.
"Bittersweet feelings today, but so proud of what we've done," Hale added in another Instagram post.
The final 10 episodes of season seven of "Pretty Little Liars" air on Freeform beginning sometime in April 2017. The two-hour series finale will be followed by a one-hour tell-all special.
