Pretty Little Liars was always meant to be a trashy show, with incredibly controversial story elements. It is part of the reason, ABC rebranded that sub-channel to FreeForm. I am certain my aunt would have been furious, had she known her daughter (who was 13 at the time) was watching it. Though, in my cousin's defence, she was mature enough to know just how problematic that show was.

When it came to ''OUaT.... ''this cousin could never understand, why Belle would always return to Rumplestiltstkin. She hated when Zelena was given custody of her daughter, and that she named the baby after Robin Hood. She actually quit watching, because she knew the reboot would only get worse. I know that she didn’t write this episode, but this isn’t the first time Jane Espenson’s worked on a show where the characters just over look sexual assault. I remember on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike attempted to rape Buffy. However, the characters eventually started to overlook it, with Buffy even making that “oh he didn’t even have a soul at the time” excuse for him. Now, in the comic continuation they are a couple.
