Creativity Quote by Sabrina Carpenter

"Honestly I'm not a huge TV person. The only show that I've seen every episode of is 'Pretty Little Liars.' It's my favorite show. I wish I could get into other shows, but I just don't have time!"

About this Quote

There’s a carefully casual humility baked into this confession: “I’m not a huge TV person” sets up a familiar pop-star posture of constant motion, the life too booked to binge. Then she undercuts that productivity halo with a single, very specific obsession: Pretty Little Liars, a melodramatic, twist-happy teen mystery that thrives on compulsion. The contrast is the point. She’s not selling herself as a cultured prestige-watcher; she’s admitting to the kind of show you inhale on a tour bus at 2 a.m., half comfort, half chaos.

The intent reads like image management without sounding managed. By naming one show, she avoids the generic “I love Netflix” answer and signals relatability through taste that’s mainstream but not try-hard. PLL also codes a certain era: mid-2010s appointment TV for young women, the social-media sleuthing years when fandom was participatory and weekly cliffhangers were communal. Saying she’s seen “every episode” isn’t just about consumption; it’s about membership.

“I wish I could get into other shows” adds a small note of aspiration, like she’s aware of the cultural capital of being conversant in the current canon. “But I just don’t have time!” restores the brand: busy, working, slightly breathless. Subtext: I’m normal enough to have a comfort show, successful enough to be too booked to keep up, and self-aware enough to admit the gap. It’s celebrity relatability calibrated to feel unpolished while staying flattering.
