The members of the Pretty Little Liars cast are no strangers to the social media game. Taking to Instagram and Snapchat, the girls and their costars let us glance into their backstage lives and let me tell you—they are as hilarious as they seem. In honor of their filming days coming to a close yesterday, here’s a look at some of the amazing backstage moments the PLL cast has given us.

Keegan Allen and his hilarious Snapchat stories always paid tribute to his beloved character in the best possible ways.

 

Keegan also captured some of the best photos of his castmates between takes.

Ashley Benson and Shay Mitchell, queens of social media, have become the onset dynamic duo we all know and love as ButtahBenzo. A day without each other in their Snapchat stories is a sad day for us all.

 

Troian Bellisario let us all in on her gig as director. We got to watch as our young—yet super smart and talented—caterpillar spread her wings and flew away. Luckily, we’ll get to watch the results when the final season airs next year!

 

Though Lucy Hale somehow managed to stay away from Snapchat and is easily the most private of the Liars, someone always managed to catch her at her cutest and post it all over social media for her.

 

Ian Harding also avoided getting his own Snapchat—is this an Ezria thing?—but is a frequent visitor on his costars accounts showing off his mastery of the Snapchat filter.

 

We even got to see some of our favorite PLL ships be equally adorable off camera.

 

It’s bittersweet to know that the backstage shenanigans pulled off by Shay and Ashley, the quiet moments Troian loved to document, and the long waits alongside his costars that Keegan loved to make ironic have come to a close. We should find comfort in the fact that although filming may be over, we have a whole new season of Pretty Little Liars to look forward to in 2017. Then we can watch all of our favorites on the big screen where they truly belong. To the cast—thanks for all of the social media memories, there will never be a better bunch than you.
