The Insider: Tyler Blackburn Speaks About the Summer Finale, "A" Team for Caleb, Haleb and 3B!

The Insider did a post-finale interview with Tyler Blackburn, who spoke about the finale, different possible betrAyers, Haleb, Caleb's growing role on the show and what's ahead in 3B!
 
On what Tyler thought of the episode
"It was so crazy! Obviously you read scripts and know what's coming, but the finished product was so mind-blowing. I got chills. It was really, really good. I feel like there was so much thrown in your face. I'm sure people are still in shock a little bit."
On what Tyler thought the first time he read through the finale script
"I got a little freaked out ... but I also knew I wasn't going to die. It was a moment of "Oh God..." but it was just one of the many surprises about reading this script at the table read. We filmed a few different "A" reveals, so we didn't actually know what was going to be used. It was mysterious to all of us until last night."
On who were the other unmasked "A"'s
"They shot Toby, Caleb and Paige all in the black hoodie at the end. Obviously they went with Toby, which is crazy!"
On whether Tyler is disappointed Caleb was chosen to be part of the "A" Team
"I would have been happy either way – it would have been an amazing twist. This mystery of "Who is A?" has taken over the world, so to be an "A" would have been kind of monumental. But at the same time, I'm digging being the guy who gets shot too."
On what Tyler made of Ashley's crying performance in the finale
"What's so funny is, on set, I was watching on the monitors and she just goes there so quickly and so genuinely but as soon as they yell cut, she's on her phone texting. It’' the craziest thing to watch. But Ashley has an extremely emotional availability and it's moving to watch. Watching it, it broke my heart. She almost made me cry last night."
On what's ahead for Haleb
"I think they're going to have to be more secretive about their relationship moving forward because of "A" – but in a way, that makes it a little more exciting because they'll have to keep it secret. Their [relationship is] extremely resilient. I feel like it's going to continue being a rollercoaster given the nature of the show, but I do think they're a really solid couple and that's what I like most about them. I feel like they're Bonnie and Clyde. They have each other's backs."
On who shot Caleb and more about the lighthouse scene in 3B
"You'll get more information about [what happened in the lighthouse] but for now, it's something that should remain a mystery. I don't want to say too much because it was designed to leave some open questions. You'll have to wait and see."
On whether Caleb is in the Halloween epsiode
"Yeah. There's some mystery attached to how, but he does make an appearance."
On how Tyler feels about becoming such an important part of the show, with Caleb helping the Liars to find the answers they want
"It was really cool. You can only play the naive dude for so long. It was great to get in on the action – and the fact he's so willing to help shows how passionate he is for Hanna and her friends. He wants to help. I think that's part of his nature. He's been through so much, he's learned to survive and I think he's only going to continue being helpful to them moving forward."
On what's ahead for Caleb in 3B
"We're still shooting season three and I like the direction it's going in. He has a lot of integrity, he's like a knight in shining armor in a lot of ways, and I think those two [qualities] will continue to be a common thread through the rest of season three. Obviously I don't know the writer's plan after that, but I hope he always maintains a bit of his badass-ness. I want him to help [the PLLs] but at the same time, I want him to stick to his guns and rise to the occasion and shake some things up!"
On congratulating Tyler for surviving a PLL finale!
"[laughs] I know! They're dropping like flies around here man."
What are you most excited for? What do you think is ahead for Caleb and Haleb?
