    Hello. Charmed to meet you.

    Oh, yes, the puns. The glorious puns! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAH-! -cough-

    So, I decided to check this out at the library five years ago and went through the series pretty damn quickly. Liked Phoebe and Piper at first, and then fell in love with all of the characters. I now have the complete series on DVD. Haven't checked out any of the comic books, nor had a chance to play the mobile game. Because I don't have a cellphone that can do that. Because we're cheap. Unless I can find one at a Dollar Tree. Everything should be sold at Dollar Trees. Just saying.

    I got sidetracked pretty easily there. Anyway, Piper is best character. She gets to do everything. Mom, wife, sister, leader, hero, badass, plus she's the only one who gets to wear normal clothes while the other two sisters were exploited for sex appeal. But when she wanted to be sexy goddamn was she sexy! Her powers are also the best.

    Pretty much the only thing I remember about Charmed is that Cole was pretty tasty looking.

    I have been meaning to rewatch it, though. Maybe I'll get around to that soon, then I'll be able to contribute more meaningfully to this thread.

    Nah Carnelian, i see what you mean but Cole wasnt physically my type, i just absolutely LOVED Julian McMahon's portrayal of this very exellent very complex character.

    My type was that guy Dan in series 2. Wowser! That is until he turned into a jerk towards the end, it almost made me forget those perfectly chisled looks

    And i think we all know about Ayen's love for the ladies . And Ayen I agree that they did have Milano and McGowan showing too much skin sometimes (but the weird thing is, Rose McGowan has complained about being treated as a sex object, and how she seems to change her mind about her beliefs every 5 minutes anyway I really dont know what to make of her)

    Never was charmed. I tried watching an episode or two and got so bored.

    The power of three, beats everything.

    I liked watching this show at 11AM back when I was an unemployed college grad.

    My mom loved it, I thought it was okay. I kind of hated all the main girls though. I liked that bad guy turned good guy turned bad

    Cole changed alignment more times than The Big Show on WWE programming.

    I know but that's what made him great. And he still comes out of the ether as some kind of in between spirit in season 7

    I got burnt out on the Cole storyarc by Season 5. They really should have left well enough alone after he was vanquished near the end of Season 4.

    One of my favourite series from childhood!

    Piper is the best. I had a crush on Leo in the earlier seasons not so much later.

    I quite liked him coming back. But I do realise they had to stop eventually and halfway through season 5 they did. He was a complex tortured character with fatal flaws, you can't go for too long on that.

    I used to love this show when it was on. The main reason I started watching Nip/Tuck was because I had the hots for Julian McMahon.

    I actually liked Prue. Am I the only one?

    She warmed up on me by Season Three, and then she died. Didn't even get an on-screen death. I honestly thought I missed an episode when I first switched to Season Four.

    Yeah but I heard Shannen Doherty was being a diva so she made it impossible for them. There's only ever been rumours but, considering they can bring ghosts back in that show, Prue never appears again. Didn't said actress make sure of this? Or did she annoy them so much they banned all images of her? I've heard both things
