Charmed..the original.

That was kinda what I was asking about. So I appreciate it. I've but Charmed on hold for now and watching Supernatural on my commute.

Supernatural is an even better choice and, again, people might tell you to stop after 5; just don't listen! 😀

Charmed and Supernatural:

Stop watching after season 5.

Correct.
Watch season 1-5, then skip right on ahead to s11. So don't stop, just hop. 😛

(I will try to do a re-watch of s6-10 at some point to see if my memory is unduly harsh)

I love Benny, so the post purgatory season is great, think that was season 8

I also, personally, find that 7 is a lot better than its reputation - people always clump 6&7 together, but one is much better/stronger than the other.

I never understand advising someone to stop watching before a show is over; everyone has different taste.

And, btw, in my opinion, season 6 of Charmed is the best, so I'd never tell you to quit after 5 🙂

Are you some kind of TV sadist 😄 Unless a show has a huge turn around after a season or so then you know whether you'll like it or not early on. Why subject someone to a million episodes of something they're unlikely to enjoy?

 

[Cohen]

Definitely try more episodes! Things get really interesting when Cole keeps popping up, Piper develops the ability to blow things up, Phoebe becomes the Queen of Evil...trust me. It's quite entertaining.

(Don't go beyond S5 because it kinda sucks)

I agree wholeheartedly with this analysis! 3-5 1/2 was peak Charmed!

 

[spikenbuffy]

Charmed is quite good until season 5 then becomes good again in S6 but then sucks badly. Season 5 & 7 are the worst. Season 3, 4 & 6 are quite great though. And yeah Phoebe Evil Queen was great, I felt for her so bad when she had to kill Cole though!!!

 

[ILLYRIAN]

But I got spoiled by the one guy from Supernatural did his best work in Dark Angel. And the other guy was great in the film Cry Wolf, not so in Supernatural, glad I didn't watch it.

 

[ILLYRIAN]

RachM, I seem to remember you have quite a good DVD collection, I have reached a 100 vampire films - at last.

 

[Anyanka Bunny Slayer]

Spoilers!

Also, Paige kills Phoebe...and Cole discovers that he's the son of a former Australian PM.

😛

 

[ILLYRIAN]

Odd isn't it, that virtually everyone on the show wanted Paige dead at some point, (some of the shows viewers still do) except Cole who wanted to keep ogling her through the binoculars. You knew he was evil 'cos he smiled!

Yet of all the times when the quality of acting let Paige or Phoebe down did they ever get as crap as the new charmed sisters, let they never become French - Charmagellion

The Greek charmed , Charmetheus.
