CHARMED BOARD GAME THE SOURCE
(ENGLISH VERSION)
2-4 players 10 years & up The source is the dominant power of the forces of the evil, it directs the demon hordes which wish to control humanity. With the disappearance of Prue, the Source thought he got rid of the Halliwell sisters and their Power of the 3. But today, the sisters are again 3 and their power was reinforced. To impose its reign, the Source thus will have, once more, to face the 3 witches in order to seize the Power of the 3, last rampart of humanity. Master of the play, hear me! That the Source is erased in front of the Power of the 3. That it disappears and that nobody re-examines it. Can the chance being on my side and the being part gained...​

I don't really watch Charmed. I've seen it once or twice and I thourght it was okay, but no where near as good as Buffy and Angel. A really weired girl at my school who I can't stand said to me the other day that EVERYONE who loves Buffy and Angel hates it now and only watches Charmed because it is funny because one of the sisters has two daughters. I was like 'what the hell?'.
 
I take it upon myself to force anybody who badmouths charmed to watch it.

I am such a huge fan on Charmed boards im Wiccanwitchoftheeast.

I have converted a lot of people. I cannot wait for season 7. I am so impatient, but because i live in the uk it's gonna be ages till it's aired 🙁 so i have to make do watching my videos of it continuously.

What's everyones fave eppy and season?

OMG! A BEW CHARMED BOARD GAME!! OMG! I'm so exited!! :lick2:
 
Lots of new faces chatting about Charmed 😀😀😀 I am sooo looking forward to S7!
 
Yea I'm looking foward to the new season. as long as they get away from the fairy tales I think they will be okay. I just can't take any more of that. I wish that they would have focused on the evil Wyatt thing more. It would have been cool if they screwed up for once and Wyatt would actually turn evil. "Chris-Crossed" was a really promising ep but i think they screwed it up a bit afterwards.
 
I used to love the show but now the loves fading, I just think its going downhill. I won't be watching S7, I've read some spoilers but none that have made me go "Wow, must watch". It had its moments but now I think its being dragged on a bit.
 
I'm just gonna stay positive and hope for the best. It's a good show. I hope they really revive it for Season 7.

Works like a charm

By Peter Mattessi
July 22, 2004

Charmed is not what you think. Not what I thought, anyway. I thought it was a silly piece of fluff aimed at pre-teen girls who think quality drama means pretty actresses, cute boys and a series of glamorous outfits. I was convinced it was a throwaway hour of guiltless fun that had more in common with the cheesiness of Sabrina the Teenage Witch than it did with the allegory and far-reaching emotional resonance of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

But as I found myself waiting more and more impatiently for the next episode, the somewhat unpleasant realisation hit me that there must be something else to Charmed besides the fashion. And I was determined to figure out what it was.

There is no doubt that Charmed is pitched at a younger demographic than Buffy. Its storytelling technique is far simpler, information is more directly conveyed, and the dialogue is littered with pop-cultural references that even I felt a little old for. But this does not make it fluff. Its stories may be simply told, but they are not simplistic. In fact, they have the potential to create surprising emotional resonance.

It is light, though, and has an extraordinary commitment to fashion, but Charmed knows its audience and it knows exactly how to connect with it. Through its three protagonists - Paige (Rose McGowan), Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) - Charmed tackles questions of duty, obligation, family, responsibility and sacrifice. Big questions. And it handles them pretty well.

The Halliwell sisters are the "Charmed Ones", three witches destined, according to an ancient prophecy, to fight evil and protect innocents. Which they generally manage to achieve with only slight complications. The magic in Charmed, despite its at times earth-shattering implications, is very low-key. There is not much blood, dismemberment or disembowelment. Which is fine, because, as in Buffy, magic is far less important than the personal lives of the characters. Thus magical elements (a demon, a curse) are usually wrapped up within the episode, while personal stories run through the series.

Charmed is really about the battles fought by young women trying to make their way in the world. How do they balance the responsibility of being a Charmed One with the desire to chase spunky boys? And what about a career? Is it even a possibility? Or will they end up, as Phoebe's newspaper colleague warns, chasing work success at the expense of everything else, including love? It is nice to see a show even bothering to ask these questions, especially when so many series are content to hold an audience to the next commercial break, let alone into next week.

Charmed puts these questions to three very different female characters, then sets them off to find the answers themselves. It's a woman's world at the Halliwell manor, and though the men - Leo (Brian Krause) and Chris (Drew Fuller) - are "whitelighters", there to guide and protect the sisters, their advice is only occasionally listened to, rarely heeded and often mocked.

The girls' late grandmother (Jennifer Rhodes) and magical guide of sorts (she reappears from time to time) thinks "men are like utensils: you use them, wash them and throw them in a drawer until you need them again". But the Halliwell sisters disagree and spend most of their time dating boys, talking about boys and addressing boy problems. For Paige and Phoebe, this is a seemingly endless parade of romantic trivialities. But Piper, the eldest and most mature, is a single mother trying to find a man who will love her and her young son, Wyatt. Her son, by the way, is intent on scaring off would-be suitors with a fairly dodgy magical trick.

But no one watches Charmed for the magical effects. Like the best fantasy or science fiction, the magic serves to create a different narrative space, to allow the writers to play with their characters in new ways. What happens when characters completely lose their inhibitions? With the freedom to introduce something like a spell, Charmed is able to answer this.

And if the spell is cast at the precise moment that all three sisters are contemp-lating a life away from the family home, it creates not only comedy in the sisters' almost immediate transformation into slathering hornbags, forbut also reveals that all three are wondering if there might not be more to life than being a Charmed One. And that is a big moment. It is not gritty, realist drama, but it is honest and emotional and often nicely subtle. It also carries a positive message: the girls are strongest when they invoke the "Power of Three" - a simple allegory for the ethos that supporting your family and friends is the most important thing.

And, of course, there is the fashion, and it is unfailingly spectacular. Sending the sisters back to the '60s has value for the story, but it also gives the girls a chance to dress up in the most garish '60s costumes the costume department could lay its hands on.

That's Charmed for you: nice and light, lots of fun, and a warm message at the end. And with so many questionable role models out there for pre-teen girls, that is not such a bad thing.

Charmed screens on Thursdays at 7.30pm on Channel Ten.

Thats cool that they will have a Charmed magazine, I will look for it. I really hope that this season of Charmed breaks away from the fairytale theme of the last few years I want more demons and fighting.
