I recently started watching this show a few months ago (it is shown on the televisions at the gym where I workout). When it first came out I thought it would be more along the lines of "Bewitched" only with more of the single girl on her own slant of "Mary Tyler Moore". However, as I started looking at it, it really was more like another creation by the late Aaron Spelling, "Charlie's Angels". The show pretty much is one of your standard issue action series with a supernatural twist. However, the thing that saves it is the relationship between the three sisters. Also, to me the show seemed to pick up steam once Shannon Doherty quit and was replaced by Rose McGowan. That seemed to put more of a humorous element into the show that it seemed to lack due to her character Paige's lack of experience at being a witch. This definitely is one interesting show.

The occult got very hip on television with the arrival of Charmed. The show centered on three sisters played by Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano and Shannen Doherty. As the show opened these three sisters who are their own BFFs discover they're the descendants of witches. But witches like Glinda the good witch. That doesn't mean that someone usually not of flesh and blood wouldn't want to drop a house on them as all kinds of evil things are tried against one or all of them every week.

What made this show work was that these girls were quite modern. the ultimate 90s women. Young girls identified with him and men certainly would have chosen any one of them for adventure and romance.

Unfortunately Shannen Doherty as she did on 90210 was quite the behavioral problem and she left the show. Another sister played by Rose McGowan was rather clumsily introduced as we could not alter what the writers called The Power of Three from the show. When the women put their powers together, just like the Power Rangers they were unstoppable.

Reruns of Charmed are still proving popular today. My two nieces loved the show when it was in first run and still like the reruns.

Okay, I just watched one episode a few week ago, and that was it for me. I AM HOOKED! I admit that this show is very addicting! Now, my Sunday's night are booked.

Performances of such talented actors truly ignites the screen. Piper, Phoebe, Paige, Leo, and Cole are such great, and very talented performers. I hope this show will run for a very, very long time. I will truly recommend this show to all my friends. Thumbs up to the creator, writers and all the crew. This show rocks!!!!

Three sisters share a house in San Francisco. Being descended from witches they have special powers. They use these powers to fight crime and evil.

Entertaining. A tad formulaic but the plots are reasonably interesting. The three main characters are given depth and this contributes positively to the sub-plots and the engagement level.

Engagement does diminish from Season 4 onwards though. Rose McGowan / Paige is irritating and is not in the same league as Shannen Doherty / Prue.

I still to this day am watching "Charmed" episodes as they even after all these years continue to air weekday mornings on "TNT", proving the popularity is ever lasting as the series became a pop culture magnet. Set in the city by the bay San Francisco you have three Halliwell sisters that being Piper(Holly Marie Combs) Phoebe(the sexy Alyssa Milano) and Prue(Shannen Doherty) who live together and they are special they have powers plus they are modern day witches! They have the special abilities to stop time, move objects, and see into the future. And along the way each episode and each season they battle the forces of supernatural evil from ghosts, demons, warlocks, and monsters. Many episodes are interesting and entertaining involving stories that involve the past of old enchanted fairy tales and it's always nice to see the girls cast up powerful spells and potions from their book of shadows as black magic and wicca is well on display in this series. Also at the end of the third season after Prue is no longer Paige(Rose McGowan) a half sister is introduced. These witches were sexy and modern day as several eye candy scenes were memorable as each had some intimate between the sheets scenes with their boyfriends, and to spice the series up I remember some episodes in which the girls wore sexy colored bras(I remember Alyssa sporting one very silk sexy multi colored bra in one episode late in one season of the series!) Really not everyone's cup of tea, yet if you like beautiful sexy women and a series that involves witches and good and evil with spells and magic then cast your eyes on this.
