    With "Once Upon A Time" about to debut later this month, I remember "The Charmings"

    I remember the show being hilarious and trying to figure out which dwarf Luther was (out of the seven). Paul Winfield was fantastic as The Mirror. I real wish this was on Nick at Nite or I would buy this if it was released on DVD. And it was really a family show, there were laughs for adults and kids alike :) I remember liking the first Snow White and wasn't as thrilled with the second one. I had a major crush on Christopher Rich. People thought I was crazy because I always called him Prince Charming. That's when I found out that not many people watched The Charmings :( I noticed that the postings for this show are far and few in between, but if you can find this show, watch it, you'll be really happy with it.

    One of the best shows of the 80's

    I watched this show from day one and fell in love with Lillian. Scheming, malicious evil women are my one weakness. I always felt they should have chucked the rest of the cast and made it the Lillian and the magic mirror show. I still have all 21 episodes from 1987 that are still in good viewing condition, save one ep. I just watched them not long ago after learning of Paul Winfield's untimely death.

    Paul Winfield has some great one liners throughtout the series.

    Lillian: "Lets see..what should I wear?" (Begins to disrobe) Mirror: "I dont know but if you're taking your clothes off I'm leaving. (disappears from view

    Mirror: "Ok, Lillian. You want to know who's fairer than you? (Pulls out telephone book and opens it) "Now this is just the greater los angeles area."

    Lillian: "Im good with forest animals" Mirror: "you barbecue them"

    Lillian get sick and Mirror tells her to open wide so he can look Mirror: "Whoa! Its all nasty back there Lillian: "what should I do?" Mirror: Close your mouth! Your'e making me sick!"

    Plus so many more. I wish one day these would be released to dvd. Charmings rule!

    Mirror, Mirror where are they now?

    I wish TVland or Nick at Nite would run a marathon because I adore this show. It was so funny. I do miss it. Tis the season to be dreaming of your prince charming which I adore the entire cast. I wonder where they all went probably into the enchanted forest...someday they will all return for a reunion.

    The Charmings was simply that! Charming!

    This was an awesome show! Carol Huston is a very talented and beautiful actress. I could watch this show every day! The dialogue was witty. The premise of fairy tale characters living in the modern world is very clever. The talking mirror as character of the show was wonderful. I would go ogle and watch this show as much as possible. I hope they have a reunion show so that everyone can enjoy the fine acting especially of Carol Huston. I highly recommend the show. It is a very fine show. It was very fun to watch the player interaction. I could imagine myself there. This is a lot to write in order to get this comment published. I don't really have anything else to say. I am filling up space to get the 10 lines I need.

    "THE CHARMINGS" WAS UTTERLY CHARMING ! !

    This TV Sit-com was just adorable, and Christopher Rich (Miller from Murphy Brown) was the ideal Prince Charming ! ! The idea was that Snow White, her husband Prince Charming, and their children, plus evil step-mother and her talking mirror, were thrown into modern society, thanks to a spell from the step-mother which went awry.....it was similar to 'BEWITCHED", in the sense that we had the fun of seeing our favorite fairy-tale and mythological characters come to life as a result of different spells going awry each week. Paul Winfield was a riot, as the talking mirror who threw caustic insults at the vain step-mother....(think Niles and Miss Babcck on the Nanny).....I am a-waiting for Nik at Nite, or TV LAND to re-run these...and you should, too ! !

    • Trivia
      Caitlin O'Heaney said she loved playing Snow White, but that Prudence Fraser and Robert Sternin were first-time producers who were easily influenced by someone who told them she was too much like Snow White and that the series should be more modern and contemporary. So they replaced her with another actress, but the show still got canceled.
    • Quotes

      Snow White Charming: Mother, you shouldn't be doing bad deeds this close to Christmas, you want to be on your best behavior for Santa.

      Queen Lillian White: Santa? You two still believe in Santa? Oh this is rich.

      Snow White Charming: Why shouldn't we believe in him?

      Eric Charming: Hasn't he come every year on Christmas Eve?

      Queen Lillian White: This is not the Enchanted Forrest, this is the Twentieth Century. There are no wishing wells, no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, and certainly no Santa Claus.

      Sally Miller: [knocks on the door, then enters] Hi, you guys want to come to the mall to see Santa Claus?
