    Description of Charmed - The Complete Series:
    Charmed recaptured a period in the 1ate 1990s when television's WB network was particularly keen on series about the supernatural and specially-powered characters. The original home of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and future launch pad for Angel and Smallville, the WB debuted Charmed in 1998 with many of the same intriguing ironies that made those other shows click. Specifically, the greater a character's powers, the more vulnerable he or she becomes; the more superhuman, the more painfully obvious one's lonely, fragile humanity. The Halliwells, a trio of witch heroines and siblings at the center of Charmed, are a case in point. Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) returns to her San Francisco family home after losing her job, and moves in with her older sisters Prue (Shannen Doherty) and Piper (Holly Marie Combs). On her first night back, Phoebe finds the Book of Shadows left for them by their late mother and recites a spell giving all three women unique powers they were always meant to have. Prue suddenly has the gift of telekinesis, Piper can make time stand still, and Phoebe can see into the future. All well and good, but along with those extraordinary abilities comes a new awareness of dark forces in the world from which mortals need protection. In some cases, those forces have been plotting a long time to steal the Halliwells’ magical legacy once they awakened to it--and now they will never let up. Indeed, the forces of the Underworld never do let up in Charmed, giving the Halliwells a major headache for the next eight seasons. Yet the show became about so much more than that, blending (again, like Buffy) the sisters’ personal lives with their responsibilities as protectors and stewards of magic. Jobs, lovers, marriage, and children were just as prominent in Prue’s, Phoebe’s, and Piper’s thoughts and emotions as warlocks and leprechauns. In fact, Charmed peaked creatively when the whole of season three concerned the fallout of Phoebe’s romance and marriage to a disguised demon (Julian McMahon). The series’ focus at that point was quite gripping, but it was inevitable that subsequent seasons would back off on such a singular perspective and develop a broader range of storylines. A major change in Charmed accompanied the departure of Shannen Doherty from the show at the end of season three, replaced by Rose McGowan as a fourth sister, Paige, unknown to either Phoebe or Piper. While Paige had the same mother (herself a witch) as the other two surviving Halliwell girls, her father was a so-called Whitelighter, essentially an angel. That combination gave Paige unique gifts that made Charmed even more fun (if slightly less compelling). But the loss of Doherty--the show’s best actress, who gave at least one bravura performance per season--proved significant. Charmed wasn’t quite the same, but it carried on, continuing to make new fans and maintaining a breathless pace and intriguing mix of the arcane and ordinary. --Tom Keogh

    Charmed - The Complete Series Reviews:
    Charmed, the complete series 1 Star Review
    2008-09-06 - loved the programme, loved the art work on each of the box sets.well packaged, arrived in emaculate condition for an over seas send. was disappointed to find two episodes on disc 3 of season 1 were incorrect. amazon.com were great, they have agreed to replace the items. the problem with buying a multi-boxed set is that if you have a defect in 1 box set, you have to send all of the boxes back, not just the set with the defect.

    DVDs effected by witchcraft? 3 Star Review
    2008-09-02 - It's a fun series, and a perfect remedy during the long hours my mom has to spend on the couch as she recuperates from surgery. She's about 3 seasons in, but I'm waiting on pins and needles each time she gets to a new episode, because we've already come across 2 episodes that were out of order. The episodes start, and then the opening sequence plays, and the episodes start up again, only they are the wrong ones, they cut to episodes that are included in full later in the season! I have no idea what to do about this, because I truly doubt if I returned the entire set that a new set would contain a pristine copy of every episode. So fair warning, there are certainly oodles of episodes to watch, but you may end up like me and pay for every season but end up getting sold short.

    Love the series but... 4 Star Review
    2008-07-13 - I loved the series but I noticed when I bought this set that some of the episodes were switched on the disc. Episodes that were listed as on the back of some disks were actually on other discs, it explained why I was so thrown off and confused.


    Did this happen to anyone else?

    Light-Hearted Magical Series But No True Hard-Core Drama 4 Star Review
    2008-05-26 - This is another gift I got on my B-day since my family saw I liked the dresden files series they thought this would be a good addition. What I feel the show has is pretty decent but the stories you got per episode or the storyline for one of the seasons seemed either a little childish or to light in the drama department to truly take very seriously. The one thing I liked of the dresden files was that each episode while had some humor mostly was serious and very and sometimes darkly dramatic in each episode. The charmed series it seemed tried to make some dramatic episodes and while all are not bad most seemed to make the drama to lightly or put to many boring cliche jokes or magical mishaps to truly take what was happening to the characters seriously. True there were some some sad episodes like the death of Prue after season three which I find a bit ironic since it seemed in each season after words that one of the sisters would always die and than be brought back again the same episode(I know the actress who played Prue was either fired or quit so that is why she never came back to the show). The series all in all is not bad or great but in between which I call adequate so I say buy the first episode check it out and see if you're willing to get the rest of the series..
