"Centennial Charmed"

Description: "In his twisted attempt to win Phoebe's heart back, Cole casts a spell that alters reality, which eliminates Paige as a Halliwell and destroys the Power of Three. Meanwhile, Paige suddenly finds that her sisters have no knowledge of her existence, and that past villains have come back to haunt them."

Happy 100th episode Charmed Ones and Happy 100th Birthday Cole! Unfortunately, this will be Cole's last episode as a regular on the show. So this episode was Cole's last ditch effort to try and make things work with Phoebe, by completely surrendering himself over to the Avatars. I still can't believe he could have stooped so low and despite the fear of consequence, turned back time to before Piper and Phoebe knew about Paige. I don't think I realized at first until I watched this episode, but Paige was the best thing to ever happen to the Halliwell family after Prue died. She kept Piper and Phoebe going even when they had lost all hope of living at times. It was kind of sad to see how Piper turned out in the alternate reality, and it showed how bad her downward spiral after Prue died would have turned out if the Charmed Ones hadn't been reconstituted. It was kind of cool to see her so badass though, but at the cost it wasn't worth it. I couldn't believe that her and Leo had gotten divorced in the alternate reality, but it most likely had to do with her obsession over killing Shax. I thought it was hilarious how Piper's views about home birthing are the same in either reality. She's still the same person, just a little more mean and with a vendeta. I was glad to see that the love between Piper and Phoebe hadn't changed, even though Piper was on a demon killing spree and Phoebe was shacking up with demons left and right. My favorite quote in this episode is when Phoebe was yelling at Cole about how their life was and Phoebe said, "You know damn right the only reason I stayed with you was to make sure that the same thing that happened to Prue doesn't happen to Piper too!" That is so sweet and sad at the same time! It was funny to see Paige trying to get everybody to believe that she was their sister, and good thing she did convince them or she would have ended up in the loony bin. Speaking of good things, Paige was lucky she sneezed when she did or the Charmed Ones as we know them would no longer be existing in this normal reality. It was kind of cool to see all the demons that the Charmed Ones have vanquished since Paige came around, back. Such as the Seer, because even though she was evil, she probably qualifies as my favorite demon. I can't explain it, but her insight and knowledge, coupled with her thirst for power, is just so intriguing. This episode also marks Cole's downfall, because he didn't count on when they went to the alternate reality that he wouldn't be indestructible. You guys might find it hard to believe, but believe it because he's finally gone. I hate to say it, but I'm almost glad he's gone although I'll miss him immensely, but now the Charmed Ones, especially Phoebe, can fully move on with their lives without always cleaning up after Cole's messes. Don't worry, he will be gone for a long time, but he does occasionally make his face shown, although never again as a living person. Bye Cole, you go on the list of the forever missed! Happy 100th Holly, Brian, Dorian, Alyssa, and Rose! Keep these episodes coming because they are great, and without their greatness this blog wouldn't be possible. Here's to another 76 episodes! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

Peace, Love, and Charmed

"The Importance Of Being Phoebe"

Description: "After kidnapping Phoebe, Cole sends a shapeshifter to assume Phoebe's identity, to help him manipulate Piper and Paige into giving him ownership of the manor, allowing him access to the powerful Nexus located beneath the house. Meanwhile, Phoebe plans her escape, while Cole gets Paige arrested, and ensures that Piper's club fails to pass health inspection, in order to keep them distracted."

First sabotaging Phoebe's career, ruining Piper's club, getting Paige hurt, arrested, and charged for vehicular homicide, and then taking over the manor, the only question now is what else does Cole have up his sleeve. It has gotten to the point now where I'm so confused. I don't know what his true intentions are, either to force the Charmed Ones to kill him or to win Phoebe back, because he keeps flip flopping between the two. I gotta say though, using the law to get to the sisters is pretty ingenious, because at first the girls didn't even expect that he was the one behind all the stuff happening. Although, who would really sue an advice columnist because you left your husband at the altar? I would understand if maybe your husband left you at the altar because of something he read in the column, but the woman had free reign, no one forced her to do anything. Phoebe just writes the advice, it's people's perogative whether they do anything with the advice given or not. Poor Piper, P3 is like her baby and so far they've had nothing bad happen to it, until Cole decided to get involved. A funny quote in this episode is when the health inspector was just about to give Piper another chance when he sees mice run under the counter, and Piper says, "No, they don't live here, they're just trying to RUIN MY LIFE!!" Too funny! Okay, how pathetic is it that Cole wants Phoebe back so bad, that he is using shape-shifting strippers so they can shift into Phoebe so he can get his jollys. I don't know where the real Cole Turner that I know went, but I want him back. I don't know who or what has made him this way, but the real Cole would never act this way. I guess this is what a broken heart can do to a person, but Phoebe had the same broken heart and this hasn't happened to her. I felt bad for Paige because she felt so guilty over what was happening with that woman. It wasn't Paige's fault, but since they hadn't quite figured out that Cole was behind all of it, she still blamed herself. Cole has stooped to a whole new low if he's back to killing innocents. It is so sad to see how loving and funny and protective Cole used to be, and then we see this Cole who is just an empty evil shell of his former self. I mourn the loss of the old Cole! Okay, about this Kaya girl that was impersonating Phoebe to get closer to Cole. You would think that since the Halliwell sisters are so close, that they would easily be able to tell when someone is being impersonated. But every single time one of them is in that situation, in my opinion it takes them far to long, especially when the differences are obvious. I was proud of Phoebe when she took initiative at the end of the episode and walked into the manor that was full of demons, to take back the power of the Nexus. This is the first time that a demon has tried to take possession of the Nexus, but it won't be the last. And good ole Phoebe used that spell which originated from Grams from back when Phoebe was a child and was scared of the Woogy. "I am light. I am one too strong to fight. Return to dark where shadows dwell, you cannot have this Halliwell. Go away and leave my sight, and take with you this endless night." It also happens to be my favorite spell from the whole show.

"Y Tu Mummy Tambien"

Description: "Phoebe falls prey to Jeric, a demon in search of the perfect body to hold the spirit of Isis, his dead lover. To trap the spirit, Jeric mummifies Phoebe's body. Meanwhile, Cole tries to save Phoebe by making a deal with the demon."

I guess the question would be, how far are people willing to go to save the people they love? Jeric has spent a good majority of his life hunting down different witches, mummifying them, switching the spirits, just for the body to die and him to have to start all over again. Jeric must have really loved Isis, but I thought demons didn't have the ability to love? Hmm, interesting. What are the chances that the crystal would have chosen Phoebe out of all the other witches in San Francisco? That's kind of odd, but maybe it had something to do with how powerful Phoebe is or what kind of powers they share, if any. For someone who has given up on ever getting Phoebe back, he sure was willing to put himself through Hell to save her from Jeric. I find it hilarious how he had no trouble willingly giving up Paige though as a sacrifice for Phoebe. Unless using Phoebe to make Piper choose between which one of her sisters to save, is part of his plan for self-destruction, I can't figure him out. Those powers have literally driven him crazy, so much to the point where he is bipolar. I think it's strange how Piper goes from one episode barely showing, to the next episode needing maternity clothes. That was quick! I love how she didn't want anyone making a big deal out of the fact that she's pregnant, because that's always been Piper's personality, not wanting to be the center of attention. My favorite quote in this episode is when Daryl was reaching out to touch Piper's stomach and saying how beautiful she was, and Piper grabs his arm and says, "Make one more move, and you pull back a bloody stub." Poor Daryl puts up with a lot of crap, and I'm glad that the sisters realize this and helped him to get that promotion. It's about time Daryl got promoted, since he's been a inspector for at least 4 years, if not more. I also love the scene between Leo and Piper in the attic when he catches her looking in the mirror, and says how beautiful she is pregnant. I have a feeling that as soon as this baby is born, Piper is going to be back to her normal quick-witted, quirky, sarcastic, quick-butt self. In the end, Piper was able to find a way to save both Phoebe and Paige, and to banish Jeric back to wherever the Hell he came from. Pun intended! Cole better watch out because the more he pisses the Halliwells off, the more they're going to try to kill you. When or if they succeed (I'm not going to give anything away), you better believe that it's going to hurt! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Sam I Am"

Description: "Paige gets to know the whitelighter in her, when she meets her first charge, a man named Sam. Unbeknownst to her, Sam is actually her real father. Meanwhile, Cole rashly tries to get himself vanquished by The Charmed Ones. Piper and Leo have problems in finding a magical creature that does the babysitting part. Things go bad to worse when they're poisoned by a darklighter, leaving Sam as the only one that can save them."

Paige has fully come to embrace her witch side, but is she quite ready to fully embrace her whitelighter side? She seems to think so, until she has a difficult run in with her first charge and father. It was sad that Sam thought he wasn't good enough to call himself Paige's father, and didn't want her to know how much of a failure he thought he was. Losing Patty Halliwell to the water demon was the worst thing to ever happen to Sam, and so soon after they gave up their only daughter together, really put him over the edge. Apparently when we saw Sam die last time ("P3 H2O" Season 2), he was made a whitelighter again by the elders. I fully believe that maybe Sam would have liked it better if he could have stayed dead with Patty, but I guess the elders had different plans. Paige definitely is a natural whitelighter because she was good at it before she even knew who Sam really was, but Paige did more healing for Sam this episode than anyone would have ever thought possible, and she didn't need her whitelighter powers to do it either. This episode also marked Cole's downward spiral into self destruction, because he has given up on living since he now knows there's no chance he'll ever get Phoebe back, and Phoebe is his only reason for living. In the end, the person I feel the most sorry for is Cole, because Phoebe has other chances to put all this behind her and move on with a normal life, but without Phoebe, Cole has no normal life and he refuses to be evil. Those Avatars were a bit weird, and they seemed to know something about Cole that even he didn't know. I'm glad that in the end Cole decided he didn't want anything to do with them, because I'm not going to give anything away, but they pose a huge problem two years from now. The Charmed Ones are stumped now, because Cole is going to keep doing things to make them mad enough to want to vanquish him, but apparently he's indestructible. I don't know what kind of freaky powers he picked up in the realm he was in, but something happened to him that is completely unnatural. Speaking of indestructible, to quote Piper, "Apparently, the baby likes Mommy to be indestructible." I don't think they have to worry at all about Piper's safety while she's pregnant, because the baby has more than proved itself capable of protecting Piper from anything. It's just everybody else in the family they have to worry about, especially when darklighters are involved and half of the family are whitelighters. Good thing that Sam was there, or Leo and Paige wouldn't be here right now. It was great to see Paige and Sam reconnect after all these years, but unfortunately this is the second and the last time we'll ever see Sam on the show. For some reason, the producers didn't find it necessary to continue that storyline. Sam will definitely be missed by the whole Halliwell family! "May the power of three set you free!"

"A Witch In Time"

Description: "When Phoebe must constantly save the life of her new boyfriend, a warlock shows up from the future, claiming that future Cole sent him in order to kill the boyfriend before Phoebe dies instead. However, present Cole cannot allow this and tries to help the sisters protect Miles, but when the warlock decides to work on his own agenda, by stealing the "Book of Shadows", it results in the death of two of the Halliwell sisters. The survivor must decide whether going back to change the past is the right thing to do."

Unfortunately, the number one rule of being a good witch is that you can't save every innocent. The Halliwell sisters have had to learn that rule, and then regret it over and over as they lose innocents that they had grown attached to. For Phoebe, since she has such a big heart and was just starting to get close to Miles, this was a hard lesson for her. Miles was her first serious relationship since her and Cole divorced, and to her it was important to make it work. But how much fun could she really have been having if she had to keep saving Miles all the time? Piper tried to tell her, but Miles was inevitably just a rebound, and Phoebe came to that conclusion herself by the end of the episode. I was concerned to hear that in the future, near future at that, Cole is destined to once again be The Source. At least that was the message the warlock came with from the future. I don't know how reliable this warlock is though, since by mid-episode he had completely forgotten the orginal plan and started working on his own turf. I felt so bad for Piper when Phoebe and Paige got incinerated by the warlock, because she felt so helpless and had no idea how to get them back. You can tell that Piper is really upset when she completely breaks down and has lost control, because usually she has everything together. Leo, always Piper's rock, had to reassure her that not hope was lost, and convince her to try out the time ripple. This isn't the last time we'll see the time ripple in this show, and each time it comes with more adventures. Piper used the time ripple like a pro though, and it was so funny to see her interact with her past-self. I'm surprised that past-Piper didn't try to blow up future-Piper, since everything the sisters see and do you would think they would be a little more wary of things like this happening. I don't agree with one thing in the show. The writers put in that future-Piper tells past-Piper that the next time that Phoebe has a relationship to not stand in her way. I disagree with that because Piper didn't exactly stand in her way, she just told Phoebe how she felt about it and Phoebe still did what she wanted to. My favorite quote in this episode is in the beginning when Leo and Piper are walking in with the groceries and go between Phoebe and Miles kissing, and then when they walk in the living room they run into Paige and her boyfriend making out on the couch, and Piper says, "What is this, a brothel?!" Too funny! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Sympathy For The Demon"

Description: "Barbas, the Demon of Fear, returns and tricks Paige into giving him Cole's powers, and plots revenge on the Halliwell sisters, by playing them against their darkest fears."

The Charmed Ones' favorite demon is back, and this time he's got a whole new batch of ways to use their greatest fears against them. Have you guessed who it is yet? That's right, it's Barbas, the Demon of Fear. Other than The Source, Barbas is the only demon that has been able to come back after the girls banished him, this many times. But this time he doesn't just have his usual power of turning people's greatest fears against them, he also has all of Cole's powers. Paige may have a strong head on her shoulders and the sometimes overpowering want to follow her instincts, but Piper and Phoebe are right. They have been doing this a lot longer than Paige has, and even though it doesn't matter on a lot of things, sometime Piper and Phoebe know what they're talking about and Paige needs to listen to them more. Another thing about Paige is that she keeps going to Leo behind her sisters' backs. To quote Piper in an earlier episode, "That's a smart thing to do as a witch, but an annoying thing to do as a sister." And since when did Paige turn into Cole's biggest ally. Paige has always been the one that hated Cole the most and was the first who didn't trust him, so why the sudden change, I don't know. It's great to see Phoebe getting out more with other guys, but I have a feeling she's still on the rebound. I mean, her and Cole are barely divorced, but I guess everybody is different, and it seems like she really likes this new guy. This episode brought out a whole batch of greatest fears from the sisters that we didn't even know about. Since when is Paige claustrophobic and Piper acracnophobic. It makes sense that Phoebe would be scared of becoming evil, but spiders? I know that Piper sometimes freaks out when she sees spiders, but she also freaks out when she sees any rodent or bug, that doesn't mean she has a phobia for all of them. I love the sisters' father Victor, but what kind of father leaves the family on their child's birthday? No wonder Piper thinks that something bad is going to happen everytime something good happens, because that's how she's always known it since she was a child. I felt bad for Cole because he got a chance to see how life would be if he had no powers and was normal, and then to get rid of Barbas they had to give the powers back for Cole. The look on Cole's face when he left the attic at the end of the episode just breaks my heart. Speaking of breaking my heart, the scene after Phoebe accidentally killed Paige and she's holding Paige in her arms sobbing, that is so heart wrenching. Piper is right, Phoebe doesn't have an evil bone in her body, so she has no reason to think so. The only reason she became Queen of the Underworld was because the demonic baby inside of her was swaying her toward the dark side. The real Phoebe that we have come to know and love wouldn't hurt a fly. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"The Eyes Have It"

Description: "While seeking the advice of a fortune teller regarding her missing powers, Phoebe discovers in a premonition that a demon is going to kill them all, after murdering the last one of the coven they were supposed to protect. Meanwhile, Piper wants to see a doctor about her baby, but Leo is concerned about the threat of exposure."

Gyspy magic goes back for centuries, and is almost as powerful and coveted as Charmed One magic. Unfortunately, when magic is this powerful, the wrong people tend to want it and will do anything to get it. This is where Oran comes in, who decades ago attacked the tribe and lost his eyes because of it. Now, he has sent his son Cree after the same tribe, in the hopes that this time they'll succeed. No such luck if the Charmed Ones have anything to do with it. I myself thought it was odd that Phoebe went to the fortune teller instead of talking to her sisters, since the girls usually tell each other everything. I know Phoebe said that she didn't want to worry them, but they ended up finding out anyway so she could have cut out the middle man. Good thing the sisters tend to be evasive sometimes, because if Phoebe wasn't there to witness Theresa intercepting her premonition, then the whole tribe would have eventually been wiped out. As the Charmed Ones say, "Everything happens for a reason." I felt bad for Ava, because the loss of her mother made her deny who she was. The Halliwell sisters know first hand how it is to lose someone you love, and not wanting to continue practicing what killed that loved one, is only natural. It had been so long since Eva had even thought about using Gypsy magic, that she had completely forgotten a lot of the customs and rituals. But it was nice to see her slowly get some of that back as they were working on getting ride of Oran and Cree. I think by continuing on with her heritage and her mom and aunt's traditions, that it will be a great healing process for Ava. I thought it was nice that since her mother died because she didn't have any real medicine, Ava decided to become a doctor, which shows she enjoys helping people. I found it sweet that by the end of the episode, Ava had realized that you can't fight who you really are, and became a doctor for the tribe that has no health care. It was so funny to see Piper freak out about the possibility of even a home birth. My favorite quote in this episode is when Piper and Leo are watching 'The Joys Of Home Birthing' and Paige walks in and freaks out and asks what they're watching, and Piper says, "The Joys of Home Birthing. Strangely, I'm not feeling the joy." Too funny, gotta love Piper's sense of humor. The idea of having the baby anywhere but in a hospital scares her to death, but Leo's right, having a baby around people who don't know their secret could risk exposure. Piper's tough, she'll make it, especially since she'll have her loving husband and two wonderful sisters there to help her through it. In the end, the sisters and Ava found out what the evil eye was, Oran was defeated, Phoebe got some control of her missing powers back, and Ava started to embrace her heritage again. But sadly, they lost some loved ones in the process. R.I.P Theresa and Lydia! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Witches In Tights"

Description: "When a demon coerces a boy into turning him into an evil comic book villain so he can steal an Elder's powers, the boy transforms The Charmed Ones into comic book heroes with superhuman strengths to prevent this from happening."

Many people refer to the Halliwell sisters as their heroes, but now they have the chance to be full-fledged super-hearoes, costumes and all. I thought it was cool how they easily transitioned into being a kick-butt, super-strength superhero in a matter of seconds, without even a double take. I think the girls were wishing that they could keep those neat new powers they gained, but there's a difference between wiccan powers and hero powers. How unique was it that Kevin could just draw something and it come to life? I wish I could do that all that time, but if everybody could then it wouldn't make the gift so unique. I know that children are easier to manipulate than a full grown adult, but must demons always target them. Children are for the most part innocent, so for a demon to take advantage of that is wrong. I felt bad for Kevin that he was always getting picked on by people, but that doesn't make it right that he created someone so strong that they could kill the person that was picking on him the most. I guess it's good that he felt remorse for it afterward, but he had to know that someone with so much strength would have a hard time controlling all that power, especially toward someone they hate so much. So this elder guy that the Charmed Ones were supposed to protect, he was getting on my last nerves. I'm already not the biggest fan of the elders and whitelighters because of the hard time they gave Leo and Piper about getting married and being together, but do they have to be so arrogant and rude? The Charmed Ones opened their home to you to save your butt, and you don't have the decency to respect them? No wonder no one likes those people! Now that I've got my random rant out of the way, you guys might be wondering what the elder kept hinting about Piper and Leo's baby being so special. Well it shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anybody, because look back on how much magic the baby has already done in the womb and Piper's not even showing. Can you only imagine how powerful this baby is going to be when he's actually born and through the years? Well, keep that in your head and you got what it's going to be like. All I can say, is thank God the good side has this special baby! I'm not going to give anything away, you guys are just going to have to wait and see! I thought it was hilarious when Phoebe was dangling the slum-lord off the side of the building. That dude almost about crapped his pants he was so scared, and Phoebe was just nonchalantly standing there. If it hadn't been for Cole showing up, the slum-lord would have had nothing on the sisters, and Cole wouldn't have to have killed him in the end of the episode. Speaking of the end of the episode, I felt bad when Phoebe looked at him like that. A look of a mix between pure disbelievment, a little bit of fear, betrayal, and disappointment. Phoebe and Cole's relationship will be forever missed, and for those of you who are hanging on by a sliver of a hope that they might get back together, well I have bad news for you, they don't. Sorry, but he won't leave anytime soon, so enjoy Cole while you have him! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Siren Song"

Description: "Cole and Phoebe both fall under the spell of the Siren, who lures husbands to her and entrances their wives to follow with the intent to kill, leaving Piper and Paige to figure out how to save Phoebe. Piper, upset with Leo because he doesn't understand the challenges of being pregnant, and Leo, frustrated that Piper doesn't realize the demands of being a whitelighter, have their powers switched magically by their unborn child."

Is it just me, or did you guys have a strange sense of deja vu while watching this episode? The plot line closely resembles two other episodes previously in this series, "Love Hurts" because of Piper and Leo switching powers and having to learn how to use them, and "She's a Man, Baby, A Man" because of the demon luring men to her in order to kill them. I know it's been a long time since Leo and Piper have had to deal with their powers being switched, but you would think they would have remembered at least some stuff. Granted, Piper had the advantage because she got to use some of Leo's powers last time, as opposed to Leo who the last time he had Piper's powers he was close to death and didn't get a chance to use them. It was so funny to see Leo have to deal with not only all of Piper's powers and how out of control those were to him, but he had all of her pregnancy symptoms. I cannot stop laughing at the line, "Are your boobs always this sore?" It was so funny to see how naturally Piper stepped into the role of whitelighter though, and how easily she was jet setting and even picking up on new languages. I love how she was talking with a panicked charge in French and then all of a sudden she was like, "Woah, did I just speak French?!" Too funny! I'm glad that through all this Piper and Leo got a chance to see how hard it was being each other for the day, and hopefully will appreciate what the other one does everyday. Whoever this little future Halliwell is going to turn out to be, it is one smart and powerful little baby. I love how when Piper was trying to blow up the Siren and the baby used flowers instead Piper was like, "Ohhh, bad baby!" Speaking of the Siren, I know she's pissed off about losing her man because he was married, but come on, way to hold a grudge for over a thousand years! I mean, seriously get over it already! That doesn't make it right for you to go all over and kill married men and their wives. Poor Cole is winding up getting the short end of the stick in every situation, because no matter what he does or says good Phoebe is not hearing any of it. We can tell that he is trying so hard and see the pain in his eyes when Phoebe looks at him with disgust, but you can't change Phoebe's mind when it's made up. I think poor Cole is just now starting to understand what Phoebe is going toward, and slowly making his way toward acceptance. But I'm very much liking this good fest he's on with trying anything in his power by doing good, and if that means saving more innocents than all for it Cole! "May the power of three set you free!"

"Happily Ever After"

Description: "An evil witch traps the Halliwell sisters in distorted versions of classic fairy tales, where Phoebe attends a ball as Cinderella and meets Prince Charming, Paige has a taste of Snow White's poisoned apple, and Piper encounters a big, bad wolf, as Little Red Riding Hood."

Did you ever think fairy tales were too unrealistic to be true? Well think again, because they became live and real at the Halliwell manor in this episode. Based on what the elders say, fairy tales are actually stories written about real life events. I thought it was ironic how Phoebe was turned into Cinderella, because it was her favorite fairy tale growing up. No wonder she thought Cole was behind the whole thing in the beginning of the episode, but really this isn't Cole's M.O. Have you noticed that every time Phoebe is trying to get rid of Cole, she keeps blaming him for every demonic attack that comes their way? I know he hurt Phoebe, but come on, isn't that a little drastic? This time I think Cole is honestly trying to be good, but Phoebe is just tired of it. She's seriously given him one too many chances and he keeps blowing it, whether it's his fault or not. Talk about paranoid, I know a magical pregnancy is new for Piper, but she's freaking about every little detail. So much to the point that Grams had to be summoned to help her figure out that she didn't need help to begin with. Speaking of summoning Grams, this baby is gaining more and more powers by the episode. First it's healing its Mommy's wounds, and now it's summoning the dead. "Corporeal none the less." Charmed reference! Time will only tell how powerful this baby is yet to become, and then he has to be born. This is not the last curve ball that's going to be thrown at Piper and Leo, so they might as well get used to it. It was great to see Grams back on the show regardless, and it was great to see her trying to form a relationship with Paige. It might have been rocky in the beginning, but it looks like now the two of them are going to be alright. Grams even got Paige to call her Grams at the end of the episode, but that's just the effect Grams has on people. I thought it was hilarious when Grams got eaten by the wolf, and then it took them so long to figure out it wasn't the real Grams. My favorite quote out of the episode is when of the Seven "little people" whispered to another, "Do you think she knows that's the wolf?" And the other "little person" said, "Naw, not our business." It was amusing to see what modern-day versions of the fairy tales looked like, but especially the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I've always wondered what Grump, Sleepy, and Dopey looked like in real life, and I guess now we know. In the end, Piper blew up the wolf from the inside when he swallowed her, she went into the storybook and vanquished the evil witch, saving Phoebe and Paige while doing so, Phoebe learned that not all guys were bad, and the new keeper of the fairytales was instated.

"A Witch's Tail"

Description: "Piper, Phoebe, and Paige come to the aid of Mylie, a mermaid-turned-human, when she shows up looking for their help, after a pact she made with an evil Sea Hag begins to go drastically wrong. Meanwhile, Phoebe attempts to divorce Cole, until he shows up claiming to want her back. Paige attempts to juggle her new position as a full fledged social worker as well as being a Charmed One. Piper must protect her unborn baby, and face her fear of the water demon. Piper, Paige, and Leo struggle to convince Phoebe, now a mermaid, to come back to her life as a Charmed One, when she decides to "swim" away from her problems with Cole. Meanwhile, Piper casts a spell to stop her panic attacks, but instead of facing her fear she supresses it, endangering herself and her baby when the Sea Hag comes after her mermaid sister, Phoebe. In order to help Phoebe, Paige takes drastic measures and enlists the aid of Cole, and his newfound demonic powers."

For a season opener, this one threw a lot of different emotions at us from love, hurt, fear, and overprotectiveness. Love played an exceptionally big amount in this episode, because it was love that Mylie needed from Craig to stay human. I don't blame the dude for freaking out, I mean it's not everyday that your girlfriend tells you she's a mermaid, and you need to tell her you love her in order for her to live. The Sea Hag only gave them 30 days, and even though it was obvious that Craig loves Mylie, he has to come to it in his own time. It was sweet that in the end Craig was able to look past how she was different, and except her for who she was, the girl he loves. The producers of the show never went into why Necron wanted immortality so bad, because he's a demon so I thought they already were immortal? I guess all demons are different in there own way, but that is interesting. I found it sad that Phoebe had to resort to becoming a mermaid to get away from Cole. You can tell she still loves him, but she doesn't want to get hurt like that again. Just because Cole isn't evil anymore, anything can happen and Phoebe's heart can't handle another blow. Like Phoebe said, "I'll always love you Cole, nothing will ever change that, but we're over." I'm glad that Cole realized in the end that he had to let her go if he loves her as much as he says, and gave her the divorce she needed to fully move on. For those who think that this isn't the end, then you're right. Stay tuned! Fear played a big role in this episode, because they were once again up against something that was very similar to the demon who killed the girls' mother. I don't think Piper would have reacted as strongly if it hadn't been for the fact that she was pregnant. It's true that Piper is pregnant now, but she doesn't want her baby to lose its mother the way the sisters lost theirs. Add to that all the hormones running through Piper's body, it's a wonder her fear didn't take over her body completely. That's where the fear spell came in, and it almost cost her life in the end, if it wasn't for future baby Halliwell having the power to heal its Mommy from the womb. My favorite quote is after Baby Halliwell heals Piper she smiles and looks up at Leo and says, "Apparently, it takes after its Daddy." So sweet! Speaking of sweet, I thought it was nice that Patty came back and talked to Piper when she was drowning. First of all, what is with Patty always saving her daughters from drowning (remember Season 1 "From Fear To Eternity?) when she saved Prue from the pool? Patty helped Piper to understand that she had a greater destiny to fulfill than she did, and that her baby will grow up with a mother. No matter dead or alive, Patty will always be there for her girls, whether it's to give a helping hand by turning the pages of the "Book of Shadows" or to write something in a baby book. :) When it comes to Leo being overprotective, I don't think he has to worry about Piper and the baby getting hurt now that they know it can heal them if anything were to happen. Maybe now, Leo will be able to let his guard down, and give Piper a little bit of breathing room. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

On To Season 5!

Season 4 was a year of very dark times for the Halliwell sisters. From the moment when Piper and Phoebe lost their big sister, to vanquishing the Source three times (one time Phoebe's husband), it has been emotionally draining. This year was a lot of growing up for the sisters, and a year where they learned to define who they really were. Phoebe found her calling as an advice columnist, and for a short stint, was Queen of the Underworld. She also found and lost true love this season, with the gain of her husband Cole, and a few short weeks later, had to vanquish him as The Source. Piper found her new status of oldest sister, and although it wasn't always easy, she learned to fully embrace it and come to appreciate all the great things she has in her life. Piper also did a great job this season of balancing her life more between demon work and personal life, and her and Leo's relationship has been better than ever before because of it. Paige, just discovering she had sisters, had the hardest job of all this season. She had to learn everything there was to being a witch, that her sisters had 3 years before her to learn. Paige, although the youngest, a lot of the time stepped up and handled things when no one else was around to. Paige I think grew the most in Season 4, because she went from a early-twenties girl who had no responsibility, to a kick butt witch who had to learn a whole new world she never even imagined existed. All in all, this season wasn't the most pleasent for the girls to live through, but they banned together as the power of three and showed the Underworld which side will always win. So what is in store for the sisters now that they have supposedly fulfilled their destiny, you may ask? Cole is back in town looking for Phoebe, will she ever take him back now that he's no longer The Source? What's going to come of Piper and Leo's new baby, and will it be safe from all the demonic attacks? Will the Underworld ever regain order and decide the Charmed Ones really need to be dead now? Will Paige ever become a full fledged whitelighter, and in the process meet someone from her geneology? You're just going to have to wait and see in Season 5! "May the power of three set you free!"

Season 4 Overview! Enjoy!

Peace, Love, and Charmed!

"Witch Way Now?"

Description: "When the Angel of Destiny offers the sisters a chance to relinquish their powers and lead normal lives as a reward for vanquishing The Source of all Evil, their decision is put on the back burner. The sisters try to avoid an FBI agent who has them under surveilance, while also dealing with Cole's calls for help, who is trapped in another realm, holding onto his love for Phoebe. Plus, Piper remarkably finds out that she is pregnant."

The sisters finally got to make the choice of a lifetime, whether to continue their destiny and saving innocents, or a chance to give up those powers and live normal magic-free lives. After all of the good that the Charmed Ones have done over the years, it's about time that someone steps up and offers to reward them for it. I wasn't surprised the slightest that they were leaning toward giving them up after the last 4 years they've had. Losing a sister, gaining and losing true love, and being flung around by demons on a daily basis, who wouldn't turn that down in a heart beat? I felt bad for Paige there for a while because she wanted to keep her powers but it was majority rules. Like Piper said, her and Phoebe had been doing this a lot longer than Paige had, and lost and put up with a lot of crap over the last four years. When the Charmed Ones started out four years ago, they had no idea how hard, life changing, heart wrenching, and physically draining being a witch was. The most they thought about was rhyming a couple of words and then shopping for some shoes. A sad quote in this episode is when Phoebe and Piper are trying to explain to Paige why they're thinking about giving up their powers and Piper says, "Paige, I can't have kids because of what we do." So sad! Speaking of problems they've had to deal with through the years, Cole is back and contacting Phoebe from another realm. The fact that there's another realm where demons go when vanquished is weird enough, but that some kind of creature is down there to devour their powers is absurd. I was surprised that Phoebe even responded to Cole's call after all he put her through, but I guess she figures it really wasn't Cole who was The Source, and it's not The Source now who's calling out to her, it's Cole. This Jackman dude has a lot of nerve tricking the Charmed Ones into believing that he was going to expose them unless they help him catch a witch "hunter", when really he wanted a witch so he could kill her, because he was the witch hunter. How weird was it that he had bugged the outside of their house? I thought it was hilarious when Phoebe went up to the attic and started blasting the music, and then Jackman jumped about a mile in his truck. Saving that witch was the best thing that could have happened to the sisters, because they got a taste of how life without their powers would be, and it wasn't easy. In the end, I was surprised by their decision to continue using magic since they were leaning so heavily on the other choice, but no matter what I stand by their decision and will continue to support them every step of the way. I love when the Angel of Destiny says, "No matter what your choice was, the outcome wouldn't have changed you and Leo's personal destiny." What a nonchalant way of hinting that Piper is indeed pregnant. I cannot tell you how loud I squeal everytime I watch this episode, because against all odds like everything else in their relationship, Piper and Leo have found a way to make it work and are now expecting a baby! This time the Angel of Destiny did the honors of closing the manor doors shut. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Womb Raider"

Description: "The Seer plans to steal Phoebe's unborn baby, so she can raise the child to become the next Source, and prevent the throne from passing on to another demon. Meanwhile, the baby begins to take over control of Phoebe's body, which proves dangerous to Paige."

Wow, I've finally made it to 100 blog posts! I can't believe this day has finally arrived, and I couldn't have picked a more perfect episode for this to occur on. Thank you to all my faithful readers for sticking with me through two very long breaks, and we are almost halfway done with this show! Now on to the episode! Have you ever wondered what the outcome would be if a Charmed One and The Source of all evil were to procreate? I never thought it would be possible let alone that Phoebe would actually be the bearer of the child. I was concerned about how Phoebe was going to survive what the baby was doing to her body, since all those "hot flashes" and stomach pains are obviously not normal or healthy. But I thought it was funny to see the girls have to deal with one of them being pregnant, since they will all one day be in that situation. I've always wanted to see exactly what the Seer was seeing in her visions, because I've always wondered what exactly excited her most about The Source's offspring. What I don't get, is why she herself wants to take on the burden of carrying and teaching the baby how to be the new Source? I get that she would obtain all kinds of incredible power, but that seems like a huge amount of work. I thought it was funny how the baby kept taking offense to things everyone was saying about Cole, and making Phoebe use powers to try and kill them. Poor Daryl is always showing up at the Halliwell manor at the wrong time, but when he was walking up the front walk and Paige came crashing out a window above him, that one takes the cake. I also thought it was hilarious when Daryl didn't know that Phoebe was pregnant and kept wondering who the baby was they were all talking about and Daryl said, "Is it invisible? Am I going to step on it?" Too funny! My favorite quote out of the whole series is when Phoebe and Paige summon Piper to that cage, and once Piper finds out that magic won't work to get them out she says, "So let me get this straight, you summoned me to a cage, where my powers don't work, so that we can all die together?!" Piper is my favorite character based solely on her sense of humor. She is always cracking me up! Speaking of Piper, I felt so bad for her when she found out that it might be near impossible for her and Leo to have kids. It's been a while since Piper has regretted being a witch, but this was one of those times where she wished maybe they didn't have to fight demons on a daily basis, since the demons throwing her around is what caused this problem in the first place. As she was on the phone with the doctor and then telling Paige what he said afterward, you could tell she was trying not to cry. Here Phoebe is carrying a demon child who she never fully wanted in the first place and can't keep in the end, and then there's Piper who wants a child so desperately and finds out she might not be able to have one. Sometimes life just is not fair! But on the plus side, the Charmed Ones vanquished the Source for the third time, count them three, and he is finally gone! Time to rejoice and bask in the glow of their accomplishments! Congrats Girls!! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

Peace, Love, and Charmed!

"Long Live The Queen"

Description: "Phoebe accepts her new role in Cole's life, but she still sets out to save an innocent after she has a premonition, and even seeks her sisters' help in protecting the man. Meanwhile, Piper's heart doesn't seem to be in it as she prepares to defend her family against any new threats."

It might have been a seemingly easy choice for Phoebe to become the Queen of the Underworld, but it's not so easy for her sisters to let go of her. I've only seen Piper lose it this bad two other times; once when Prue died and the other when Leo almost died (Season 1 Episode 21 "Love Hurts"). But Piper resorting to alcohol was a new one, because Piper might have gone almost crazy before, but she's never sunk to that level. As much as Piper was hurting though, she made a funny drunk. But I hate that she kept blaming herself for Phoebe turning evil. Phoebe made a choice to be with Cole, but Phoebe wouldn't have been evil if it hadn't been for the Seer feeding her that tonic. I didn't know it at first, but it was all thanks to the tonic that Phoebe was acting so weird at the beginning of the episode. I don't know about you guys, but it was completely strange seeing Phoebe being evil because that is so not her. Phoebe has always been so caring and passionate about everything she's done, and cares about everybody no matter if they're family or not. I was wondering how turning into the Queen could make her so evil overnight, but I'm glad that Phoebe finally realized what the Seer's true intentions were. This isn't the last we're going to see of the Seer either, because the Seer's plan might have been discovered, but that won't stop her from following through with the plan. I was glad to see though that even with the tonic Phoebe had a conscience, because just like she said, good or evil, she's never ignored a premonition. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink, just like you can make a good witch the Queen of the Underworld but you can't make her evil. I thought it was sweet that even though she was evil, she missed her sisters like she would if she weren't evil. I kind of get where Phoebe was coming from about everything not being so black and white like before, but as Piper said, "You can't save innocents and let demons live, that's just not how it works." I'm sure Phoebe wishes she could have both Cole and her sisters, but Cole being The Source kind of changes all of that. I was proud of how much Paige pulled through for the family in this episode. While the rest of them were busy turning evil, drowning themselves in booze, or frozen by the drunk, Paige was the one who was trying to save both the innocent and her sisters all at the same time. Paige may be the young and inexperienced sister, but when it really matters most, she pulls through everytime. I thought it was awful that in the end, Cole made Phoebe choose between leaving him or killing her sisters and having a family with him. Cole knows how much Phoebe loves her sisters and him, but in the end she made the choice that she thought was right. The Source (Cole) was vanquished, but this isn't the end. Remember all of the Underworld banding together to revolt? Well, that just doesn't change because The Source is dead. And for all you Cole fans out there, I'm not going to give anything away, but don't lose faith yet. I think my favorite sister moment in the entire series, even though it's really sad, is when Phoebe is hysterically crying in her room at the manor, and Piper and Paige go in there and lay on either side of her on the bed. The end scene of all of them laying there with their arms around each other is so heart wrenching but so sweet when it comes to their bond as sisters. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"We're Off To See The Wizard"

Description: "Phoebe tells Piper and Paige that she is pregnant, and that Cole is the father. Meanwhile, Piper and Paige team up with a wizard to stop the coronation of the new Source, unaware that it is Cole and Phoebe is soon to be his Queen of the Underworld."

The time has come for the truth to come out about Cole, and no time is better than at the coronation of the new Source. I still can't believe it took the sisters this much time to figure it out, and even then they didn't know that he was the new Source, they just thought he was a regular old demon. This wizard dude was a bit weird and confusing, because they never really made it clear until the very end which side he was really on. For a long time there, he seemed like he was good and was trying to steal the Grimwoir to stop The Source from taking control, but it turned out that he wanted the Grimwoir so he could kill The Source and take his powers. I thought it was sweet that at the end Cole was willing to just let the wizard have his powers, because it was better than losing Phoebe. If the Seer hadn't gotten there on time, it would have worked and him and Phoebe could go on to live a long and happy life together. I still can't believe that Phoebe agreed to be the new Queen of the Underworld! The first time I saw this episode I was shocked, and I'm sure I wasn't the only one. Phoebe was freaking out when she first found out Cole was evil, and then the Seer says a few choice words to her and then all of a sudden she's game. I have a feeling that the Seer did something else to Phoebe to get her to agree, or maybe she was playing on Phoebe's emotions with being pregnant and wanting to have a normal life with the man she loves. No one was more shocked to see Phoebe turn evil than her sisters though. I almost broke down in tears right then and there at the look of desperation on Piper's face when Phoebe disappeared. Less than a year after losing one sister, now she's in danger of losing another, this time to evil. For all you people who think that Phoebe won't be able to do it and that it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks, don't worry you won't be disappointed. You're right, but I'm going to leave the details up to your imagination and another episode. The Seer was right about one thing though, the human half inside of Cole is becoming stronger and stronger, to the point where it's in danger of taking over his demonic half. It shows everytime he goes to a demon for punishing them for hurting Phoebe, or when he was buying things for the new baby. How sweet! He told his assistant that he was just doing it to keep up appearances, but as his assistant said, "Phoebe's not even here." My favorite quote in this whole episode is after Phoebe tells Cole that she's pregnant and then leaves, he smiles and says, "I'm going to be a daddy?" Too cute! That's the one strand of hope I can hold onto that maybe Phoebe and Cole will find a way to make it work, but you guys are just going to have to wait and see! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Bite Me"

Description: "A vampire queen tries to dethrone Cole as ruler of the Underworld and attempts to turn Paige against her sisters. Meanwhile, Phoebe begins to feel under the weather."

The inevitable has happened, the baby blues has hit the Halliwell sisters, some with disappointment and some with relief. I hinted this a little while ago, but Piper was right about how all the tossing around they get from the demons is not condusive to having babies. This will pose a problem to Piper in the very near future. Phoebe on the other hand knows she wants kids sometime down the road, but was very relieved when the initial test came out negative. Her and Cole haven't been married long, but the news from the doctor came at the end of the episode that Phoebe is indeed pregnant whether she's ready or not. I felt bad for Piper in this episode, because her and Leo have been trying and anticipating having a child, and unfortunately the same luck isn't being bestowed on her that it is on Phoebe. I thought it was sweet that all Piper wanted to do was talk to her sister about what was going on, but then again I wish Piper would open up more to Paige. She has fully accepted Paige quite awhile ago, but it's going to take a while for her to get the same level of relationship with her that she has with Phoebe. It was touching to see that Piper and Paige did get that little sister scene in this episode though, and you can tell Paige really cares about her big sister. Piper may seem a little down trodden right now, but she won't have to wait long for it to be her time to bask. I'm trying not to give too much away, but there's a little hint for you guys. How cool was it to see Paige turn into a vampire? To quote Piper, "You aren't truly a Halliwell until you've gone demonic on your sisters at least twice." Paige made quite a cool looking vampire, and red is definitely her color. I found it funny how attached the queen seemed to be to all her servants, but especially Paige for some reason. How cool was it also to see Paige and Phoebe go into hand to hand combat? I didn't know Paige could fight like that, but I guess there's a first time for everything. Okay, something's about to give with the Phoebe and Cole situation. If he is so worried about the sisters catching on to him, he's got to stop being so obvious. Before Cole became the Source, Phoebe would literally have to beg him to stay behind, and now he not only wants to stay behind but wants Phoebe to stay with him. He's getting so obvious now that even Piper, who has always been the one to stand up for him, is starting to get suspicious. I promise it won't be long now guys, so just be patient for a little longer, cause as they say, "All the shits about to hit the fan!" "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Saving Private Leo"

Description: "When two ghosts from Leo's past return to seek revenge, Leo faces his demons by submitting, causing Piper's life to be threatened, leaving Paige to deal with the situation. Meanwhile, Cole tries to convince Phoebe that they need a home of their own."

This episode was a path of acceptance and healing for Leo, especially since he was secretly holding onto so much regret and remorse about the day that he died. I don't know about you guys, but I found it extremely heart wrenching to see Leo break down like that about Rick and Nathan. We've only seen him break down like that once before, and that was when Piper was dead for that short period of time in "All Hell Breaks Loose." I feel bad for Nathan and Rick and I understand why they're so upset at Leo, but to hold a grudge for that long and to kill innocent people in the process is just wrong. I feel like the producers left a lot of holes in Leo's past the last 3 years, and now in this episode all those unanswered questions are finally being answered. They briefly mentioned before that Leo had a medal of honor in the same episode that Piper found out he was married before, but to actually see at the reunion first hand all the people he died saving is amazing. I think it was very life changing for Leo himself to see all the people he saved so long ago, living full and productive lives because of him. Leo definitely deserved to become a whitelighter, whether Rick and Nathan think so or not. One big question I have about Nathan and Rick is, how come they know so much about the supernatural world? I mean, they may be ghosts and all, but how did they know about whitelighters and witches, without anybody seemingly telling them? That's one quesion though that will unfortunately go unanswered. So I'm kind of disappointed with Phoebe in this episode, because I believe she was being quite selfish. I love Phoebe as much as the next person, but I distinctly remember her freaking out when Piper was broaching the subject of moving out of the manor only a year ago, and now she's getting all bent out of shape that her sisters don't want her to move out of the manor. I understand that it can get a bit crazy in the house sometimes, but shouldn't she be used to it by now? Ever since she got the job, she's been a bit on the edge, and I hope that changes soon. So it looks like her and Cole will be living in that apartment where his firm held the party. Now that they've moved out of the manor, I have a feeling that this situation with The Source in Cole's body is about to come to a head. My favorite quote of this episode is at the end when Leo and Piper are at the reunion and everybody is crowded around Leo saying how thankful they are for his "grandfather", and Piper is standing off to the side watching when some woman approaches her and asks, "Who's he?" And Piper says, "My hero." Leo truly is everybody's hero in more than one way. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"The Fifth Halliwell"

Description: "Amongst newlyweds, Phoebe and Cole and already-married Leo and Piper, Paige becomes like a fifth-wheel, but she continues her suspicions about Cole. Meanwhile, The Source plots to impregnate Phoebe with his evil spawn."

The seed of suspicion has begun to be laid, and this time it's Paige who's questioning what Cole is really doing. You have to admit though, all those elaborate gifts, the new job, the shiny car, I'm surprised Paige was the only one to get suspicious. Paige never trusted Cole to begin with, so I guess that has something to do with it. When you consider someone part of your family, you don't automatically blame them for everything. The Seer and The Source's plan is in full swing though, because Phoebe ate the chocolate. I'm not sure if the chocolate was supposed to get her pregnant, make her in the mood to have sex, or a little of both. I thought it was funny that once her and Piper had the chocolate though, they were all over their lovers like a cat in heat. Who would have thought Piper would be the person to have sex in P3? I thought it was hilarious when Leo and Piper were having sex and then Phoebe called in the middle of it to ask Piper's advice. I don't understand why Piper answered the phone to begin with, if I was her I would have left it. My favorite quote in this episode is when Phoebe is on the phone with Piper and realizes there's something going on and goes, "Piper, whatcha doing?" And Piper laughs and says, "Taking my own advice!" and hangs up the phone. Phoebe drawing her own conclusions says, "Eww!" Too funny! Just when Phoebe was wondering whether she should get a job this advice column jumped out of nowhere. Phoebe being the person that she is always wanting to help other people, I believe she's going to be perfect for the job. Psychology degree aside, Phoebe has always been in tune with other peoples' feelings and emotions and always gives great advice. I love how proud of herself she was at the end when Elise liked her article. Speaking of Elise, how many people with awesome memory recognize her? Rebecca Balding is not playing the same character, but the same actress portrayed Aviva's aunt in Season 1 (remember "The Fourth Sister?). Don't worry, this will not be the last time we hear about this new job of Phoebe's, and unlike all the other jobs Phoebe has tried to hold down this one will last for a long time. In the end, Karen's life was saved and she returned the unwanted power, Phoebe got a new job, and Paige was able to be saved from some "scared to death" power broker's misplaced power. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"Marry-Go-Round"

Description: "As Phoebe prepares for her wedding day, she is completely unaware that The Source has taken over Cole's body, a plot that will likely ruin the big event. Meanwhile, when the Seer tells The Source that if he can marry Phoebe in the "dark way", it will insure that their future son will be the most powerful, evil being ever."

Wedding bells are ringing once again, but this time it's Phoebe who's walking down the aisle. Maybe in a perfect world, but in the lives of the Halliwells, nothing ever goes of without a hitch. I feel so bad for Phoebe, because all she wants is to marry the love of her life, and that can't happen normally because the love of her life is no longer on the side of good. The only faith I can keep holding on to, is the fact that it's no longer Cole in that body, that it's The Source. The real human Cole has no control over anything The Source does, because The Source is too powerful and took him over. Why is it that everytime evil wants to get to the sisters, they always turn the sisters against each other? I get that their bond as sisters is what makes them so powerful, but that's just heartless. I guess demons are called evil for a reason though. Just like Piper, Phoebe makes a beautiful bride, and although it didn't go as planned, her and Cole did end up married at the end of the episode. Every idea that the Seer is telling The Source to do is to benefit her in the long run. This child that she says is going to be the most powerful source of evil, she's secretly planning to take it and raise it herself. The Source and the girls just don't know it yet, but the Seer is going to cause a lot more problems in the near future. Right now, the girls are just classifying her as a minor annoyance. I was surprised that no one was suspicious of the "wedding" at the end of the episode. Even Leo who is so well versed on all topics of magic, didn't realize that there was something fishy with the chapel. I mean, how good of an omen can a chapel in a mosaleum be to begin with, but add to that the creepy looking minister. If I was Phoebe, I would have been like "Hell no, you people are crazy if you think I'm getting married in there!" I thought it was hilarious when they were in the church trying to have the original wedding, and everybody but the bride and groom went out to fight the Lazarus demon. My favorite part was in the middle of the wedding music you can hear Piper over it yell, "You son of a bitch!" Too funny! It was also great to see Phoebe and Paige have to be invisible. The way the special effects worked, you couldn't quite see them, but you could tell where they were by things they touched or where they sat down. All in all, Happy Wedding Day Miss Phoebe! Enjoy it while you can, because a lot of crap is about to get thrown the sisters' way. "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

"The Three Faces Of Phoebe"

Description: "Phoebe develops a case of cold feet over marrying Cole, and casts a spell which brings a young innocent Phoebe and an old cynical Phoebe to the Manor, to help her make a decision. Meanwhile, while Cole is horrified to find that The Source is now taking over his entire being, The Source's chief rival, who believes The Source is dead, is convinced by the Seer to kill the Charmed Ones in order to earn the allegiance of the entire underworld."

Did you ever wonder how Phoebe was going to look in her golden years? Or maybe even how she looked when she was a kid? Well this episode answered those inquiries, and no surprise Phoebe is funny and spunky at any age. It was awesome to see how Phoebe was when she was a little girl, and what things she did that were cute and annoying. It was funny to see present-Piper interacting with past-Phoebe. I wonder if Piper had any more patience for her back then, than she does now. I loved when Phoebe was explaining to her past self what was going on, and then when she was pointing out who was who, little Phoebe's eyes just kept getting bigger and bigger. Phoebe was a cute child to say the least, and she had a hefty imagination. It was cute to see how little Phoebe reacted to Cole, and to find out that Cinderella is Phoebe's favorite fairytale is awesome. Now geriatric Phoebe is just plain mean, and I wonder what it took to get her to that stage. Future Phoebe kept hinting about what happened between her and Cole, but is that the sole reason she's so grumpy? Speaking of Cole, I feel so bad for him because he never asked to be made into The Source, and yet he has to live with the consequences. No matter what happened between future Phoebe and Cole, there must not be so many hard feelings if she was willing to save him from death in the end. She also said that she ended up not marrying Cole in her lifetime, but I wonder if she did that before or after she found out he was The Source. In the end, I guess future Phoebe decided it was best to see how the marriage would have played out, and gave present Phoebe her blessing to marry Cole. I agree with how Cole being The Source is not his fault, but I don't see why he just won't come clean and tell Phoebe. If he explained how the Seer set him up, I'm sure Phoebe would understand and the sisters could find a way to help. But now that Cole's told Phoebe he's not hiding anything from her, he's just setting himself up for trouble. The Seer also seems to be hiding some secret motive up her sleeve. She talks about how Cole turning into The Source will help them to do great things together, but then she goes behind his back and sends demons after the Charmed Ones. Who knows, you guys will just have to wait and see! "May the power of three set you free!" Keep reading and watching!

Peace, Love, and Charmed!
