Research and remembering the past is KEY in any show. Kern and the monkey's forgot what that meant. We do our best to fill in continuity and make things as real as we can.
Glad you like it and good luck on your exam!

Hey, I understand what you mean. I'm doing the same with my spin off idea.
I also want to say, which I forgot before, that the scene with Victor finding out about Paige was perfect. We never really saw how he acted around Paige at first, he just seemed to take it like it didn't bother him and I'm glad to see the reaction that I would have expected from him.
Great work, I'll read the rest very soon.

YES!!!!!! We all totally thought that same thing. He seemed to just accept it, and we know Victor would never just accept that.

You're so right, Lexi. I was in to Charmed more than ever when season four rolled around, because the idea of a long lost sister, between Patty and Sam no less, had me on pins and needles. I can remember telling my mom on multiple occasions how, "They should have an episode with Victor, because I bet the reaction would be amazing!" And then what happened? It was like, "Oh, hi, you just replaced my first born child who was brutally killed by the magic I couldn't handle, and you're the daughter of the man who ruined my marriage, but aw hell, I'll just accept you as one of my own!"  It was completely unrealistic, and a huge let down! And what you said about research, I'm glad you noticed that.  That's so true! Just because it's fantasy doesn't mean it doesn't need to be grounded with realism. Without that, there's no way for people to connect. Plus, it ties directly in with continuity, because how can it be real when the rules of the world are constantly contradicting themselves? (And I don't mean how "truths" can change in real life, but for example, was Paige born in 1977 or 1975...the year Phoebe was born?) It just drives me crazy how many obvious mistakes were made, simply because nobody wanted to do their homework. And I know that you can't be perfect, but you can make an honest effort, which is what C:RR strives to do. |

I just finished reading season 4 and all I can really say it WOW!
The way you ended it was amazing, I really wondered how you were going to get around having to kill one of the Charmed Ones, when the whole point of your virtual series is to keep all four of them alive. The whole thing has been amazing and the ending was brilliant, definitely worth reading.
I can't wait to get started on Season 5, I'd love to see where you're going to take all their destinies, since I'm guessing Piper and Leo will have a whole destiny of their own while the Power of Three carry on with theirs.
Well, there's notmuch more I can say now, except you are all amazing writers and I hope you keep continuing this, well at least up until either life takes you on a different path or you feel it needs to come to an end (which right now I hope it doesn't come to that).

Hey, Lexi! Glad you finished Season 4 and enjoyed it. The way out of the trap was very interesting. Many people had a problem with Piper always wanting a real life, so here we go. Cannot wait to see what you think about S5. |

Well I just finished Season4, and I just wanted to give all of you props. It was a very good season and the finale was very cleaver! It was very final destination with death coming to claim a sister over the years to make room for another.

I have just read Charmed by Four Part one and it is brilliant, brilliant characterizations and interactions between the characters, also good continuation with the Eames, Whitelighter powers, Piper's freezing powers rememberence as the sisters would be unlikely to forget that situation.

Welcome, charmdever! I'm glad we've got a new member and new reader to the series. Beauty of a virtual series is that we've always got reruns.  I'm very glad that you see that the pilot is in tune with CHARMED. |

Just read Charmed by four parts two, three and four and they work really well together, brilliant storyline, great characterizations and interactions.

It was completely unrealistic, and a huge let down!
