Yep, without talking about it.
We've really dealth with Piper's "miscarriage" and now we've got this topic raised. I like that, myself.

Yeah, that's something I don't think Charmed would touch on. Except for Phoebe's evil spawn magically going into the Seer and then vanguished. That was kinda like a magical abortion created by the writers to get rid of that storyline. Which I always despised. And not even because I'm pro-Phoebe/Cole or my personal political views about abortion, but simply because they wrote it off as "baby + Source's powers = evil baby," when everything before and after that episode has said that no, powers and babies are not born good or evil, it's how you are raised and choose to use them. Phoebe and Cole's baby wasn't given a chance. Plus, The Seer had been giving it evil tonic! That's such an obvious indicator that the baby wasn't evil on its own, but had to be coaxed into evil! Honestly, it didn't have to be vanquished, and I think that was a terrible way to deal with that storyline. I would have rather that the baby had died in a way that made Phoebe mourn, because it was an innocent life caught in a terrible good v.s. evil tug-of-war, because that's really what happened. I will never buy into the garbage about it being inherently evil from conception. |

Exactly! After it happened Phoebe basically said, "No big deal, the baby was evil and was never really mine". I think that's what pissed me off the most. That was just horrible.

Yeah, I never liked the idea that the baby was The Source and The Seer's either. Cole may have had The Source's powers, and he may have been possessed by The Source, but biologically, that child was Cole and Phoebe's, who happened to get the powers that had been absorbed into Cole. And, it was concieved out of love. Gah, just thinking about that storyline makes me so mad! It was such a petty, cop out way to handle it.  |

That's Brad Kern in a nutshell. A petty cop out!

Good episode, the ending was the best part. While im not a big fan of Prue being pregnant, im interested to see where this leads and how it changes things.

This storyline could be really interesting, since Matt is from the future, having a child in the present must have some big repercussions. The Elders probably wouldnt be to happy, anyone in the future might not be either. This could make the end of the season and beginning of Season6 very interesting and change things up a little.

this weeks episode was great! espically the scenes with Prue and Patty, and its also a nice spin on the 3 Faces of Phoebe spell.

I loved this episode. I have a couple of comments: 1. Kern? Seriously? LOL. I didn't know her monkey was a crack monkey. 2. Loved the interaction between Prue and Past Patty. It was also cool to have a brief appearance of Patience and mentioning of Pearl and Phoebe. You gotta love the flapper cousins. 3. Piper ran into the mirrors four times...lol. Can't say I haven't done that. I also loved the little "Uncle Cole" moment. As a Cole fan I love how he is slowly becoming apart of the family  The carnival parts were really interesting. It's good to see them having fun and Phoebe saving that girl was awesome. Then you have Paige dealing with the gremlins. At first I thought it may have been Chris messing around with his Aunt Paige but you guys had me fooled. Overall I loved it! Can't wait to see what happens next. And I think Prue is making the right decision  |

3. Piper ran into the mirrors four times...lol. Can't say I haven't done that. *raises hand* I actually created that scene based off a similar experience I had when my cousin and I went to the carnival and decided to hit (no pun intended) the House of Mirrors. I was so surprised, because usually they are stupidly easy to get out of, but that one time, I just kept bumping into things. (It was actually kind of fun, since it was a challenge for a change...even if I did feel kind of stupid for getting lost right at the beginning.  ) lol Anyway, I'm glad you liked that (I could just see Piper doing that and then Leo playfully making fun of her for it), and even better, I think it's awesome that you could relate, becuase I know for me, if I can relate a fictional event to something I've done in real life, it always makes things seem a little more real for me, so that's cool. And on a side note, I'm really glad you enjoyed the Cole moment. *sigh* Cole would've made a wicked awesome uncle. It's too bad he didn't get a chance during Charmed's run. |

I knew one of you guys had experienced something like that. lol. My expeience is when I decided to run through the house of mirrors. That was pretty fun. LOL. And I agree, it does make it more real for the reader...and funnier. |
