I will just state now that throughout most of Act Five and all of Act Six, I cried like a bloody baby. By far the saddest moment of the whole series, wasn't it?
I just hope you guys had similar reactions. But regardless, well done Camillie. The finished article was beautiful!

Final episode of Season Six? I'll leave reviews for 6x20, 6x21 and 6x22 when I have some spare time, but there are a few thing I wanted to say I disliked the final verdict. I guess I got attached to little Sparky. *shoulder shrug* Also, I don't think Phoebe or Piper (*especially* Piper) would be so quick to take the "right" option if it were their child. Side Note: In recent episodes I have, personally, started to like Piper less and less -- more on that later. Lilith is a bitch. Probably why I've started to love her recently. Again, more on that later. Oh, and I really hate the original future/course of events (though, it isn't really the original as Phoebe was still there -- she should be subjected to the same fate as Drea, IMO. Not a fan of how that was overlooked), it seemed too 7th Heaven-happy family-perfect minus the whole Christian vibe. JMO. As I said above, I'll leave three proper reviews soon, these were just the things which stood out in to me the last episode. Also, more indepth reasonings/justifications will be provided upon request.

It wasn't overlooked. Destiny made an allowance to spare Phoebe (or any of the sisters) in exchange for Piper leaving the Power of Four. They wouldn't change that, it's not massively effected the lives of anyone but those that wanted the change to happen.
Drea however was a major flaw in the grand design, a baby that never should of existed that then went onto destroy the world as we know it! Those on trial were the cause of this.
And while you feel Piper and Phoebe wouldn't of sacrificed their kids, your probably right but Drea isn't their daughter! Prue is in the same position but her decision shows how different and "selfless" (or as selfless as someone can be) she really is. She's one of a kind!
Besides, the story isn't complete just yet. The decision hasn't been made.

I disliked the final verdict. I guess I got attached to little Sparky. *shoulder shrug* Also, I don't think Phoebe or Piper (* especially* Piper) would be so quick to take the "right" option if it were their child. There hasn't been a final verdict yet, hence the reason Prue was asking what they were going to do with Drea and the fates of Melinda Warren/Penny/Patty/Andy are still unknown. And I completely agree with you that if Piper had been in this situation with Melinda or Chris (like Prue accused), she wouldn't have agreed so easily. Lilith is a bitch. Probably why I've started to love her recently. Again, more on that later. That she is. Oh, and I really hate the original future/course of events (though, it isn't really the original as Phoebe was still there -- she should be subjected to the same fate as Drea, IMO. Not a fan of how that was overlooked), it seemed too 7th Heaven-happy family-perfect minus the whole Christian vibe. JMO. That was the original course of events post-Piper's deal with Destiny. Destiny agreed to save Phoebe at the expense of Piper's Charmed powers, which changed their future, but this was not their course of destiny pre-"Destiny Takes A Halliwell."

My review for 6x22: "Reset Reality Check" First off I would love to thank you for putting in that cliffhanger and now I know that there WILL be a Season Seven of C:RR!! Now onto the review!
Okay so, the Akashic Records... to be honest I've never heard of them before, but I must admit the name has a roll of the tongue to that's cool. Um...to be honest I don't know how I feel about the teaser. I love how Bianca stepped up and suggested the re write Drea's destiny part...but really the teaser made my head spin in circles which isn't a bad thing at all...just confusing I guess?
Now I remember the episode where you got the "sisters seeing the future" thing. I believe it was when Chris went to the Alchemist in the original Season Six and they got sucked in the Alt. Realities. Love it! Um... *scuffs the ground with my foot* There's kinda something I wanna add.. Paige and... Glenn? Of all people to be married to in a future it had to be Glenn...I mean I know Camille loves Glenn and Paige together and all, but I really don't think they work well together and that is just my opinion.
Phoebe and Jason... *looks around* I have to admit they're soooo better than Phoebe and Coop in the Season That Should Have Never Existed, but I really don't like Phoebe and Jason together for some reason. It's just a weird feeling I get and I think Phoebe would deserve better than him.
Prue and Mitch... for some reason I can't see them together. I don't know why, but I just can't. I just really just don't think Mitch and Prue matches together.... which I'm coming to the conclusion that this may NOT be the series finale episode... which I hope it's NOT! I don't know, I just can't see Paige/Glenn and Prue/Mitch together.
Now for Piper and Leo's future scenes thing. I LOVE the sibling rivalry thing! And what other siblings rivalry can there be from magical siblings? I found the use of magic amusing! And Piper closing P3... I don't know how I feel about this. I mean, P3's been a part of Charmed for two Charmed years, and four C:RR years... I mean P3 stands for the Power of Three... Prue, Piper, Phoebe and than later Prue, Phoebe, Paige. It's SYMBOLIC! Now unless Piper names her restaurant P3 or something like that...but still in my P.O.V. P3 alone means A LOT to Charmed AND Charmed: Reset Reality Frankly what it comes down to is that Piper giving up P3 is a wrong.
Okay so the Trial goes on right? And there goes Fakealie yapping on bragging how she knows body language blah blah blah. Ugh.
Okay so Bianca not wanting Drea to live BUT will accept it because she loves Chris.... I LOVE IT!!!! I love this couple sooo freaking much and Bianca sacrifices a lot!! LOVE HER!!!
"BIANCA: I’d rather take the risk of losing him to a safe world than losing him to no world at all."
I think that pretty much sums it all up on how much Bianca loves Chris, doesn't it? I sooo love Chris and Bianca!!!
Blah, I’m getting irritated with Lillith myself here. She’s a really good antagonist and all, but she’s just so dang annoying! Okay so when the hologram with Prue, “Matt” and Coop popped up… I found it amusing really. Especially when he asked them why they weren’t a couple and they both answered the same thing at the same time. Of course they’d do that since they’ve known each other practically all their lives!
I know I haven’t been commenting on the girls’ crappy futures because that’s exactly what I think of them. Crappy. Well, I loved Piper and Leo’s future, but as Phoebe/Jason and Prue/Mitch and Paige/Glenn dragged on it totally made me bored. I have expressed my opinions on these couples and as I said before, I seriously cannot see them together.
And now after all the visions of losing innocents and stuff, Phoebe changes her opinions and stuff about Drea. Wowness. And I totally expected Prue to act the way she did towards Phoebe. This started to make me feel really bad for Prue because Piper and Paige joined Phoebe’s bandwagon. To be honest, I’m on Prue’s side here. I do not want to see Drea vanish…Probably because I have a thing for the evil beings(Minus Lillith) and I love seeing Drea’s evil side! Hopefully in Season Seven Drea returns(even if she’s turned back to good in the TRUE C:RR future) So yeah I’m disappointed in Phoebe, Piper, and Paige. If they witnessed Prue going suicidal when Drea got kidnapped, do they realize what’ll happen when they get back to San Francisco? Hmm all answers that should be answered in Season Seven… which makes me wonder.
It’s Winter, and usually shows premiere in Fall. So does that mean we’ll have to wait for C:RR in the Fall of 2010?

Okay so, the Akashic Records... to be honest I've never heard of them before, but I must admit the name has a roll of the tongue to that's cool. They were the records that Eric was searching for in "They're Everywhere," which The Collectors wanted because: Um... *scuffs the ground with my foot* There's kinda something I wanna add.. Paige and... Glenn? Of all people to be married to in a future it had to be Glenn...I mean I know Camille loves Glenn and Paige together and all, but I really don't think they work well together and that is just my opinion. lol They weren't married. (Neither were Phoebe and Jason.) But they were dating and touring the world together. The kids just call him "Uncle Glenn" because he's their aunt's boyfriend and like an uncle figure, similar to how Darryl is "Uncle Darryl." which I'm coming to the conclusion that this may NOT be the series finale episode... which I hope it's NOT! It's not the series finale. Now for Piper and Leo's future scenes thing. I LOVE the sibling rivalry thing! And what other siblings rivalry can there be from magical siblings? I found the use of magic amusing! And Piper closing P3... I don't know how I feel about this. I mean, P3's been a part of Charmed for two Charmed years, and four C:RR years... I mean P3 stands for the Power of Three... Prue, Piper, Phoebe and than later Prue, Phoebe, Paige. It's SYMBOLIC! Now unless Piper names her restaurant P3 or something like that...but still in my P.O.V. P3 alone means A LOT to Charmed AND Charmed: Reset Reality Frankly what it comes down to is that Piper giving up P3 is a wrong. I completely agree. lol

Firstly thanks for both detailed reviews, Chris. Infact, thankyou to everyone for their reviews AND support since our return. It's been really encouraging to know that you guys are still here.
But in a way, that's kind of the point. While we didn't intend to bore you, afterall I always liked getting a little insight into how peoples lives could of been (probably why I like FlashForward!). But the lives were meant to be a kind of a bad thing, we were meant to like them. The comment earlier about it being like 7th Heaven, that's just it, those futures weren't CRR, they weren't Charmed. Things were too perfect...which is exactly why I hate Forever Charmed!!!
Again kind of the point. Your meant to side with Prue, after investing so much time in Drea, Mandy and Prue, were only going to take it all away. Your meant to be angry and disappointed, that's a good thing, in a way that tells us you are enjoying the series, the season and the episode. The sisters are standing on the side of morality etc...us humans don't understand that, we care about ourselves and those dear to us, we should be shocked if people are willing to sacrifice their family for ifs, buts and maybes.
If you ever watched Torchwood, you'd see that Captain Jack recently had to go through the same kind of problem that the sisters are being faced with. He practially murdered his own grandson to save the greater good.

Enjoyed the last two episodes. Everyone else basically conveyed the same feelings I had about the season finale. Hated the possible "future" and of course Prue/Mitch (never were into them).
Cant wait to see what the final decision will be about Andrea. While I love the charecter, part of me wants her to get erased just so we dont go with the usual "they win" route and part of me wants her to stay. But even if she does vanish, I doubt that would be the last we would see of the charecter.
And if Melinda and co. are found guilty, the only real punishment I can see for them would be either reincarnation or no reincarnation ever and them not being able to intervene with TCOs life anymore thus no more being summoned or any of that.

You guys did amazing with the last half of season six. You guys were astounding and really blew my socks off. I can't wait for the season finale.
I know you guys have been planning a seventh season and I was wondering if you would be continuing with a eigth season as well?*crosses fingers*

Have you read all the episodes? That's it for Season 6. Let's focus on S7 before we think about more. Glad you enjoy it!

The season didn't close with the front door of the Halliwell Manor being shut by magic! *gasp* Or have you all not been following that "tradition" thus far? I can't remember. Reguardless, the last half of this season was rather good. Nice job.

they have twin swords. In season 4 it was the angel of destiny that closed the doors and then the queen for season 5 but season 6 is the only one without it so far.
