Charmed (1998) rewatch but only seasons 1-3 and then treating the season 4 premiere as an open-ended finale 🤷🏻♀️
#charmed#charmed 1998#charmed wb#i remember what comes next all too well#honestly I am sorry to miss out on some of the phoebe/cole scenes of early s4 when they were still fun#but i don't think i can take the s4 plotlines again let alone the reminder of s5 looming#going back as an adult is fascinating though#1 - so much of the fashion is back in#season one especially#also wow preteen/early teen me was really oblivious to fashion though i did wind up thinking leather pants = cool from what i absorbed then#2 - i can absolutely see the change from the original showrunner and really wish i knew what constance m burge intended next#3 - the inconsistencies. the inconsistencies#not just the mythology they were making up on the fly#(how long are you a ghost v moving on to next life since past lives are a thing but also visitors from the afterlife etc etc)#but the timeline#how old was phoebe when victor left (thank god they recast victor absolute glow-up)#why did leo have a past life in the 20s when he should have been already growing up#cole refers to 'mornings waking up next to you' about his ADA apartment when it's very pointed that he & phoebe only hook up there once#4- fascinating how sex is treated in the early seasons v the latter#(it went over my head back in the day but) they very much make clear which boyfriends they're sleeping with v which they *aren't*#(i.e. they spell out that prue only sleeps with andy once & never with jack & that piper never sleeps with Josh etc)#5 - biggest mistake the reboot made was doing the half-sister storyline in episode 1#it gave them no wiggle room when a sister DID leave the show but#more importantly you lose the original grew-up-together-push-each-others-buttons dynamic that is so good#not many siblings shows on that level (supernatural is the only comparison coming to mind)#6 - I'm so Team Cole still#talk about dropping the ball on character - his half-demon backstory motivated by saving his father's soul is great actually AND DROPPED#still about phoebe/cole but the prue and cole dynamic makes more sense knowing they were dating IRL#and shoehorning in paige out of the blue distrusting cole mid s4 as replacement for that dynamic just will never work for me#anyway as my sister is now my roommate in the old house we rent Charmed (early seasons) hits different and holds up better than i expected!
