how would you rank the seasons from least to most favourite?
alright okay right off the bat worst season season 7. for starters i think this season has no staying power i mean like since iāve been running this blog 4 so long now my knowledge of charmed is encyclopedic and insanely vast more than like it ever need be but for the longest time. i could not remember season 7. like wtf even happened there?? evidently leo became human??? cole returned? the avatars??? like all of it was just. itās not even necessarily forgettable itās just i straight up could not remember it for the longest time. and iāve said it before the concept of utopia was way to advanced for a show like charmed to tackle i am not watching charmed for moral philosophy i am watching bc i love these girls ā„ hee hee hoo hoo magic adventure āØ tho if i am to offer a single comment on utopia: itās awfully rich for a show to go on about destiny and fate and then take a stand against utopia in the name of free will. but w/e. i donāt like leo in the avatars i donāt like his dynamic with piper in this season i donāt like whatever phoebeās doing this season thereās like leslie?? maybe thereās someone else? boring & flavorless they should have been setting up her endgame instead of puttering around. and kyle. zoo wee mama. could have been a great antihero. morally gray. duplicitous. self serving. but no. they gave him all those traits and called him hero/love interest. s7 left a lot to be desired out of the characters and their relationships also gave us phat Lās such as the charmed ones are werewolves donāt worry about it and feminism peaked with naked women. shout out to zankou: demon, dilf, dub & the noir episode.
you know what? fuck it iāll say it second worse season 5Ā genuinely fuck season five. this is probably a Very Specific beef 2 me But. i hate what they did to the charmed universe. this was the season that marked the transition of charmed from supernatural drama to campy soap which like. i love camp! i do! but fr. fuck this season and what it did to the worldbuilding. the early season have Such A Vibe to them man with warlocks and witches and just a couple niche monsters from assorted lore that the show took and made their own. season five opens with mermaids goes directly into fairytales then gives us superheros whatever the fuck was going on in that mummy episode the sandman leprechauns and nymphs. and i hate it for that. it takes away from this urban fantasy things that go bump in the night what lurks in the shadows of the back alleys of san francisco in favor of the ugliest cinderella dress ever put to television and an onslaught of horrible irish accents for a full episode. other issues with season five: coleās still here? why? they donāt know and neither will you! weāre not redeeming him! phoebeās not getting back together with him! yes he died we just refuse to let him go! the cherry on top of course being a cole-centric 100th episode. shout out to. hmm. lemme think about what i actually liked about this season. i like jason dean as a love interest i donāt remember what he did in s5 but i know he was there. the season finale iāve talked about how stupid & shitty it was but idc i still love that episode and then shout out to bacarra the only original villain this season that was a proper serve. the crone gets second place.
next on this come on we all saw it coming season 8. itās a bad season! and i get bts there was a whole lot happening budget cuts missing actor etc. but it goes beyond that. it was a bad season. billie and christie were bad. and iāve said this before but billie in herself is not an inherently bad character. she was just the literal worst for the show. she was a dollar store buffy blonde confident cocky skilled and ready 2 fight evil But. we are not following her like we followed buffy we are following her mentors. itās like if we had a show called giles that aired for seven seasons And Then buffy showed up. billie was insanely irritating to watch from our perspective and in general wasnāt like. well written. attempts to humanize her / give her more depth often fell flat. and then christy. oh nelly. oh my god. barely a character. not well acted but hey it would have been a miracle if she was. negatives include dumain who was a mess omg bringing back the triad bringing back the source billie & christy obvi and also involving homeland security. which is season 7ā²s fault which is why itās the worst. dubs on the other hand include both coop and henry i really liked them the shoehorned love interests werenāt great but i like their characters i though the way the got rid of leo to save on the budget was really creative and gave us a great piper episode and of course the sugary sweet finale i love it i do what can i say.
yet another controversial choice aptly coming in fourth is season 4. i respect what season 4 set out to do. i think it was a good idea. long form narratives, keeping a darker tone, focusing on character-driven drama and growth. too bad it fucking failed miserably at all of this. cole as the source and phoebe as the queen of hell was just so so botched. they had a very unique opportunity following the death of prue to explore these characters and what it means to them to be charmed, to be witches. they saved the world but the cost is insanely high. theyāve lost an older sister. theyāve gained a new sister. how do you even begin to cope with all this? episodes such as hell hath no fury and brain drain fuck so hard because they work with exactly that. had the whole season been like those episode season four would sit at number one with flying colors absolutely no competition. but alas. we canāt have nice things. the show got so bogged down with phoebe & cole, in a way that was just so, so messy. for starters, whether you loved cole or hated him before, we can all agree source!cole sucked. he was such a strong 180 from what we had seen that the show had to make the source some type of possession to justify half the shit they were trying to pull. and then to pit phoebe and paige against one another over a man was just. disgusting. and the ending of course felt rushed because it was! they wrapped up that entire issue in a nice little bow much faster than they reasonably should have been able to. it could have been a great season. it was definitely not. shout out to the seer an iconic mastermind on barbas levels, as previously stated brain drain and hell hath no fury Specific shout out to piperās scene at prueās grave shout out to paige as a character i like what they did with her and um. yeah thatās it.
okay weāre exiting the shit tier in favorite of the good tier welcome to the upper half. kicking us off is season 6. season 6 did what season 4 could not in that it gave us a long form plot that still left plenty of room for like. normal demon of the week episodes. i love phoebe early in this season with her faboo haircut her brand new empathy power and her relationship with jason dean. obvious strikes against for whatever the fuck that baby crazy stint was and also the mata hari episode. yikes. i love paigeās hair color in this season nothing paige as a character necessarily stands out to me however i like how they seem to have hit the blend of work-magic with paige where she wants a life and career outside of magic however she still loves the craft and embraces is with an open heart and mind. season six also gives us chris who was a very fun male lead imo we really didnāt have many like him heās bitchy. he whines and bitches a lot heās got an agenda heās a bit secretive but at the end of the day he just wants a family i like him. i like the character growth we see out of piper i like seeing her try to move on from leo i love seeing her get back together with leo i like her dynamic with chris and her fears about motherhood. i also liked richard but that one takes a lot of justification. Lās are witchstock hyde school reunion used karma off the top of my head also the paige/richard/addiction plotline was so tone deaf. also the girls were mean to darryl : ( he deserved so much better. dubs were chris as a character, tbh the episode little monsters, phoebe with empathy specifically saying i love you too to jason i could write a dissertation on that line alone also the courtship of wyattās father and i thought the reveals of evil wyatt and chris being piper and leoās son were both fun and interesting plot twists.
coming in third is actually season 2Ā a season i really do love itās just. it lacks structure. imo there is a lot to love about season 2 morality bites and pardon my past are both delightful time travel episodes we get jack sheridan and bane jessup two of my personal favorite prue love interests we get p3 h2o and a great prue plotline regarding the death of patty we get the super cute cupid episode itās a great. collection of episodes. itās not a great season. thereās just imo not a strong enough thread connecting the stories together itās mainly held together by having the same characters in it over and over again i really liked dan personally but like. i knew we were wasting time there. he was just an obstacle. a super cute loving and caring obstacle whoās great with kids but lbr piper and leo were always endgame. wasting our time on dan was stupid. i do love the sister dynamics in season two āgotta hand it to those pesky little demons they sure have brought us closer togetherā but again. this season could have benefitted from a rex and hannah type or even like a cole or zankou. this season is less of a season and more of just like a handful of episodes, and while there are some fat dubs, there are also some definite swings & misses. shout out to the time travel episodes the prue centric episodes phoebeās character growth and maturity throughout this season (e.g. her going back to college) and i also think the fashion got a lot more fun this season.
second place iām saying season oneĀ season one was a really strong start and gave us these really compelling characters with interesting relationships between one another But. a lot of it just kinda falls flat. and credit where credit is due it was a brand new show getting its feet under it but the fourth sister feats of clay which prue is it anyway they just simply arenāt dubs imo. also i donāt like that 70ā²s episode bc again i am an asshole concerned about The Lore i canāt believe one bitch ass warlock caused the Charmed Ones to grow up without powers. it just really bugs me. all in all the plots as a whole like arenāt great imo theyāre nothing to write home about (save for from fear to eternity) itās really the characters that make this season so goddamn good.
first place congratulations to the one the only season three. this is just because it kinda hits all my requirements in that it has some banger one offs (e.g. all halliwellās eve, the good, the bad, and the cursed) it has an overarching plot at the exact same time as the source becomes more prominent and obvi cole is also there with murderous intent i like the character growth we see especially from prue i like piper and leo finally get married overall i really like the aesthetic of this season that blends a darker urban fantasy tone with still some charmed fashion and whimsy. strikes against tbh phoebe and coleās relationship i am insanely picky with my enemies to lovers and the do not come remotely close to cutting the mustard in fact they are almost immediately disqualified however from afar i can see and respect The Drama. shout out to recasting victor prue with pistols death as a character and shannen directing episodes
#and of course this is a matter of opinion i'm not expecting everyone to agree w me Howver#i think you'd also be hard pressed to talk me out of my opinion#like the closer you get to the top there's more wiggle room like what's the best season i think changes with the wind#but the shit tier stays shit tier in my mind it's a matter of personal preference and i personally prefer my season to be good#charmed#š

So I finished reading The One Known By Many Names an hour ago. Jeez that was a lot. Your writing is top notch as always and I think honestly for the first time in ever, you have written sex scenes that I could actually read and not feel weird about. It wasn't forced, it felt plot relevant, and featured character growth within the actions.
Now after reading the final chapter I can't help but wonder wistfully what Cinder and Jaune would be like as parents. Ah it's one of those things you didn't realize you wanted until you've realized it, now you really want to see it. Ah. I can't help but picture Cinder freaking out about having children, believing that she would mess everything up in the worst ways possible with Jaune trying to soothe her worries with his own excitement, only to later hold her child(ren) and then vow to personally never allow any of her children to go through any of the horrible things she herself had to go through. Overprotective, but in a good way and with very good reasons. And loving, the way she should have been loved.
Hi!! <3 Thank you so much for reading!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. (o:
Yeah I think what I personally find valuable is when a sex scene serves things in the narrative. It's a win-win because it makes it more titillating lol. You're not necessarily sacrificing the physical and sensory intensity, you're only (ideally) making it more pronounced.
So to me, it's more a case of 'better' smut as opposed to 'serious' smut, if that makes sense.
And I think specific to the fic there's the element where a thing which happens in Chapter 2 as a sex/possessive thing (lol) has consequences (positive ones, in fact) in the next chapter, so you get some sort of literal... functional link of ideas between what's sexy and what's actually happening in the story.
I think so, anyway. Sorry to gasbag.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. (: I think I'm also hoping to demonstrate some - skill? sensitivity? - for Skimming Eye, because longfic smut can sometimes be a gamble. Too euphemistic, or boring, or unbefitting the story, or the sexual content/arousal comes out of nowhere... I have tried to build the idea up of it in the story organically (even with my silly silly metaphorical sex lololol).
On your lattermost point: yeah I think it's a very organic conclusion and makes a lot of sense, specific to these characters, not even just as a bog-standard 'happy ending'.
The most interesting thing to me is that relationship between an agent of death in the story and an agent of life. You don't often get villains who later become mothers themselves, either. There's also that symbolic renewal specific to the story with Salem and Ozma losing their daughters. And then as you quite rightly point out, Cinder getting to a point where she would treat a child the way she was never treated. Plus, you get all of the Mother, Maiden, Crone triple goddess stuff with the Maidens, so I think it's very much a thematically consistent idea - in terms of Cinder redeeming the power in her character arc especially.
But oh, do not even get me STARTED on the Usurper and the Holy Mother stuff I read into them and how I think Jaune factors in.
So I have thought about this a lot and I kind of can't comment upon it more, beyond receiving your enthusiasm with joy. But it's very much an idea which resonates with me personally and I think about it a lot.
Thank you again for reading and your lovely ask. <3 <3 Truly makes my day!
Honestly, I need lots of attention for working on Chapter 14, so this is great. XD Thank you <3

Justin Achilli used to stumble around the old WW office as a character mumbling and shouting about all the Drakulas. Might be two lās and/or two kās in there. Maybe a g. I honestly couldnāt tell you, but all I could hear is him yelling about them this week as I thought about our meeting today.
Of course, as per the cover featured in the art above, weāre thrilled to be able to put the latest Vampire: The Requiem 2nd Edition supplement, Thousand Years of Night, on sale on DriveThru this Wednesday. First the Advance PDF, and after we get any notes back from purchasers, weāll make an errata pass and get an updated final version of the PDF up, and get the physical copy PoD on sale too.
If youāve been following, this was one of the first ideas for a VtR supplement that Rollickinā Rose pitched to me as VtR developer, and it felt the pressure exerted by her expanding duties here at Onyx Path. It just got bogged down as Rose stepped up to cover crisis after crisis as Development Producer. As much as Rose loves VtR, and boy does she, she didnāt hesitate long after realizing that she needed help in bringing this book to fruition.
We were incredibly lucky that Dynamic Danielle Lauzon could take over as VtR2 developer, and we hope you are as thrilled by her work with this book as we all are! (You can find more details in the BLURBS! section, below)
Ā Ā Ā Thousand Years of Night art by Mark Kelly
Ā Ā The other Vampire bit of news has been last weekās release of the V5 pre-Alpha playtest packet by White Wolf. To say that there are a lot of opinions about this very, very early look at a few systems and some suggestions of the setting they work within, would be like saying the sea sure has a lot of water in it.
The reason I bring it up here, is that part of the āpacketā is a survey for folks to let WW know what they think of the pre-Alpha playtest, and, for me, the survey is really the biggest point for releasing the whole thing at all. If you look at the specific questions, you can see the emphasis on how the Hunger and Compulsion rules both work and feel in play. Same thing for the scenario, drawn from the innovative End of the Line larp in Berlin during the recent convention there.
And then there is the section for additional comments, which I know is where a lot of folks are going to shine. Or at least, you really could shine there, because this is your best chance to help the gang at White Wolf really understand your thoughts about this very first thing that they have produced to start the process ā and it is a process ā of creating the newest edition of Vampire: The Masquerade.
Hereās the link to their blog: http://ift.tt/2rviUWa
Iām telling you, itās an amazing opportunity, and these surveys are going right to their very small team. If the Hunger mechanic sounds awesome, letting them know now gives it the best chance to survive the next iterations, and I believe there will be lots of those, and into the final published V5. If the writing style or subject matter works for your VtM, or doesnāt, then let them know that so they understand how their efforts are impacting you and the game and setting you love.
Now, Iām not going to suggest the obvious: that you compose your comments with the idea that an obscenity-laced, all caps, message filled with invective might not be the most effective way to hold and keep the WW gangās attention. Iām not going to speak for them, and I have no idea how they react to such things, but I always hear from all those consumer advice advocates that polite and to the point is what tends to work best.
Iāve found that to be the case; your mileage may vary.

Weāre expecting to get the Princeās Gambit card game KS BackerKit site up this week.
Weāre also expecting to close down the Pugmire KS BackerKit site this week or the next.
LisaT tell me that she counted up the freelancers paid the first half of the month at she paid 42 excellent creators, which she tells me is average for a two-week period. For anyone wondering at the extent of that part of our business.
Expect the third Dragon Blooded charms excerpt to go up this week from our new EX3 developers, Eric Minton and Robert Vance. And weāre looking at getting the next monthly releases for our two ongoing EX3 books out before the end of the month too ā just need some WW approvals.
Weāve received some ideas for Dark Eras 2 from our project developers, and Rose, Mighty Matt McElroy, and I, will be discussing those this week in terms of how weāre structuring the book and Kickstarter this time. I had earlier compiled and shared all the suggestions for Dark Eras from our DE1 backers, and BOY there were a lot of great ideas there. We want to do this Dark Eras 2 Kickstarter before much longer so that it doesnāt smash into Gen Con prep.
