Magical First Season of "Charmed Ones" a Winner!May 06, 2005
By Benjamin J Burgraff As a loyal fan of the Sisters Halliwell, the long-overdue release of the boxed set "Charmed - The Complete First Season" is a great pleasure!
Beginning with the discovery of their magical abilities, the first season wisely avoided "Buffy" comparisons by focusing, instead, on the efforts of the three sisters to combine "The Power of Three" with some semblance of a 'normal' life. Thus, eldest sister, Prue (the tempermental and ultimately 'short-lived' sibling, Shannen Doherty) juggles appraising antiquites, a sporadic affair with Homicide detective Andy Trudeau (T.W. King), and serving as a mentor to her younger sisters, while shy, introverted Piper (Holly Marie Combs) combines her talents as a chef with managing the trendy bistro, "Quake", and experiences a growing attraction to a handyman with a 'secret', Leo (Brian Krause). Only the youngest sister, free-spirited Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) shuns a regular job, devoting herself to exploring the sisters' mystical guidebook, the "Book of Shadows", and learning of their mystical heritage.
For those more familiar with the flashier, occasionally silly storylines of later seasons, the first 22 episodes may come as quite a surprise; each episode is carefully crafted, offers some excellent acting, and is often quite compelling. While Piper's droll timing and sarcastic one-liners (a major reason for the series' continuing success) are seldom evident in the first season, the incredible chemistry between her and Leo is ever-present, and far more interesting than the Prue/Andy romance, a fact not lost on the writers (Andy would be gone by season's end, while the door was wisely 'left open' to allow Leo an increasingly important role in the Halliwell's lives). Other regulars of the "Charmed" 'universe' are also introduced, including Andy's partner, the long-suffering Inspector Darryl Morris (Dorian Gregory); wise and funny 'Grams' Halliwell (the delightful Jennifer Rhodes); the sisters' mother, Patty (Finola Hughes), and father, Victor (portrayed in the first season by "Crime Story" alum, Tony Denison, and replaced by James Read in subsequent seasons).
The rapport between the three leading actresses is warm, genuine, and unforced, with no hint of the future on-set rivalries between Doherty and Milano that would create headlines by Season Three (and would lead to Doherty 'walking off' the show). Season One, in fact, includes one of Doherty's best "Charmed" performances, as three variations of herself, in the wryly funny "Which Prue Is It, Anyway?" While some male fans may be disappointed in Phoebe's less-revealing outfits in the first season, she was never cuter, or sweeter, than in these first 22 episodes.
"Charmed" has had many memorable moments over it's seven-year run, and certainly deserves boxed sets of each season; whether you have followed the series from the first episode, or are catching up, Season One is well worth a place in your DVD collection (although some 'bonus' materials would have been a welcome addition to the set).
Experience "The Power of Three" from the beginning...you'll be glad you did!

Finally the Charmed OnesNov 10, 2004
By D. Cooper
"tyggy"
After many years of waiting we finally have something to show for it, Charmed on DVD!! The first season of this show was enough to make you either love it or hate it. Now the power of three can set us free. I have compiled an episode run down with plot lines so for those who have never seen this great show you can decide if you want to invest in it. If you are a Buffy and/or Angel fan and still have not really watched Charmed might I suggest you make the purchase. You won't be sorry!

The Power of Three Finally Comes to DVDNov 14, 2004
By M. Hart
"Sci-Fi Fan"
Inspired by the actual Earth-centered religion of Wicca, many television viewers in 1998 became enchanted with the fictional story of three extraordinary sisters who, after their grandmother's death, discover that they are witches and that each has a unique magical power. The oldest, Prudence "Prue" Halliwell (Shannen Doherty), discovers that she has a magical "punch" with which she can physically force anyone (or anything) to be thrown away from her. The middle sister, Piper Halliwell (Holly Marie Combs), discovers that she can magically freeze anyone or anything. The youngest sister, Phoebe Halliwell (Alyssa Milano), discovers that she has a magical gift of foresight that allows her to see potentially disastrous future events for individuals if she touches an object that has been handled by them. As it turns out, the sisters' mother Patty Halliwell (regular guest Finola Hughes) and their grandmother Penny 'Grams' Halliwell (regular guest Jennifer Rhodes) were also witches and hidden within their San Francisco house attic is their famed Book of Shadows (book of spells and information about various paranormal beings, such as demons and white lighters). The sisters also discover that they are unique among witches in that they possess the very powerful ability to invoke the "power of three", which is a very powerful incantation that can be used to destroy demons and other evil beings. In fact, that is their mission: to protect the world from the evil attacks of various demons, warlocks and other evil beings. Of course, these newly discovered abilities and frequent attacks from demons wreak havoc for the sisters' lives, especially their careers and attempts at dating. However, the sisters also discover that they are not alone in their efforts as they are frequently visited by the ghosts of their mother and grandmother, and that the equivalent of a guardian angel known as a "white lighter", Leo Watts (Brian Krause), not only provides them with important information and assistance, he can also heal them of their wounds. The sisters are also occasionally visited by their estranged father, Victor Bennett (regular guest James Read); and because the sisters are so frequently involved with seemingly criminal activities, they become friends with local police officer Darryl Morris (Dorian Gregory).
The 22 episodes of the first season include: "Something Wicca Comes This Way", "I've Got You Under My Skin", "Thank You For Not Morphing", "Dead Man Dating", "Dream Sorcerer", "Wedding From Hell", "The Fourth Sister", "The Truth is Out There... and It Hurts", "The Witch Is Back", "Wicca Envy", "Feats of Clay", "The Wendigo", "From Fear To Eternity", "Secrets and Guys", "Is There a Woogy in the House?", "Which Prue Is It, Anyway?", "That '70s Episode", "When Bad Warlocks Go Good", "Blind Sided", "The Power of Two", "Love Hurts" and season finale "Deja Vu All Over Again". With engaging characters, wonderful scripts, exciting plots and great special effects, I rate the first season of "Charmed" with a resounding 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommend it. Though Shannen Doherty left "Charmed" after its third season, the show has continued to gain popularity when it included a new sister, Paige Matthews (Rose McGowan), at the beginning of the fourth season. The seventh season of "Charmed" is currently being broadcasted.

The wait is over....May 05, 2005
By G. Boteler
"Book and Music Lover!"
I have watched Charmed since it first aired and have waited anxiously for the series to be released on DVD. It is great to have these shows on DVD but there are no special features!! WHY? It would have been great to see maybe some screen tests, a glimpse at the original Phoebe or something but we have not been so lucky. If you like Charmed, it is a must have but if you are looking for the extras, they just aren't here.
