This is the place to discuss Sleuthing with the Enemy and for quotes from the episode.

A few say that this is the episode in which Phoebe starts turning into PhoeME.
Can't really disagree with that.

Phoebe lying to her sisters was when I was very angry the sisterhood was no longer important to the story, it just became a show where drama was created for the heck.of it, even if it went against everything the show set out to be with girl power and sisterhood.

Looks like we're on the same page here.
In Season One, it was three sisters who happened to be witches. In the later seasons, it was three demon hunters co-habiting the same house.
Charmed lost its charm (no pun intended) when Brad Kern (or Kernus, as he is known in some fan circles), seized power.

Couldn't agree more. He destroyed the characters. They were not the characters Connie based on herself and her two older sisters. I'd love to read how it could have been, if we got to see how Charmed would be without Kern. I am not surprised but a little shocked he got away with treating the writera like dirt Kern. No wonder the show went downhill. If only he was exposed in 2001, imagine how Charmed would be without him. Still you'd have to deal with the WB. But some showrunners stood up to The WB, because they cared about their show, not Kern wanting the profits and why he agreed to S8 and WB demands, when the show could have ended.

Charmed would have been SO better off, had Kernus been exposed for the monster he was back then. Perhaps, once he'd been kicked out the door, Connie might have come back.

I agree. Especially if the sisters stayed the important aspect of the series. While S6 onwards felt like it was all about Piper's family and Phoebe's love life and Paige was just an after thought.

And it's when Kernus seized power that the male characters starting gaining more prominence.
