I wonder if that was the reason they cast him.
Better than those three morons just bumbling into her.
That Old Black Magic was not well received by the fans when it originally aired. Had this version been made instead, I believe that it would have gotten a much better reception.

From what I've heard about this series, I so wish I could join in. I feel that I could be a valuable member of the team.
But alas, none of this was happening when I left the Cafe in 2016.

Carina phoebeville Deidre WarrenCLASSIC “CHARMED” DONE OUR WAY! Based on the classic TV series created by Constance M. Burge
Written By Team Charmed Cafe's Sunday Group: Olga, Prudence, Ruth Marie and Sasha
Edited by Esmeralda With special thanks to Pheebs from Team Charmed Cafe's Saturday Group who let us adapt her Deadline articles for our version! DISCLAIMER: We don't own anything Charmed, which was owned by Aaron Spelling Productions and is now owned by CBS-TV Productions. These fan-written "press releases" were not written for profit but only for the pleasure of fans visiting Charmed sites. This should give you an idea what Sunday's group's version is like. (There's also a Saturday group, but they're not ready to post their version yet since it still has a ton of inconsistencies - happens when you combine episodes, which is why we Sunday group decided to not do that.) Right now this is just more of a teaser - I'm not going to release more until those reading Elemental Charmed finish. I haven't posted here because I totally disagree with most of the comments about coronavirus and just don't want to argue it--time will prove who is right and who is wrong. BUT for those who are properly doing what's necessary to prevent the spread of this pandemic, I decided to suspend my decision to not release more until after we are no longer have to shelter at home and release a new episode each Sunday. Of course, if Tim is the only one who reviews any of these, I'll stop, since his "reviews" are not worth the time reading. But as long as one other member reviews the latest episode, I'll post another one the following Sunday. So here's Part Two of Sunday's pilot episode:

CLASSIC “CHARMED” DONE OUR WAY! Based on the classic TV series created by Constance M. Burge

Right now this is just more of a teaser - I'm not going to release more until those reading Elemental Charmed finish. PVILLE SAID: Thanks Es for sharing these with us. PVILLE SAID: I'm going to enjoy reading some of this now until the suspension is lifted, Es. PVILLE SAID: I enjoy reading this. Since they are based on real ones, I may not have seen before. And If I read these articles when the show was airing and was old enough, this would hook me. I like seeing Shannen and Holly's friendship come through here. I also like Alyssa's first interactions with Shannen spoken about. I forgot Charmed originally aired Wednesday Nights. PVILLE SAID: And I remember she starred on Melrose Place, I'll wonder, if she never was part of this series right before Charmed. I wonder, if she'd have even been cast as her replacement, if she wasn't already on a Spelling Show at the time. PVILLE SAID: I love seeing these premises here. What a great way to market the show, not like a certain reboot. PVILLE SAID: He is right, she is a terrific actress. PVILLE SAID: I wonder, if this is why it moved from the Wednesday time-slot, if it was opposite against this show. PVILLE SAID: I do like this start with Grams better than showing another witch we barely know about. A much better way to set up the story. Just like canon, it is Piper who finds her. PVILLE SAID: I'm glad she is following her dreams. PVILLE SAID: I don't blame them, too soon for the tape. But, from the teases above, I know what that tape is likely. PVILLE SAID: I love this so much better, with why Phoebe returns home, and best part no Roger drama. I also like the exchange where Prue can't say I love you, and her sisters just look at each other. PVILLE SAID: I'm very happy they have decided to do that, which they should. . PVILLE SAID: I like this set-up with introducing the co-stars. PVILLE SAID: This made me sad, well done. I like that all three decided to stand up together. PVILLE SAID: And I'm sure that was one heartfelt eulogy. PVILLE SAID: Now this is a good time to bring them in. Poor Peyton, having spent most of her life in foster homes. Yeah, she shouldn't be with them, and is an outsider. PVILLE SAID: Now, we're getting to the canon parts, yes, Serena dying now fits here. PVILLE SAID: Not just yet, but you'll see it when you can. PVILLE SAID: I like Peyton picking up the cat, not Darryl like canon, where Andy did. PVILLE SAID: Time to watch the tape. I do like them seeing the book on the pedestal and having theories, already good teases for what's to come, with them about to look at it, before they Prue comes with the tape. PVILLE SAID: Now this is the best way to have Grams prepare them. I really like this tape. Whoever decided this in the group, well done. PVILLE SAID: So in character for Phoebe to be excited, not the others yet. And, a really good spot to end Part 1. Really enjoyable first episode. PVILLE SAID: Thanks for sharing. It did give me a good idea Es. I understand not wanting to share Saturday just yet, because of their inconsistencies. That's fine Es.

Much like the real pilot, but different. Grams is in it, while she wasn't in the real show (because Jennifer Rhodes hadn't been cast yet). And she is murdered, rather than dying of natural causes.
Andy doesn't exist in this reality.
Of course the big change is Peyton Fallon, who is very different from her real show counterpart.
And Esmerdala, I do want more, thank you.

With special thanks to Pheebs from Team Charmed Cafe's Saturday Group who let us adapt her Deadline articles for our version!
DISCLAIMER: We don't own anything Charmed, which was owned by Aaron Spelling Productions and is now owned by CBS-TV Productions. These fan-written "press releases" were not written for profit but only for the pleasure of fans visiting Charmed sites.
Well done team. Looking forward to reading it now. CARINA: Love this press release. I love Alyssa and Holly's comments on Shannen. They have such good chemistry. CARINA: So cool to read this one. Funny, how when they promoted Charmed at Upfronts, Lori was still part of it, so all the real promotion with the pilot pick-up still had her included. So if the actresses were at WB Upfronts 98, there must be some press with Lori included. If Alyssa was cast in August, but I'm sure most of us wouldn't even remember all of that, since back then you couldn't really follow shows deeply as we can now online and we didn't have Youtube and social media to follow truly all the press just what we saw on television or in the papers or magazines. CARINA: I love this, and seeing the premise. I love the comments from them. Party of Five would be a big one to have gone up against on Wednesday nights, another series starring siblings. They really made the right call switching nights.
CARINA SAID: I love love this intro with Grams, this really sets. And remembering the canon from Pre-Witched where she falls down the stairs and Piper finds her. Difference here is not of a heart attack. I really like this much more than showing Serena first, fits much better.
Also, I love this addition too with my post credits shots. CARINA SAID: I really loved the VHS tape in yours. Really was a great addition, even on a re-read. CARINA SAID: And I still really like your additions here with Prue not being able to say I love you here. CARINA SAID: I like the way this connects Darryl to the sisters, and he has a deep connection to them and her death knowing her. CARINA SAID: So sweet, I love the sisterly scenes. CARINA SAID: And I'm sure I'd be crying watching Piper reading her eulogy, if this was real. CARINA SAID: Great parts. Yes, Peyton being in foster homes is sad, but I agree, she isn't family, so should not be included in that. Which bugs me about Paige, I get wanting a connection because she will be a sister, but it made it too much about her being there, than mourning Prue and the sisters. The funeral felt less about Prue and more about introducing Paige, which is why I didn't like Paige attending Prue's funeral in canon, unless she really knew her. Sorry to get sidetracked. CARINA SAID: And I still like that you had her being the second death. CARINA SAID: And I love how you wrote this part, adapted to fit CCDOW. CARINA SAID: I like that Peyton picks up the cat not Darryl. CARINA SAID: I love this addition, perfect, and I really like Grams leaving the video for them. CARINA SAID: I love this, and having Phoebe be excited about wanting to know more about magic, while Prue and Piper are not. CARINA Said: Great cliffhanger. CARINA SAID: That really makes sense, if it isn't ready and has some inconsistencies, I do think not sharing it makes perfect sense to me. I understand Es feeling that way with the coronavirus talk. And lately, I'm just not bothering with the coronavirus talk, or going on and on talking about it. Especially the media when they continue to report on 24/7, so I pay little attention to it these days. And am just doing the right thing that we're required in this pandemic. Moving on. I've enjoyed what you have shared so far. I can't resist, going into Part Two already.
ES: So here's Part Two of Sunday's pilot episode: CARINA SAID I like this opening to Part Two, the excitement is great. CARINA SAID: I love this teaser of Part 2. Perfect! CARINA SAID: I like this, because in canon, she did stay up all night to read. CARINA SAID: I love this addition, because all three are together. Hated that they had Prue go off to work already, with just Phoebe sitting on the steps with Piper. So many different versions. I remember one, where Piper was in a herb garden talking to Phoebe, and then another where Prue did talk to Phoebe but Piper was asleep. Must be thinking of the Charmed Book adaption of this episode, or the Unaired Pilot, I watched on Youtube a few years ago. CARINA SAID: I really REALLY love this addition. Perfect way to set up Part Two. CARINA SAID: I like that she does that, Phoebe. CARINA SAID: I love this addition. And love Phoebe when she is in research mode. I think I just like the way Alyssa acts reading something, I find her voice more calming than Holly or Shannen for some reason, when she is reading the book. CARINA SAID: Phoebe, I'd be scared if he was a warlock. CARINA SAID: And this is different than canon a little,, but love that she is upset she didn't get one of the other two powers. CARINA SAID: Oh No, it was Piper. I love this twist, that it was Piper hurt, not Phoebe that needs hospital attention. Is Chef Moore the warlock in this. CARINA SAID: Poor Piper, things don't go well for her right at the start. CARINA SAID: Now, you've led me convinced it could be Darryl again. CARINA SAID: I'm so glad you believe her and Grams now Piper. CARINA SAID: I love how you managed to combine this so well, that it feels way more sisters-centric than even canon. I love that this scene takes place at the hospital cafeteria. CARINA SAID: Another brilliant change, that this important scene features all three, not just Prue and Phoebe. CARINA SAID: I sure worry for Piper again. But is this going to be the same as canon? CARINA SAID: No, still Jeremy. But, I love how you managed to fool me into thinking it was so many others. CARINA SAID: And I love that Peyton tells Prue this. And now, they are freaked out, and must be happy Piper is home. CARINA SAID: Jeremy always was a scary warlock, but felt more demon to me. CARINA SAID: YAY! He's gone. CARINA SAID: I love that Phoebe is still not convinced. CARINA SAID: I loved Part Two, you really had so much fun. And I enjoyed reading it.
ES: So? What do you think and do you (if you're not Tim...) want to read more? CARINA: More please.

ES: First, Carina, WELCOME BACK!!! Man, I've missed you! CARINA SAID: Well done team. Looking forward to reading it now. ES SAID: And looking forward to seeing what you think! Unfortunately I have to get to work soon (although I feel very blessed that I get to keep going to work, even if my hours have been cut. 30 hours is better than 0!) so I'm just going to post the episode and reply to your reviews later. I hope that's okay with you two (as usual I couldn't care less what Tim thinks since what he writes just makes me roll my eyes they're so obvious and boring).

Pretty much close to the actual episode, save for the absence of Andy, Rex, and Hannah. And since R&H don't exist, the whole subplot about Prue getting the job at Buckland's doesn't happen.
We see Darryl's wife appear, years before she appeared on the actual show.
And, of course, Peyton is present. Of course, her inclusion will change a few scenes.
My compliments to the Cafe bunch. You lot are doing a good job with your version of the show.

I'm glad you liked these, PVille. Now I'm looking forward to seeing what you think of our second episode. I hope you read what I wrote in the previous post: Oh no, I thought I reviewed Part 2 of the series opener. But, it appears to be gone on the thread. I also hate having to repeat something, I already did. But, I'll give a summary Es, so can know how I felt about it. So here's Part Two of Sunday's pilot episode:[/quote]So? What do you think and, PVille, do you want to read more? PVILLE: Going to try and repeat what I loved about it from last week (I hate having to do that) but I'd like to let everyone know what I thought. Really loved how sisterly focused it was, even more than the canon. I loved the moment in the attic when Prue finds Phoebe having been reading the book all night. I remember a certain Power of Three novel had Melinda Warren appear to her as a ghost. I also loved the twists, I really thought you were going to have Chef Moore as the warlock, when Piper got hurt. But, I loved them all going to the pharmacy, and Piper being included in this scene. I also loved how the sisters were with Prue watching her close the manor door.

NOTE FROM ES: This is why we didn't have Phoebe save the boy on the skateboard - letting Brittany truly be the first innocent who the Charmed Ones save. PVILLE: I was wondering Es, why you called it the First Innocent as a tagline. ------------------- PVILLE: I love that we get to meet Sheila already this early. I notice it is pretty much the same as canon, with some differences. No Rex or Hannah, so Prue is still working at the Museum. I like that Prue also trusts her own instincts with Darryl, and love that she just wants to catch up with her old friends. I love that it was Prue who introduced Darryl to Sheila, so in a way, that means Sheila has a history with Prue too as a friend. I love this. My issue about this one in the canon was how badly Brad Kern made me dislike Prue and Andy's relationship troubles in this one. So you made me a very happy fan with the changes.

The novelization of the pilot had that scene. It happened just after Phoebe read the spell that activated their powers.
Melinda appeared all charred, because the writers were operating under the mistaken assumption that witches were burned in Salem. Of course, they weren't, they were hanged.
When Summer adapted the scene for her Charmed ReImagined story, she kept the scene with Melinda's ghost, however, said ghost had a rope burn around her neck, indicating her execution by hanging.

I also hate having to repeat something, I already did. But, I'll give a summary Es, so can know how I felt about it. ES: Oh, you and me both! I HATE rewriting something I already wrote!! So I REALLY appreciate you doing that now! So? What do you think and, PVille, do you want to read more? PVILLE: Going to try and repeat what I loved about it from last week (I hate having to do that) but I'd like to let everyone know what I thought. ES: And again, I really appreciate you trying to repeat what you wrote before. ---------- PVILLE: Really loved how sisterly focused it was, even more than the canon. I loved the moment in the attic when Prue finds Phoebe having been reading the book all night. I remember a certain Power of Three novel had Melinda Warren appear to her as a ghost. ES: Yup, that was the novelization of SWTWC. We decided to keep ours a bit closer to canon and not have Melinda appear until 'The Witch is Back' so she wouldn't be burnt or hung. -------------- PVILLE: I also loved the twists, I really thought you were going to have Chef Moore as the warlock, when Piper got hurt. But, I loved them all going to the pharmacy, and Piper being included in this scene. ES: Hehehehe! Glad we kept you guessing. I THINK Saturday had the chef be the warlock, since he doesn't show up any more. Instead, we're almost done with S2 and Jeremy and Piper are still a couple - no Leo. --------------- PVILLE: I also loved how the sisters were with Prue watching her close the manor door. ES: As you can tell, we want all three actresses to be the stars, not just Shannen.

NOTE FROM ES: This is why we didn't have Phoebe save the boy on the skateboard - letting Brittany truly be the first innocent who the Charmed Ones save. PVILLE: I was wondering why you called it the First Innocent as a tagline. ES: Most of our taglines are the actual canon ones. It irritated us that they called it the first innocent when it wasn't - the boy on the skateboard was. So that's why we changed it - all part of our fun of sticking close to canon, but fixing what we don't like. ------------------- PVILLE: I love that we get to meet Sheila already this early. ES: We wanted to make it clear that Darryl and Prue are NOT a couple despite him taking Andy's role. And including Sheila makes it a bit more female-centric. ---------------- PVILLE: I notice it is pretty much the same as canon, with some differences. No Rex or Hannah, so Prue is still working at the Museum. ES: Yup, you're right. Our reaction was "Why reinvent the wheel?" But some of our readers got bored with it being so close to canon. So if at any point, you become bored, PVille (or Carina, if you read it), don't be afraid to say so and I'll stop posting. Actually, what we ended up doing in S2 is bold the parts that are different, so when we shared this with the Sunday group (and they shared theirs with us) we bolded the parts that are different (unless it was just Peyton replacing Darryl) so they could just skim the parts that are the same as canon and actually read the new parts. That worked out pretty good, so if PVille or Carina or Deidre (if she ever comes back) wants me to do that, I will. -------------- PVILLE: I like that Prue also trusts her own instincts with Darryl, and love that she just wants to catch up with her old friends. I love that it was Prue who introduced Darryl to Sheila, so in a way, that means Sheila has a history with Prue too as a friend. I love this. ES: YAY! Glad that you do. We really liked what we did with Sheila. --------------- PVILLE: My issue about this one in the canon was how badly Brad Kern made me dislike Prue and Andy's relationship troubles in this one. So you made me a very happy fan with the changes. ES: Oh, we totally ABHORED that! Both groups did and both groups changed it. Saturday did it by combining this one with the Banshee episode, letting the sisters continue to mourn the loss of Grams. And, no, none of the sisters turned into a banshee or a dog!

phoebeville Carina Deidre Warren Happy Easter, everyone! Even though I'm sure it's an unusual one, I hope it was still a good one for you. Since it's Sunday and PVille replied to Episode 3, here's Episode 4. I'm sure you'll notice that this one is "aired" earlier than it was in canon. We did that quite a bit for a very special reason, but one you'll have to figure that part out later... So? What do you think?

Well, Esmeralda, I see you continue to snub me, even though I'm here every day. On the other hand, Deidre, who hasn't been heard from in nearly half-a-year now, still gets a notice. Ah well...
Anyhoo, aside from being a few episode earlier than the canon version, the plot pretty much follows the same path as the canon episode. The only difference is that the museum replaces Buckland Auction House in Prue's dealing with Claire.
You even kept that silly Doug and Shelley subplot, even though it had absolutely no relevance to the main plot and was, IMO, only there to give Piper something to do.
Wonder why you lot moved it back from its original position? Guess we'll find out before long.

[/quote] CARINA: Catch up time on last weeks and this weeks. I'm very happy with this one, I'm not a fan of this episode outside of Piper's story. This one just took the parts I hated, and made it better. Love seeing Sheila introduced this early, and Prue reconnecting with her and Darryl. Now, I'm hoping Sheila will end up being the sisters female friend, they sure didn't have many of those, or if they did they suddenly disappeared after one episode.

But, I did enjoy coloring Easter Eggs with my mom, we made that our little project all last week, why I hadn't been on much. We've never done it before, but was fun to keep busy. I did got to talk to my extended family on the phone and skype over Easter, which was nice. I'm lookiing forward to finding out the special reason why this one is moved earlier. ES: So? What do you think? CARINA: I liked that you kept the ending, I liked that sisterly one. I also don't mind the Shelly and Doug story. Yes, like canon, Claire becomes Prue's new boss, but difference is at the Museum, after Roger is gone. I look forward to seeing why this one got placed earlier, and I have faith my CCDOW Team have done it for a great reason.

And I'll continue to snub you as long as you do boring "reviews" like this, while continuing to hope that Deirdre and her great reviews will return. Just because you're here with your "reviews" every day doesn't make you a productive member like the others--absolutely no reason to reply to you except to say stuff like this. I much prefer reviews like the others are giving me, even if they only show up when the productive members have time to give me one like they do. I'd never continue posting if your "reviews" were the only ones I was getting.

But I'm VERY glad that you like how we fixed it. We really did want the sisters to have a female friend who they knew from before and who is a "recurring character" rather than a once-only, and our version of Sheila (not nuts on her in the latter seasons, even if we don't blame her for feeling that way at all--not with that version of the "Charmed" Ones!) seemed like the perfect person--especially since as I've explained before, Darryl is taking Andy's place...

Since it's Sunday and PVille replied to Episode 3, here's Episode 4. I'm sure you'll notice that this one is "aired" earlier than it was in canon. We did that quite a bit for a very special reason, but one you'll have to figure that part out later... CARINA: HAPPY EASTER! It sure was, but at the same time my first without my dad. ES: I was thinking of you, Carina, wondering how your first Easter without your dad was going. CARINA: But, I did enjoy coloring Easter Eggs with my mom, we made that our little project all last week, why I hadn't been on much. We've never done it before, but was fun to keep busy. I did got to talk to my extended family on the phone and skype over Easter, which was nice. ES: Yeah, that's what we did, too - skype with the family and attend Easter Mass via TV. I also bought myself a chocolate Easter Bunny and a ham TV dinner so it would feel a bit more like Easter. And I took down my Christmas stuff - which seemed funny since outside looks more like Christmas than Easter. I keep it up all winter so that it can light up the dark during winter. I've always thought Christmas should happen on January 25th rather than December 25th - it would make getting through the coldest month easier, and historians are quite certain that Jesus was born in April, not December - December 25th was actually originally a Celtic holiday that Christians turned into Mary and Christ's Mass (Merry Christmas). CARINA: I'm lookiing forward to finding out the special reason why this one is moved earlier. ES: I'll admit that I'm a bit disappointed that you only commented on that, but since you're playing catch-up, I understand. I can't wait until you guys find out - especially if you figure it out before I reveal it! ES: So? What do you think? CARINA: I liked that you kept the ending, I liked that sisterly one. I also don't mind the Shelly and Doug story. ES: ------------- CARINA: Yes, like canon, Claire becomes Prue's new boss, but difference is at the Museum, after Roger is gone. ES: Yup. None of us wanted to include Rex and/or Hannah (especially her!). But in case you wonder, no, Buckland Museum has nothing to do with why we put this in a different spot. -------------- CARINA: I look forward to seeing why this one got placed earlier, and I have faith my CCDOW Team have done it for a great reason. ES: We sure think so, and I'm very curious to see if you guys will also think it's a good reason. Again, a shorter-than-usual review, but because you're catching up and because you've given such wonderful ones earlier, I understand.
