DESPERATELY CHARMED - Wyatt's (Kristopher and Jason Simmons) impending school play brings out the competitive nature in Piper (Holly Marie Combs) when her hand-sewn costume for Wyatt and her parenting ability are attacked by Mandi (Michelle Stafford), the perfect Stepford-like mother. Unbeknownst to Piper, Mandi is a demon in disguise, befriending Wyatt so that she can kidnap him to use his powers to bring back The Source and create the perfect demon family. Meanwhile, bored with learning the basics of magic but intrigued with the idea of a Magic School, Billie (Kaley Cuoco) uses a potion to send her and Leo (Brian Krause) to the school. Once there, they realize that the school has been taken over by demons who have kidnapped Wyatt. Knowing that Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) feels Dex (Jason Lewis) is the one, Paige (Rose McGowan) worries when she suspects he is seeing another woman, and decides to intervene.

Here are the fast affiliate ratings :

Charmed (Overnights: 3.6/ 5; Viewers: 4.14 million; A18-49: 1.8/ 5).

Considering the final ratings will probably be higher the ratings continue to rise. Last week drew 4.12 million viewers. The show's ratings have risen a little bit each week. :)

I didn't see it. I was on Vacation and forgot to tape it. I heard the ratings went up a little since last week. :(

you beat me to post them! :lol:

I am so happy to inform that Charmed imporved its ratings again bringing in the best overnight ratings thus far this season. Charmed's fourth episode this season averaged 3.6/5 in the overnights and the fast affilate ratings tell us that the episode was watched by 4.14 mil. viewers. Again the magical drama was the highest rated show on TheWB's Sunday lineup. Here is what Mediaweek.com has to say about TheWB's performance this Sunday.
Last, and very least, was the WB's line-up of two repeat episodes of Reba (Overnights: 2.3/ 4; Viewers: 2.26 million; A18-49: 0.9/ 3 from 7-8 p.m.), Charmed (Overnights: 3.6/ 5; Viewers: 4.14 million; A18-49: 1.8/ 5), and two episodes of Blue Collar TV (original and repeat - Overnights: 2.0/ 3; Viewers: 2.41 million; A18-49: 1.0/ 2 from 9-10 p.m.). Instead of throwing the Sunday 7 p.m. hour away with sitcom repeats every season, why doesn't the WB develop a new family drama?
As always, Final Nationals are due tomorrow, and expect the viewership number to increase a little bit.

Wow great episode...my fav. episode so far this season...

The final national ratings are in. Charmed was watched by 4,210,000 viewers, this is slighty less than what the season premiere averaged. 'Desperate Housewitches' was able to keep the fifth place in TheWB's ranking for Charmed which was 37.7% above lead-in Reba:Beginnings. Blue Collar TV held only 54.3% of Charmed's audience. I think there will be some major scheduling after the holidays.
