Season Prmeiere - Still Charmed and Kicking Airs September 25 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Superstar · 09-03-2005, 03:26 AM

JASON LEWIS ("SEX AND THE CITY") & KALEY CUOCO ("8 SIMPLE RULES") JOIN THE CAST - Presumed dead, the Charmed sisters start their demon-free existence with new identities brought about by a spell that altered their appearances to the outside world, but not to those closest to them. Phoebe (Alyssa Milano), excited to start her new life, is surprised to see Dex Lawson (Jason Lewis), a gorgeous artist she barely knew, at her funeral and even more surprised when she has a premonition that she will marry him. Now able to have a normal family life, Piper (Holly Marie Combs) remains paranoid that the demons will find out the sisters are still alive. Attending her funeral disguised as supermodel Janice Dickinson (guest starring as herself), Paige (Rose McGowan) realizes that she spent too much time in the magic world, yet soon figures out that she can't escape her Whitelighter instincts and answers a call of a new charge - a young witch named Billie (Kaley Cuoco).
James L. Conway directed the episode written by Brad Kern.

I think I'm joining my friend Christine this season and will let "Something Wicca This Way Goes" be my last new episode. The show has been in decline for quite some time and from the spoilers I've heard, as well as the fact they're turning it into a teen vehicle with Kaley Cuoco means it's probably time I give up on Charmed for good and keep the memory of what the show once was alive. The only thing they can do to win many of us back is to have Prue return ala Grams and Mom just once.

I actually thought Season 7 was one of the best seasons.

What did everyone think of the episode?

Superbowl · 09-26-2005, 10:12 AM

I loved the season premiere. The Charmed ones looked great as usual, and I think Kaley Cuoco is going to be a great addition. She sort of reminded like a Wonder Woman type character.

tiff7 · 09-26-2005, 01:25 PM

I thought it rocked, though Kaley was only in parts of the episode-maybe next week she'll be in more episodes!

I thought it was great, cant wait to see what happens next.

I watched the last half, so I am wondering if this is explained in the first half. The girls look different to everyone else correct? In TV Guide I read they didn't have powers and they were going to have to earn them back, so how are they able to still keep the spell on their appearances going? Since the underworld knows they are alive, I hope they go back in time and change all of this so they can drop the appearance spell and having everyone think they died.

Season eight of Charmed opened to rather bad numbers compared to what we've seen over the years, however considering the competition it's not all too bad. According to Mediaweek.com "Still Charmed & Kicking" averaged a 3.4/ 5 in the overnights and 3.98 mil. viewers. These are overnight ratings, the Final Total Viewers will come out tomorrow, expect the numbers to be slightly over the four million mark.
Worth positively noting is that Charmed remains the most-watched show on TheWB's Big Sunday. Charmed built by 88.62% or 1.87 mil viewers from lead-in Reba and was 32.66% or 1.3 mil viewers above lead-out Blue Collar TV.

Please let us know what the final total viewers was for the premiere. I would love to know what the actual numbers were.

Thanks.
