Charmed forever..

So, over the weekend the last ever charmed aired. I got to see it yesterday. Now, I mean Ive watched every charmed there is, Im an avid fan. Why? I guess because like so many I would love to believe there some element of magic for real in life. The fact that charmed shows magic being hidden from people in someways makes it more real!

Series 1-7 had strong endings, even series 7 where it was potentially the end of charmed. At the point of filming the decision to make series 8 hadnt happened, and when it did happen it was a reduced budget, hence the lack of Leo, Darryl etc this year. However. What a flipping lame ending.

Im not going to give the ending away, because I know at least 1 person reading this hasnt seen it. All I can say is its a carebare attitude and seemed to just well break half the meaning and presense Charmed has had. This last series really has centered on Piper, who I feel a better affinity to. Shes not exactly a babe within charmed, shes kinda more average in a way, but that power to freeze?? oh would that be a cool thing. Premenitions.. nice.. ability to summon objects or orb.. nice.. but to freeze??how many times would you love to freeze someone, scream blue murder at them saying probably a number of over exagerations take a couple of deep breaths and then hear what they have to say.. that way you could have the satisfaction of the shouting, without any of the fall out!! (yeah I know personal gain.. bah)

Im sad Charmed is over, it would have been nice to have like the last one as a film length real big spender job.
