Charmed Review
FOREVER CHARMED
“Everything happens for a reason”
The title is self-explanatory. I am writing about my favorite TV series of all times – Charmed (1998-2006). As the tagline says, “Everything happens for a reason”, Charmed appears to me as the most endearing TV series for not only a reason but numerous reasons. This blog is meant to arouse sympathy in Charmedholics who may find something in common with me in their Charmed zone; and for open minds to assimilate new notion from a different angle.
Everyone has the right to put their personal reasons first, in some cases. And when it comes to cinema, one’s intuition and sensibility should speak the loudest voice, supposing his mind is not clouded by judgment. I could have actually talked about plots, scripts, acting or pictures first but what I want to prioritize here is something called the power of reminiscences. Charmed is obviously not the first series I’ve ever watched since my birth, but it marks a period of time dating from late primary school years till one or two beginning years of my junior high. I was a little too young back then to fully understand the series’ contents and all. Just like every kid else at my age, I watched it for my entertainment. I would always eagerly expect a new episode every night, exactly at 10p.m. Once in a while, the air time was unexpectedly changed, but it didn’t ignite even a ripple of frustration in my mind. Funny how to recollect the memory of me, several nights, falling asleep before the episode ended; or the image of a little schoolgirl rushing home right after the last class’ bell rang just to catch up with her favorite TV series (when the schedule was about 5p.m)… It was like a routine activity, or i.e. something that had stayed with me for so long that I grew to love it intuitively (in this case, it does have certain attributes to make me fall in love with). Let’s turn to another time when the series was rerun on TV - not longer after its debut appearance won many
