I’m going to come out and say this straight away—I love the original Charmed series and wasn’t happy that it was being rebooted. I’m not really a fan of reboots in general, I think that if you have a talented cast and crew, you should try your hand at an original show instead of rebooting a classic show from decades
Read moreThis episode went to great lengths to provide a contrast in the relationships of the main players by kicking off with Connor & Tahlia and Brian & Kath waking up in bed together, and a flashback to Paige’s drunken antics after she got home from her night out in the previous episode, setting the smoke alarm off with her sausages
Read moreSurprisingly this episode didn’t focus on the inquest or Rusty’s lying on the stand, instead this episode focused more on character development: Maddie and Trav—Their subplot was brief but interesting. At Jack’s wake she mentioned that she was struggling with the additional responsibilities in her new job and in this episode it’s actually focused on as she manages to find
Read moreThe job of a season finale is to conclude the story arcs of the season and open up new story arcs for the next season (if there is one). I feel like this finale didn’t really wrap things up, but it did open up potential new story arcs for the fourth season, if Doctor Doctor is renewed. I always say
Read moreAs I watching this episode, knowing it was the season and most likely series finale, based on a tweet I read from Shehadie, I was wondering whether both him and Bilgic wrote it knowing the show had an uncertain future. This episode breaks from the mould by Joseph and Tia breaking away from each other as he has Tia go
Read moreSince a lot happened in this episode, I’m going to be reviewing it character by character. Jessie and Rusty—The episode kicks off with Maddy going to see Jessie and discovering a positive pregnancy test in the trash. Although this isn’t touched on until later in the episode, the focus shifts to Rusty’s girlfriend, Carly, at Kath’s house during the next
Read moreThis is the episode everyone was waiting for, not because it means the end to the show but rather because Stephen is finally caught and arrested. One of the best aspects of this finale was that every character found out Stephen was the killer in a different way, so to honour this, I’m going to be reviewing the finale character
Read moreI’ll be reviewing this episode character by character. Hugh, Meryl, Ajax and Hayley—The episode kicks off with Hayley running on the farm and tripping over a hole, Meryl looking at houses for herself, and Rod revealing that his enterprises bought the farm and offering Meryl the chance to stay at the homestead for cheap rent and sexual favours. Meryl refuses
Read moreI found that this episode was symmetrical in a lot of ways. The gang’s scheme for this week comes from Hung to steal the money that’s deposited in shopping trolleys at the mall. Raj tries to tell them the obvious reason why this scheme wouldn’t work but keeps getting interrupted. The gang wait for the trolley guys at the mall
Read moreNow that the pilot has come and gone and the premise has been established, the show can now focus on its main story arc—the mystery of Jack’s death. The episode kicks off with Jack’s memorial service, where Rusty is drinking too much and Paige comforts Jessie. When Brian and Kath go home the press are waiting for them and Brian
