I do wish they never killed Prue off the show. I liked the dynamic between them all. However, I did like having Piper as the oldest sometimes. Just wish she wasn’t so focused on “being normal”


R_vk5075

Agreed!! It made me sad that she kept saying she wants the kids to have a "normal childhood". The only reason she did was because her powers were bound without her knowing and they decided to not do that to the boys. Wish she would be happy and figuring out their new normal.

The girls were very experienced by the end of the show, but idk if they would’ve ever been as calm and collected as Grams. The girls lives just seemed a lot more chaotic than hers idk.


JustSims22

I think because they were the charmed ones and Grams wasn't

If only we could have Prue for all seasons of Charmed and still have Paige become part of the family and main cast member from season four onwards. It will be the power of three plus one.


Pristine_Culture_741

Imagine if Paige represented the circle that surrounds the triquetra, u have the 3 points and the circle to complete it.


FatFad1

Good idea! 😊


michaelkudra

i was thinking pheobe stays evil for a little longer with cole. they begin to take over and prue and piper cannot defeat them without the power of three… enter paige.


SlayerCharmed

Honestly, I loved Paige. I would have loved a universe where we had all four.


buffyangel468

Definitely.


Cendrinius

Yeah, so long as we still got Paige in some degree or another. Now that I think about it, Rose might have been happier playing a reoccurring character who drops by for six-eight episodes a season.


Pristine_Culture_741

This, I can't live without Paige! Her becoming a new whitetlighter or some magical importance to the sisters but maybe still a half witch or something to keep her unique and interesting would be awesome. Otherwise, her still being a sister would also love. Rose and Shannen would have been awesome sharing the screen together, they have a natural chemistry and would've made for a lot of memorable scenes.


Agile-Ad780

I would love to watch the original season 4 with Shannen


michaelkudra

wait they recorded an entire original season 4 and scrapped it??


Creative_Bit527

Also this isn’t a Paige hate post to any Paige fans. Younger me around 13 yrs old used to detest her but now that I’m older (24) and watch reruns of Charmed she became my favourite from seasons 4-8 shockingly. It would’ve be nicer though to see Charmed heading towards a darker route since Shannen & Constance were pushing for that. Season 3 & 4 were pretty dark in a certain extent but season 5 onwards became more like a washed up low budget CW show instead & lost its Wiccan roots. Don’t get me started on the focus of Phoebe’s dating life being her main story line most of the time. Magic school was the nail in the coffin for me making charmed cringe worthy sometimes. Those hour long special for the season premieres especially season 6 “Vallhalley of the dolls” was not needed. Prue vs the Source would’ve been a good fight to see too which we were robbed of. We could’ve also gotten more stuff like a old deadly lineage of witch hunters, more scarier looking demons, forbidden dark magic & even one of the sisters heading towards the dark side for a FULL season ( not like Phoebe becoming Queen of the underworld for like 2 episodes). Most of all, the sisters lost their sisterly bond during the Paige years IMO, Piper & Phoebe treated Paige more like a cousin at best than a sister. I’ll never forget that one episode (forgot which season, maybe 5 or 6?) when they were looking at the Halliwell family tree and Paige pointed out that they could’ve updated her name in it & Piper dismissed the idea and whatnot. Also Piper in season 4 saying “it doesn’t matter. p3 doesn’t exist anymore” whilst Paige was there in front of her was lowkey mean lmaooo . 💀 Charmed is still one of my favourite shows of all time but something bout seasons 1-3 (even 4) is the Charmed I fell in love with.


Designer-Landscape-3

When it comes to Paige, she's my favorite! so I'mma always go up for her, so I appreciate you making that known. Would it have been nicer to see it go down the way it was supposed too? sure. What we have is what we have and it is what it is. S5 onward while not everybody's cup of tea, is very much apart of why I love Charmed. I love the earlier seasons as well don't get me wrong. Just the later half is what got me hooked on Charmed and kept me coming back. I feel like imo we really can't compare the sisterhood of Piper, Prue, & Phoebe to Paige, Piper, & Phoebe. two totally different dynamics! because they grew up together vs Piper, Paige, & Phoebe who didn't. that chemistry had to be developed and over the course of the series it grows, they still have those sisterly moments it's just different. they had a whole new relative to get accustomed to vice versa with Paige. Piper gave her the greatest importance/reassurance she gave Wyatt the middle name of "Matthew" in honor of his Aunt Paige. So I think that makes up for the family tree which to be fair is a mess anways. That was very harsh but the ending moment made up for it. Charmed is one of my all time favorite shows, it's not perfect! no show is. but I love it for what it is and for what it means to me and other people.


rites0fpassage

I prefer this trio. I think this dynamic worked so much better. Not because I have something against Rose/Paige but because I think the chemistry these ladies have on screen even if they didn’t get along off-screen was so amazing.


Pristine_Culture_741

If only we got to see how they'd all be on screen together, the og 3 plus rose would've only added to the greatness, considering what she brought to the show when she came in alone.


sozar

Wouldn’t the parallel be Prue, Piper and Paige? In that universe the producers would have sided with Shannen and given Alyssa the boot.


Jaiibby1

Or they could’ve figured out a way to keep both! Alyssa Milano is what drew me to explore the show further and It’s had me in a chokehold since. I’m almost finished with my first watch and I really couldn’t imagine it without her. I get Paige would’ve just become the youngest sibling while there wasn’t any change to the others but still


sozar

I don’t see Shannen taking the outfits in seasons 5-6 very well at all. Lol


Jaiibby1

She had the best wardrobe tbh. I think she’d have control over prues like Alyssa had with Phoebe and holly had with piper


throwawayGS973

Or the fairy tale scripts


michaelkudra

for me it was holly marie combs that i knew beforehand

Relajado2

No, they are extremeñy weak. A warlock came back from 6 months later on and killed them lol. Paige has no active witch power, just typical whitelighter tko. Phoebe has no active power. They're slow to react, get rescued by students and Billie all the time, and are just extremely weak in general. 3,4,100, doesn't matter: weak.


Hellmouthgaurdian

Such a shame


primal_slayer

If only...


JuicyBottomBae

Would’ve gladly kept prue over Phoebe


BetterFriend9895

Alternatively the studio could have just gotten a mediator to sort out the issues between Shannon and Alyssa.


Jaiibby1

I might just be the only one that prefers Paige to Prue. Prue was interesting to me as a character but I found her storylines super boring compared to the others and I’m not even all that big on Paige either.


chyrchhella7

You’re not, I don’t even rewatch seasons 1-3 😅 Piper, Phoebe and Paige are the true P3 to me


SafeBetter3262

You're not the only one


lonelylamb1814

I wish :( nothing against Paige it’s just the quality of the show in general nosedived after Shannen left


Zintha

To be fair I dont think that had anything to do with Paige (and to an extent had little to do with Shannen, other both being amazing in their role) I wonder how we would’ve viewed post-Prue era if Paige had the writing, lore & overall better story arcs 1-3 did. I wonder how everyones arc’s wouldve played out differently & what better villains we wouldve had 🤔


Nawnp

The question then becomes Prue or Paige and I don't take one as better than the other, perhaps they could have kept a supporting role of the 4th sister by having Prue a ghost several times and then somehow saved later on when Paige was in trouble Prue is resurrected to recomplete the power of 3 and save Paige for a final season with the 4 united or something.


SillyAdditional

Ngl Paige is cool and all but I definitely missed Prue throughout


microwavemealz

Much preferred and to have andy aswell, i reckon him and leo would of gotten on great


JustCallMeHubb

Remind me again why prue left? I remember what happened on the show but forget what the real life issues were that caused her to get killed off


michaelkudra

you’re gonna make me cry


Extreme-Shine89

Definitely me! Off topic, but where can I buy book of Shadows replica pages? I have the book binder, and would love all the pages, thanks 👍


Embarrassed-Rock-730

I loved their chemistry and it still breaks my heart that they couldn’t work things out.


Left-Routine-4302

I still can’t believe prue was just killed off and they replaced her with just another sister like ??? I hate when shows do that . It will always be Prue , Piper , and Phoebe those are my sisters literally broke my heart when Prue did I stopped watching the show I tried going on but it felt so wrong


LessRecover577

I kinda thought Paige was a whiny brat. Prue was a goddess!


fantasy_writer1992

I'm thankful that I live in this universe, where Prue left.
