Season eight of Charmed brings the story of the Halliwell
sisters to a satisfying conclusion, but not without a lot of
bumps on the road for the witchy trio. The season begins with
Paige (Rose McGowan), Piper (Holly Marie Combs), and Phoebe
(Alyssa Milano)--exhausted after years of magical responsibility
for protecting the mortal world and fighting off
demons--pretending to be dead and hiding behind new appearances.
(The characters, when seen in mirrored reflections or through the
eyes of others, are played by different actresses.) The gambit
works smoothly for awhile, until each of the sisters begins
missing aspects of her old life and feeling a sense of
responsibility for protecting the innocent. Meanwhile, a gaggle
of restless, young demons suspect that the Halliwells arent
really dead at all, and are out to prove it. While fending off
new demonic plots to take over the sisters San Francisco home
and seize control of a school of magic, Piper and Phoebes
her, Victor (James Read), takes care of Piper and Leos kids
at the near cost of his own life. Also, Phoebe falls for a
sculptor (Jason Lewis) early in the season and Cupid (Victor
Webster) himself later on; Paige considers a career in law
; and a newcomer arrives on the scene: Billie (Kaley
Cuoco), a young witch with a flashy, Buffy-like style as
demon-slayer. Billies story provides a narrative back to
Charmed: The Final Season. Powerful but untutored, Billie
reluctantly becomes a protégé of Paige, learning the ropes of
witchcraft just as Paige did a couple of seasons back. The
problem is that Billie makes a well-intentioned mess of a number
of situations (at one point, she draws the attention of a
Homeland Security agent to her powers), and then goes rogue when
her long-lost sister shows up and turns Billie against the
Halliwells. The latter half of the season slowly draws to a
showdown between the two sets of siblings, but as always, there
are lot of storylines with plenty of other issues and action to
worry about. Longtime Charmed fans will certainly enjoy the
series finale, an imaginative, time-travel tale in which some of
the main characters meet different versions of themselves, and we
all get a peek into what the future holds in store for the
Halliwells as individual women. --Tom Keogh
