"I slept with a Halliwell?!" would have been a much more horrifying watchbait title

Love to think Phoebe went to Tim's funeral, a largely symbolic ceremony as his body was atomized by Piper, and just does her baby voice or an ad for her column and everyone cries and cheers ans applauds her cuz Producer power!

The announcer who said "I slept with a zombie" brought back memories of watching upcoming shows for the CW.

I think the only reason they were trying to turn the Charmed ones into selfless angels was because they thought the show was getting canceled and it was their last chance to try and make Phoebe, Paige and Piper redeemable lmfao

It wasn't actually getting cancelled, the show runners wanted to end the show in season 7 but were forced to make season 8 by the network. That's why the quality of the show took an even deeper dive in the last season, nobody involved wanted to do it.

It was a real missed opportunity not getting the doctor from season 2 as Piper's guilt trip zombie. One positive I'll grant this episode is that the disintegration effect for the undead innocents actually doesn't suck. 90% of the time a demon or warlock is vanquished, it just kinda bursts into flames into nothing and it looks terrible because it makes them look like they're made out of air. Here you can actually see the body break apart. It's as if they thought the series was gonna end so they didn't totally laze out with the effects this time.

Alison is spoiling us with all of this gold content.

I agree entirely.

Zombie Davidson (upon being resurrected from the dead): "At last! I will have my vengeance on Prue for what she has done to me!" Zankou: "Go attack Phoebe. Remember, she lied to you about Cole"' Zombie Davidson: "Prue is the one responsible for my death! I seek retribution!" Zankou (talking slowly and deliberately): "Nnnnnnooooo...You...are...to...go...after...Phoe-be". Zombie Davidson: "Wasn't she pounding behind locked doors, trying to get in? Prue was right there when those warlocks attacked me, she could have saved me but did nothing! Now she shall suffer!" Zankou (exasperated): "Listen, nimrod, if you keep talking about Prue, the Ultimate Power - aka Brad Kern - will see to it you will never receive any residuals from your brief appearances on the show" Zombie Davidson (after a long pause): "Phoebe shall feel my wrath!"

Thank you!!

Charmed fans eating good with all this content Allison dropped this weekend 🤣

I'm positive at this point for the advertising, they just didn't care anymore. They knew that the show was ending and just wanted to do whatever they thought would get people to watch, even if it meant lying and making up what the episode was about.

My carman is Allison for planting the idea in my mind of a Xanku-Cole ship

When it comes to Piper, I never understood why they didn't bring back Doctor Williamson from Season 2's Awakened (the Ninja toy episode you reviewed) since he died in the episode of that same season called Astral Monkey, which featured an admittedly well done ending where Piper cries over the loss of him, because they couldn't save him from being corrupted by having their powers. It was actually one of the rare times Piper showed genuine emotion and was argubly one of her best moments in the show, for an episode all about bringing up past events, the fact that was forgotten over two people we never see baffled me. As usual Phoebe is the Queen Margoyle for me simply because of that scene where she flirts with a guy, he dies and all she does is make his death about herself. Even in death she finds a way to punish those evil men! Also can I say Allison, I love how the sisters look in that image, it captures their faces so well. Phoebe's apathy and Piper's evil blank stare are SO on point! LOL

"The DNA test came back... and you're not the mother!" "Yeah! Suck it zombie kid!"

Wendigo Episode: Phoebe is able to try to teach Piper to change a tire and is straight up shaking her head at how clueless her sister is at a basic life skill including a valid scoff at the idea of using a wooden spoon. Later learns martial arts because of a basic survival instinct. Season Seven: Phoebe changing a tire? Phoebe protecting herself instead of screaming for Piper? No, she has a column to write. She can't save innocents with tire changing and self defence. And I'm totally being that person: but the whitelighter story Paige has actually fits the lore (I know, I'm surprised too). Whitelighters have witches and future whitelighters as charges and are supposed to help guide them. Potential whitelighters have to stay on a path to earn their wings and if they die too soon they don't become one for some reason. Paige had a witch charge with super speed in this season too. They ALMOST kept whitelighters continuity, but Paige couldn't sense/feel the pain of her charge despite Leo being able to do this for charges who aren't even his own in the episode with the Warlock who wanted to wipe out the Elders. In hindsight, maybe Ames was just an antihero who was willing to kill witches to get rid of the dick-tators that be.

Sweet, a charmed double feature

The anticlimatic line you guys are remembering was from Charmed. It is a recycled line from the melty-faced Source, then Zanku and I think another villain said it. As you said, Charmed is nothing but recycle, recycle, recycle.

He did defeat the Charmed Ones rather easily.

I find it kind of ironic that the WB used the "I slept with a zombie" line to reference one of the few men Phoebe encountered but did not sleep with. Seriously, they had plenty of choices for a line like that but this is who they use it on? Given how many times a demon impersonates one or more of the sisters over the years, I'm surprised they never came up with a code word to test each other, something only the real sisters would know. Or even just ask about a specific instance from years ago that demons wouldn't know about. This was season 7 and the only time I can remember something similar is Piper asking Phoebe what her middle name is. I don't remember the episode but Phoebe replies "surly" and Piper accepts that. Leo lost his powers in The Seven Year Witch, so it would have had to be one of the boys or Paige who orbed them there and back.

"Thanks Tim-Bama! Now go to Hell with Cole!"-Piper

A season 7 episode? Oh boy, here we go!

I just finished watching your Charmed Reboot S1 analysis, so listening to this right after is interesting! And yeah, I remember that promo. Takes me back...

Phoebe: How do I know you're not an evil shapeshifter? Piper: I'm not a shapeshifter

Omg thought my eyes were playing tricks on me when I saw this!!!!!!! 😂😂😂 thanks Allison and Phelan! Love you all!!!

When this episode aired at the time i was expecting Prue resurrecting from the white coffin, because it was similar to the one they used in the first episode of season 4 biggest delulu

girl you're spoiling us! ❤

Zanku very much!

and the zombie was slept with mwehehehehe

...Zankou, Honey. If the book of Shadows didn't weaken despite being in the hands of the most selfish witches for years. Making the Charmed Ones slightly sad isn't going to weaken it.

Greetings again from the beautiful island of Mallorca

If they couldn't get Prue to resurrect (for obvious reasons), Andy would have been the next logical choice. He was like a brother to Piper and Phoebe; they would have been emotionally devastated if he was resurrected as a zombie. Darryl too. For Paige, resurrecting one of her parents would have been brutal for her.

Apparently there was a Charmed podcast called House of Halliwell with Combs, Krause and Fuller that covered the first two seasons of the original series.

Hmm... it's like Phoebe is such a self-centered a-hole that they have to dig into Prue's trash to give her any relevance. Phoebe: Hmmmmmm.... yeah you guys remember when Prue was always busy working at Buckland and that time that everyone liked of her crying in the basement from being an empath? Well, now it's gonna be me!!! Prue, who? I even get her lost innocents, I called first on it, me the great Phoe-me!

51:35 Phelan channeling Piper here is the best part 😂

New Charmed conspiracy theory: Sweet season 1 Piper was really Zankou Piper. The real Piper stayed a cranky Wendigo with a heart of ice.

Small claw marks on someone's face can easily cause their death if you use reverse psychology on them.

given Pheobe's job you might say she cannot handle being yesterdays news

Phoebe's response to Tim reminds me of a Kids in the Hall skit where a woman's marriages keep getting ruined by increasingly strange reasons, including her new husband gettig shot the moment hey exit the chapel, and her just reacting with annoyance.

it's kind of funny how in later seasons when demons impersonte the charmed ones it's often to kill other demons. they're better at being the charmed ones by pretending to be them than the actual charmed ones. They'd rather complain about dates, husbands, work, and more. honestly still makes me think why didn't they just give up their powers in the season 4 finale. i mean when dc super heroes flash, supergirl, even clark in smallille saved more people without the cape. the charmed ones went from being heroes to villains.

I have never and will never watch Charmed (or Baywatch for that matter) but i will inhale every one of these episodes

Charges can be both future whitelighers and witches. They protect future whitelighers so that they can do whatever good deed that eventually earns them their wings because every single supernatural has to have a destiny in later seasons. I think in the earlier seasons they tried and gave up on the idea that whitelighters were also supposed to help people being targeted by darklighters but I could be wrong about that.

Allison sometimes I can't stop laughing I start crying, your commentary and inside jokes are just chefs kiss. Now I know you mainly cover bad shows, but like a Buffy is a mess kinda content would be so much fun.

Agreed! I want to scream when i see this in my car on my lunch hour, but ill probably get in trouble.

To be fair, the Whitelighter thing makes sense, and I'm pretty sure was established early on in the show. People like Joanna will become WLs when they die, IF they live long enough to do whatever good thing they're destined to do. So WLs are supposed to protect/guide potential WLs until that happens. Since Joanna died "early," without accomplishing whatever good deeds she was meant to do with her life, she can't become a WL. It would be like if Leo died before saving people in WW2. Anyway, Piper for Margoyle. At least Phoebe half-understands the concept of compassion in this episode.

Thanks for this amazingly funny episode. Yeah... season 7 was wild. Margoyle: The crypt keeper. The only ability You have and carry around since the crusades and earlier relies on a upper level demon helping You. And then Your old friend just kills You because... reasons. That's plain stupid. Carman: The book of Shadows. It has finally been rescued from the claws of the three wicked witches xD

Are you ok ??? this is a lot of charmed lately. It's bad for the brain,, lmao , great video thanks

I took a break to listening to Allison's lastest Charmed Retrospective (Already a classic, i must add) to hear how Horrible Confrontation with your failures translated to a I slept with a zombie?!. And as always with Charmed, They were no answers.

yasss!! Let me just conjure some skinny margs to sip through this..

i'm here for the evil charmed ones voices.

Weekend at Timmy's would have been an awesome alternate episode

you know phoebe going to get the morgue to get a premonition just made me remember the old show tru calling. where tru had similar psychic powers but she just relived days. probably not a reference but made me think of it. also realized we could have brought back dr. griffiths. piper died originally and when time rewind they lost prue and dr. griffiths. and it could bring back the guilt of losing prue without having prue. and zankou could threaten for history repeat itself and maybe try to kill paige. and that could have made piper and phoebe break a little.

Yay! What a charming Sunday this is 😜

Great video as always, where can I go to vote, for the next episode of Charmed for you to review?

so im rewatching the two part episode where they become gods. and it gave me a idea for the series they should went with full swing. leo actually becoming the final threat and problem for the sisters. when they hear about the power of the gods and declaring themselves as them could come at the risk of losing theyre humanity. chris tells them they didnt do that in his time and still handled the problem. and when leo finally shows up to encourage them like they beg all episode. Paige right away says lets do that for the power buff and we'll crush it. and LEO, promises HE knows them BEST. and they SURELY could NEVER EVER. become evil? and then season 7 he does get super sussy and joins avatars and i think that shouldve been something where he died doing something right in the end and piper saying goodbye to that chapter of her life and moving on to something new.

Don't do it zombie, it ain't worth it!

Say what you want about charmed demons but they happen to be the most considerate, patient and agreeable demons you'd ever want to fight, they do what they are needing to do and with no concern for their own life wait around to be killed/vanquished while the sisters get their act together. The first demon even went further and ended himself for no reason other than to make Phoebe not look so pathetic and weak. Speaking of which isn't she supposed to be physic with her premonitions and yet here she is helpless, two other characters gain her power this season and both instantly make better use of something she has had seven years to work with.

Sorry, you're busy, my bad. Thanks again.

Yes! 2 crazy half seasons; but still better than season 6 or season 8. Yes, the promos are misleading :)

*Zanku blow up the Cryptkeeper* Paige: Wait, Why did you do that, Zanku? Zanku: I....Why i did that, Zombie Davidson ?! Zombie Davidson: (Checking the script)They got us, But all accounts that don't make sense, you were supposed to be best bud....

Do you think that San Francisco's Central Police Station has an entire room dedicated to cold case where the Halliwell were involved or heavily suspected to be involved ?

Not what u say by Imogen Heap I love tht song Hide and seek

Also. I finally watched the podcast Shannen and Holly did talking about how that went. I feel for both of them and I hate phoebe more then I ever thought possible. She's a coward. And I look at Holly's character so differently now having this context and Shannon's really. She did say which I think would've been pretty interesting. In retrospect if she could do over her death scene. She said she would've had piper possessed by something and blew up her sister and leave her to deal with that event. Which would've been wild. But yeah um. I can understand piper coming off super unlikable. Holly really got me with how she was getting emotional over the whole thing. I don't think I can see piper as a evil hag anymore lol more like a forced hag

I never realized how awful the sisters were until I started watching Charmed Rewind. Truely heinous people.

@rickiwear853 They mentioned Prue in the series finale and the season 7 finale. In season 7, it's because they use astral projection and they thank Prue for teaching it to Leo before she died. In Season 8 finale, the mother from the past asks where Prue is.

Wait. You bought the blu-rays?
