What is even happening?

Thank you, Beverly. The Doherty stuff was the only thing I knew. I didn't realize her character was the oldest sister though. I think I thought Holly Marie Combs' character was. So Rose McGowan was the half-sister, right?

And then there was this whole long hot period of partial seasons where Milano's character was in love with and seduced to the dark side by Nip 'n' Tuck's Julian McMahon...

Well, who hasn't been there.

I couldn't record it last night because there were too many conflicts. Is it worth tracking down?

Well, Doherty was the oldest sister for the first three seasons and Coombs was for the next 5, so. At least, that's how it seemed to be written to me, like they just shifted those character qualities over. Irritated me.

Haven't watched the new one yet, but The CW app/website is pretty ok for watching, sj.

-t yeah that's what I usually do when I miss an episode on the CW. Time to charge my iPad.

I enjoyed it, but I like Madeleine Mantock, so that could be why. Also, my guys were flipping back and forth between the Sox and Pats' games. I also knew if I watched any more politics I was going to lose my mind.

So I enjoyed it, but I was highly motivated to enjoy it. I was doing some work while it was on. I noticed I enjoyed it, because when I'd get involved in the work, I'd pause the show (which I don't usually bother with, if I just have the TV on for background noise).

The most I've seen of the original version of Charmed is when I happen to put TNT on a little early to catch a Supernatural rerun.

I'm not encumbered by either a love or hatred of the old series, so I didn't have any expectations. I don't know how old Charmed fans would feel about it.

It felt a little like SPN to me. Unlike the Winchesters, the sisters weren't raised in the life, but their entree into it is heavily based on their mother's supernatural death. *

They've made a concerted effort to make it more diverse though, which I did appreciate. Too many genre shows only do that with the weekly guest stars, and those character so often get killed off.

I'll probably watch again.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Did people watch the latest Doctor Who ep?

Only the first minute or two - I'm hoping to fit it in tonight.

We did.

Dear Oliver, you made a deal with the DA and didn't think to negotiate protective custody for yourself in prison?

They replaced boring flashbacks with boring flash forwards.
