Genre: TELEVISIONAmazon.com: Charmed: The Complete First Season recaptures a period when television's WB network was particularly keen on series about the supernatural and specially powered characters. The original home of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and future launch pad for Angel and Smallville, the WB debuted Charmed in 1998 with many of the same intriguing ironies that made those other shows click. Specifically, the greater a character's powers, the more vulnerable he or she becomes; the more superhuman, the more painfully obvious one's lonely, fragile humanity. The Halliwells, a trio of witch heroines and siblings at the center of Charmed, is a case in point. Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) returns to her San Francisco family home after losing her job, and moves in with her older sisters Prue (Shannen Doherty) and Piper (Holly Marie Combs). On her first night back, Phoebe finds the Book of Shadows in the attic and recites a spell giving all three women unique powers they were always meant to have: Prue suddenly has the gift of telekinesis, Piper can make time stand still, and Phoebe can see into the future. All well and good, but along with those extraordinary abilities is a new awareness of dark forces in the world from which mortals need protection. In some cases, those forces have been plotting a long time to steal the Halliwell's magical legacy once they awakened to it--and now they will never let up. Evil warlocks, demons, ancient curses, Grimlocks, and Wendigos (the last two are best left explained by their respective episodes), however, are only half the battle on this sexy dramedy, in which more ordinary matters of emotional and real-world survival also preoccupy the Halliwells. An important ally, Inspector Andy Trudeau (Ted King), is Prue's ex-lover, a delicate detail that mixes pain with duty as the couple rekindles their troubled relationship while solving otherworldly crimes. In "Dead Man Dating," Piper falls for the ghost of a murdered man who needs help, and later competes with Phoebe for the attention of a handyman, Leo (Brian Krause). Jobs and money are always an issue, too. At one time or another, Phoebe works as a psychic, Piper as a caterer, and Prue finds a job at an auction house. As with Buffy, the engine of Charmed is the seamless, sometimes-comic, sometimes-tender way in which all these dynamics in the magic and non-magic worlds blend together, presenting young adult challenges that are both unique and somehow terribly familiar. It is particularly fun to watch this series grow, deepen, and experiment during its first year. The season's true highlight is probably "That 70s Episode," in which the Halliwells go back in time to meet their younger selves. --Tom Keogh Customer Reviews: Rating:

love this show, disappointing DVDs though
While I give this show five stars overall, I gave this season a lower rating because it is not my favorite, and I am continually disappointed everytime I watch the DVDs.
As a long-time Charmed fanatic, I eagerly awaited the release of the DVDs, seeing as how my video tapes were getting a bit worn out. Naturally I got the DVDs almost as soon as they were released, receiving them as a birthday present, and while I was beyond excited that I finally had them, I was very disappointed when I saw that they had no extras whatsoever. On each individual disk, the screen immediately goes to the list of episodes, and after clicking on a particular episode title, it immediately goes to the episode, not even giving you a list of options, such as subtitles, scene selection...etc.
Anyway, as for this particular season itself, I would have to say its not my favorite. Although I love all the first three seasons best, seeing as how Prue (played by Shannen Doherty) is in them, I would place this season as second best. Better than season two as a whole, but definitely not as good as season three.
Although Prue is, and will always be my favorite character, I could see why some people would dislike her, atleast in this season. She's very bitchy, stubborn, and uptight, and becomes much more likeable in seasons two and three.
The best thing about this season is the relationship between Prue and Andy, and it was unfortunate that he wasn't able to make it to season two. I personally thought they could have dragged out their relationship a lot longer!
But don't get me wrong, if you haven't seen this show, I still definitely recommend that you watch this season, but don't base your entire opinion on it because I don't believe that it shows charmed at its best, as season three does. Rating:

Seacon One
Well this was the first of the charmed season sadly it was the most boring of them all. Prue which was the boss was over done as a character. No big sister is really like that bossy and bitchy. Phoebe was great as always full of spirit, the only one that kept things interesting. piper, which was the middle sister, she my second favorite. She was very sweet and her power was probably the coolest. Rating:

Charmed, Season 1, Yahoo!!
Finally a T.V. show about witches and magic! I am so glad Aaron Spelling took a chance! I love, love, love Charmed. Season 1 is great because it is the beginning, the beginning of sister's becoming a family and the beginning of their Charmed destiny. The very first episode had me hooked. I am bias though, I am a huge Shannen Doherty fan. Even though she is such a bee-otch to work with I love her character Prue. I love all the characters.
My favorite episodes include, Dead Man Dating, a great episode about family and believing in family superstitions and Piper is just great in this episode. I love The Truth Is Out There and It Hurts!! This episode is a lot of fun after Prue casts a truth spell to find out if Andy would accept her as a witch! It affects all the sisters and is just fun to hear them tell people what they think! I loved Andy too, he was the best guy for Prue, anyway, I also love Leo, this episode is so exciting because Piper finally gets the courage to ask Leo what he thinks of her! Then there is That 70's Episode where they go back in time to warn their mother, Patty about a warlock who steals all their powers. Very special and emotional to see them interact with Patty and Grams. I love The Wendigo also, first episode that kind of scared me! Dream Sorcerer is also a creepy one. The Witch is back another family oriented episode where they learn of their ancestor Melinda Warren. Secrets and Guys is another good episode, Phoebe sees Leo floating in mid air trying to fix a chandelier and so now his cover is busted. When Phoebe tries to tell Piper and Prue they laugh at her and tell her what a great imagination she has! Very funny!! Love Hurts another one of my favorites, Piper finally learns Leo's true calling, he is their Whitelighter and is struck by an arrow from a Dark Lighter and now he is dieing. Piper switches their powers so she can try and heal Leo...love it! The finale is very sad Deja Vu All Over Again, Phoebe has a premonition of Andy being killed by a demon....and they figure out they keep reliving the same day over and over until the demon gets what he wants. I really liked Andy, even after he found out that they were witches (Blind Sided, great, great episode) he was just so awesome about everything and did whatever he could to protect Prue and their secret. Season 1 is a must buy, actually they all are...The Power of Three will set you free!!
