I am really enjoying Season 5!


In my rewatch I am up to season five and loving it!.

Unfortunately on my second chronological re-watch, season 5 got worst for me. Episodes which I enjoyed before I didn't this time around. The constant Cole blame and abuse, celebrity Phoebe, unemployed Paige making weird faces, the horrible fashion and hairstyles, Leo's annoying presence and his marital problems with Piper, the absence of sisterhood focus stories, and just plain crappy writing were just more obvious this time around.

While there were particular scenes I liked even in the worst episodes, the only overall good episodes this time around for me were:

-The Eyes Have It
-The Day the Magic Died
-Baby's First Demon
-Sense and Sense Ability

While I didn't enjoy the season 5 finale with the sisters turning into Goddesses and acting like complete clueless morons the first time, this time surprisingly, the hate wasn't so strong. And I found Chris also less annoying.


Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I'm possible.

Season 5 is ny favourite

I love A witch in time. It's both innocent and sister focused. And shows off Piper and Phoebe's relationship which i think gets pretty lost in the later seasons.

Season 5 is my favorite! It has some of the best episodes in the series. Now it has a few of the worst as well (What were they thinking with Lucky Charmed?) but overall it's awesome!

I call those filler episodes. When you look at all the episodes its like they wrote up untill Cole was defeated and Wyatt was born then they ran out of enough episodes. After Babies First demon There was Cat House and Sense and Sense Ability but everything else seemed like filler to get to the 23 or 24 episodes required for the season.

I enjoy Season Five as long as I skip anything to do with Cole. I pretend he stayed dead in Season Four where he belonged with the other episodes I don't like once he became the Source. I even enjoy the so-called filler-episodes - I get a kick out of them. After the horrible unCharmedlike darkness of S4, it's fun to have the lightness of S5 - which it is if you take out Cole.

Only ones I don't like are the two 'Oh, My Goddess!" ones - they belong in Season Six with the other episodes I don't like.

It's the infamous "Different Strokes for different folks."
