How did you feel about Paige when she was first introduced?
It took me awhile. I finally accepted her as a new sister and not just a replacement.

the main issue with RM is her voice, aggravated by the way her lines are written for her, there is this continual rising inflection of facetiousness and impatience, or something...it's an issue with HMC, too, but not as bad as it is with Rose/Paige..
shareSeeing as I started watching the show when Paige was Charmed One number 3 and not Prue, not long at all.
shareI did like her from the beginning. She was a fresh character, different from the girls. I still missed Prue A LOT, but it's more that I miss the way the show was with Prue compared to Paige. Paige's only really good season was S4, while all of Prue's seasons are good
shareI hated her at first - hating the way she was shoved in our faces the way Billie would be in Season Eight, but as I grew to dislike Piper and Phoebe more and more throughout Season Four, I liked Paige more and more. Unfortunately I grew to dislike *her* during Season Five while liking Piper. Then in Season Six I didn't like any of them.
shareHow I felt? I thought OMG, this one is going to be my favorite sister and she was since the very beginning of season 4. To that moment, I didn't really had a favorite sister, but Paige immediately became one for me.
You can't cheat Dheath, unless you're not Sidney, Gale and Dewey... :)
I liked her from the start (I knew her from the movie "Scream"), but I really missed Prue.
shareI never did. She went from childish to annoying quickly. My first annoyance with her was stealing the book and using it for personal gain despite not really wanting anything to do with her newfound sisters. Then she became annoying when she started to dislike Cole and I am fairly convinced it was before she had a legit reason to when he was taken over by the source.
shareYes Paige's instant dislike for Cole where there was no reason did annoy me as well. I think they wanted to repeat the whole Prue/Cole mess with her not trusting him.
shareAnd I couldn't blame her for that one bit. How is she supposed to like a demon? And I liked her even more when she realized that he was now evil, even if she didn't realize it was because he was influenced by the powers of the Source.
shareNot Rose McGowan's fault, but my issue is with the very existence of Paige.
Kill off a sister, just replace her with a total stranger. Really, writers? Ridiculous concept. But hey, she has a different personality than Prue so it's OK. Give me a break!
After Prue died, the show should have been about Piper and Phoebe and how they navigate this new world without their sister around. You don't just add a new personality to take the place of someone who died. Yeah, no more power of three, but these are supposed to be the most powerful witches ever--they'd figure out a way to get by.
