Blessed overall Reviews

 

"It’s been almost two years since Charmed left the air. A lot of fans wanted a spin-off featuring the Charmed Ones kids, more importantly one with Piper and Leo’s two sons Wyatt and Chris Halliwell. Well, now we got one. But with an extra character: the boys younger sister Prue; who we were introduced to for just a second in the series finale Forever Charmed. But instead of giving her the name Melinda as the writers of the original Charmed series did, Blessed creator, Rachel, gave her the name Prudence Melinda. She named her that based on the fact that the oldest Charmed sister Prue who died at the end of season 3 was so close to Piper, that it only made sense that Piper would now name her only daughter after her beloved older sister. Blessed has some of the same things that Charmed did. It has the humor that came between the siblings, it has the sibling rivary that sometimes sparked between the sisters and it has the action of the demon hunting and suspense. Not to mention the twists that keep the viewer guessing. But most importantly it also has the sibling bond that the sisters had in the original series. But, in my opinion, you don’t really have to have watched the Charmed series to like Blessed or even understand it. Most things that connect Charmed and Blessed are explained. Take the pilot Something Wicca This Way Comes Again, you find out some of what has happened to the Charmed Ones in the past 23 years. You also learn what has happened with the main characters, Wyatt, Chris and Prue in the past years. They’ve become stronger and have now taken over the demon fighting role from their mother and aunts. After Prue gets a premonition about an innocent she runs into in P3 which Wyatt now owns, they realize that its time to start the fight again, but without exposing the fact that their witches. There’s now a new nemesis that’s trying to destroy the Blessed Children, but he is still unknown to the powerful witches. My favorite part was a tradition that was kept from original Charmed series. The grandfather clock was broken again in another battle prompting Chris to say “The tradition is alive again.” I suggest everyone tuning into this series, whether you watched the original Charmed series or not. I promise you’ll really enjoy it. Especially if you’ve always wanted to see a spin-off featuring Piper and Leo’s grown kids. I give Blessed a 10 out of 10 stars."

 "Humorous, unique, realistic, creative, with much suspense and a plot just awesome. These are the words I just can come up to describe the first episode of your charmed spin-off: Blessed. I just love their interaction between the main characters, Prue, Wyatt and Chris, because it really has the dynamic of a realistic and truthful family. I do also love your dry sense of humor and the completely insane and comic situations that appear on the story. The other thing I like about Blessed, is the way you explain what is happening in the story, helping us to picture the scene, like if we were, indeed, watching the show on TV. That is, definitely, and amazing thing. (...)"

"I enjoyed all the similarities of Charmed, the humour, the interaction between the Blessed Children, it was just great Fave character is Wyatt I like what is shaping up with the little cliffhangers, it just does remind me sooooo much of Charmed, and if you ever stop i'll be just as upset. You may think this is a little too much of an exaggeration for just one episode but i really liked it"
