Season 1

From Charmed

Season 1, Starring: Holly Marie Combs as Piper, Shannen Doherty as Prue, and Alyssa Milano as Phoebe

The discovery that they are descendants of a long line of witches finds three sisters battling demons and warlocks - and occasionally each other. When the beautiful Halliwell sisters inherit a house from their grandmother and discover a secret "Book of Shadows," they learn that they each have a unique power. The strong-willed, controlling Prue can move objects, reserved, sarcastic Piper is able to freeze time, and the uninhibited, free-spirited Phoebe sees the future. Individually, each is strong but it is only by putting aside their differences and banding together as the "Power of Three" that they will be able to protect the innocent and vanquish evil. Each exciting episode in this layered series is a supernatural adventure brewing with suspense and humor.
