This is an article I had written about a year ago about Charmed fans wanting a Charmed sons spin off. The reason for posting it here is to convince people why we want a Charmed sons spin off.
Hope you like it.
“Hear now the words of the fans...”
“Hear now the words of the witches
the secrets we hid in the night
The oldest of Gods are invoked here
the great work of magic is sought
In this night and in this hour
I call upon the ancient power,
Bring your powers to we sisters three
we want the power, give us the power”
the secrets we hid in the night
The oldest of Gods are invoked here
the great work of magic is sought
In this night and in this hour
I call upon the ancient power,
Bring your powers to we sisters three
we want the power, give us the power”
This was the one rhyme that brought life to the Charmed series in 1998. This spell gave three young women their powers and destiny as witches. Not just any witches, but the very powerful Charmed ones, starring Holly Marie Combs as Piper Halliwell, Alyssa Milano as Phoebe Halliwell, Rose McGowan as Paige Halliwell, Brian Krause as Leo Wyatt and, during the first three seasons of the show, Shannen Doherty as Prue Halliwell.
For years they have been fighting evil and saving the world to fulfil their destiny. Charmed has stolen the hearts of many fans. Especially after Piper (Holly Marie Combs) gave birth to her two sons, Wyatt Matthews Halliwell (Wes Ramsey) and Christopher (Chris) Halliwell (Drew Fuller). Now, after eight entertaining, magical years, the series has come to their end. All the fans are very disappointed because of this and want more. Is there any hope for these fans?
Charmed has its fans all over the world. This show is very popular in the US, Canada, Europe, Great Britain, Australia, India and in many more countries. The number of fans even increased after the season six episode “Chris-crossed”. Six million viewers tuned in to see this episode, for this was the first time that the Halliwell brothers could be seen together as adults. Fans have been hoping to see more of the Charmed sons ever since that episode.
After season six there were only three more episodes where the future Halliwell sons were seen. One of those was the series finale. They travelled to the past to fix their future. After seeing this episode, many more fans are wanting to see a Charmed sons spin off with Wyatt and Chris Halliwell as the main characters. They loved the dynamic between the two brothers and the actors did a great job. The final episode gave us big chances to have a continuation of the Charmed series with the Charmed sons.
In this final episode, “Forever Charmed”, lots of details were seen that could lead to a spin off. For example, the brothers reveal that they are still fighting demons in the future, meaning that there is still evil to be fought and the Charmed legacy has not ended. A spin off would be perfect to let the story continue and of course, to satisfy the fans. There is also an unknown location in this episode where the boys are working together on a potion. That could be their new apartment, their workplace or anything else. The only way to know the real situation of the Charmed sons’ future, is to see it all really happening in a Charmed sons spin off. We got to see a glimpse of the future and are dying to see more.
After seeing the Charmed sons once, some fans have decided to start a campaign at www.thecharmedsons.com, that might help to get a spin off. This campaign is being supported and promoted by the actor Wes Ramsey himself. It has nearly 1800 Charmed fans as members and each day more people from different locations of the world join in the hope of being able to support The Charmed Sons. These fans are very excited about a spin off with Wes Ramsey and Drew Fuller and cannot wait to have new Charmed series with these actors.
The most important thing of course, is the opinion of the actors themselves. Both actors, Wes Ramsey and Drew Fuller, are interested in new series with the Charmed sons. On October 8, 2005 there was a live online chat with Wes Ramsey, who plays adult Wyatt. He has said that he would want to do a Charmed spin off and that it would be one hell of a ride... He has also mentioned the fan campaign several times at the Charmed Convention “Triquetra” in London in September 2006. And he has said that Drew Fuller is interested in a new TV show about Wyatt and Chris as well.
Alyssa Milano (Phoebe) and Rose McGowan (Paige) have both said that they will not do a ninth season for Charmed. So even if Charmed didn’t end, there wouldn’t be a power of three to continue with, which is needed to make the Charmed series even possible. The only way to let the story continue, is with the next generation of the Halliwells, which would be Wyatt (Ramsey) and Chris Halliwell (Fuller). Considering the fact that Holly Marie Combs (Piper) and Brian Krause (Leo) are also interested in going on with the show, it would be nice to see the parents of the Charmed sons appear in a spin off occasionally.
It is the dream of millions of fans to see Wes and Drew doing a Charmed spin off together. Not only the fans, but the actors like the idea as well. Since there are so many details which could lead to a spin off and the Charmed sons have got so much support from all the fans all over the world, there’s no reason not to see a Charmed sons spin off happening. The way I see it, we do have hope...
