The Halliwell sisters discover that they are descendants of a long line of witches when they inherit a house from their grandmother and find the family's Book of Shadows.

The strong-willed Prudence "Prue" Halliwell (Shannen Doherty) can mentally move objects with her mind via her eyes and hands, reserved Piper Halliwell (Holly Marie Combs) is able to temporarily freeze time, and the uninhibited Phoebe Halliwell (Alyssa Milano) has the mental power of premonition. Together they have the "Power of Three", which they must use to fight demons and warlocks, and protect the innocent. Episodes. <onlyinclude></onlyinclude> Reception. "Charmed" received mixed reviews for its first episode. "The Hollywood Reporter"s Barry Garron wrote that this show is "Funny, Spooky, and Wonderfully  Entertaining". David Bianculi of the "New York Daily News" wrote that it had room to grow, "As Buster Poindexter once sang, they're hot, hot, hot...If Charmed gets more savvy, scary and sexy as weeks go on, and it's a good bet it will, falling under its spell will be an easy thing to do." Howard Rosenberg of the "Los Angeles Times" disagreed with Bianculi and Garron, "There's no magic, black or otherwise, in The WB's Charmed, a limp drama about three sisters who discover they are witches."
