Out of all the charmed seasons, this is the one. But still you must own them all. The main plot is pheebe growing up and finding love and finally finding one who is her match. But sadly hes on the other side.. Leo has no powers so it causes a few problems demonicaly and emotioally for pipper and him both. Making piper say "if one more thing screws up then the wedding off." prue is struggleing as well with herself in her head. Being the older responcible sister has found her astro planing in her sleep to places where she can be wild and dangerious only her dreams are real and are coming back to bite her in the ass.
