Trivia
There are 3 generations of `P` names in the Halliwell Line. Penny, Patty, Prue, Piper, Phoebe & Paige. Wyatt was suppose to be a girl `Melinda` as there had always been girls.
Billie is the only witch (apart from Wyatt) who has not died in the course of the show.
During the course of the show the sisters drove the following vehicles: Prue drove a Mazda Miata and later a BMW SUV, Piper drove a Jeep Cherokee, Phoebe drove a Mini Cooper and Paige drove a Volkswagen Beetle.
The first musical guest at P3 was Dishwalla and the last was Liz Phair.
In "The Power of Three Blondes," the surname of Mabel (Jennifer Sky), Mitzy (Jenny McCarthy) and Margo (Melody Perkins), was originally Spellman. When it was pointed out that it was also the last name of Melissa Joan Hart`s character on "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch" (1996), it was changed to Stillman.
As of January 2006, this became the longest running TV-series with female leads on television.
"Vaya Con Leos" was Rose McGowan`s 100th Episode
According to Aaron Spelling, the show was renewed for a full season of 22 episodes after only two episodes had aired.
In the first season, Prue is employed at an auction house called Bucklands. The Bucklands, Raymond and Rosemary, were considered to be the first people to bring the religion of Wicca to North America.
The show`s popularity inspired toy company SOTA Toys to create 6.5" action figures of the characters: Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Belthazor which come with interlocking attic walls and a miniature Book of Shadows. Originally an alternate toy of the Prue character was to be made, but actress Shannen Doherty declined to the offer to have her likeness made into a Charmed doll.
The make-up design for the demon Belthazor was based on the same make-up style used for the character of Darth Maul in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999).
During hiatus between seasons two and three, producers discussed possible storylines for season three. Executive Producer `Brad Kern` wanted to bring in a season long love interest for the Phoebe character who started out bad but becomes good. Fellow Executive Producer and show creator Constance M. Burge was against the idea as the character Piper already had a convoluted season long relationship storyline and she wanted to focus back to the sisterly dynamic of the show. After realizing that she wasn`t going to win the debate, Burge left the series and full production reigns fell to Kern.
During the first few seasons when Constance M. Burge was Executive Producer the series had more focus on the girl`s sisterly ties and discovering their witchly heritage. That changed when the show`s reigns were handed over to Producer `Brad Kern` and the focus shifted more to vampy outfits and consistent relationship issues.
Until the appearance of Chris Perry in the fifth season finale episode "Oh My Goddess", the only male witches shown on the series have all been children.
Alyssa Milano liked the drawings made for The Book Of Shadows so much that she had the artist paint murals on her walls at home.
The Book Of Shadows is almost entirely hand-painted.
The actress with the most Charmed Fan Mail is actually not one of the main stars of the show. Actress Finola Hughes who plays Prue, Piper, Phoebe and Paige`s mother receives the most fan mail from Charmed series viewers.
The Book Of Shadows weighs 9 pounds, 6 ounces and is the most valuable thing on set.
The character Phoebe didn`t own a car of her own until season five. Before then she either rode her bike, used public transport, or had to ask her sisters for transportation.
Prue and Phoebe`s past lives are the only witches in the line not to receive Warren powers. Phoebe had pyrokinesis (the ability to create fire) and Prue had cryokinesis (the ability to generate ice). Similarly, Paige`s past life could control the elements although we only saw her control wind and fire.
Phoebe`s empathy power was introduced because the writers were planning to write out her levitation power and thought she would need another active power.
Telekinesis is the most common power in the Halliwell line. Carriers include Melinda Warren, Prue, Penny, Chris, Wyatt, Paige and the granddaughter from `Forever Charmed`. Piper`s freezing power has only recurred in her mother (apart from Melinda Warren) and Phoebe is the only witch that we know of (apart from Melinda Warren) to receive the premonitions power. Although once in season three, Patty Halliwell spoke of having a premonition the day that Phoebe was born.
"Charmed and Dangerous" was originally meant to be the fourth season finale, with the following story lines used for the fifth season and "Long Live the Queen" was to be the 100th episode.
Holly Marie Combs and Alyssa Milano are the only actresses to have appeared in every episode, of every season, in the 8 seasons of "Charmed".
Although he was only a regular in one season, Drew Fuller appeared in four seasons of Charmed.
Brian Krause was written off the show temporarily due to budget cuts.
Beginning with season seven, the Charmed set moved from its previously smaller Canoga Park, California studio lot to the more grand scale Paramount Studios lot.
`Brian Krause` who plays Leo Wyatt, Julian McMahon who played Cole Turner, and Kerr Smith, who appeared in season seven as Agent Kyle Brody, have all auditioned for the role of Inspector Andy Trudeau, who was a character played by actor Ted King in season one.
In June 2001, Executive Producer, Aaron Spelling announced after several auditions and many considered actresses (including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Brown, Tiffani Thiessen, Soleil Moon Frye, Susan Ward and Eliza Dushku) that Rose McGowan had won the role of Paige Matthews, the long-lost, baby half-sister of Prue, Piper and Phoebe.
Holly Marie Combs married an ex-Charmed key grip, David Dohono. They met on the set.
In one episode, Belthazor says "I find your lack of faith disturbing." This is a quote from Star Wars (1977), originally said by Darth Vader
The house used for the exterior shots of the "Manor" is located at 1329 Carroll Ave in the Echo Park Section of Los Angeles.
The opening theme, "How Soon is Now" is a cover by Love Spit Love of a song by `80s British band The Smiths. It originally appeared in The Craft (1996), also about witches.
