Charmed: Complete Sixth Season Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Season 6 is definately not the average Charmed fans' favorite season but it is definately not the worst of the 8. This season was pretty much up and down, with most of the bad episodes early in the season. There are however, some interesting plot points in this season. With the addition of Chris in the season 5 finale, we get to learn what he is really up to and if he is indeed someone looking out for the sisters or a new big bad.
The breakdown:
1 and 2. Valhalley Of The Dolls Parts 1 and 2 - With Leo missing, the sisters turn into Valkyries in order to save him.
3. Forget Me...Not - Wyatt conjures a dragon and it is loose in the city. The Cleaners also want to erase Wyatt from everyone's memory.
4. The Power Of Three Blondes - 3 blonde sisters want the Charmed One's identies. Pretty fun episode.
5. Love's A Witch - Paige stumbles upon a feud between two magical families and even finds love at the same time.
6. My Three Witches - Chris tries to teach the sisters a lesson.
7. Soul Survivor - Paige tries to save her boss's soul, even at the risk of losing her own.
8. Sword And The City - Piper pulls Excalibur out of its stone and consequences arise.
9. Little Monsters - The sisters become foster parents for a half demon baby, without Chris' approval.
10. Chris-Crossed - Bianca, a assassin from the future, arrives to try to take Chris' powers.
11. Witchstock - Paige is taken back in time where she encounters Grams, who was a hippie.

16. The Courtship Of Wyatt's Father - Piper and Leo are trapped in the ghostly plane, with a darklighter on their tail.
17. Hyde School Reunion - Phoebe reverts back to her troublesome teenage self, as her high school reunion approaches.
18. Spin City - Piper is cocooned by the spider demon and Paige, Phoebe and Leo need to save her.

In Search of History - Salem Witch Trials (History Channel) (A&E DVD Archives) (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This History Channel documentary is a good introductory history to the infamous witch trials that took place in Salem, Massachusetts in 1692. It gives a broad overview of the major events and characters in this tragic episode of fear and suspision in early colonial America.
The Salem Witch saga began in the winter of 1692 with the strange behavior surrounding a number of young girls living in Salem Village, several of whom were living in the household of the controversial village minister Samuel Parris. The girls were given to bizarre fits that the local physician was at a loss to explain except by the actions of witchcraft. Soon accusations were leveled at the minister's Carib Indian slave woman, Tituba, who, under torture, admitted to being a witch in league with the Devil. Before long, hundreds of people from the surrounding countryside were arrested and dragged into court to answer to charges of witchcraft. In the end, 19 people died as a result of the tumultuous trials before public sentiment finally turned against the accusers.
The Salem Witch Trials have loomed large in American history since the time they occurred. There have been many different attempts to explain the causes of the witchcraze that swept Salem, but the debate continues to this very day. This documentary gives a clear and basic understanding of the historical events that took place and serves as a good introduction to this material for anyone interested in this notorious event in American History.

History -- Haunted History : New England / New Orleans Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Since they are all so expensive, was thrilled to get two episodes of this great series on 1 dvd. . .However, much to my dismay, the narrator for these two episodes is not the delightfully spooky John Glover but is instead Michael Dorn of Star Trek fame. . .I'm sorry, but Mr. Dorn's narration just does not do it for me. . .history channel, please release these films they way the were intended and the way you constantly show them in reruns on History International and Biography. . .with John Glover narrating the episodes. I swear every time I watch these, I'm expecting Mr. Dorn to suddenly explain to me that the shields have come down or that his klingon honor has somehow been besmirched. . .Not cool History Channel. . .not cool. . .
