Imagine if Prue, Piper, and Phoebe had to battle the Rowe Coven (The Warlock equivalent of The Charmed Ones) in Season 3.In this hypothetical, Prue would have never met Brendan Rowe in "When Bad Warlocks Go Good" and he would have joined his brothers to create the evil P3. This battle would take up a portion or maybe all of the Belthazor Arc of season 3, Also Piper would have full control of her Molecular Combustion and Prue would be able to TK in AP Form.
Tell me what you think of this whole hypothetical, and if it would have made a good arc for season 3?
Also tell me who you think would win this battle?

I like it except for Piper having full control of her explosions (it's not molecular combustion - that's what a fire-starter does - it's molecular acceleration, the way her freezing is molecular deceleration - fans always get that wrong) and Prue being able to use her TK in her AP form. Both make them too powerful, making the Power of Three less needed, and Phoebe even less needed than she was in S4-8, even with her extra powers. Anything that takes away from the Power of Three, I don't like because then it's not Charmed. Besides, that way you'd have to make the Rowe brothers just as powerful. BORING!
Now if you did that in S4 but had Phoebe be the one who dies, get rid of the Power of Three by never introducing Paige and just have those two with those acceleration powers going against the Rowe Coven, especially if they were the ones who killed Phoebe, that would work.

I can imagine Prue and Piper going nuts with guilt over Phoebe and trying their hardest to vanquish to Rowe Brothers, I think this would have been a much better arc than Billie and Christy or Gideon  |

Hehehehe, oh, definitely better than those. But would it be better than Phoebe, Queen of the Underworld?

I did love the Queen of the Underworld arc, Phoebe as the Queen of All Evil was just so great! She was actually interesting and I wished that arc lasted a little longer, with Cole's vanquish taking place permanently at the end of season 4 and then the Seer might take power... idk hehe but I think the Rowe Brothers would be at a close second with Queen Phoebe |

Let's just say that the Rowe Brothers would've made a much better Ultimate Power than the Jenkinses - and maybe a better possible spin-off than Billie, The Teenaged Thuperwitch....
As for Phoebe, Queen of the Underworld, it's part of why I would've preferred Shannen Doherty sticking around one more season so Season Four could've concentrated on Phoebe and Cole's story arc before introducing and concentrating on Paige in Season Five, with perhaps Centennial Charmed being when they finally become close enough that they can vanquish whoever the powers of the Source went into *this* time....

I always thought Prue and Brendan were very cute, what do think Piper would think if Prue fell in love with Brendan during all of this. Hehe it might be Queen Prue this time or maybe Brendan trying to be good like Cole |

Yup! The Rowe Coven could use the grimoire just like the girls use the book, Brendan could be conflicted and so could Prue but all Piper wants is vengeance for Phoebe.. lol we might have a replay of one of those early lessons on Charmed of not punishing the guilty. What do you think, could Piper's desire to vanquish the Rowe Coven be considered Punishing the Guilty? Or is it okay for Piper to want this because it's to help her cope with Phoebe?

OOOO! What a dilemna THAT would be! I've always counted demons, warlocks, etc. as different than non-magicals (I don't call them mortals since the sisters are also mortal...), so vanquishing them would be fine with me - as long as she's vanquishing them because what they did to Phoebe was indeed evil - not something that gets her thinking that anyone who does something she doesn't like, she can vanquish.
But I can see others seeing it differently....

Mhmm I totally agree, Piper would just be vanquishing evil since their Warlocks and destroyed the Power of 3.

It would be awesome to see because they would be even and how the sisters ( prue,Piper, phoebe)
Would handle being matched with the rowe coven. Instead of the ultimate power.

I think the Rowe Coven has so much potential as an arc for the show, and the fact that it was treated as a one-off episode has always irked me. Especially the way that the two Rowe brothers just killed each other at the end, it just always seemed ridiculous. The brothers were pretty powerful in the first season, so I do understand that the Charmed Ones had almost no chance if Brendan had joined then, but this is season three. Season three would have a completely different set of Charmed Ones and they would have just as much potential in defeating the Rowe Coven.
I really really dislike the idea of any of the Charmed Ones dying in this battle, but I do like Prue having mastery of her telekinesis in her astral form. I'm not so sure about Piper having full mastery over her molecular combustion seeing as she got it at the end of the season rather than the beginning, but Prue was already trying to figure out a way to master her TK when the season started.
This battle would just be something else, but I think season three Charmed Ones would definitely come out on top.
It could have very easily pushed the Belthazor storyline into the back half of the third season or even into the fourth, and if that were the case.. Prue was already becoming this super witch and using her TK to fight and levitate and become bada**, if she learned TK in her astral form..The Belthazor arc would be completely changed too. And then Piper with her exploding ability.. Uhh so much potential!

This would've been a good plot season 8 and better than the ultimate battle storyline had it been done rightly with a good plotline and took all 3 sisters to kill them with a blood, spell, flesh potion whatever provided there were no things distracting them before hand like Phoebe's baby quest thing for e.g. and the sisters were solely focused on them etc.

So . . . are you saying that whomever finds him or herself possessed by the Source should be immediately vanquished without any help from the Halliwells?
Why? Because you want them to? I would say the Rowe brothers would have just as good a chance of defeating the Halliwells as the latter would have of defeating them. Again, there seemed to be this assumption that the Halliwells would win, because the show is about them . . . and for no other reason.

It is called Charmed and of course I'm gonna root for them. And since sadly the episode was a one-off, it's all speculation. However, if you want me to say that the Rowe Coven would've completely wrecked the sisters and wiped them off the earth, I can do that too just to be fair to them. Or since it's season three, just Prue would die and then the Charmed Ones could still be reconstituted for season four. This battle would just be something else, but I think the Rowe Coven would definitely come out on top. |

Then do so. What is the point of these speculations on whether the Charmed Ones or whomever their equally powerful nemesis would win, when the answer would be based upon the show called "CHARMED"?

I still don't get it. Are you like busting just to bust? I did do so, that one post ended with "The Rowe Coven would definitely come out on top." I think the point is fun. You know, fun. |

These speculations on who would win is pointless. Why? Because these battles would be taking place on the show . . . which means that the Halliwells will end up victorious. That's why these speculations are pointless to me.
Why would the Halliwells battle the Rowes in Season 3, when they met the brothers in Season 1?

I don't get the big deal over the Rowe Brothers. I thought they were lame villains, and the whole idea of the "evil Charmed Ones" being guys is just full of icky gender politics. Thank goodness they were forgotten after Season 1! Now, Rex & Hannah, on the other hand, were a different story...  |
