Someone should write a fan fiction that involves Cole's parents.
You know what I would love? In "The Three Faces of Phoebe", imagine if Cole's parents appeared to Phoebe after the spell instead of young and old Phoebe. It would have been far more interesting to hear Cole's parents talk about Cole (especially the different human/demon perspectives) and weigh in on the possible marriage between Phoebe and Cole.
To restate my thoughts (haha), I strongly strongly dislike the writing and acting in that episode. Old and young Phoebe were super awful in my opinion. The show was really hit or miss with it's young actors. I will say the girls who played young Piper and young Prue in "That 70's Episode" were EXCELLENT. Maybe this was because they were a duo - two kids vs a kid in isolation (young Phoebe, Wyatt - why didn't he ever speak even in season eight when he was 4?) seemed to work better.
I liked the character of Tyler but he could have been acted better. I also thought the actor who played Max in season one was excellent. Come to think of it, maybe Shannen was really good at working with kids... I can see her making them feel comfortable and make it seem like they are just having fun/playing a game together rather than "acting as a job". Sorry for this long winded side note haha.

I never thought about using that one to show Cole's parents. I loved Little Prue and Piper, they were perfectly cast, even if, they are technically suppose to be playing 2 and 4, even though they cast much older actors, I really think they casted so well with them, and totally loved them in the episode. Same with Max, I did think Shannen had a good chemistry with the actor. I'm not a fan of The Three Faces of Phoebe either. Yeah, I didn't even realize that Wyatt barely spoke, until you pointed it out (been forever since I saw S8), you'd think he would by S8, given he was about four. Maybe the child actor playing Wyatt was just so shy, but really they barely did anything with him, apart from when the plot needed his powers used. No, wait, he did have a story when it was his birthday in S8, but I'm surprised Wyatt's first word was never a plot point.

I would love if she would make an appearance, I actually have created a whole storyline around it. If anyone wants to hear it, I'll upload it, just perfecting some details.

Would've loved this as a S5 arc instead of Cole coming back, personally. His mother seeking revenge against the Charmed Ones for killing her son. Would've made S5 a little bit darker than what we got.
