This is probably my favorite poll.
In fact if there was a a "What is your Favorite Poll" Poll. I would vote for this one

This was hard. And I wish I could have chosen a 6th option. My Personal Fave 5 Episodes are bolded. The only one missing on the list is AHBL

Please forgive me fandom but Season 4 is my favorite season and this poll is about Favourite rather than Best. So my rankings are:

First
Period 4: Animal Pragmatism - Be Careful What You Witch For (2x13 - 2x22)

[/b]
A string of awesome episodes revolving around the sisters, saving innocence and awesome writing and acting.

35 2x13 10/Feb/2000 Animal Pragmatism (The only ep I don't like from this selection)
36 2x14 17/Feb/2000 Pardon My Past (My Favourite of this period)
37 2x15 24/Feb/2000 Give Me A Sign
38 2x16 30/Mar/2000 Murphy's Luck
39 2x17 06/Apr/2000 How to Make a Quilt Out of Americans
40 2x18 20/Apr/2000 Chick Flick (My Favourite silly, filler episode ever!)
41 2x19 27/Apr/2000 Ex Libris
42 2x20 04/May/2000 Astral Monkey
43 2x21 11/May/2000 Apocalypse Not (Great story - I wished they came back as the big bad for S5/6/7/8)
44 2x22 18/May/2000 Be Careful What You Witch For (My Favourite Season Finale)


Second
Period 2: Feats of Clay to Deja Vu All Over Again (1x11 - 1x22)
Back to the basics! A well written 2nd half of Season 1 with great story and acting)

11 1x11 20/Jan/1999 Feats of Clay (Least Favourite of this selection)
12 1x12 03/Feb/1999 The Wendigo
13 1x13 10/Feb/1999 From Fear to Eternity
14 1x14 17/Feb/1999 Secrets and Guys

16 1x16 03/Mar/1999 Which Prue Is It, Anyway?
17 1x17 07/Apr/1999 That '70s Episode (One of my Top 5 Fave Eps)
18 1x18 28/Apr/1999 When Bad Warlocks Go Good
19 1x19 05/May/1999 Out Of Sight (aka Blind Sided)
20 1x20 12/May/1999 The Power of Two
21 1x21 19/May/1999 Love Hurts
22 1x22 26/May/1999 Deja Vu All Over Again (My Second Fave Finale)


Third and Fourth - put together
Period 8: Charmed Again to A Knight to Remember (4x1 - 4x6)
Period 9: Brain Drain to Charmed and Dangerous (4x7 - 4x13)
These are my fondest memories of Charmed. Being 13, just started High School and loving the raw emotion and great storyline of all 3 sisters! It was the last time we had Fun Phoebe which is why I really adore this half of Season 4.

67 4x01 04/Oct/2001 Charmed Again (1) One of my top 5 favourite episodes
68 4x02 04/Oct/2001 Charmed Again (2)
69 4x03 11/Oct/2001 Hell Hath No Fury
70 4x04 18/Oct/2001 Enter the Demon (Least Favourite of the selection)
71 4x05 25/Oct/2001 Size Matters
72 4x06 01/Nov/2001 A Knight to Remember
73 4x07 08/Nov/2001 Brain Drain

78 4x12 31/Jan/2002 Lost and Bound
79 4x13 07/Feb/2002 Charmed and Dangerous One of my top 5 favourite episodes


Fifth
Period 10: The Three Faces of Phoebe to Witch Way Now (4x14 - 4x22)
Dark Dark Charmed and ALL Actors/Actress's are on form! Although very Phoebe centric, I was hocked into the stroyline and was taken away by the twisted storyline.

80 4x14 14/Feb/2002 The Three Faces of Phoebe
81 4x15 14/Mar/2002 Marry-Go-Round
82 4x16 21/Mar/2002 The Fifth Halliwheel
83 4x17 28/Mar/2002 Saving Private Leo
84 4x18 18/Apr/2002 Bite Me (Least favourite of the selection)
85 4x19 25/Apr/2002 We're Off to See the Wizard
86 4x20 02/May/2002 Long Live the Queen (One of my top 5 Favourite Episodes)
87 4x21 09/May/2002 Womb Raider
88 4x22 16/May/2002 Witch Way Now?



Sixth - special mention[/u]
Period 5: The Honeymoon's Over to Sleuthing with the Enemy (3x1 - 3x8)
The Glory days - I LOVE These episodes but looking back - they remind me of the beginning of the end. I love Julian McMahon but all three sisters should have been more suspecious of Cole in the beginning and Phoebe's selfish side began to emerge.


45 3x01 05/Oct/2000 The Honeymoon's Over
46 3x02 12/Oct/2000 Magic Hour
47 3x03 19/Oct/2000 Once Upon a Time (Least favourite episode)
48 3x04 26/Oct/2000 All Halliwell's Eve (Favourite episode of the selection)
49 3x05 02/Nov/2000 Sight Unseen
50 3x06 09/Nov/2000 Primrose Empath
51 3x07 16/Nov/2000 Power Outage
52 3x08 14/Dec/2000 Sleuthing With the Enemy



Thanks West. This was fun! Makes me remember the good times really well!
Maybe I'll come back today and rank all 22 periods soon!

Im glad you enjoyed it. It was so much fun to put together. My mission was to get 22 periods to match 22 episodes. It payed off.

That sounds like so much fun to order then from 1 to 22. I want to attempt that too.

[Granny Charmed]

I was *inspired* dears by you wanting to rank all 22 periods in order. I went ahead and did it myself. 

I color coded the seasons too, so you get a sense of the good, the bad and the ugly dears for fun.

Red = The terrible periods (section 18 to 22) WORST
Black = Getting on the bad side (section 13 to 17)
Green = somewhere in the middle (section 11 and 12) MIDDLE
Purple = Average seasons (section 6 to 10)
Blue = The best periods (section 1 to 5) BEST 



1. Period 2: Feats of Clay to Deja Vu All Over Again (1x11 - 1x22)

2. Period 3: Witch Trail to Awakened (2x1 - 2x12)

3. Period 1: Something Wicca This Way Comes to Wicca Envy (1x1 - 1x10)

11. Period 11: The Three Faces of Phoebe to Witch Way Now (4x14 - 4x22)

12. Period 7: Coyote Piper to Just Harried (3x9 - 3x15)

17. Period 20: Still Charmed & Kicking to Rewitched (8x1 - 8x5)

18. Period 17: A Call to Arms to Someone to Witch Over Me (7x1 - 7x7)

22. Period 22: The Last Temptation of Christy to Forever Charmed (8x15 - 8x22)



Oh West, you made a small typo. This is 21 periods and not 22. Not to worry dear. These things happen, you could have done something in season 2 and put the entire Piper/Leo/Dan love triangle arc as its own period from 2x13-2x17. That could have been better.


If anyone wants to rank them, and have 22 periods. You more than welcome dears to use mine and have the Piper/Leo/Dan arc as its own period.
I've made this list for easy access for my charmed cafe to be able to rank each period in order from 1 to 22. 

Period 1: Something Wicca This Way Comes to Wicca Envy (1x1 - 1x10)

Period 2: Feats of Clay to Deja Vu All Over Again (1x11 - 1x22)

Period 4: Animal Pragmatism to How to Make a Quilt out of Americans (2x13 – 2x17)

Period 5: Chick Flick to Be Careful What You Witch For (2x18 - 2x22)

Period 6: The Honeymoon's Over to Sleuthing with the Enemy (3x1 - 3x8)

Period 7: Coyote Piper to Just Harried (3x9 - 3x15)

Period 8: Death Takes a Halliwell to All Hell Breaks Loose (3x16 - 3x22)

Period 9: Charmed Again to A Knight to Remember (4x1 - 4x6)

Period 10: Brain Drain to Charmed and Dangerous (4x7 - 4x13)

my bad grannycharmed. Thanks for pointing out on the periods typo and adding another to fit 22.

I still haven't gotten around to ranking all 22 periods. Like the thread you created with ranking season 1 episodes. I shall ponder this one too.

We really need to collect all this data and in the polls and post in a thread. It would be nice to reflect and look over what this charmed cafe likes. Seems we all are coming up with great polls and threads lately.

My pleasure West.

Now theres an *idea* dear. I myself thought about something similar - It could be nice. I saw on here we had some sort of contest or voting for the best of charmed.

Might we consider putting together another contest. Only like a *tournament bracket* with rounds for best episode? Im not familiar with those sporting ones. But Im sure someone here knows better than this old girl.

Period 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10.

[Ruth Marie]

Period 1: Something Wicca This Way Comes to Wicca Envy (1x1 - 1x10)
Period 2: Feats of Clay to Deja Vu All Over Again (1x11 - 1x22)
Period 3: Witch Trail to Awakened (2x1 - 2x12)
Period 5: The Honeymoon's Over to Sleuthing with the Enemy (3x1 - 3x8)
Period 18: Carpe Demon to Something Wicca This Way Goes...? (7x14 - 7x22)

These are my choices.

[Charmed by Piper]

Period 2: Feats of Clay to Deja Vu All Over Again (1x11 - 1x22)

Period 3: Witch Trail to Awakened (2x1 - 2x12)

Period 5: Chick Flick to Be Careful What You Witch For (2x18 - 2x22)

Period 6: The Honeymoon's Over to Sleuthing with the Enemy (3x1 - 3x8)

Period 13: House Call to Necromancing the Stone (5x13 - 5x21)

[Ruth Marie]

The most popular string of episodes is clearly The Honeymoon's Over through Sleuthing with the Enemy. Followed closely by Death Takes a Halliwell to All Hell Breaks Loose, and all of season 1.

Interesting to see during the first four seasons, no love for the string of episodes between Coyote Piper through Just Harried. Guess many either really don't like any of the episodes here, or Phoebe lying to her sisters about Cole really leaves a bad impression for some.

Some fans don't like what happened in Sleuthing with the Enemy, and as such the episode's that follow upset people. So your right, they might hate the Phoebe lying to her sisters storyline. 

The string of episode's that are loved doesn't surprise me. But surprised season 4 isn't much much higher.

I am surprised season 4 isn't leading the polls too. But seeing the first arc of season 3 leading isn't a big surprise to me too.

Yep, or people only like certain episodes in some of the periods and can't vote for it as a whole.

Which was the case for me dear in many of the choices. I found it too hard to vote for some periods. Now if I could cancel out an episode or two in many of these. I might find it *so* much easier to vote. 

[Sasha]

OMG I've edited it a few times, I hope I've found the definitive lol

[Emmett]

Period 2, 3, 4, 5 and 18.

[Aaeiyn]

This was so hard! But, the 5 I chose (in no particular order):

Period 1: Something Wicca This Way Comes to Wicca Envy (1x1-1x10)
Period 2: Feats of Clay to Deja Vu All Over, Again (1x11-1x22)
Period 5: The Honeymoon's Over to Sleuthing with the Enemy (3x1-3x8)
Period 13: Oh My Goddess to Chris-Crossed (5x22-6x10)
Period 17: Charmed Noir to Charmageddon (7x8-7x13)

Honorable Mention (because I cannot have this be considered a "bad" period): Period 16: A Call to Arms to Someone to Witch Over Me (7x1 - 7x7)
It's just, some of the episodes prior to "Someone to Witch Over Me (7x7)", aren't that great, that's why I sacrificed it, despite liking that episode, specifically.
