Here's how. From my own Dream Charmed...with Children: If only they'd done something like that! Ah yeah, if we go back to the very beginning of season 2, I can see a scenario where the Elders are willing to reward Leo with a new mortal identity. And I can definitely see him work in one of those free clinics. It could even be a place for him to come in contact with innocents who need help from the Charmed Ones. I think a lot of us can agree that we'd prefer Leo as a mortal! YES!  It would be a way for them to connect with new innocents, and how great it would be for Leo to use his medical skills to save and treat the sister's wounds. But, I have a feeling, if they did this, Paige would sooner be given the power to heal much earlier, knowing the writers, unless they got given a new whitelighter once Leo is gone. And Piper would get the normal life she always wanted, and we're be spared all the horrors of their relationship that followed. I'd just hope that with Leo now mortal it means Wyatt and Chris will not be hybrids with all those extra powers, so they'd have just one witch power, and no whitelighters powers. |

Yeah, that's a side effect I thought could've happened if Leo had become mortal that the sisters got a new white lighter or Paige started healing season 5 or 6 onwards which some people would've thought boring I'm sure unless it was decided early on only full white lighters could heal people and not half white lighters for whatever reason then, Wyatt and Paige wouldn't have done that obviously.

Especially if say Leo became a doctor and opened up his own clinic or worked at a hospital, or something. Him being able to heal their wounds fighting demons without healing powers, but doing it the natural way would be more fun. I'm wondering how Leo would be able to become a doctor and open a clinic when he's supposed to be dead. But it would be a interesting angle to pursue to see Leo trying to build up his life again as a mortal. If I remember correctly, on the show Batwoman, her younger step-sister Mary, who hasn't graduated med school yet, runs a secret illegal clinic to help the people who can't afford it. Ends up helping Batwoman and sometimes even the not good but not bad guys with their injuries many times. Something like that would suit Leo. Perhaps even something like being working for a clinic set up by the gypsy Dr. Ava. A clinic where Leo heals people and teaches others the art of healing as well sound a million times better than Magic School. |

There are free clinics out there run by charities where people volunteer and the way they survive is through donations by businesses or people so Leo could've worked for one of them or as you said cyma worked with Ava the gipsy otherwise which would've been another good place also.

Constance Burge from TV Zone, speaking about Andy's relationship with Prue, and what ultimately led to the character being written out: "It was a difficult line to walk because if he knew who they were, then the show would be about him bringing cases to them. We didn't want them solving cases. At the same time, it was important to us that one of the lead male characters on the show be strong and solve cases on his own, which was difficult when we had what was a supernatural show. It would be impossible for him to solve supernatural cases at the same time we had the women solving them, but he had to be aware of things so that he wouldn't look like he didn't know what was going on. It was a difficult decision (to kill him off) but a necessary one." Guys, do we have any interviews with Constance Burge where she speaks about her departure from the show? Andy seemed like a very nice guy, and i thought him and Prue looked cute together, but i didn't really feel he brought much to the show in terms of interesting character development. That being said his death was still heartbreaking. |

Okay so I didn't know this. I don't doubt that at the time this was Constance's reasoning but I mean... Soon after Andy's death Darryl became the exact thing she said she didn't want for the show. So I did have a little chuckle. I'd be FAR more interested to hear from Shannen as to why Andy was killed off/left the show. For some reason I think it was to add drama to the show or something. If we look at a show like Buffy, Joss Whedon's reasoning for killing off characters (much more characters were killed in Buffy than Charmed) was because it kept the audience on their toes and to show that any character could be killed off at any time. I was thinking - the only two supporting characters that *weren't* demons who we *DIDN'T* see after their deaths were Prue, Andy, Inspector Rodriguez and Inspector Sheridan. I venture to say that no one really cared about Sheridan, not sure about Rodriguez because the show presented these two as "villains". The only other human supporting character that died was Agent Brody (Kyle) but we got to see him after his death for closure. This is when we found out he had become a whitelighter. What gives Charmed?? |

What gives Charmed?? The difference between Andy and Daryl is that Andy was a much more leading character than Daryl ever was. Keeping Daryl as supportive and friends with the Halliwells made him look more competentant since he wasnt as involved as Andy. |

It wasn't necessary to kill off Andy. If that was her reason, why keep Darryl Morris on the show? I think my opinion of Burge had dropped several points. Haha, so true. I think they could've made it work. Where Andy's cases were revolved around the supernatural. That's precisely what the Power of Two episode is all about, and I love it. |
