If you could see the New Power Of 3 in action, which Halliwell children would you had like to see take that role?
Phoebe and Coop's daughters Paige and Henry's twins and son (excluding the fact Henry Jr. is adopted in the comics) or Piper and Leo's children: Wyatt, Melinda and Chris?
Which children would be the most powerful?

Phoebe and Coop's daughters - so long as they didn't have any Cupid powers. I wouldn't be particularly interested in watching 'Charmed Whitelighters' which is what Wyatt, Chris and Melinda would be nor 'Whitelighters' which is basically what be Paige's kids would be.
However, if Wyatt and Chris just had one actual hybrid power (Telekinetic Orbing; Forcefields etc) I would be into that, but I wouldn't enjoy 'King Wyatt and his Siblings'.

Wyatt and Chris, and no one else. They were the only Charmed kids we ever needed, especially since they had already made Wyatt a Twice-Blessed Superwitch. He, alone, was as powerful as the Power of Three, for better or worse. No surprise that the Charmed Sons spinoff movement died out not long after the show ended. The addition of Phoebe and Paige's Brood of Brats, along with Mystery Girl, helped sink the ship. Fans wanted a show about two brothers fighting evil, not the magical Brady Bunch.

The Brood Of Brats were not only the rats that sank the TCS ship, they sank any possible continuation of Charmed. Unless you write about characters that have no connection to the Halliwell family, such as Rex and Hannah, you're pretty much stuck with the magical Brady Bunch.
I can understand why, when they were talking about bringing Charmed back a few years ago, they were thinking a total reboot. There was really no other option, thanks to the Brood Of Brats.

I'd much rather see a Power of Three than just a bunch of witchlighters, especially Wyatt who was much too powerful and would've become boring very quickly. Now if Piper had been smart and bound his powers, then I could see it, but only that way.

Personally none of them. Since all of them would be hybrids in some way, and that doesn't appeal to me one bit.
But Phoebe and Coop's daughters works the best, all girls and as long as they didn't have any Cupid powers. That I can accept.
I dont want to see Piper's kids no thanks.

Tell me about it. Did we really need that many kids? Did we even need to KNOW how many kids Phoebe and Paige had? And, then, there's the whole Mystery Girl disaster and all the fights she caused. UGH! Better to just go the reboot route, nowadays. Anything to get away from the Brood of Brats and the rest of the crap from the later seasons that helped ruin the show.

As I have said, ALL those problems would have been eliminated had they just left that damned flash forward on the cutting room floor. It added nothing to the episode and seems to have been added just to pad it out.
Imagine if they had just ended on the big Halliwell get together. The series would have thus ended with Piper and Leo married, with Wyatt and Chris. Paige married to Henry, but no kids. Phoebe and, ugh, Mr. Cardboard, but no kids. It should have been left up to the imagination of what happened next.
Both Paul Ruditis and Pat Shand would probably have been much happier, as the comics would have a lot more creative freedom than they currently have.

Agreed, that way they could still just (JUST, she says!) be Warren witches - which is *more* than enough.

None of them because I don't believe that a new Power of Three could be
More than tree hundred years because the dynasty Warren could generate powerful sisters and then this unique power becomes trivially hereditary, like the gene of red hair or the predisposition to high cholesterol?
I cannot accept it

I can't see how 'Charmed: The Next Generation' would work as a show premise anyway. We've already discovered the main spells, creatures and concepts of the universe on the main show. A new show would just be a boring, potion-throwing, fireball-deflecting borefest.

Canon is what happened in the series - no books, no comics, no Wikipedia- and I never heard of a future Power of Three
Next Generation'ld be as Marvel Heroess and I am frankly bored of super heroes
If I'ld choose, better no new Power of Three, no superpowerful Chamerd Ones's heirs, Wyatt and Chris that follow their own destiny separate from mother and aunts, maybe in a different place, a new Hellmouth, Phoebe's girls as normal witches, Paige's girls as normal witches- no whitelighters- and Henry jr powerless
Just think of the laws of genetics: half Henry's powerless genetic heritage mixs with half Paige's genetic heritage that can be half Whitelighter or half human / witch
In the first case, the twins'll be witches and, if Prue was right, Henry Jr. will be powerless, otherwise they'll have the opportunity to be half Whitelighter as Paige but I hope that in the second generation the gene has weakened and the children were as their father

The prophecy was that it would see the birth of three sisters, the most powerful good witches of all time. That prophecy has passed, there can be no new power of three. The prophecy was fulfilled. The kids will be string witches sure but they could never have the same kind of power that the power of three had minus Wyatt.

A new show would just be a boring, potion-throwing, fireball-deflecting borefest. I agree, especially with the way the show ended. At this point, it's better to just reboot and take the premise in a different (and hopefully, better) direction. There's really no way a spinoff or continuation could work with the "Forever Charmed" ending, lest you do what Tim has done and build a series around minor, non-Halliwell characters.

Trouble is, not a lot of Charmed fans are willing to do that.
To most, it's the Halliwells or nothing. So unless they're willing to go the AU route, they're pretty much screwed by Forever Charmed.

As others have already explained, the Power of Three is uniquely connected to the original three sisters. A neo version of them would not only be redundant, but it would also contradict this previously established fact. It's not like the children are short of magical power anyway. There's nine of them altogether. Wyatt alone is powerful enough to handle any threats that come, and considering the state of affairs in the Underworld with practically every credible threat vanquished, I don't see much need for them beyond the standard innocent & rescue. They're more likely to experience difficulty in competing with each other than fighting any kind of monster.

Phoebe's children. Mainly because I don't think being half-cupid affords them any extra powers.
I could see one of the daughters being just like their mother(power wise) but also using her cupid powers to advance her witch powers.
Premonitions + Empathy + Cupid
She'd give way better advice than her mom, and be able to use her cupid connections to help her readers fall in love. If she too followed the same career path.
And unlike Paige who had whitelighter responsibilities forced upon her, Phoebe's daughter would be able to choose whether or not she wants to be a cupid. If being a cupid interferes too much with her Charmed duties, she can put the ring away.

If the children ever did come around I wouldn't like them to be the same as their parents later on demon hunters.
I'd want them to have their own destinies and so not be tied down to the Elders or anything else and fight evil only when they'd needed to if one of Phoebe's kids had a premonition say or an innocent asked them for help or they were attacked first.
Because of their destinies being different to their parents I'd hope evil wouldn't attack them as much meaning they could have jobs not calling them to leave all the time due to 'family emergencies'.
Myself generally I'd just prefer a reboot actually newer and better consistent throughout righting what went wrong originally.

Exactly, there is no "Power of 9" or anything like that. As I've said, Wyatt and Chris are probably the only kids who are anything special, since they're the oldest two, as well as the only two who were born before the Ultimate Battle and demon pact. The other kids could all be plain old non-magical mortals, for all we know, which is just fine with me (the fewer magical brats, the better). Myself generally I'd just prefer a reboot actually newer and better consistent throughout righting what went wrong originally. Same here. It would be really hard for any good spinoff or continuation to work around the baggage from the later seasons.

The Brood Of Brats forced the Rex and Hannah Chronicles to do the following: GoodbyeHelloNot that I'm complaining, mind you. I've found I've had an increase of output since I moved R&H to Lovecraft Country.
