Could you get by this version of The Source?

If they used this version of The Source for "Charmed And Dangerous" would you accept it?



Is this The Source that Rex and Hanna feared?

[Esmeralda]

Personally I don't think Connie Burge was thinking of this Source when she created Rex & Hannah - I think she was thinking Satan who, like the elder whitelighters aka the founders, were never supposed to be shown. I think the Source, like the Elders, was strictly a Kern-creation. But I"m sure they were much more afraid of this Source than Half-Faced. Why would anyone be afraid of an actor with bad makeup who whined more than Piper, and who, if he was truly the *Source* of All Evil, needed to take in the Hollow to try to defeat the Charmed Ones?

[Ruth Marie]

Hard to answer. Because they had no idea on The Source that far back, and the Source mythology kept changing dozens of times. Besides, in the early seasons they had no intention of showing him. It was Kern who finally gave us him in the flesh, and they kept changing and had no clue how he was to look.

But this Source from All Hell Breaks Loose, yes he is a threat. Just not Half Whiny-Faced from season 4.

So to answer your question. I am going with a definite no.

I prefer maintaining the mystique surrounding the Source's character. He should have remained as a strictly behind-the-scenes sort of adversary who continually inducts warlocks and various other magical nemesis' (not demons) to either kill or steal the powers of the Charmed Ones.

Now that I think about it, an all out war between the Source's faction and the Avatars sounds awesome; at least on paper. No more beating the dead horse that is "Good vs Evil". Just give us two factions vying for power with one being more in the middle, morality wise, instead of tilting strongly towards the ends of the moral spectrum.

Maybe it was best he never appeared at all. With how bad things turned out in season 4. A mysterious force of evil known as the Source which is never seen may have been the best for this show.

Interesting that had Leo and Cole's role on the show never gotten so big. We wouldn't probably ever see The Underworld or the Heavens. Because you take them both out, then the focus would of shifted back to what he was in season 1 and 2. You cant have the Heavens without a whitelighter, and you can't have the Underworld without a Demon.

Not saying we couldn't still see Elders and the Source still introduced without it. But I found it interesting to think the increased purpose came about because they had two regulars who were important to the mythology of it.

The Sorce, the Counsil, the Founders:better to see them as dark, hooded, mysterious figures

Yep that would of spared us from how horrible they were when we meet them all.

Even more reason why the Triad should've always been the ultimate Big Bad - the three most powerful witches versus the three most powerful demons. I sometimes think the Source would've been a better adversary if he hadn't been referred to as "the Source of All Evil". The idea that all evil would reside in one being kind of set the character up to fail. It was too simplistic. He was basically just the King of the Undeerworld.

[erikamarie]

I loved the idea of the Council, which belonged to both the Triad and Crone
The Sorce as an old, almost outdated king would be more intriguing, his need to defeat the sisters'ld have a good reason to recover consideration

[Alana]

I'd prefer that a Sourse was a mysterious and powerful creature, some really unreacheble and almost invincible. Not some kind of a high-level Demon.
The Half-Face wasn't scary, he was stupid.

I think the show's whole concept with the whitelighters, the Source, the Underground, etc. was questionable from the beginning. Even the show's portrayal of warlocks had me shaking my head. Whoever came up with the supernatural antagonists for the show did a shoddy job. And to have the Source as "the Source of All Evil" was joke to me. Because no demon or daemon could be that.

He should have remained as a strictly behind-the-scenes sort of adversary who continually inducts warlocks and various other magical nemesis' (not demons) to either kill or steal the powers of the Charmed Ones.

Why would the Source need to kill the Halliwells in the first place? He is more powerful than them . . . whether he was a demon or some "spirit of evil". And they're witches. Even if they were the most powerful witches, there should have been other supernatural beings STILL more powerful than them. For them to be that powerful, the Halliwells would require other supernatural beings that are not humans in their bloodline.

The only thing I don't like about this source is the wings. I can't take it seriously LOL
