I'm still trying to come up with ideas for our new S4/S5 and putting them together.

But for now, I put together another press release for a standalone. Looking at the calendar, I figured our own Friday the 13th was in order, so I've placed it during season 2. I'm not using Barbas but came up with my own villain and again making her a Demoness, not a Demon. 

ELEMENTAL WITCHES (TV-14, DLV) (HDTV)

Season 2, Episode 13 'Welcome to My Nightmares'

NIGHTMARES HAUNT THE WARRENS ON FRIDAY THE 13TH — The Demoness of Nightmares has returned, for the first time in 100 years. Again the demoness sets out to start harming innocent children. But when Warren's attempt at rescuing the children ends up backfiring, they find it was really a trap for the five Warren's. The Demoness puts them into their own dreamscapes, where each of the Warren's must fight to escape their own dream passage and conqueror their own inner thoughts in their dreams, in addition to each rescuing their own innocent. 

But soon Prudence learns that her spirit element might be the key to helping them escape. When she is able to tap into her own Elemental Power and guide her family by entering other dreamscapes, that's if she can escape her own dream passage first.

I'm glad it's not a Barbas or a Demon of fear. A Demoness is good for our Friday the 13th episode. Don't bring her back though. Once is enough. Please!

Season 1, Episode 11, 'A Warlock and Witches Family Feud'

TWO WARLOCKS, ONE FAMILY, ONE DEEP DARK SECRET — While volunteering at a local senior center with Prudence, Phoebe bonds with Margaret, a kind, gentle and innocent old lady who is known for her card games and stories from her younger years. But Phoebe and Prudence will soon find out this old lady is anything but kind and gentle, and might be harboring a dark side. 

At the same time, a new co-worker named Kathy joins the team at the Salem Social Services, and again she has the same impression that Margaret had, but isn't who she seems.

Eventually, Patience makes the scene of a murder and learns that people of similar last names are being killed. Turns out that the two women are working together to track down every family member for revenge, and are both really warlocks. Margaret isn't even an old lady, but using it as a disguise, and Kathy isn't even just a Social Services employee.

Prudence and Phoebe soon learn that Margaret is really looking for an old lady in the senior center who witnessed an event that happened many decades ago. As Prudence and Phoebe work to save an innocent, Patience, Paige and Piper work to save the many family members the two warlocks are after, learning they are witches.

Well done Summer.

Interesting episode and I like that again we have Warren's jobs and situations being how they get muddled up in the feud.

This reminds me of Loves a Witch but a feud between a warlock and witches family. Maybe their children got together. Much better making that a story for one episode than pairing a Warren with a Warlock. That could be a fun one to save an innocent falling for a warlock.

Also the senior center reminds me of Pardon My Past or just the old lady knowing or seeing something decades ago.

Good job Summer!

An episode with the Warrens helping out a family to stop the union between a warlock and witch is a fun episode to do. And again, not having a warlock paired with a Warren. I never even considered such a plot for our series at all, so making it for an innocent sounds better.

Did a press release, and did a slight adjustment, but I haven't polished them. As we work on connecting the stories for S4 second half and S5 better. 

So, the press releases might need further proofing. I left some of them as the same until we can work out how to work them better with the changes and rearrangements.

As the Warrens search the ship for the Demoness of Possession, she gains control of the birthday girl.

Yup, and that is what we want our show to do dear. And another for it not to get boring and run much longer than it should. 

I still can't believe dear how far we have come since I started the reboot ideas thread only 3 weeks ago. I'm overjoyed to see it led to this amazing project with EC. 

We're having too much fun. A reason to stick to 100 episodes and not be Classic Charmed and do eight.

Has it really only been 3 weeks. It doesn't feel like it. It feels like we've been at it for much longer. Just so much effort put into this. Everyone involved in some way has turned this into a great project.

I know dear, we certainly have been working very hard these last 3 weeks. I look forward to the journey continuing, to think about what we might accomplish in a few months time. I can't wait to see this project unfold.

Again, Summer, the press releases are great dear. I just wonder what these two warlocks are after, and what the old lady Margaret is trying to find knows. 

I liked the suggestion made that the two are feuding and the daughter and son are romantically linked, causing the feud between the Warlock Family and the Witch Family. Unless you have *other* ideas for what the two warlocks are after for revenge.

I have a suggestion that maybe it would be better for Kathy to pose as someone in the police department if she uses their database to track down the family members she needs with records.

But when she enters a tent, she finds a cult of young women who believe in witches and warlocks and worship their supposed ruler. Phoebe's attempt to correct one of the cult's spell goes horribly wrong when it conjures their made-up leader in the flesh.



Now the cult sets out to gain new followers for their leader, so it's up to Phoebe, Patience, and Prudence to stop a warlock who doesn't really exist - without the full power of the Elemental Witches.



Meanwhile while in still in prison, Piper is visited by her boyfriend [TBC], who proposes to her. But Piper won't give him an answer since she fears he is only asking because she may be convicted and he's trying to make her feel better.

Season 4, Episode 20: 'Innocents Always Come First'



THE SISTERHOOD OF PATIENCE AND PAIGE - Patience tries again to get through to her sister Paige and sets out to put herself in danger, in the hopes that Paige will save her. But Patience isn't thinking straight. Prudence is the one who rescues her daughter before sadly reminding her and in order to become a witch again, a warlock must willingly save an Innocent - someone who is innocent of the existence of magic, so rescuing a Warren wouldn't count.



Later Prudence has a premonition of the Demon of Despair kidnapping young children. This demon forms nightmares tearing away the foundations of self and purpose. While trying to rescue the children, the demon uses Patience's despair caused by her inability to save her younger sister to turn her into his next victim. Can Prudence and Phoebe save her when they're now three Elementals down?



Meanwhile, Piper receives some very unpleasant news, and reconsiders her future.

As the Warrens search the ship for the Demoness of Possession, she gains control of the birthday girl.

As always, feel free to edit, change, or ask questions?

Again, more work needs to be done, and fix a few press releases with the adjusted stories.

So dear, let me get this straight. I'm assuming the very ancient evil that was summoned is defeated by episode's end, but then Peyton comes and takes possession of Andrea. So everyone just assumed whatever was accidentally summoned was dealt with, and this is where Bridget gets suspicious in the following episodes. 

Unless Piper and Phoebe's lost and found spell also backfires and played a part too?

The only thing we might have to consider is another way the Coven get hold of the spell to separate a witch from her powers. Since it won't be Bridget now (she's dead) and if Andrea is already exposed, can't be her dear.

So the Coven would need to take possession of maybe Piper's boyfriend for a little bit perhaps, who is completely unaware what he is doing to get inside the house and out with the spell. Actually didn't we suggest somewhere a while ago with having Peyton having the power of shapeshifting, isn't that what she does to frame Piper, and put the blame on Paige and get her away from her family?

I'm still trying to come up with ideas for our new S4/S5 and putting them together.

But for now, I put together another press release for a standalone. Looking at the calendar, I figured our own Friday the 13th was in order, so I've placed it during season 2. I'm not using Barbas but came up with my own villain and again making her a Demoness, not a Demon.

Well, as we discussed in that other thread, I don't think 'From Fear to Eternity' was written to be shown on Friday the 13th, but rather to be the 13th episode and possibly the series finale had Classic Charmed only gone 13 episodes. But congrats in realizing that December 13, 2019 will be a Friday the 13th. That means our Sunday, December 15, 2019 would be the perfect day for a Friday the 13th episode - the last episode before our Christmas break.

ON FRIDAY THE 13TH, NIGHTMARES HAUNT...AND KILL — The Demoness of Nightmares has returned for the first time in 100 years. If she can kill 13 innocent children before midnight, she will become immortal. But as each Warren tries to rescue one of the children, she finds herself in her own dreamscape. Each Warren must fight to escape her own dream passage and conquer her own inner thoughts in her dreams, while still trying to rescue her own innocent.

Fortunately Prudence realizes that her spirit element might be the key to helping her and her family escape. She's sure she can tap into her own Elemental power of Spirit to enter the other deramscapes and guide her family out. But before she does that, can she figure out what is real and what is a nightmare so she can escape her own nightmare where family members are being killed and she can't reach them?

ELEMENTAL WITCHES (TV-14, DLV) (HDTV)

Season 1, Episode 11, 'Warlocks vs. Witches Family Feud'

TWO WARLOCKS, ONE FAMILY, ONE DEEP DARK SECRET — While volunteering at a local senior center with Prudence, Phoebe bonds with Margaret Baker, a kind, gentle and innocent old lady who is known for her card games and stories from her younger years. At the same time, Kathy Baker joins the team at Salem Social Services and when she finds out that Kathy went to the same college, Paige makes quick friends with her.

Meanwhile, while taking pictures at the scene of a murder, Patience learns from the cops that people with the last name of Baker are being killed. She also finds out from a friend of hers who knows her family secret that the Bakers are a family of witches.

What the Warrens don’t know is that neither Margaret or Kathy are actually Bakers – they’re warlocks who are working together. Margaret isn't even an old lady, but using it as a disguise, and Kathy never went to college. Margaret is looking for an old lady in the senior center who witnessed an event that happened many decades ago while Kathy is using SSS to find the other members of the Baker family.

Baker is a common name in Salem and not all Bakers are related and most aren’t witches. Can Patience, Paige and Piper find and protect the rest of the family, and can Prudence and Phoebe figure out who’s the warlock and who’s the witch?

Did a press release, and did a slight adjustment, but I haven't polished them. As we work on connecting the stories for S4 second half and S5 better. 

So, the press releases might need further proofing. I left some of them as the same until we can work out how to work them better with the changes and rearrangements.

That's what I was thinking, something to throw them off from finding that right then. I didn't think that the lost and found spell could play a part in Peyton coming back too. 

I didn't think about those, but you are right we might need to amend press releases for these. Again, I only played a little bit with them. If we find it is not working, we can always revert back to Bridget, but I love it being Andrea and Bridget staying Prudence's best friend and being the one to die and Piper is framed for murder. 

I guess we could have Peyton shapeshifting to get inside the house if she does that to frame Piper.

I love these edits Es. As I said with the other press release. It has my tick of approval. This one I love so much. 

Yet again, I'm loving how nicely were coming along with our episodes. I think focusing more on S3 is in order, we only have one press release for that. We discussed doing some time travel, so now the fun of coming up with ideas for that. Anyone want to jump in, go for it!

[Esmeralda]

Our press-release reporters have done SUCH a fantastic job since the last time I updated, I simply *have* to include their updates! Along that line, I've taken out all of the actors' names except for Shannen and Alyssa who we agree will only star in one episode each season, the way Jennifer 'Grams" Rhodes did in Classic Charmed.

For anyone who wants to have fun continuing to cast Classic Charmed actors by doing Elemental Charmed fantasy-style rather than alternate-universe style, I've copied all of our previous casting into the Casting Thread.

"Elemental Charmed"

BACKSTORY:

Prudence Warren, a witch born from a long matriarchal line of witches who have always lived in Warren Manor in Salem, MA, always said everything happens for a reason, but nothing comes without a price.

She has known that she has the Elemental power of Spirit when she started having premonitions as a teenager. While studying to become a doctor, she married fellow witch, Allen Halliwell, and gave birth twice (with Allen agreeing to let their daughters carry the family name of Warren if any son carried his family name of Halliwell). When they grew older, Prudence discovered that her older daughter, Patience, had the Elemental power of Earth, while her younger daughter, Paige, had the Elemental power of Air. When Prudence's premonitions revealed that her two future granddaughters would have the other two Elemental powers of Water and Fire, she realized that her family was destined to become the powerful Elemental Witches. She began training her daughters in the Craft in order to prepare them for what would eventually happen to them and their own daughters, especially after a warlock murdered Allen.

While still a teenager, Paige fell in love with an older man, Sam Wilder. Although Prudence warned her against him so Paige eventually broke up with him, a couple months later she discovered she was pregnant. She gave birth to a daughter, Peyton. When Prudence, Patience, and Paige discovered that Peyton had the Elemental power of Water, and when a couple years later Patience married non-magical Victor Bennett and had their daughter Piper, who had the Elemental power of Fire, the Warren family was certain that those five would become the Elemental Witches with each of Prudence's daughters having one child, who were cousins.

This changed when Sam came back and began influencing his eight-year-old daughter. When Peyton used her firepower to kill a classmate who was teasing her, she became a warlock like her father. Under his influence, Peyton turned on her family and much as it hurt the family, especially Patience, they ended up having to vanquish Peyton, and they were sure all was lost.

But this changed five years later, when Piper was ten and Patience gave birth to Phoebe, who had the same Elemental power as Peyton - Water. After Phoebe was born, Patience and her mother and sister decided to try to protect her daughters from what had happened to Peyton. The three older witches placed a cloaking spell on Victor and the girls before the three of them relocated to the other side of the country in San Francisco. This way the girls could be raised by their father and be protected while also having a normal childhood, something no other Warren witch had ever had.

In order to continue to protect them, Victor raised Piper and Phoebe so they didn't know that they were witches or destined to become one of the Elemental Witches – they were always just his little girls. They’ve visited their grandmother, mother (who they believed divorced their father, but agreed to let him have custody so that she could live her own life as a photographer for the Salem Police Department) during summer vacations and they always go back to Warren Manor for Christmas.

But as our series begins, Prudence has a premonition showing that Sam is back, going after Piper and Phoebe, so the two are in danger. Paige uses her Elemental power of Air to transport herself, her mother and her sister to her nieces. They're too late to prevent Sam from murdering Victor, but thanks to Prudence's premonition, Patience uses her Elemental power of Earth to throw Sam into a wall before he can harm her daughters. Then Prudence, Patience and Paige use a potion and a spell to vanquish Sam. Patience reveals to her daughters that they are witches and lets them decide if they want her to unbind their powers. After seeing what happened to their father, that idea frightens the girls and they decide against this.

Piper and Phoebe try to forget what their mother told them as they help their family prepare their father’s wake and funeral, even as the younger set of sisters consider moving to Salem. During the funeral, the whole Warren family remember and mourn Victor through numerous flashbacks.

But when Piper and Phoebe see how their powers can help people, they finally agreed to embrace their destiny, and their powers are unbound. They agree to join their mother and aunt, who along with their grandmother who uses her premonitions and knowledge to guide her daughters and granddaughters. The five Warren women are now the Elemental Witches, setting out to protect those innocent of the knowledge of magic from the denizens of evil magic.

THE MAIN CHARACTERS:

Prudence Warren: Aged 70. Much the same as the Grams we know and shake our head at, she's the strict, fiery matriarch of the Warren family. She's very much like Prue Halliwell, initially strict but because she will have suffered fewer losses than the "real Grams" she becomes more mellow and softer. She has the Elemental power of Spirit which gives her premonitions. She was a doctor but is now retired, although now she uses her skills along with potions to heal her family’s injuries.

Patience Warren: Prudence's older daughter, aged 50. Pretty much the Patty we know and love, although even more kind and caring. She functions as the "balance" of the family as Piper was in the original series, but unlike Piper Halliwell, she is the most selfless person of all and always has time to help those in need, although that often gets her in trouble. Like Prue Halliwell, she's a photographer, but unlike Prue, she works with the Salem police. She has the Elemental power of Earth which allows her to throw anything..

Paige Warren: Prudence's younger daughter, aged 40. Again, she is basically the same as her namesake, except she is Patty's sister, not Piper and Phoebe's. She's sometimes irresponsible and impulsive and not always in touch with reality. Much in the same way Prue would lecture Phoebe at being irresponsible in the original series, Prudence would be the same with this "Paige". Like Paige Matthews, she's a social worker. Paige has the Elemental power of Air, which allows her to use the wind to move herself and anyone else to wherever she wants to go.

Piper Warren: Patience's older daughter, aged 30. Again much like Piper Halliwell, but rather than being shy, she's very fiery, like later-season Piper without constantly feeling sorry for herself (although she does miss her normal life..,), and because there are no whitelighters, she never falls for one. Like Piper Halliwell, she owns her own restaurant and is a very good cook, so she's the one who makes most of the potions. She has the Elemental power of Fire, which allows her to form and throw fireballs, but like Piper Warren herself, the power isn't evil.

Phoebe Warren: Patience's younger daughter, aged 20. Also much like Phoebs Halliwell (and never like PhoeME Halliwell), but like her grandmother, mother, aunt and sister, the fact that she was born in Warren Manor has nothing to do with whether she can easily turn evil - all five have free will and can decide if they want to do good or evil. Phoebe is still in college and works on the school paper. She has always loved to write and is the one who comes up with most of the original spells. Phoebe has the Elemental power of Water which allows her to freeze molecules.

PRESS RELEASES FOR “ELEMENTAL CHARMED” FROM THE CW AND CBS-TV

"Simply Charmed Again"

Reboot From Original Creator Gets CW Pilot Orders

For a second consecutive year, the CW has handed out its first two pilot orders to a high-profile reboot of a long-running series from CBS TV Studios and another project from one of Warner Bros. TV’s top producers.

This time the network has greenlighted a new “Charmed” from the show's original creator, Constance M. Burge. The project will reunite Burge with three of her fellow writing staff: Sheryl. J Anderson and the popular team of Chris Levinson and Zach Estrin. Also joining the project is Paul Ruditis, known for his work on the popular Charmed comic series and author of several Charmed novels. Burge will act as executive producer while the others will write all of the episodes.

The CW originally tried to bring back “Charmed”, one of the signature dramas of predecessor The WB, last season, when it ordered a reimagining of the original Aaron Spelling series from the same creative auspices. It was to be set in 1976 and feature a new trio of witches. The project was rolled over to this development season.

The new “Charmed” script, penned by Anderson and Ruditis and based on a story by Burge, is set in present time. Per The CW, whose brass greenlighted the pilot shortly after getting the script, “this new dark, dramatic ‘Charmed’ reboot" of the original series centers on five women, not three, and unlike the original classic series, this new take will be incorporating the five elements (Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit).

"Elemental Charmed" Renewed for Season Two, Moves To CBS-TV

CBS-TV has picked up its first new series for next season, and it is not that new. After weeks of speculation, "'Elemental Charmed" will move from cable channel The CW to its broadcast sister network CBS, which has renewed the fantasy drama for a second season.

The pickup, which comes hours after the most recent deadline for The CW to renew freshman series, will find its new home at CBS-TV, with the likes of other old properties which have in the past few years been rebooted and redeveloped for the CBS audience, especially for those whose cable systems do not include The CW.

An ''Elemental Charmed” move to CBS-TV had been rumored for a while, with talks becoming real the last few days. A CBS pickup was contingent on finding a way to produce a show of that scale and since CBS-TV also partners The CW network, the decision to move the series should make for a smooth transition.

CBS-TV had frequently been mentioned as a suitable home for 'Elemental Charmed' because the show’s audience tending to skew older than the ones who usually watch The CW, the CBS-TV president's public comments about regretting not going after the project when it was originally pitched, and the fact that CBS-TV is owned by CBS Studio, which also co-owns part of The CW.

This is the complete opposite of what happened a few years back, when "Supergirl" was rumored to be moving from CBS-TV to The CW; this time a series originally aired on The CW is making the move.

Despite the fact that its numbers were consistent for The CW and the series would have still been ordered for a second season, they found that most of their younger core audience wasn't responding to the series, which center around three generations of a family of witches.

Producer Connie Burge explained in an interview: "Although The CW was very supportive of our show, we didn't find it connected with the younger audience, and the network felt this would have meant the series would undergo a revamp in the second season, only featuring Emmalee Thompson and Meghan Corletto, who play Piper and Phoebe, the youngest members of the Warren family, something we didn't want to do."

TBC who plays Prudence, the matriarch of the Warren family, joked to interviewers: ”I was convinced that had the series stayed on The CW, I would be out of a job, because they would have killed me off."

But TBC turned serious as she added, "The move will allow the show to still remain the staple it was on The CW; we just found that the audience connected with us older women just as much as they connected with the younger ones. I am really pleased with the move, and look forward to our show telling more great stories about the Warren women."

Paul Ruditis, one of the chief writers, relieved panicking fans, announcing that "All the ladies are coming back for Season Two, the foundation and mythology we set up in our first season will progress in Season Two. We will continue to tell great stories for these Warren women."

Ruditis also hinted that the second season might go deeper into the family lives of the Warrens. We could possibly see some backstories forming from some of our ladies.

"Elemental Charmed" is produced by Constance M. Burge in association with CBS Studios.

Classic “Charmed” stars Shannen Doherty and 'Alyssa Milano' to guest star in undisclosed roles for the season finale of 'Elemental Charmed'

The former stars of the original classic series “Charmed have both booked guest-starring roles in the series' upcoming season finale set to air May 19th.

Connie Burge, who created the classic series that starred Shannen Doherty, Holly Marie Combs, Alyssa Milano and Rose McGowan and is executive producer for the new series, had been considering bringing the former stars onto the show for some time. "I've been trying to find suitable roles for Shannen, Alyssa, Holly, and Rose. But I just couldn't find the right story. But after collaboration with Chris Levinson and Zach Estrin, who co-wrote the season finale, we think we’ve found the perfect roles for them."

Doherty revealed that she was called about appearing in "Elemental Charmed" and admits she was hesitant to take the offer. But after hearing what Burge had planned for her character, and then hearing that Burge had talked to Milano who would also be appearing. Doherty felt the timing was right, and that fans of the original classic series would really like what Burge has planned.

Milano told the press: "Just being approached was such an honor. I spent eight years of my life with 'Charmed', so this was almost like a high-school reunion, and when I heard Shannen was also going to be a part of it, I really wanted to do it. I haven't worked with Shannen in nearly 20 years, but the two of us have connected through social media for a while and I can't wait to see her again."

Burge mentioned that she hopes that other stars like Holly Marie Combs, Rose McGowan, Brian Krause and Julian McMahon could appear in the series further down the line. "I don't want to overcrowd this series with too many guest appearances, not when we already have five stars. But it's not out of the question."

Doherty and Milano will start filming their scenes for the season finale in April.

They hurry to Piper's restaurant where the employee's thoughts convince all of them that she's not the warlock - one of the other employees is and he's getting ready to set the restaurant on fire and kill all. The three must find a way to stop him with only three of the Elementals.

Meanwhile in Philadelphia, Prudence and Andrea have convinced Patience that she didn't kill Pauline. Even though they still don’t know who did the murdering, they begin to relax. Patience wants to hear more stories of Prudence and Andrea’s fun times back in the 60's and the two older women comply. But suddenly Prudence is transformed into her 19-year old self. When she finds out that the world has changed, and her husband is dead, she is determined to bring Allen back from the dead, while Patience and Andrea need to figure out how to get 70-year-old Prudence back.

Season 2, Episode 16: 'The Isaac Flower'

CONTINUAL TOUCH OF A FLOWER CAN KILL — It's springtime in Salem, and Prudence tends the Warren family garden of herbs by doing some much-needed spring planting. She asks Phoebe to go into town for some groceries and also stop at the local Wicca herbs and spices stores for more magical needs.

Phoebe finishes her list and is about to head for home when she notices a new flower shop has just opened across the street. Inside, a young woman raves about a certain 'Isaac Flower'. Seeing it, Phoebe is fascinated by it, but when she brings it home and sets it on her windowsill, she can't stop touching it and each time she does, she feels weaker. Little does she know, each time she touches it, it drains more of her energy.

The next morning, the store delivers free sample of the Isaac Flower to both Piper's restaurant and Salem Social Services and the flowers affect Piper and Paige the same way. But it’s not just them. Piper’s employees and customers and Paige’s fellow social workers and their clients are suffering the same effects.

Fortunately when Patience presents Prudence with one of the flowers, Prudence recognizes it and stops her daughter before she can touch it.

Checking their book of shadows, Prudence and Patience learn that the young woman selling the Isaac Flower is a warlock trying to use the energy trapped in the Isaac Flower to revive her mother, who was cursed a long time ago to remain in a slumber state and become one with the flowers. Doing some more research in other books, the two Warrens discover that a century ago, this warlock endangered the local forests of Salem by harming the wood nymphs.

Although the nymphs are invisible to all humans, including witches, thanks to her Elemental Power of Earth, although Patience can’t see the nymphs, she can hear and communicate with them.

But will the nymphs be willing to help when time is running for the citizens of Salem, including Paige, Piper and Phoebe who are affected by the Isaac Flowers? The warlock has put them all in trances, and summoned them to her garden. There they each present the warlock with their Isaac Flower. Even as the victim drops to the ground in a faint, the warlock transfers the energy in the flowers to her mother, hoping to break the curse by reviving her mother from her slumber.

Comic-Con: 'Elemental Charmed' to End With Season 5


The news, announced Saturday at Comic-Con, comes after stars TBC and TBC previously signaled that the end of the series was in sight.

It's official: CBS-TV's 'Elemental Charmed' will end with its upcoming fifth season.



Producers made the announcement Saturday during the show's annual trek to San Diego Comic-Con, though the decision to wrap the series created by Connie Burge — comes as little surprise.



Talk of ending the series has been a much talked about question among the writer's room for some time. Paul Ruditis told the press "we mapped out a four or five-year plan for the series after we got picked up for a second season and moved to CBS. But the only question on our minds was exactly how much story we had in us. We didn't want to keep on going when we dried up all the plots we could make." 


Stars TBC and TBC had signaled that the end of the drama was in sight. Both actors had previously indicated their plans to do one last season of the series, and indicated the idea of a possible half-season order for the fifth season is what got a couple of the stars of the show to sign beyond the original four-year-contract they all signed for when the series was first picked up to series back in 2018.

"We all have discussed it and we've made the decision that this is it," Burge told fans Saturday. "This is going to be the final season of 'Elemental Charmed'. It's bittersweet and emotional and we're all going to be crying in a minute. It's been a beautiful run.... Get ready, because it's going to be a very crazy and wild ride for these final episodes."



The final season also will be a shortened one, consisting of 12 episodes and bringing the series to a total of 100 episodes. The show returns Sunday, Septemer 11. at 8 p.m.
Production is expected to begin on Monday, August 8th, 2022. It's a little later than usual, due to the shorten order, they were able to be more flexible, and two of the show's stars were still off busy shooting some movies.


“'Elemental Charmed' has meant so much to so many fans around the world and has meant so much to all of us at CBS,” network president of CBS-TV said in a release shortly after the news broke at Comic-Con. “I am a huge fan of the show myself, and I’ve seen every episode. The relationship and bond between these five stars have been such a blessing. So I am very happy that we can give Connie and her writers the chance to finish their story the way they have envisioned, and to give viewers a fantastic conclusion to five spectacular seasons.”



Saturday's Comic-Con panel ended with a sweet video tribute and Burge's final message to fans: "Thank you for joining us on the ride with these five amazing women, and I cannot wait to close the doors on the Elemental Witches for this final streach of 12 episodes"

'Shannen Doherty and Alyssa Milano set to return for 'Elemental Charmed's final season'

Following the news, last weekend at Comic-Con that 'Elemental Charmed' was coming to an end with one more season. It is now officially confirmed that fans can expect to see Shannen Doherty and Alyssa Milano reprise their roles of Jenna and Mary Ann Warren in the final season for the last time, which starts production for the final season on Monday, August 8th, 2022.

It comes as no surprise since both actresses have previously made regular guest appearances on the series at least once every season. It was only a matter of signing them both and securing them at the same time. 

Connie Burge revealed "I wanted to announce this at Comic-Con last weekend, but the announcement of our show ending, we wanted to make sure that we were taking a second to reflect on our show's legacy and let that sink in and let our fans prepare for goodbye, before we went and revealed all the returning faces for the last season".

Shannen Doherty later spoke about her return and the shows ending in a recent press interview "I'm excited to come back one last time to 'Elemental Charmed', I've enjoyed being a part of this amazing series, and I'm so proud of the work Connie, the writers, and the cast have produced over the years. Me and Alyssa have enjoyed getting to play the parts of Mary Ann and Jenna. So I'm looking forward to my return."

Alyssa also made a comment in reference to the showing ending "I'm sad to see this show ending since I'm enjoyed popping in and out of the series for the few years, but I'm excited that me and Shannen will get a chance to be apart of the final year. 

Burge didn't reveal any hints about what role the two will play for the final time. But did let fans know it will be worth it.

Both Shannen and Alyssa will appear in the opening episode of Season 5 to kickstart the beginning of the final 12 episodes of 'Elemental Charmed' which will premiere on September 11th, 2022.

We all work so well as a team. Collaborating, drawing up press releases, combining ideas and then the editing. We've got our flow going. 

You are so right about that! Doing this as a team is so much more fun than working on something like this on our own. This is just SO much more fun than wasting valuable time griping about the rip-off! Fans who like it are welcomed to it. Those who don't are more than welcomed to join our daily fun!

I like this one, Summer – but I LOVE your next one! Here’s my edit on that one:

ELEMENTAL WITCHES (TV-14, DLV) (HDTV)

Season 1, Episode 11, 'Warlocks vs. Witches Family Feud'

TWO WARLOCKS, ONE FAMILY, ONE DEEP DARK SECRET — While volunteering at a local senior center with Prudence, Phoebe bonds with Margaret Baker, a kind, gentle and innocent old lady who is known for her card games and stories from her younger years. At the same time, Kathy Baker joins the team at Salem Social Services and when she finds out that Kathy went to the same college, Paige makes quick friends with her.

Meanwhile, while taking pictures at the scene of a murder, Patience learns from the cops that people with the last name of Baker are being killed. She also finds out from a friend of hers who knows her family secret that the Bakers are a family of witches.

What the Warrens don’t know is that neither Margaret or Kathy are actually Bakers – they’re warlocks who are working together. Margaret isn't even an old lady, but using it as a disguise, and Kathy never went to college. Margaret is looking for an old lady in the senior center who witnessed an event that happened many decades ago while Kathy is using SSS to find the other members of the Baker family.

Baker is a common name in Salem and not all Bakers are related and most aren’t witches. Can Patience, Paige and Piper find and protect the rest of the family, and can Prudence and Phoebe figure out who’s the warlock and who’s the witch?

Comic-Con: 'Elemental Charmed' to End With Season 5


The news, announced Saturday at Comic-Con, comes after stars TBC and TBC previously signaled that the end of the series was in sight.

It's official: CBS-TV's 'Elemental Charmed' will end with its upcoming fifth season.



Producers made the announcement Saturday during the show's annual trek to San Diego Comic-Con, though the decision to wrap the series created by Connie Burge — comes as little surprise.



Talk of ending the series has been a much talked about question among the writer's room for some time. Paul Ruditis told the press "we mapped out a four or five-year plan for the series after we got picked up for a second season and moved to CBS. But the only question on our minds was exactly how much story we had in us. We didn't want to keep on going when we dried up all the plots we could make." 


Stars TBC and TBC had signaled that the end of the drama was in sight. Both actors had previously indicated their plans to do one last season of the series, and indicated the idea of a possible half-season order for the fifth season is what got a couple of the stars of the show to sign beyond the original four-year-contract they all signed for when the series was first picked up to series back in 2018.

"We all have discussed it and we've made the decision that this is it," Burge told fans Saturday. "This is going to be the final season of 'Elemental Charmed'. It's bittersweet and emotional and we're all going to be crying in a minute. It's been a beautiful run.... Get ready, because it's going to be a very crazy and wild ride for these final episodes."



The final season also will be a shortened one, consisting of 12 episodes and bringing the series to a total of 100 episodes. The show returns Sunday, Septemer 11. at 8 p.m.
Production is expected to begin on Monday, August 8th, 2022. It's a little later than usual, due to the shorten order, they were able to be more flexible, and two of the show's stars were still off busy shooting some movies.


“'Elemental Charmed' has meant so much to so many fans around the world and has meant so much to all of us at CBS,” network president of CBS-TV said in a release shortly after the news broke at Comic-Con. “I am a huge fan of the show myself, and I’ve seen every episode. The relationship and bond between these five stars have been such a blessing. So I am very happy that we can give Connie and her writers the chance to finish their story the way they have envisioned, and to give viewers a fantastic conclusion to five spectacular seasons.”



Saturday's Comic-Con panel ended with a sweet video tribute and Burge's final message to fans: "Thank you for joining us on the ride with these five amazing women, and I cannot wait to close the doors on the Elemental Witches for this final streach of 12 episodes"

Great press release for our final season announcement.

'Shannen Doherty and Alyssa Milano set to return for 'Elemental Charmed's final season'

Following the news, last weekend at Comic-Con that 'Elemental Charmed' was coming to an end with one more season. It is now officially confirmed that fans can expect to see Shannen Doherty and Alyssa Milano reprise their roles of Jenna and Mary Ann Warren in the final season for the last time, which starts production for the final season on Monday, August 8th, 2022.

It comes as no surprise since both actresses have previously made regular guest appearances on the series at least once every season. It was only a matter of signing them both and securing them at the same time. 

Connie Burge revealed "I wanted to announce this at Comic-Con last weekend, but the announcement of our show ending, we wanted to make sure that we were taking a second to reflect on our show's legacy and let that sink in and let our fans prepare for goodbye, before we went and revealed all the returning faces for the last season".

Shannen Doherty later spoke about her return and the shows ending in a recent press interview "I'm excited to come back one last time to 'Elemental Charmed', I've enjoyed being a part of this amazing series, and I'm so proud of the work Connie, the writers, and the cast have produced over the years. Me and Alyssa have enjoyed getting to play the parts of Mary Ann and Jenna. So I'm looking forward to my return."

Alyssa also made a comment in reference to the showing ending "I'm sad to see this show ending since I'm enjoyed popping in and out of the series for the few years, but I'm excited that me and Shannen will get a chance to be apart of the final year. 

Burge didn't reveal any hints about what role the two will play for the final time. But did let fans know it will be worth it.

Both Shannen and Alyssa will appear in the opening episode of Season 5 to kickstart the beginning of the final 12 episodes of 'Elemental Charmed' which will premiere on September 11th, 2022.

I'm still trying to come up with ideas for our new S4/S5 and putting them together.

But for now, I put together another press release for a standalone. Looking at the calendar, I figured our own Friday the 13th was in order, so I've placed it during season 2. I'm not using Barbas but came up with my own villain and again making her a Demoness, not a Demon. 

I'm glad it's not a Barbas or a Demon of fear. A Demoness is good for our Friday the 13th episode. Don't bring her back though. Once is enough. Please!

She most certainly will be only in one episode. Don't worry, Ruth. Unless others here want too, I'll go with the majority. When I wrote it, it was of course just a standalone, with no follow-up or return for her.

Well, as we discussed in that other thread, I don't think 'From Fear to Eternity' was written to be shown on Friday the 13th, but rather to be the 13th episode and possibly the series finale had Classic Charmed only gone 13 episodes. But congrats in realizing that December 13, 2019 will be a Friday the 13th. That means our Sunday, December 15, 2019 would be the perfect day for a Friday the 13th episode - the last episode before our Christmas break. Keeping that in mind, I changed your episode number to what would fit on that date. Here's my edit of your press release:

Thanks Es for changing it, it now has a date. YAY!!!

Our press-release reporters have done SUCH a fantastic job since the last time I updated, I simply *have* to include their updates! Along that line, I've taken out all of the actors' names except for Shannen and Alyssa who we agree will only star in one episode each season, the way Jennifer 'Grams" Rhodes did in Classic Charmed.

For anyone who wants to have fun continuing to cast Classic Charmed actors by doing Elemental Charmed fantasy-style rather than alternate-universe style, I've copied all of our previous casting into the Casting Thread.

Great work for the updates. Good suggestion taking out the names. That can be a fun thing to do in our Casting Thread now.

I’ll admit I did this before I read the comments on the new setup, so if this didn’t answer all of your questions or if you think your suggestion would work better than my guesses, be sure to re-ask them and hopefully SummerReading or Pheebs (or someone else, although I think they know what’s going on more than the rest of us…I admit I guessed in a number of spots, so if I guessed wrong, I hope they let me know!) will answer them!

WOW Es, your guesses were pretty accurate. Most of what you edited, really is what I was thinking. How about you Pheebs.

WOW! I just can’t believe we’ve come this far after only three weeks – one month this Friday! Everyone who has been part of this, give yourself a huge pat on the back!

WE SO ROCK!!!

Three Weeks, and nearly a Month. I cannot believe how much effort we have done since then. I'm so proud of us all.

I went for a little hike today, and I couldn't stop thinking about EC. And I came up with an idea for a press release inspired by the wood walk I went on.

ELEMENTAL WITCHES (TV-14, DLV) (HDTV)

Season 2, Episode 4: 'If You Go Down to the Woods...'

DON'T GO ALONE DOWN THE TRAIL OF THE WAILING CHILD — Patience arrives at the scene of a crime where two children are found murdered deep in the woods near a local camp, the local campers believe the legend of the Blair Witch. But when Patience tells her family about it, Prudence and Paige laugh it off as nothing but a myth that turned made money in fiction films and books. But when Patience convinces her family that, people are being murdered at the same time, every year for the last 70 years, then does the laughter turn serious.

The Warren's soon investigate to prove if this legend is real or not. They eventually learn that the Blair Witch Legend isn't even a Witch or even a warlock at all, but really the spirit of a wailing child. This young boy has been haunting the local camp at the same time every year for the past 50 years. 

Eventually, Patience's investigation takes her to a local cabin deep in the woods, where she crosses path with another suspicious female resident in the cabin, who vanishes when she enters.
