I do NOT see Prue wanting to bump somebody off! Where do people get this crap? Prue's the one who goes after demons, not after innocents. She thinks Paige is a demon, sure, but someone who ORBS??? The one who bumps off people she doesn't like or thinks is after her is PIPER, not Prue! C'mon, Astral; I thought you knew better than that!
And what I'm saying is that after Prue comes out of her coma, they find Paige (or Paige finds them), and she becomes a friend - no need to find out she's a sister until she ends up using her powers during the very last episode, four seasons after Prue wakes up.
Above all else - NO POWER OF FOUR! If all three of the Halliwells are alive, Paige does NOT get her power to move things with her mind and does NOT become Charmed! Ability to orb, yes. The rest, no.

Woah, you two, settle down! Lol
Anyways, it would be interesting, but if Prue were in a coma and she saw all the events of S4-S8, she would already know who Paige really is. Would she keep it a secret to herself? Tell her sisters? or tell Paige right away?
That would be a very interesting plotlines and I want to see it myself now.

First, I'm sorry, Astral, please accept my apology. I totally missed the face - my bad - but you can see why I was so shocked. It's just because so many fans think that if Prue came back that she'd want to get rid of Paige for replacing her, which is *so* ridiculous that it hit one of my buttons, and I was so sure you *weren't* one of those fans. So my bad.
But, Seer, that's a great question - if Prue was in a coma and saw all of the events of S4-6, what would she do. Personally I think she'd rip Piper and Phoebe up one side and down the other for doing such horrible jobs as Charmed Ones and congratulate Paige for doing such a good job of keeping the Charmed Ones going.
Another question for that - if Prue was in a coma, would Paige get Prue's powers? I say, no, because although incapacitated, she's still alive - the powers are still hers. And if not, would Prue get them back? I say, yes, they were originally hers; they should go back to her. Sorry, Paige. YOu always were just the substitute, and the starter always gets her job back when she comes back from an injury. Like I keep saying, no such thing as a Power of Four.
Now if Piper wanted to give up her powers and give them to Paige (I can't see that working any other way), sure. But I'll bet once Prue is back, Piper wouldn't want to. As usual, Piper just likes to complain.

Paige could still help with the demons. She can take Leo's spot as the supernatrual Taxi. I can also see Prue warning Cole and Leo not to go to the dark-side, since she would see Cole as the Source and Leo as an Avatar. She would also see Billie as well, but we can leave her as Prue's imagination and not a real person...

OOOO! Billie and S8 as Prue's imagination as she slowly comes out of the premonition! LOVE it! And *ADORE* the idea of her being able to warn Cole and Leo about their downfall, *if* both are around. Can we hope that Prue could talk Piper into talking the Elders into letting Leo have his powers back, or if not, then send him back to his own time so he doesn't have to be a useless errand boy?
And I agree totally that if the sisters find out that Paige has orbing powers, letting her take over as supernatural taxi and doctor would work great. As guide, no, but Leo hasn't been a guide since "Oh, My Goddess"! My guess is they no longer need one, or at least, *think* they don't...

Well it would also depend on what kind of world Prue woudl wake up to. 2-4years is a long time to be asleep and the world can change a lot during that time. The Power Of 3 wouldve been inactive, so Piper and Phoebe could have been fighting a losing battle, or pull a Buffy and try to have the demon world think that everything is fine w/Prue (by glamouring) and having a hard job keeping appearances.

You're kinda mixing up two different scenarios - 1) Prue's in a coma and she gets to see what's going on while she's out (so the world she comes to in is the one we saw in S8 or S7 if S8 is just her hallucination) and 2) Prue comes out of her coma to what happened in S4 and Paige is found as a friend but not a sister until the end. (where Paige can become the supernatural doctor/taxcab) And in both cases, Paige only has her whitelighter powers because Prue still has hers, so neither is the one we saw on the show..

A writer could also expand on Prue's powers. She should be the one to get nartual empathy instead of Phoebe. I always felt Prue connected more with people than Phoebe did, which is sort of ironic for her character.

Well you cant have her be in a coma, wake up 2yrs later and everything is the same unless you have Paige already be part of the group.
Unless you have her wake up sometime during 2001.

It all depends. Like I said, for the person in the coma, a day can seem like 5 years. So she could wake up at the same time that in the Original Universe Piper was reading the spell that attracted Paige and *think* that four years had already passed. Which is EXACTLY what I would like to see the last five years be. If Bobby Ewing could wake up in the shower and his wife Pam finds out that the entire year (season) was nothing but her dream of his death, something like that could certainly happen on Charmed.

Thats why I said it depends on how long it is she is in a coma for. If its just for a month or so then ya, that works. I am saying if it were for longer then things would change.

If it was that long, I would think some demon would be smart enough to unplug Prue's life support long enough for her to die. I can't see The Source allowing anything less.
Oh, wait. We're talking about Kern's demons...yeah, I guess you do have to figure out what would happen. I still think that although they might meet Paige and she could use her whitelighter powers to become their magical taxi/doctor, she couldn't become Charmed and couldn't gain Prue's powers. Not while Prue is still alive.
*sigh* Who knows? Maybe that's why her sisters would eventually have to pull the plug - so The Charmed Ones could be reconstituted. What a decision THAT would be! And for something like that, yeah, for that I could see Prue's ghost being PISSED!

Lmao, that will be the greatest "WTF" moment in Charmed!
Still, with Piper's exploding power and Cole alongside them they can hold of the demons long enough for Prue to wake.

But actually that's a really interesting idea. Would Phoebe and Piper pull the plug for the greater good. They were prepared to lose her a season earlier. And it wasn't until after Prue died that Piper's loyalties shifted from innocents to family.
So in that position, could the sisters really let Prue go in order to continue their destiny?
I think ultimately they would. It would be a hard decision but I think the sisters would make the right choice. And perhaps things would of turned out differently had they had that choice - maybe they wouldn't of become the selfish, self centered witches they became!

You could very well be right about that. And, who knows? Maybe due to that, Prue's ghost would be proud rather than pissed.
Although if it were Kern and Alyssa in charge, the plug would've been pulled after two eppis -- at the most!

Although if it were Kern and Alyssa in charge, the plug would've been pulled after two eppis -- at the most! I could see that too. No, no that is no good. It would be better if they had a whole season to decide. It would make the perfect season finale.

But I can't see Kern and Alyssa letting Prue have that much importance - the problem of mixing the character with the actor - what truly happened. And, of course, trying to do that without showing Shannen's image would've been even harder. But since we're talking comic books not the show (aren't we??), this is definitely something the comic books could've/should've done.

If Prue's ghost made a cameo would she still have her powers like Grams or will only Paige have powers?

She should still have her powers since Paige didnt take them from Prue and Prue was dead before Paige was activated. But I dont think that Prue would be able to affect the power of 3 now that she is dead, she would have to be living.
