Ahhhh, Season 6

As all of you know, I’m currently in the midst of posting season 6 moments on the blog, and somewhere between the mysterious creature from the future and the Ghostly plane in which Piper and Leo find each other again, I realized what an incredible season it was. I understand from countless forums that several fans had disputes with season 6, mainly due to the spilt of the power couple, but in actuality, it was that ache that made the season. Our precious Charmed mother returns from “up there” with no pain, a husband lost, a fatherless child and a demon-crazed whitelighter. She fights her own feelings, she fights demons, she fights for her life and just as it seems that Leo and her find each other once again, Leo goes and spins the wheel by returning to his heavenly duties. There is aches between Leo and Piper, worry between Phoebe and Paige, pain/mistrust between Leo and Chris and Chris and Wyatt. The rainbow of feelings is crawling all over the Manor and fueling each battle, blazing all verbal quips and sisterly spats. Here are several of the moments from season 6.

- Piper speaks her mind via Phoebe when the sisters break Leo out of Valhalla, leading to the “You left us, didn’t you?” speech. Heartbreaker!
- Leo and Piper get into a heated discussion on the Cleaners. Poor Leo.
- The sisters’ magical mayhem to return Wyatt. After all, who would want to spend the next 50 years cleaning up the Halliwells’ magic. Not I!
- Bianca tracks back through the years in order to get Chris, her fiance, whose life is threaten by the very person Chris came back to save -- Wyatt. *One of the most revealing episodes of future Chris. I have never seen Chris sharing so many emotions…love, pain, anger, etc.
- Oh, don’t forget the moment Leo and Piper spend in the Ghostly plan that saves their love, saves Chris’s life and puts Charmed back on track.
- All I gotta say -- Leo: “I am not going to choose between you and Wyatt, Chris. I can’t.” Chris: “You don’t have to, dad. Find Gideon and you save us both.” Tears.

Ahhhh, season 6, how I miss you. Please feel free to post your comments or other moments of emotion from season six.

The Leo and Chris moment in season six's ender was amazing. I cried so hard, and even now it's so sad as I remember Paige's tear and Leo's rage when Chris dissapears.

I agree Taylor. I think Leo's and Chris' reactions were great, even Paige's. Sad, but great. And why not? Chris had already grown on the audience since Chris-Crossed. We understand him. He's no longer the mystery from season five's end. Chris is a Halliwell and that makes all the difference in the world.

I CRIED, too. I think that was one of the best episodes with Chris. Just mainly because of the father/son interacting. I love Drew, I hope to see more of him soon. In whatever.

I kind of enjoyed Drew's performance with James Read better. That whole grandfather/grandson relationship was unique and heartacheing with the knowledge that Chris didn't have his mom since age 14 and never had his dad. And plus, his brother torchered him.

It was SAD to hear that Piper had died when Chris was 14, but hearing that Victor got used to orbing concerning how he feels about Wlighters was worth some joy.

I thought that Hyde School Reunion was a pretty awesome episode! Victor definitely had some great lines and moments throughout the entire hour, and he was great at helping Piper and Chris come closer. Which just made the last scene with Piper, Chris and Wyatt incredibly cute.

Didn't like the Phoebe parts, but Piper ROCKED! She was a mother in that episode...well, she always is. But I really felt like Chris was her child, not just baby Wyatt. And it was hilarious with Chris saying that he had scappers on his tail and Piper responded with something of the sort, "Oh, honey. I think we have some ointment." LOL.

Ow, another great moment is in Spin City. Leo and Chris do some really great verbal battles as well as physical fist-to-face interaction. My favorite line of Leo's in this episode is: "...why don't you tell me what I did to you, huh? What, did I, uh, miss a school play? Did I take away your favorite toy? Huh? Did I play favorites with Wyatt?" That just screams AWESOME!!!! And a little mean.
