What Will Charmed Season 4 Be About?
There are sure to be some big changes in Season 4. Seasons 2 and 3 received some backlash from fans and as a result showrunnersLiz KrugerandCraig Shapirohave been replaced byJeffrey Lieber,Joey Falco, andNicki Rennafor the upcoming season. Audiences are excited about the change in crew and are asking to see more spells and magic in future episodes.
In Season 3, the Vera sisters faced off against The Whispering Evil that was expelled from Jordan using the last spell cast with The Power Of Three. In the final episode Macy got her hands on a deadly lichen, the only thing that is toxic to their enemy, but when doing so, she became infected by The Whispering Evil herself and decided to ingest the poisonous plant. Macy revealed it wasn’t the lichen that killed her though, but rather the death of The Whispering Evil taking place inside her, exploding and attacking her cells.
In the original series, the oldest sister Prue iskilled by a demon, which is loosely mirrored in the reboot with Macy’s death. This could mean that the future of the trio could be drawn from the plot of the 1998 series.
With their eldest sister Macy now gone, the two remaining sisters Mel and Maggie are wondering if their loss could mean the end of the Power Of Three. In Season 4, Mel and Maggie learn thatanother good witch existsand with an unknown dark and powerful force coming they set out to find her on a witch hunt of their own.
Audiences are wondering how Harry will cope with the love of his life being gone. Before Macy’s death, the two were married in a dream by the Guardian, who states they are spiritually wed and eternally bound in love through all dimensions. Macy, though, tells Harry that he will love again before she goes to the light. Audiences hope to see Harry find some sort of peace with the love of his life unable to return regardless of timeline paradoxes. And speaking of timeline paradoxes, fans are curious as to what will come of the apocalypse and Mel’s future baby. Some are theorizing that if the apocalypse never happened then future Mel wouldn’t have come to give present-day Mel her baby to keep safe. But, since she did give Mel her baby, many are wondering what that means for the future and if this hints that an apocalypse is coming regardless of the sisters trapping the Source in a necklace and hiding the broken pieces.
On a lighter note, audiences also hope to see what will come of the romantic relationship between Mel and Ruby following the magical allergy that kept them apart, as well as how Maggie and Jordan’s relationship will fare with Maggie constantly having to push Jordan away for his safety. In the final episode of Season 3, Jordan unlocked a new power that will likely play a big part in the upcoming season.
