Charmed Role Reversal has been my creative outlet, a chance to do something that I felt I would enjoy but had never done.

For eight seasons, the Halliwells, and the actresses who portray them, had a small corner in my world. Never getting the proper promotion by the WB network, nor the appropriate coverage by the press, nor the slightest recognition at Emmy time, Charmed nevertheless developed a substantial, loyal and enthusiastic following.

People who recognized Charmed’s qualities: initially of its concept, often of its writing, always of its acting. And of its characters, who underneath it all were really normal, everyday people trying to lead normal lives. Just as we do. Which made them realistic and believable. And that, in turn, allowed us to recognize, relate to and accept the relationships and events portrayed that regularly touched our emotions.

Though Charmed is out of production, it is not gone. There are episodes that can be watched again and stories continuing to be written that will keep Charmed and the Halliwell sisters vibrant and thus viable. I hope Charmed Role Reversal will contribute to that.
