I think I've only seen the first three episodes of the new show. I was not all that impressed. Yes, it's very difficult to avoid comparing it to the original, but really, if it weren't for the original, I'm not sure I would be giving it as much of a chance as I have. I will watch more episodes, because of the original, but the comments they have made about the original still leave a sour taste in my mouth and by the end of the first episode I couldn't stand one of the three sisters. By the end of the second, I was down to one sister I could even tolerate and I didn't like any of the supporting cast except maybe that one guy who is a friend of Macy's (Macy being the only sister I can really stand after three episodes). As a result, although I will check out more episodes, I just don't think I will keep watching it ultimately.

Now the comics are a totally different thing. I absolutely love season nine and Paul Ruditis job as writer. I'm not as found of Pat Shand's work in season ten and the five issues from Dynamite are. . . not. . . they are not in the same timeline. It's confusing, because basically the writer there decided she didn't care about continuity, so basically they are in seasons 4-6 all at once. It's after Cole is gone, but before Piper is pregnant with Wyatt (which is completely not possible). The story itself is kind of interesting, but you cannot try to place it in time, because it doesn't work.

Two and eight, huh. That's an interesting combo. My favorite is season one, but that has a lot to do with being an Andy fan. Some of my favorite episodes are from seasons two and six (I like the really corny The Power of Three Blondes that is hated on by a lot of people). ''The Truth Is Out There. . . and It Hurts'' is another favorite that I think is underappreciated.
