Hi, Im new here but i found this topic excellent. Well, I love Shannen as Prue. I love the way Prue Piper and Phoebe remind you of sisters. And let's not forget that we own this to Constance M. Burge.
So, before i answer to your question, I would like to ask: where is she now? Which where the reasons she really quit charmed? It was HER freaking show, for crying out loud! I hate Kern and the way he trashed Charmed, and maybe Shannen won't answer us, but I think it's because she foresaw how much dull the show would become with Cole in all the time, and Kern as the leader writing stories. Shannen, I love you, and you may not wanna answer, but I personally believe these are the reasons you left.
I have nothing with Paige, but for me, Charmed without Prue, Piper, Phoebe and Connie, doesn't exist. That's the reason I stick to the first three seasons, especially the first two.
My belief is that, if the girls found out about Paige, she would be just a witch, with no warren active powers(since the power were already given to the first three), and whitelighter. Somehow Paige would lose her witch side(maybe die by an evil?) and she would become full whitelighter. The Charmed One's whitelighter!
. That would be great and we would have all the 4 great ladies on our screens.
But whatever may have happened, without Connie there, Charmed wouldn't be the same. So don't just ask about Prue, ask about her too.
And I insist, and I would like Shannen to answer us, if she knows: where is Connie now?
PS i have my own fanfiction about this idea(Prue won't die, they find Paige later). If anyone is interested, just pm to give you the link. I don't want to spam.
