Based on a series of novels by Jim Butcher, the weekly, hour-long Sci Fi Channel series The Dresden Files starred former 24 regular Paul Blackthorne as Harry Dresden, a Chicago-based private eye with a unique gift. Put simply, Harry was a genuine, bona-fide wizard--indeed, the only wizard who advertised in the Yellow Pages. Blessed (?) with the ability to cast spells, mix potions, fortell the future and alter fate--at least within the limits set down by the High Council of Wizards--Harry put his talents to practical use by investigating crime cases involving the paranormal, for a fee of 500 bucks a day plus expenses for those who could afford his services, but occasionally working gratis for needy souls who'd been caught in the crossfire of the Black Arts. Harry's chief assistant and spiritual adviser (in every sense of the word) was Bob (Terrence Mann), a misplaced ghost who was doomed to walk the earth for all eternity--and apparently, to dredge up clues and follow leads. Also on hand was cyical Chicago cop Connie Murphy (Valerie Cruz), who, though she suspected Harry of being a charlatan, begrudgingly called upon his services whenever she was up against an "unusual" case. Debuting January 12, 2007, The Dresden Files was originally conceived as a theatrical feature, but was converted into a weekly TV show after the release of another, similar film, Constantine. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Working in concert with a death-obsessed alchemist (John Kassir), Zankou (Oded Fehr) begins savagely attacking innocents in order to render the Charmed Ones vulnerable. Zankou's latest victim is Phoebe's fellow grad student Tim (Colin Egglesfield), who drops dead at her feet. Convinced that Tim's demise is entirely her fault (she has in fact been "accused" by the dead man's spirit), Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) asks Daryl (Dorian Gregory) to investigate the phenomenon -- while Zankou mounts his next and even more horrible offense. Meanwhile, Paige (Rose McGowan) senses that her new student Joanna (Laura Regan) has the "wrongest" boyfriend of all time, and Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Leo (Brian Krause) forget their past differences to plan a birthday party for baby Chris. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) dons some revealing harem duds when she is forced to take the place of a genie that she has released from a bottle. Whitelighter Chris (Drew Fuller), knowing full well that he'll never be born unless he reunites his future parents, Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Leo (Brian Krause), asks the genie-fied Phoebe to help him in this endeavor -- but things don't work out entirely as planned. Meanwhile, Paige (Rose McGowan) begs Richard (Balthazar Getty) to purge himself of his obsession with his inborn magic. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

The reptile demon Saleel (Dominic Fumusa) is methodically killing leprechauns and stealing their gold, the better to spread bad luck throughout the world. When Paige (Rose McGowan) comes to the rescue of leprechaun Seamus Fitzpatrick (Mark Povinelli), the little man rewards the Charmed Ones with more good luck than they can ever possibly handle! Perhaps inevitably, this plot development leads to a musical performance by guest star Pat Benatar. ~ All Movie Guide

When her new boss, Larry (Johnny Sneed), loses his soul to a demon, Paige (Rose McGowan) is forced into an unholy agreement, one that will undoubtedly cause far more harm than good. In other developments: baby Wyatt seems to be using his inherent magic skills to sabotage his mother Piper's (Holly Marie Combs) social life. Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) is forced to collaborate with her rival columnist at the "Bay Mirror." And in their ongoing efforts to protect Wyatt from demonic harm, Chris (Drew Fuller) and Leo (Brian Krause) are hurtled back to the prehistoric era. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Elizabeth Gracen guest stars as the Vampire Queen, who hopes to supplant the demon-possessed Cole (Julian McMahon) as ruler of the Underworld. To do this, the queen must shift the balance of power by turning Paige (Rose McGowan) against her half sisters, Charmed Ones Piper (Holly Marie Combs) and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano). Meanwhile, Phoebe is beginning to exhibit the signs of morning sickness -- indicating that the plan to impregnate her with Cole's evil seed is right on schedule! ~ All Movie Guide

In her efforts to make up her mind whether or not to marry Cole (Julian McMahon), Phoebe (Alyssa Milano) casts a spell. In a twinkling, Phoebe is confronted with her past and future selves (played respectively by Samantha Goldstein and Frances Bay). What the "present" Phoebe doesn't know at this point is that Cole is now possessed by The Source of All Evil -- while The Seer (Debbi Morgan) plans to vanquish both The Source and the Charmed Ones and take over the Underworld. ~ All Movie Guide
