I wouldn't describe Charmed as BAD just not all that great... I watch it when I'm in a vegetative state and too lazy to pop in a Whedon series DVD.
The one thing I do LOVE about the show is the opening theme music. Is there a Charmed CD out with that tune on it? I do remember thinking a couple times what a shame it is to have such a great theme song wasted on a mediocre show...

"Appears they've canceled the show and we're still here. What does that make us?"
"Big damn junkies, Sir!"
"Ain't we just."

Interestingly, there is a Charmed soundtrack cd, at least in the US. I don't know whether it's available in the UK. However, don't buy it. Before the Charmed tv show, there was a much better movie called "The Craft". That movie also has a soundtrack cd out with the exact same song on it as the theme song used for Charmed. Why get "The Craft" soundtrack instead of the Charmed soundtrack when they both have the same song on them, you might ask? Simple, the rest of the music on "The Craft" cd is similar in quality to that theme song, making the whole cd really good. On the Charmed cd, you'd basically be getting that one great song combined with a bunch of other stuff of considerably lesser quality.
Funny, the comparison of the two cds also applies to the show and the movie. I would describe "The Craft" as "Joss-like", whereas I would describe Charmed as "Joss-free".
Apathy on the Rise. No One Cares.

It is amazing how many people hate Charmed yet have the ability to tear it to shreds in some detail.
I have never managed a full episode; it is even worse than Stargate and that is saying something!
(Please no violent assualts on my person, just saying is all)
I really should get me a signature

I know what you mean, but like MSCKAREN I tend to watch it when am in persistent vegetative hung-over state on Sundays when I just wouldn't do justice to Mr Whedon because I can't focus or concentrate on a plot. I also tend to read a book at the same time...
Having said that I just watched Charmageddon (really, just for the high class name) on Living TV this weekend and think I may have over dosed severely - someone take me to casualty (NOT the TV programme but the nice shiny building with people who can extract my memories of the Charmed women and leave me fresh and clean)....

It takes a special calibre of writer to work each title into a pun...

Thanks for the tip, Bikisdad. I did like The Craft, too, so I'll look for that soundtrack. 
I've found a lot of great music via soundtracks. Some of the best are from less than stellar movies like Valentine and The Cursed.
I discovered Evanescence through the DareDevil soundtrack even though I've never seen that movie all the way through.
