So I guess there are no humans on this show anymore, huh? Just magical creatures.

What is the point of changing Harry into a Necromancer? We know Macy isn't coming back. I just think they don't want to do the orbing effect anymore. They haven't shown it once this season.

I think they're just trying to figure out what to do with Harry now that Macy is gone. On the OG show, Leo wasn't just their whitelighter, he was married to Piper, & they were obviously trying to run the same plot again. The smart thing to have done with Macy is have her soul or spirit or whatever go into someone else's body, & then they could have had an explanation for recasting her & been able to keep the Harry plot. But since they didn't, now they have nothing to do with Harry since they went & made him mortal again. The whole thing is a mess, & I'm hoping that the Tallyman is actually gone because he was a stupid villain.

I was a bit bored by this episode, which is a shame since this season seemed to have improved from last year.  Maybe it was because of the disjointed structure with the 3 unrelated subplots.  The father had never interested me, so I'm not glad he seems to be sticking around.  As said above, we know Macy isn't coming back for a cameo, so having Harry try to get to Macy to talk to him is just pointless.  The guy with the singing power was annoying, suddenly buying all the crap about the Charmed Ones.  The death of the Tallyman also felt very anti-climatic.  Is the bartender going to be the big bad now?  She was even less distinctive than the Tallyman.  I wasn't paying much attention... did they find out anything worthwhile visiting the wife of that conspiracy theorist?
