Took something from season one and made it better.

Morality Bites proved the show could take risks, but it's not one I prefer. I think it's a bit underwhelming, with the way it gets so ambitious and safe at the same one. This one however, exceeds all your expectations. The whole miss Hellfire storyline is great. It brought Barabas back, and redeemed how ill-handled his introduction in season 1 was. « Mrs. Hellfire » is an inventive episode, and was different from what Charmed usually did so far. Darryl finally becoming the sisters ally, and in on their secret, was very satisfying. Prue's new power, astral projection, is introduced and she's at her best all episode long. She has a new love interest, played Antonio Sabato Jr and great outfits throughout... There's also an improvement in the special effects era, which was kind of surprising compared to what the show used to offer in that department. And that little touch of humor we like, with the annoying wannabe witch Phoebe and Darryl saved. It's the kind of episode that showed how off to a good start season two was.
