is a substitute season for the original season that a few fans
came together to recreate due to the disappointment the original

What do terms such as INT.,
EXT., CUT-TO, etc. mean?
- These are the basic terms
you need to know when you are reading script form. I'm sure you
may know some or all of them, but incase you are unfamiliar with
any of the terms below I have provided there meanings.
-
- INT: interior, between doors
EXT: exterior, outside doors
CUT TO: when there is cutting between scenes
FADE IN: opening acts, when the black screen fades away
FADE OUT: | BLACK OUT: closing acts, screen fading into
black
DISSLOVE TO: a scene transition in which the first scene
is slowly replaced by the second scene
CONT'D: continues. There is something between before the
character continues to speak. A beat, or does something, etc.
It's not the second character's turn to speak yet.
- O.S: off screen, can't see the person who speaks,
just hear him from out of the frame
V.O.: voice over, dialogue/narration that takes place
or continues even though the scene does not contain the actor
or character who is speaking

Could I write an episode
and send it in?
- It all depends on the decision
of the Creator. For now check out the Staff section to
check for any available openings. A link to that section is located
to the the left of the layout. We will listen, however, to all
suggestions that can be sent to the Webmaster, webmaster@charmedtvs.com.

Where can I read previously
posted episodes?
- The alternate season sections
contain links to all episodes that have aired here at the site.
Each episode will be kept in the according sections, Alternate
Season 5 or Alternate Season 6.

Are you just doing an alternate
season 5 and 6 or will there be a 7th?
- It's completely up to the
Webmaster/Creator. We've completed the alternate season 5 and
currently in the works is the current season [alternate season
6]. As for a alternate season 7, it's very unlikely at this time.

Where can I post some feedback?
- All feedback can be sent to
the Creator and the Writing staff. You can also post feedback
at the Guestbook
or Forum.
