Innocent Until Proven Guilty Review

Well, that was a confusing episode. I spent the first half trying to figure out what was going on because it didn't flow smoothly from 'Family Ties'. What I didn't understand was why Matt was getting a flatmate [roommate] and basically what was going on with Draco/Max, I did get it eventually but it was hard! It was good to see the sacred blade again, and have that play a bigger role. I liked how the seeds were mentioned but there was another plot thread that I assume will tie in somewhere. I loved Draco's interview, very original. I also thought it was very clever that at the beginning I thought Max was evil, then with the job interview etc. I thought he was good and then it was revealed that he really was evil but then he finally returned to the rightside in the end. I especially liked the big finale fight, it was fun to read.

Piper's early concerns over her and Leo's ability to cope with the twins and then her later realisation that she should just appreciate life was very Charmed-ish, a nice underlying issue. Leo has to tell Piper about the seeds! Oh my god, if he doesn't then...! Phoebe and Cole were very married, which I liked and I liked this new insight into Cole's character (although I'm sure he's only a hundred years old and I cannot see Cole cooking somehow). Paige was...extreme but the fact that she made her peace with Max before the end was lovely and made it even more poignant. Matt was incredible, all the way through, very realistic, I can't imagine the pain he must be going through. Max was such a fantastic character and I especially hate how the past couple of episodes have been making us like him just so he could die and we could be all upset! 8/10 for a fantastic ending and plots spanning episodes.
