For My Family and All (2) Review
Written By: Melissa

That has to be the saddest episode ever. There was lots of bitty scenes, so I was always on the edge of my seat and trying to work out what was going on and how the hell they could put it right. The dialogue and pure raw emotion in those scenes were just amazing I was kinda sorry we didn't really have a proper scene with evil Piper and her baby killing spree but also kinda glad too, I'm not sure that was something that I wanted to see, imagining it was bad enough. I loved the way they all had a moment when they almost came back, but just didn't quite manage it; my heart leapt and then sank each time. Cole was there and helped to save the day, there was a moment when I had a horrible feeling thay Cole would sway back to evil but (phew!) he didn't and in the end he and Alyson seemed to find a way to get on.

Phoebe was scarily chipper and quite amusing really, I just tried to ignore all those people she was squashing. Paige and Matt! Yay! They finally got back together, even if the cost was high. I was so shocked when Alyson said he'd died and the episode went on so fast that I didn't have time to grieve and so for me he wasn't actually dead and it was only at the end when I realized he might stay down. Thank God for Tempus and The Suits. Poor, poor Piper. I couldn't believe she was killing babies, now that is truly evil. And the way the writer built up to the Leo saving the day whilst it still coming as so much of a shock was fantastic. The finale scene was totally clear in my head, I could see it exactly, don't you just love Leo? Please say he's coming back, even if its only as a ghost or something, I can't live without him and I'm sure Piper can't either. 10/10 because I don't think I've ever had so many tears spring to my eyes.
