In 2016, Gavin Hetherington of SpoilerTV ran a series of Charmed articles in the run-up to the 10th anniversary of the series finale. The first was a complete season review of season one, in which Gavin comments that he has "fond memories" of the season, despite it not being his favourite. He further says that "even the bad episodes served their purpose, and the best episodes remained a favourite of mine until the very end." Of the character development, he wrote: "I couldn't think of a better way to introduce these three amazing, beautiful sister witches to the world, and they underwent a huge transformation from the pilot to the season finale."
