Do you prefer the episodes with Prue or the newer ones with Paige?

Without Prue. Well, not so much without Prue as WITH Rose McGowan, who is much more interesting than pouty Shannon Doherty.

Not that I enjoy them all that much anyway, but if I happen to catch one whist channel surfing, I enjoy Charmed sans Prue. Shannon Dougherty gives witches like me a bad name.
