I know this wasn't meant to be the actual finale, but this is what we got. Does that mean we'll be stuck with this inane storyline for another season? God, I hope now. Perhaps they can do a two hour special that will wrap this up, and then we can move on to something better (knocking on wood as I type this).
Truth be told, I was pretty indifferent going in. Watching this show has become more of a chore than an enjoyment to me. I really didn't care what happened.
The only bit I liked was Mel and Maggie walking in on Harry and Macy. Pretty funny as they both know what is going on, but smile as Macy turns cartwheels trying to deny it.
I didn't like that bit at the end, where Harry is talking about Maggie using magic to change his feelings. No, no, NO! Don't do this, writers! You want Harry and Macy together, then stick with it. Do NOT turn these two into Piper and Leo Mark II. LEARN from the mistakes of the original show, don't repeat them.
Anyhoo, that's pretty much all I have to say. I may, or may not, be back next season (if there is one), because this one really dropped the ball, IMO.

This series is such a mess.
I don't get why they rebooted, it seems the safe space plot is so boring. Why did they even have to relocate the sisters and destroy the book? They had a good set-up in S1, that just needed fixing, e.g removing the supporting characters that brought it down.
And are Parker and Abagail here to stay, I think COVID-19 may have ruined this series even more, as these boring plots are going into S3 when they could have had a soft reboot and finished safe space's plot.

I hope they wrap all this rubbish up. Really boring. I'm bored with Safe Space, and want that wrapped up.
I'm annoyed they are wanting to go there with Harry and Macy and undo it again.
Another thing, enough with Mel and her love interests. Every single one comes and goes all the time. Stick with one, or just make her single. She'd had five love interests in only two seasons.
Looks like we're stuck with Parker and Abigail for another season. I think I might not be back next season, the show is really not going anywhere, and I just want them to get this plot over, and I'd rather they return to their home town again somehow and get the book back, and get their lives back on track again, because I'll admit, that is what made season 1 better than 2 in that regard, even if I hated the rushed arcs.

Hence my hope that they do a two hour season premier. Wrap this rubbish up and then move on to a new story.

Like others here I didn't enjoy this episode much or this season really also.
Compared to original Charmed season 2 which had great stand-alone stories, the power of three and lots of sisterly moments this fails, unfortunately, I mean why have Harry and Macy get together previously only to split up here then?
For all, it's faults season 1 had the bits I did enjoy with the small-town setting, Book of Shadows, guest stars Jada and Niko, and the girls having jobs or college was much better than this.
If the show wants to improve even though it's being touted 4 seasons going the writers need to send the girls back to Hilltown although that likely won't happen, ditch the current storyline and certain characters, and learn from previous Charmed's mistakes not repeat them otherwise people mayn't continue watching the show.

Indeed, this show seems to be repeating the mistake of the later seasons of the original series. Isolating the sisters from the world.
And saying that this show will get a fourth season is jumping the gun, IMO. If the ratings don't improve, how long will the CW back this losing horse?
