- Опубліковано 7 жов 2022
- For our 2nd video of the first Octoberween week, I will be unboxing Charmed: The Complete Series Blu-Ray box set and reviewing Charmed Seasons 1-8 in their individual cases.
The series was recently upgraded to High Definition and now, you can own all seasons plus bonus content on Blu-Ray. I even share clips from the show in their blu-ray format to show you how high quality the transfer is and I'm really glad that CBS/Paramount decided to give this amazing series an upgrade because if you haven't figured it out already, I'm clearly obsessed lol.
Let me know what your favourite Charmed season is in the comments down below and make sure to like this video and subscribe for more videos as I'm going to be doing unboxings and reviews, etc., twice per week in October.

Blessed be, and I'll see y'all next week. - Розваги
I grew up watching Charmed when it was in 480p. The Blu-ray quality is amazing.
Can't wait to buy this! It would be my first blu ray experience+ it's charmed!!
It’s 100% worth it! Blessed be :)
This blu ray set is a lot nicer than the dvd complete series I have. Mine has the series divided into two thicker cases that hold 4 seasons each. It's more of a hassle having to unbury discs. I'm probably going to upgrade to this set now that I've seen that it has each season in its own case.
It's totally worth it imo. The DVDs are great too if you wanna go for that 90s feel (I watch those when I miss how the show originally aired), but the Blu-Ray version makes it feel like you're watching a high budget movie in episode format. They did a really great job with the remaster. I hope you love the set when you get it!
@@manicmediadream That does sound really good.
cutest charmed fan ever! ;-)
Omg thank you 🥹😅
Did you see the German bluray set its amazing and comes in English audio too. I didn't know if another version would be released and I have the Australian book of shadows set so I'm going to put the blurays in it. The Australian book of shadows version has a coin battery and the insignia on the front lights up when you pick up and move the book.
The German Blu-ray set is gorgeous! The only issue is that my entire collection is in Region A for Blu-Ray and I try to keep it consistent because I’ve had issues in the past with different Blu-Ray players. It’s ok though because I have the Region 1 limited edition Charmed Book of Shadows DVD so I get to enjoy Charmed in modern and retro fashion 😅 maybe I’ll make a video with the DVD set as well😄 It’s similar to the Australian set but it doesn’t have the lights, which I’ve seen in someone else’s video and they look amazing✨Putting the Blu-Rays in it is a great idea!
@@manicmediadream I don't know if you are a Buffy fan but the HD remaster has been awful a real shame. I'm glad Charmed filmed it for wide-screen so they could give us that extra picture years later. In Buffy it was filmed in wide-screen but was never intended to be seen that way so turning a square into a rectangle you lose so much of the picture
@@GAZMAN2002 I’m a huge Buffy fan! The HD remasters on Disneyplus and they’re so bad lol. Like some night scenes look like daytime and I’m always like ummm… why isn’t Angel/Spike burning up rn? And then when I watch the DVDs, the lighting makes sense for the scene. There’s also random crew members here and there in the remasters from what I’ve seen in clips so yeah totally agree some shows should be left in full screen instead.
I heard all the original theme music in opening credits/ for season 1-7 & 8 has different music I think because original air that way along with 4x3 aspect ratio of first and second DVDs released
See ya
Is the opening theme song the original? Or is it the one they used for series 8?
Th opening theme song for Seasons 1-7 is the original. For Season 8, it’s different (the instrumental one from the Season 8 DVDs).
Hi, are they keeping the original opening song or not for this blu-ray release?
The original opening song (How Soon Is Now?) is there for Seasons 1-7. Season 8 has the same instrumental song that the final season dvd has. All other music used in individual episodes is present in the blu-rays.
Hey maniac dream! Does those blu ray disc have original intro theme?
Hi there! Yes, it does have the original intro theme but only for Seasons 1-7. Season 8 still has the DVD instrumental theme :(
I need this.
Can you show me the book of shadows edition and do a full flip through and measurements pleaseeeeer
You read my mind! Just finished editing that video yesterday. It’s coming out tomorrow 😅
@@manicmediadream yay.
I just have one question: is season 2 still wonky? I tried playing the individual release on my PS5 but it couldn't read the discs, did they redo them for this release?
I feel like they did redo them for the complete series blu ray release because I tried my Season 2 discs in my Ps5 and it works just like the others. I know there were issues with the individual releases from Amazon (Made On Demand), but the quality on these is definitely different because they’re directly from the studio.
Where did you get this I need a link for it
I have a few questions, those blu rays are the fixed versions? and the original music is on them or they have the new opening and the ost changed?
Can confirm the Blu-rays are fixed. There were reports of Season 3 glitches/skips and I just checked my set and there aren't any issues. The original music is on them except for Season 8, which still has the DVD version of the theme song. Other than that, all of the original music (theme song or background) is intact.
@@manicmediadream Ty so much for answer me! I'll try to get my pack :D
Can you tell me what's in the "Special Feature" in the final season?
- Audio commentary to “Forever Charmed” with Brad Kern and James L Conway
- “A Charmed Experience” An Interview with James L Conway (Blu-Ray Exclusive)
- The Making of Charmed

- The Book of Shadows

@@manicmediadream thank you for your answer. But it isn't have the unaired pilot (remastered)?! :(
@@ThieuRinoVEVO hey sorry for the late reply. The unaired pilot isn’t in the Blu-Ray complete series :( I checked my DVD Edition of the Book of Shadows Complete Series and that set has the unaired pilot. It’s surprisingly really good quality!
Is this blu-ray box set release region B?
I believe it should work for both Region A and B as well as C, but C is untested at this time
Is the original theme song and music in the shows when you've watched the series on these blu rays?...
Asking cuz on Pluto tv they even took out the music from the show not only just the theme song
Yes the original theme song and music is there in seven seasons. The eighth season has all original music, but has the replacement theme song.
@@manicmediadreamawesome thanks for getting back to me now I feel more comfortable buying it! Lol
Are the back of the discs purple ? Or 100% Authentic ?
100% Authentic. The back isn’t purple and all Blu-ray Discs in the set are pressed.
@@manicmediadream Thank you soo much
Where did you get the shirt ??(? I want one !!!!!
I got it on eBay :) There should still be some listings if you look up Charmed Triple Linked Logo shirt on there
Does it have the Pilot episode?
It does have the pilot episode Something Wicca This Way Comes. It unfortunately does not have the Unaired Pilot starring Lori Rom as Phoebe though :( that one is only on the bonus disc of the book of shadows complete series sets.
What do you suggest the blue ray set from Walmart or the 65$ set from Walmart
I would say Blu-Ray. The DVDs are pretty good if they're in the Book of Shadows edition because it comes with a bonus disc and some spells. But the Blu-Ray is REALLY high-quality so I think that might be a better deal.
@@manicmediadream I couldn’t find the blu ray version at Walmart so I I got the regular edition it was the last one. I was putting it down and up saying should I get it haha. I had to get just in case I wasn’t gonna see it again.
@@jeangrey2788 oh it’s all good. Any kind of Charmed is better than no Charmed haha. Personally, I prefer both editions for different reasons. The DVDs are great cuz that way, I can watch the show the way it was meant to be watched: in the 4:3 ratio with that old school grainy look. It’s so comfortable like that and it makes me feel like I’m watching it for the first time. For the big screen, I watch the Blu-Ray because they worked really hard on the upgrade and it shows, very unlike the Buffy Blu-Ray upgrade which was more of downgrade. But yeah the DVDs are amazing too!
@@manicmediadreammy issue with the regular set I got from Walmart is how they put them in the case. I’m so scared to take them out because they have them stacked on each other which is crazy.
I got the complete charmed box set this same version on DVD for Christmas back in 2021 but I'm pretty sure the special features is the same as the DVD version I'm not going to get the Blu-ray set it's the same thing anyways 😂
Valid. The special features are the same except for a new interview with producer James L. Conway in HD and other than that, the blu-ray version feels more cinematic than retro/nostalgic like on the DVD set, but I have both the DVDs and Blu-Ray and depending on my mood, I switch back and forth lol.
How do I purchase this exact collection? 😩 link?!
Let me know if this link works:

@@manicmediadream It did!! Thank you!!! Can’t wait! I already bought all the seasons on UA-cam lol but I’m a huge fan 😆
How much does this box weigh? Thank u
I used a kitchen scale cuz it’s the only one I have that’s sensitive enough. It’s coming up to around 2.8 lbs.
Hi,i've just received my season 1 and already watched the first épisode, first time blu ray woaw ,when phoebe, in the attic read the book of shadows ,the night ,blue lightning,and yellow part windows , colors etc so beautiful vs dvd there' no doubt about it.can't say the same thing about some movies , blu ray are awful than dvd's,it depend on the version sometimes it's a lotery .i'm french, here it's still on tdt some season 2,3 episodes , between buffy's episode but it's often the same episodes every day +lot of commercials i can't stand 😁. The french voices are not so bad ,but i need to hear real voices .so it's more easy to me with french or at least engish subtitles ,some expression,or when there is long and quick spoken sentences i need to rewind sometimes ,yes ,the book of shadows dvd version,look so cool,but there's two version of it i read that the other version wasn't so good because taking out the dvd's of their sleeves,risk of scratch and some glue ? You'better put you dvd's apart in a box when it happen etc . Thinking of charmed 1/4 century ,time flies so fast ! It's crazy 😊.thks for sharing 👍.📺🔮 Is there subtitles( french or english ) on the season 2 to 8 blu ray disc.? I've seen on the yellow one " die" it's german spoken! ?😊
Yay! Congrats getting Season 1 on Blu-Ray ✨ It's such a good season and I actually really like the Blu-ray menu for it. I wish they did something similar for Seasons 2-8. The blu-ray quality really is amazing. The episodes look like well produced movies on the Blu-Rays, but the retro feel of the DVDs is pretty awesome too 🤩 Yeah commercials can get really annoying haha. I watch Tubi sometimes because it has a good selection of tv shows and movies from the 90s like Charmed but sometimes the commercials are frustrating 😅 Yeah the book of shadows that scratches the discs is the smaller version where you have to slide the discs out, but the bigger, limited deluxe one, they were similar to a dvd case so I got lucky with that one. I'm so glad you enjoyed my video and thank you for the comment 🥹This is the biggest comment I've ever gotten so thank you for taking the time🙏Season 2 to Season 8 for the Blu-Ray has English subtitles for sure and also German subtitles.
Ah,ok i'm surprised ,that the season 2 Blu Ray have english subtitles,ok it's cool .yes ,with the DVD's some éditions sometimes have issues ,i have some doctor who Seasons ,the DVD's are likely the one of each over, the plastic IS fragile ,and then You have your DVD's moving inside the plastic case 🤣 grrrr ,yes i'm a fan of" the Avengers" and the New Avengers ,a 60's 77's britain TV show , unfortunetly some of them 77's haven't been remasterised ,they put on dvd almost the vhs quality ,and exception 3 épisodes of différent season are on Blu Ray i ordered it from England ,and the 77' on Blu Ray (,just only one épisode of 2 seasons ) when i put my Blu Ray on 🙏,, even some black and white Era épisodes from 60's on Blu Ray whoooaaa 😊 but i'm ok with You ,the DVD 's are charming to .thanks for your response too . And sorry for my " Novel " comments, looonnnnng 🤣have a good day.🎬😊📺
Where to get the shirt? 😎
That’s a really good question. It’s either Amazon or eBay cuz it’s been a really long time since I bought it 😅 eBay most likely has a better price. I think it’s called charmed triple linked logo shirt or something like that.
French audio on it ?
Season 1 is the only one that has French audio on it along with English.
Yeah, since this was a made on demand release they literally just stuck the individual blu-ray releases in this set with new cover inserts. Season 1 was a worldwide release, then season 2 they actually originally released it on Burned BD-R discs, there were errors and people demanded they fix them and burn them on pressed blu-ray discs. There were also issues with season 3 so replacements were sent out for those. It was just all a huge mess lol Still some error's here and there in some episodes (mouths not moving when lines are said, missing vfx etc.) but overall it's just great to have the show in HD on blu-ray
That makes so much sense! I remember following a Charmed HD and Blu Ray page on Facebook and so many people were complaining about BD-R discs and scene jumps. I’m glad they fixed it. Haven’t experienced any issues so far thank goodness but yes it’s awesome to have it on HD. The quality is unbelievably good and makes each episode feel like a cinematic experience hehe
Man, I'm so jelly of this and the Book of Shadows DVD version you have lol. I've wanted the book version for years and years but it's so expensive plus I'm in the UK so shipping costs are also a factor and the Blu-ray boxset is pricy for me atm (and I'm not 100% sure if my player would be compatible).
It's kinda annoying how the season 2 blu ray discs are printed pink like the first individual release of it but the case is the classic orange and how all the other season's discs are plain. Also how the Season 3 boxset 'spine' doesnt have an image and they don't all match perfectly. I'm weirdly obsessive about that stuff, it's silly haha.
Like here, the complete 1-8 DVD box sets are just not that wow. They have two versions that are all just all black, one that has the discs from each individual season boxset in cardboard sleeves that look messy and one that's just two plastic volumes of 1-4 and 5-8 that have plain discs. Neither come with the bonus disc.
There is a wooden chest version that holds each individual season release which I always wanted but that's pricy too and quite bulky and then there is the ultimate box set that holds four volumes, with the sisters on each different one, 2 seasons in each and that does have the bonus disc but it's hard to find one in good condition on eBay and it looks kinda unofficial to me somehow.
It's funny you say you prefer the season 7+8 R2 version cause I always thought the Region 1 s7 and s8 images were nicer. haha. I thought the sisters looked really pale on the yellow season 7 boxset.
anyway, I'm rambling about first-world problems, Think I'm just gonna buy the cheap plastic version for now as I've been streaming it with the different music (sacrilege lol) and then get the blu rays one day.
Loved this video, thanks for sharing :)
I’m glad you enjoyed! The wooden chest set is gorgeous but yeah u’r definitely right it’s mighty pricey. There are a lot of inconsistencies between the different seasons production wise. Season 1 definitely got the best treatment with the cover, discs, and even episode menu (it’s the only season that has a video menu, the others have a static image menu), but Season 8 is packed with features. The best selling point of this set imo is just how incredible each of the episodes look in HD, the fact that no one take them off of a streaming platform and prevent me from watching them lol and that fantastic cover of all four sisters. Ever since I was younger, I always wanted an official image of the four of them together from the studio. Also, I really enjoyed reading your comment. It was very detailed and I appreciate the time you took to write it. Blessed be ✨
@@manicmediadream ah, I can imagine it looks amazing! I will get this set one day haha.
you're so sweet to say that. thank you and thanks for your reply.
:)
Blessed be.
I want DVD type
I made a video of the limited edition dvd version too :)
Lingua italiana c'è?
Unfortunately no :( I checked the back of the boxes and:
Season 1: English, French audio
Season 2: English
Seasons 3 - 8: English, German
I’m so tempted to buy this but they have it on peacock in HD
Lucky! I wish they had Peacock in Canada 😢 cuz both Charmed and Psych are on it and I love them both
i Have the regular dvd set and won't be buying this over
I don't blame you I got the same exact set on the DVD version 😅
@@stevemarks4724 As consumers we need to be smart ,the tech to put it in HD was already out.Will not catch me buying it twice just for better quality when they could have release in HD from the start.
Get a job
I literally filmed this during my lunch break 😄 multitasking ftw ✨
HD remasters ruin TV shows. I'll take the original SD versions in 4:3 every time. Altering aspect ratios and updating special effects changes the show and it isn't the same. Plus there are reports these Charmed blurays have issues. I'd never buy them I'd only buy the original DVDs.
