Charmed: Difference between revisions

** Only to [[Subverted Trope|subvert]] this trope when he explains that {{spoiler|he just wanted to try whether he really was indestructable}} and goes [[Ax Crazy]] for good after the confirmation.

*** Cole didn't explain anything. He wanted to die and was quite miserable that nothing could be done to make it happen. Now, he was told by the Avatars that this was the case and cryptically said as much to the sisters, but it was quite clear that Cole was hoping against hope that they were wrong.

* [[Identical Grandson]]: Though subverted in one episode where Leo attends a WWII veterans' reunion as his own identical grandson, even though he obviously wasn't.

* [[Idiosyncratic Episode Naming]]: The name of almost every episode worked on more than one level--each often included a [[Incredibly Lame Pun|terrible pun]] which was at least peripherally relevant to the plot point/MonsterOfTheWeek, unless the name of one of the sisters was somehow worked into the title. At the same time, most names were ''also'' puns which played off of a [[Shout-Out]] to another famous title or work. While just about anything was fair game, the most common contenders were works of literature, rival TV shows, classic films, and well-known songs, often oldies.

* [[Idiot Ball]]: The later the seasons, the more these tend to be thrown around.

* [[Immune to Bullets]]: Most demons. There's also a spell that gives a person temporary invincibility, making bullets bounce off them and giving them [[Super Strength]] a la [[Superman]].

** Grimlocks are a bit of a subversion. Bullets can't stop them, but they still hurt like hell.
