Oh right, that's why...

Okay, I just got reminded why I hate dubbed tv shows. On Charmed at least the voices are more or less fitting for the characters. Except for Billie's. Her German voice is nothing similiar to her original voice. But the translations they just sound... nobody talks like that. Arg!
And what bugs me most: In the original version Wyatt talks like a 3 year old. Most of the time you hardly understand what he says but it sounds real. In German you understand every single word and you don't believe for a second that this little boy really said that.

I start to believe that probably season 7 wasn't even that bad. I guess I should buy the DVD box so I can watch it in English and give it another chance.

I hate dubbed shows. I'm from Russia, they didn't dub Charmed here, only did the voice-over. It was okay but once I've see one episode in English, I realized that was much better. Not that I had any doubts...

They do a voice-over in tv shows? I never heard about something like that.
I usually watch tv shows on DVD so I can watch them in english cause it just always is much better.

In Russia they do. A DVD-box is a good thing but there usually are some episodes that I wouldn't want to watch again so why bother buying an expensive set of DVDs? Though I'm debating with myself whether to buy or not to buy 'Charmed' Season 6.

Sadly the Charmed DVD boxes don't have any extras at all, at least the German and the UK version don't but I think it's still worth buying.

I didn't hope there would be any... How many discs are there in the set, BTW?

[gwaevalarin.livejournal.com]

I don't know what the set is like in Russia of course but here the season got split up in two boxes with 3 discs each.

By the way, do you know "Supernatural"? Because if you don't you should really do something about that. ;) It's sort of like a mix of a horror movie and a road movie each week and a Charmed sons spin-off.

Unfortunately, I don't. It doesn't air here but if it does I'll watch. Thanx for the rec.
