Alyssa Milano, Rose McGowan and that woman who was originally the third sister may get all the attention, but Holly Marie Combs is the keystone card of Charmed; as Piper, she holds the Power of Three and the flawed-but-engaging supernatural series together. The cutest fulcrum you ever did see; talk about spellbinding. And all hail Stuff for featuring her last year... but where the hell are her tattoos?
Recommended viewing: Every single episode of Charmed, but particularly "Coyote Piper," in which the (then) middle sister is possessed by an evil spirit - the title refers to the scene where she gets up on the bar at P3* and carries off a surprisingly arousing table dance ("Choreography by Shannen Doherty," who also directed that episode). And Holly didn't use any doubles either (the cast of Coyote Ugly please note). Also watch for Picket Fences repeats, Dr. Giggles, numerous TV movies, A Reason To Believe (containing her only topless scene to date), and her uncredited cameo as herself in the deeply overrated remake of Ocean's Eleven (itself pretty overrated, but that's another story).
