Beings
Magical Beings
Notes and Trivia
That '70s Episode trailer.
- Darryl does not appear in this episode.
- This is the second episode in which the sister lose their powers.
- Although T. W. King appears on the opening credits, Andy doesn't appear in the episode as an adult. He does turn up as a child at one point, in a cowboy outfit.
- A film marquee in the '70s says Jaws (1975).
- Phoebe says that they'll return to the future in which their mother doesn't exist. Chris says the same thing in Hyde School Reunion.
- When the girls tell Grams Phoebe's name she says "Another P what a surprise!" A similar line would be said in Charmed Again, Part 1 by Phoebe after Paige tells them her name. "Hmm. Another P. Imagine that"
- This is the first episode in which the Charmed Ones time travel, which would become a recurring theme in Charmed, as time travel is featured in many episodes.
- In this episode, it is revealed that Halliwell is actually Patty's last name and not Victor's (Anthony Denison was credited as Victor Halliwell in Thank You For Not Morphing).
- This episode scored 6.5 million viewers.
- The diner in which the sisters find Patty working at, called Fred 62, is located on 1850 N. Vermont Avenue, Los Angeles in Los Feliz area. The diner is open 24 hours a day and serves a variety of American dishes.
- The sound effects used when little Prue and Piper use their powers are more high pitched than the sound effects usually used for their present day forms.
- Despite being in a park, big Prue made little Prue and little Piper use their powers in public.
- Little Prue channeled her telekinesis through her hands as well as her eyes; she moved the ball by pointing at it.
- Emmalee Thompson was chosen to play little Prue specifically, because she had a mole under her right eye, just like Shannen Doherty has.
- This is the actual first time that the Charmed Ones have used the Power of Three. It wouldn't be used again until 23 years later.
- This episode marks Finola Hughes' first appearance on the show as Patty Halliwell. Patty was earlier portrayed by Alyssa Milano in a home video and by someone else in 'From Fear to Eternity'.
- This is the first time we learn that Grams was married numerous times. The number of which changes in future episodes.
- Prue calls Grams "Grandma" in this episode.
- Shannen Doherty and Jennifer Rhodes appeared together in the 80's cult classic Heathers
Glitches
- In the later episode, "P3 H2O", it is revealed that Patty was killed not by a warlock, but by a Water Demon.
- Prue, Piper and Phoebe went back at the time Patty was pregnant with unborn Phoebe, and telling Patty and Penny that they're the Charmed Ones, so their Mom and Grams knew that. But in "Forever Charmed", when Leo, Piper, Patty traveled to meet Grams when Patty had died, Grams had no idea that her granddaughters would be the Charmed Ones.
- When Phoebe takes a photo of Patty with little Prue and Piper, they are in another position than when the photo is shown at the end of the episode. Patty's holding her daughters hands another way and Piper was looking in front of her instead of looking to the floor.
- Finola Hughes' slight English accent can be heard when she says "vanquish" near the end of the episode.
- When Grams flings them out of the Manor, Alyssa Milano can be seen smiling and talking to Holly Marie Combs.
- The opening montage shows Jaws playing in the cinema, however the date on the paper is March 24 1975. The film did not premier until June 20 (although there was an early test screening in Dallas on March 25th).
- The Charmed Ones travel back to March 24, 1975. On that day in 1975 Prue should have been almost 4 years old and Piper should have been almost 2 years old. The girls portraying young Prue and Piper where much older than that. This is confirmed in "Forever Charmed" when they travel back to Phoebe's conception and Patty states that Piper is 2 years old. It would be unlikely if not impossible for the girl who portrayed little Piper to be portraying a 2 year old in this episode.
- Prue says that they got rid of stuff in the attic years ago, meaning it was before 1998. This seems impossible since it is stated in "Something Wicca This Way Comes" that the attic was closed since the sisters were kids. It is also stated in the flashback in Pre-Witched, that the attic was closed when they were kids.
References to other movies, books, mythology etc.
- Prue's line "Thank you, Mr. Spock" is a reference to the classic sci-fi show Star Trek.
- The title "That '70s Episode" is a reference to the comedy "That '70s Show", which premiered and ended the same years as Charmed.
