Notes and Trivia[]
- Although credited, Brian Krause does not appear in this episode. This is the second and last episode in the series that credits an absent actor, the first is "That '70s Episode", in which T.W. King is credited but does not appear in the episode.
- The nickname of Phoebe in high school, "Freebie", was revealed by Prue in "Love Hurts".
- This is the last time one of the sisters turns into their teenage self. Paige did so in "A Paige from the Past" and Prue did in "Be Careful What You Witch For".
- In "Cheaper by the Coven", the sisters' personalities change into bickering teenagers, though they remain adults.
- Piper never magically turned into a teen, but a photo of her teenage years was visible in "Coyote Piper."
- In this episode, Phoebe and Paige essentially set up a mortal human, Rick, to get killed by demons. This contradicts the lesson on punishing the guilty that they were forced to learn in "Morality Bites", as well as Paige almost turning evil via her desire to punish a normal human by killing him when she thought he was abusing his son in "Charmed Again, Part 2".
- The show that premiered after this episode on the WB, was coincidentally called "high school reunion".
- This is the first and only episode when the Charmed Ones intentionally contributed to the death of a person (albeit a criminal) in order to save themselves from problems and exposure.
- At the end of the episode, Chris calls Piper "Mom" for the first time.
- The name of one of the crew members, Star Fields, appears in the yearbook.
- Piper does not use her Molecular Immobilization power and Phoebe does not use her Premonition or Levitation powers.
- This episode scored 4.8 million viewers.
Cultural References[]
- The name of the episode is a reference to the novel Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, combined with a high school reunion.
- Calling Phoebe "Freaky Phoebe" is a reference to the movie Freaky Friday (1976) as well as the remake in 2003. Freaky Phoebe is also the name of a Season 7 episode.
Continuity Errors[]
- In the scenes where the camera is outside of the car as Phoebe is driving, her stunt double's face is clearly seen.
- In this episode sisters don't follow the rule "protect the innocent, not punish the guilty" which was the reason of Phoebe being burned at the stake in "Morality Bites".
