Season two of the supernatural drama series Charmed marks two major additions to the regular cast: Greg Vaughan as Dan Gordon, the handsome young contractor whom Charmed One Piper Halliwell (Holly Marie Combs) hires to help her renovate her newly opened P3 club; and Lochlyn Munro as Jack Sheridan, a new employee at Bucklands Auction House, who tries to hit it off with Pipers sister Prue (Shannen Doherty) -- who in turn has resigned from Buckland after her harrowing experiences with the firms former owner, malevolent warlock Rex Buckland. As for the third Halliwell sister, Phoebe (Alyssa Milano), she remains unemployed, though still very much a key player in the action. In the course of the season, Piper begins dating Dan, even though she is aware she is fated to have a baby with guardian angel (or Whitelighter) Leo Wyatt (Brian Krause). For his part, Leo is punished for saving Pipers life without permission, and is briefly transformed into a mortal, during which time he is hired as the P3 clubs bartender. Also, Prue gains the power of astral projection, is hired as a photographer for 415 Magazine, and lets slip to police inspector Darryl Morris (Dorian Gregory) that she and her sisters are witches. The season ends with Piper, dolefully aware that her love for Dan can never truly be consummated, enlisting the aid of a friendly genie (played by 3rd Rock From the Suns French Stewart) to convince Dan to move out of town and start life anew. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
