This episode is One of the best and nice episodes of the whole series. The fantasy is exlusive. The memory is an evergreen. Prue and Cole as a team is great. An only western feature. It is better than many western films. In my mind is this Episode in the Top Ten.

Lots of good things going for this episode. First, it marks the re-entrance of Cole into the Manor (and what an entrance !). Then you have Victor, trying to deal with his daughters' uncomfortable choices in men. Prue and Cole both look fantastic in their cowboy outfits, and they interact greatly. Cole's doing his best to be good, but his true nature tends to seep through, which gives the scriptwriters a great way out of some problems without compromising the sisters' integrity. Plus, his devil-may-care attitude (no pun intended... oh well ^^) is a recurring trait that will often put him in messy situations later on.
On the other hand, the curse seems to be solved a bit too easily. Come on, a whole town suddenly changing their minds just because a girl told them to ? Oh, and the crow-spirit feels very clichéed, especially since it contributes almost nothing to the plot.

So Far, the Best Episode of the Third Season

Victor Bennett brings Phoebe to a ghost town and asks her if it could be a good investment. Phoebe sees two ghosts and she gets physically linked to one of them, the Indian Bo. When Bo is shot by the mean Sutter, Phoebe is also hurt. Leo is unable to heal her, so Cole travels with Prue to a parallel world, trying to stop the looped curse in the town and save Phoebe.
Congratulation to Ms. Shannen Doherty, since "The Good, the Bad and the Cursed" is so far, the best episode of the Third Season of "Charmed": great story, with many funny moments, action, romance and drama. The reaction of Victor, seeing one daughter engaged with a whitelighter and the other one in love of a demon is hilarious. Prue and Cole working together in the Old West is also fantastic. I really loved this episode! My vote is ten.

Western charmed style

I'm not a real fan of western and thus this didn't work for me. It was slow, dull and seems like one contrived convince after another to make it work. The sets are pretty accurate and the effects are good though. Ed Later have a nice performance and was probably the only enjoyable performance to me. I also liked the concept of how far are you willing to go for the greater good.
While I appreciate the attempt by the writers to be creative and try knew things they should really stick with what works. Remember who the core fan base is and why we tune in. I want romance, family drama, comedy thrown in and action set around wiccian duties.
Still the ending was a little ambiguous and creepy. If you enjoy a spaghetti western this one's for you.
