Sudbury (Unaired Pilot) - Bryan Spicer - (2004) DVD

A small screen version of the 1998 film Practical Magic which starred Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock as two sisters who struggle with the blessing and curse of magical abilities.

Antonia and her little sister Kylie learn that they and all the family are witches: Their mother Sally and her sister Gillian plus Sally and Gillian's Aunts Jet and Frances. Antonia's father died 10 years ago, and the family is still having trouble with the fact that he died. Antonia doesn't fit in at school or elsewhere. She does however meet a guy whom she befriends, although he's a bit strange himself. Gillian has problems of her own, as the man she was with, turns up dead in a motel room. And the police officer investigating has an eye for Sally, and she for him, but she's not ready for dating yet.

This is one series, killed before airing that I really wish made it to the screen. I would have loved to have seen a few more episodes if the pilot is any indication.
