Paige drives the episode here, attempting to prove her worth by highlighting how a creepy old house she walks past every day naturally gives her the wig. Genre legend Robert Englund works well as Gammill, and the story unfolds pretty nicely, with Phoebe and eventually Piper and Paige being trapped in the house and shrunk to miniature stature. Finn's presence could have been improved a little (his death, too, is pretty unsatisfying), but in general the A-plot works.Piper's subplot, in which she hires a club promoter for P3 who quickly changes the entire club into some Hooters jiggle-fest, doesn't make even a tiny lick of sense; but I guess it's another step in the right direction of salvaging the Power of Three and making Piper a little more open to that idea. I assumed the show had resolved the Piper/Paige animosity in Hell Hath No Fury, but whatever. Neat ending, too, with the fixing of the P3 sign.
Size Matters has some decent lines ("Remember me, the girl with the melons?"), a generally absorbing demon plot, and some fine sister interplay. The whole show is still a little blah-worthy at this point, but it's still mostly fun despite that. C+
