I want to give it a chance because they're not white, but I'm so bored of re-boots/remakes/etc. And The CW is...so bad.



Also that gif lol

The CW is where shows go to die tbh. If I was an up and comer in the industry, I’d be salty as hell if my first big project was on the CW, of all networks.

That makes no sense. You have a bigger chance of your show succeeding on TheCW then you do on any other network. Not to mention they help launch a lot of careers.

Idk the Riverdale kids got a lot of side movies they did on hiatus. Nothing Oscar worthy but it's work.

I don't know why they'd remake such a shitty show, but i guess that's better than them marring the legacy of quality shows.

If Charmed and Roswell does well what makes you think Buffy won't be next?

FOX has already talked about doing a Buffy reboot and have decided against it until they can get Joss Whedon on board.

I think they tried with a movie reboot a few years back, a script was written. I'm pretty happy nothing came from it.

Lol. So true. I enjoyed charmed for the fluff that it is. But people keep acting like it was some emmy worthy shit.

I'm giving it a chance out of spite because I'm sick of the whining, because it looks fun and harmless and it's a latina-lead show.



I was re-watching Obscurus Lupa's Charmed reviews and that shows really was dumb (my mother loved it though). So this one can only try and be better.

Not that I'm gonna watch it, but I hope the show does well AND I'm thrilled they've never seen the original show, simply because i'm sure both factors will piss Holly Marie Combs off.



She's <> from being one of those dudes on a cop show in the 70's whose constantly remind you "I was on Starsky and Hutch."

I miss sfm Madeleine's Veil with Sunny. I can't hate that Charmed reboot because of her. She truly is a Renaissance painting in motion.

I wonder if they'll reboot Cole?

Totally will. Probably won't go by Cole but the bad guy who falls in love with a main character is such a big trope, its hard not to do.

That'd be weird, isn't one of the sister meant to be the source's daughter?

Was that just a crazy rumor?

I watched the pilot for this. It has potential although I didn't see the original. Some of the makeup and effects were kinda old school WB. It was very heavy on me too movement and feminism. The middle sister was kinda annoying though.

I'm scared someone from the cw is looking for spoilers but whatever. The mom mysteriously dies and the 2 daughters are mad and confused. They start to develop powers and another sister shows up. They have to decide if they want to be witches and find their mom's killer or go back to being regular with no powers. They band to together and become witches. The journey begins

imo its pretty disrespectful to be like "oh i've never seen the original show." it's not exactly GoT and the source material is 800 pages...

They never respected anything about the original show or its creator why start now? Charmed can't even celebrate it's 20th anniversary with any fan fare and they dont even acknowledge it anywhere in any press release.



The entire pilot is on metoo... something Alyssa and Rose were monumental in. And they bounced them out of that too. It would have been a cool moment if one of them were a professor or something. It didn't have to be some long recurring gig.

It's also weird that they say they're "putting a new spin on the show and making it more current". Like, how would they know if they haven't actually seen the original?
