Current Events > Charmed Reboot Trailer.... it's as bad as you think it is.

(+) Yeah! (+)

What was wrong with the trailer? It just feels like a slightly more series take on the show. Really a lot of things are the same. I can't see how people who liked the original would think this looks worse.

Good to know it's staying true to the original then

i really hate the cw shows

why are they so trash

Even Black Lighting?

i've not seen that but if it's made by the CW then it's likely to be trash

It's actually pretty good, not at all teen drama like the other CW shows, plus the lead is daddy af

The original series is pretty terrible to begin with.

Terrible + Alyssa Milano = occasionally watchable.

The lead and Tobias are the best parts of the show. I definitely agree that most of CW is shit. Even the shows they have that are good at first eventually turn awful so it's probably a matter of time before BL suffers the same fat

I just hope they stick to their guns about not making it part of the Arrowverse. Once that happens, shit guaranteed.

I liked Piper the best when I watched it daily like 5 years back with depression. Pheobe used to be my favorite though obviously.

they passed on a promising supernatural spinoff for this trash

What was the Supernatural apin off.

lmao the trend for reboots recently has been genderswapping everything. However, now that we have a chance at genderswapping a female protagonist show instead of gender swapping they just make it even more pandering to the social justice crowd, literally using the "social justice warrior" in the description.

Claire, Alex and Jody are the main characters along with Donna and a psychic they introduced this season

Or were going to be, until the CW passed on it

One of the sisters looks older than the mum

None of them are even remotely as hot as the original trio+Paige

i mean lets be honest. we only watched it for the fanservice

Holly Marie Combs is my waifu.

I've been in lust with her since she was on Picket Fences.

why didn't they make the mother black and the dad white?

it's always the same tired old black male white female

Why is there even a need for a charred reboot?

"Stronger together. Thats what Marisol tells her daughters, firebrand social justice warrior Melanie Mel Vera, and her sister, fun-loving Maggie, about their family. Mel is a graduate student in the womens studies department her mother heads at Hilltowne University;"

Oh boy. Sounds like its going to lay it on obnoxiously thick with feminist and PC themes.

Oh god, I read a synopsis. It sounds fucking awful.

Stronger together. Thats what Marisol tells her daughters, firebrand social justice warrior Melanie Mel Vera, and her sister, fun-loving Maggie, about their family. Mel is a graduate student in the womens studies department her mother heads at Hilltowne University; Maggie is a freshman considering rushing a sorority (to Mels amused dismay) and going on again with her on-again off again boyfriend Brian. But then, a shocking tragedy shatters their world and threatens their sibling bond: Marisol dies in a horrifying accident. Or was it? Three months later, we find Mel unable to accept the official explanation of their mothers death, while Maggie accuses her of being morbidly obsessed. And then, another huge shock shows up at their front door: they have an older sister, brilliant geneticist Macy, whom their mother kept a secret all these years! Macy is new in town and doesnt know a soul (except for Galvin, the cute fellow scientist whos been showing her around). Macy is eager to connect with Mel and Maggie, but Mel cant handle another shock, and shuts her out. With the emotions of all three sisters running high, each of the girls suddenly exhibit impossible new abilities: Mel can freeze time, Maggie starts hearing others thoughts, and Macy has telekinetic powers. But dont worry, theres a perfectly reasonable explanationor so says Harry Greenwood (who as far as they know is the officious new chair of the womens studies department), when he gathers the three sisters together to reveal theyre actually powerful witches, as was their mother. And hes not really a professor, hes their Whitelighter, a witchs advisor and guide! Not only that, but Mel was right: their mothers death was no accident she was murdered by unknown dark forces. Its a lot to take in, but ultimately the sisters accept their new destiny as The Charmed Onesand their new duty to protect humankind from the demons that walk among usone of whom killed their mother. With the Power of Three, they are stronger together even if they have no idea what theyre really up against.

This is verbal diarrhea

Storyline sucks, the mother's words were waaaay too deliberate and still garbage, the sisters can't act, the themes used in the trailer look terrible, etc.

The middle chick is ugly ass fuck I hope they replace her like in the original where one of them was recasted after like 1 or 2 seasons

Damnit, had been hoping that they'd do something with them, particularly given all the build. (And it makes more sense than the god-awful attempted spinoff intro'd in "Bloodlines")

Either laziness or racism?
