1) The insult: I was a HUGE fan of the original "Charmed"- I even recorded EVERY episode on dozens of VHS tapes (this was back before DVR)! In my opinion, their series finale episode "Forever Charmed" is a prime example of a flawlessly written closer, concluding the show perfectly. Everything was neatly wrapped up, there was no need to rehash anything. Also, why reboot a show that only ended a little more than 10 years ago and is STILL on TV, airing in syndication? However, out of morbid curiosity, I attempted to watch the ill-conceived reboot tonight. Unfortunately, I was not disappointed in my disappointment. The reboot serves only as a both obvious and pathetic attempt by the network to prove how "woke" and diverse it is by simply recycling a previously (and RECENTLY) proven show with a PC cast. That will NEVER be a good enough reason to reboot a show and actually is an insult to the original that it is ripping off! 2) The injury: The same year as the "Charmed" finale season, the WB/CW introduced the show's thematic successor, "Supernatural." The gist of both shows is predestined siblings battling unnatural evils, and it was an easy transition for "Charmed" fans who were preparing to bid farewell to latch onto "Supernatural." Since then, TV Guide has begun calling "Supernatural" the "show that will never die." It has been such a success for the CW that this past season they aired a backdoor pilot for a spinoff, "Wayward Sisters." As great as "Supernatural" is, they NEEDED this spinoff to finally spotlight the female characters who have been woefully neglected and/or misused in the original, and fans desperately WANTED this spinoff. However, CW execs made the incomprehensible decision to turn down "Wayward Sisters" and instead green lit this pointless "Charmed" reboot, a show NO ONE wanted or needed. By choosing this useless retread over a show that already has an established, extremely loyal fan base ready and waiting for it, the network has actually hurt its own chances for a bonafide hit. In conclusion: SHAME ON YOU, CW execs for wasting one of your limited programming spots on this farce!!!! Hopefully it will be cancelled after its first 13 episodes, the network will realize the error of their ways, and replace this turkey with "Wayward Sisters"!! PS- We see what you're doing CW, airing an encore of the "Charmed" pilot after this week's "Supernatural" episode, hoping we'll stick around for it, but we're not falling for it! You are NOT going to turn "Supernatural" fans into "Charmed" fans because we KNOW you sacrificed "Wayward Sisters" for this waste!!
