Added 2018-10-16 04:50:09 +0000 UTCSo... not as good as the original and kinda boring as well. What do you guys think about this pilot?

Never thought of myself as mean, always thought that I'd be the queen!

2021-07-13 23:32:50 +0000 UTCI have seen the original several times. It's to this day one of my favorite TV shows. The original had a much better pace to the story and background on their witch ancestry. The acting was much better on the Original. The special effects were much better on the original. This reboot has cringey acting and the visuals of their powers is horribly done. I will give it a couple more episodes before I quit the show. The feminism and political storylines are good but I feel they shove it down the audience's throat by mentioning it where it doesn't belong. I strongly dislike the demons in this episode as well as the whitelighter. I feel this show will never top the original but it may become a decent show later on If I don't compare it to the original too much.

Everything was so god-damn cringy. The effects for the demons and stuff weren't great either. I know I thought Jeremy(Piper's demon boyfriend) in ep 1 was a bit cringy but this was so bad. I found myself wondering when the episode was over because I couldn't take it. Jesus christ.

2018-10-16 14:46:30 +0000 UTCI'm more of a charmed fan so that's what I would say, it's my favorite show and I've rewatched it through so many times! :)

2018-10-16 12:24:23 +0000 UTCI wanna binge a new show and I’m torn between Buffy and original Charmed. What do you guys recommend?

2018-10-16 10:02:22 +0000 UTCI thought the show was disappointing... But tbh, most cw show are these days. It felt super rushed, I don't get why they needed to do that. Finding out that they had some sort of powers could have been the end of the first episode. The fact that someone simply kidnapped them and was like "hey, you're the charmed ones, I'm a whitelighter... Now go and kill demons". It should have been more about the getting to know the characters imo. The whole "vibe" was very strange. Lol I even started laughing at the background music, sounding like a Nintendo wii game or something XD. Haha I'm such a hater.. But I can't help it, I just expected a lot more!

2018-10-16 08:01:49 +0000 UTCI agree! It felt super rushed. The first 20 minutes I felt like a was watching a recap of like 2-3 episodes.

2018-10-16 07:37:47 +0000 UTCEverything felt too rushed, they shouldn’t have introduced Macy so fast. This show is trying to be a bit political. I think they are trying to get the new generation to watch this instead us hard core fans of the original Charmed. I almost fell asleep while watching this. Hollywood needs to stop doing remakes and reboots of shows and movies

2018-10-16 05:21:25 +0000 UTCI thought it was fine. Nothing mind-blowing. I probably give it about a C+. I'll be watching next week's episode. The second half was definitely better than the first half of the episode, though.
