mpthecat 928 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 My first favorite TV show is getting a pilot order at the CW after being in the works for a few years now. http://tvline.com/2018/01/25/charmed-reboot-pilot-cw/ “The rejiggered version is set in the present day and is described as “a fierce, funny, feminist reboot” centered on “three sisters in a college town who discover they are witches. Between vanquishing supernatural demons, tearing down the patriarchy, and maintaining familial bonds, a witch’s work is never done.” Jane the Virgin‘s Jessica O’Toole and Amy Rardin, the team behind last year’s pitch, executive-produced and wrote this redevelopment for CBS Television Studios, while Jennie Urman (Jane the Virgin), director Brad Silberling and Ben Silverman are the other EPs.” Holly Mary Combs (Piper) meanwhile had a mini rant on Twitter today about it: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doot 2 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 And she should rant about it, because it’s extremely stupid. I personally won’t be watching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSlash 14,539 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Sorry, but I won't let some trash authors and actors destroy the series of my childhood (alongside Avatar ). I'm pretty bad at predicitions, but I predict it to be a flop Ew, David! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
berlinforme 5,300 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Oh my god, this sounds like "Let's do something that worked before and make it more feminist! People like that now!" - don't force it. The original was feminist and effortless about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsches 17,395 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 If the original cast (including Prue, the true queen of the power of 3) ain't in it, I ain't gonna watch it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scathach 6,674 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 HMC is so annoying. Movies and shows get rebooted all the time. And no, the original show was not feminist. It was not sexist at all but it wasn't feminist either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sizzily 14,543 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 That synopsis gave me cancer. Tears in the rain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that still doesn't mean that JTV has class, is entertaining or gripping the actors are unbearable, the execution is cringe worthy and the dips in popularity are justifiable. Charmed on the other hand has a following even now almost 15 years later and became a pop culture phenomenon, we'll see about the other one in a few years if it can do. I'm the bitch that's fragile Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
