Many reboots are made without the original cast. When something is typically rebooted, it's done for a new generation with redone plots/characters. I'm sure they would've been asked to make guest appearances later down the line but that seems unlikely as they continue burning bridges. And it's one thing to defend yourself (say your piece and go) and it's another to constantly talk about and trash it.

Scarier doesn’t necessarily mean good tho? I’ve watched it and it was horrid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffy is a reboot if the Buffy movie. Smallville is a reboot of Superboy. Desperate Housewives is basically The First Wives Club, Grey's Anatomy is basically ER. I don't know what a One Tree Hill is. Only Buffy is a "reboot" of the Buffy film, the rest are HUGE "basically" reboots. Just taking a similar premise is not a reboot. One could say that any witch show is a reboot of Charmed from that argument, or say that Charmed was a reboot of The Craft. The problem with reboots is that they take the title, branding and story line of the original and in this case they don't seem to respect the original.

FrederickSpears 2,113 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 These two has beens need to let it go. They wouldn't have liked being attacked if it was the other way around. They are way too old to be acting like children. Queen Shannen supported the new girls. A true legend! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many reboots and revivals lately, and the Charmed cast who spent 4-8 years of their lives on the original beloved show didn’t even get asked to be apart of the new show. That would piss off almost anyone. These reboots rub me the wrong way, it’s almost like modern audiences can’t watch anything more than fifteen years old. And the Charmed reboot clearly wanted to have its cake and eat it too, by doing a lot of its own thing but using the Charmed brand and fandom to gain an audience. I love Sarah (at least from what I’ve seen from her performance in The Descendants franchise) but she is kind of barking up the wrong tree. Let’s not forget how much the new show dissed the original Charmed by basically calling the actresses old and the original anti-feminist. Holly and Rose allegedly wanted too much money, so new girls it is. They are both washed up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chlorine 47,976 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 It's a poor reboot, period. Has nothing to do with their race. It could be 3 white women and it would still suck. They rebooted the damn reboot in season 2 by completely scrapping the first season and uprooting everything. Like honey, no. Zon't zo it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
