The deluge of empowerment is relentless, repetitive, and boring. The supernatural elements of the plot seem borrowed from old episodes of Supernatural and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The special effects are super-cheesy, not much better than an old episode of Bewitched.
-
This Charmed has its sights set on the Emmy for "Most PC Cliches Packed Into One Oppressively Long Drama Ever," and I think it might even win the lifetime achievement award the first season.
-
The actresses at the center of the series lack the chemistry necessary for their bond to have gravitas, and the writing has a clumsy, faux-feminist political bent that undercuts the show’s desire to provide an empowering message about female power.
-
The original show balanced horror with comedy and supernatural threats. The update feels like sociology homework.

Oct 14, 2018The new Charmed is a mess. Bad casting. Very poor writing... just horrible. Full of political innuendos.
Not even watchable! -
Oct 14, 2018Charmed? More like SJWed. Can we make a white version of The Cosby Show?! Of course not, that would be ridiculous. Get it?

Oct 14, 2018As a fan of the original series, I tried to enjoy this. Let's put it this way, I would be surprised if it lasts the whole season.
