The Charmed reboot is about about three sisters, including a half-sister who the two didn't even know about up to now, whose mother is killed and they discover they're witches.

I've got to be honest, I found the first season of this to be stronger than the entire original show put together.

This show did a delightfully strong job of introducing a universe with multiple characters and organizations. There is an interesting balance of humor and more dramatic story beats and reveals. Plot points never feel drawn out. I felt the finale, which while having a strong main plot, did try to tie up too many loose ends, too quickly. Though in fairness, that is probably because they didn't know if they'd get a second season, yet. It's frustrating when a show has a cliffhanger and then cancelled, so props to the showrunners for not taking chances.

I liked all three leads, though I think it took the writers about a third of the way through to find the voice for middle sister Mel (Melonie Diaz). A lot of dialogue in general took a little while to find itself. The show tackles activist subject matter, which really works in some episodes, but a lot of early dialogue on the matter felt too hamfisted and unnatural. The show also has a surprisingly strong and abundant supporting cast for a first season. Though I felt a few of the villains didn't fare so well in the character department, again dialogue.

Though the show is a little campy at times, which let's be honest so was the original, I found it to be one of the more engaging shows this year.… Expand

For all the scores that are 1 or zero...why are you still watching if its so bad. I think its really good and the second season has much better writing. People cant just watch, they have to down vote something they probably never even watched.

I just want to see more magic being learned. Their powers evolving. Them learning more on how to be witches. Using more spells and creating spells of their own. More of a history of their powers. Apart from that, this is an awesome reboot and I feel season 2 will be 10x better. I am living for this new charmed.… Expand

This show reminded me of watching a good episode of Charmed or Buffy back in the day, and I never once felt that watching the Sabrina reboot. Sabrina has the production value and the acting chops but about half of the heart of this show. TheThis show reminded me of watching a good episode of Charmed or Buffy back in the day, and I never once felt that watching the Sabrina reboot. Sabrina has the production value and the acting chops but about half of the heart of this show. The drama and the humor of the Charmed reboot doesn't rely solely on mundane teenage boy-girl drama. Give it a shot if other witchy shows have left you disappointed!… Expand

It has nothing to do with the original and that's what's amazing about it. There are three beautiful WOC representing the charmed ones, there's a good amount of representation and it's not only based on "oh you are LGBTQIA that's your plot"It has nothing to do with the original and that's what's amazing about it. There are three beautiful WOC representing the charmed ones, there's a good amount of representation and it's not only based on "oh you are LGBTQIA that's your plot" or "you are POC that's it". There's a nice balance of activism and fiction and they both mingle together pretty well. I'm super excited about season 3 and I hope we get more insight into their lives.… Expand

Great reimagining. The actresses fit together well though season 4 struggle with worrying how to fit it all together.
