Thread: Charmed (2018)

  1. #1
    Wow, I didn't know they were doing a remake. Figures, since everything seems to be a remake/reboot these days. Of course they chose women of color. Fine by me though (I like all shades ). Don't think the show will last. Another show I won't be watching.

    Go on give it a try, it ain`t that bad.... and (unrelated) I actually like the Magnum reboot so far.

    Airwolf has got to be coming soon and as long as Blue Thunder, Street Hawk and Manimal all remain dead the world is not totally lost. Now Automan and Otherworld remakes would be interesting, Cursor was killed off far too young

    The original Charmed was thinly disguised T&A. Turning it into some faux feminist message is basically sacrilegious.

    No doubt some liberal is behind it as they don't believe in God.

    Also do noteth blaspheme Blue Thunder, hippie.
    Clearly the sheer originality of "maverick cop with unorthodox methods" is lost on you.

    Btw the best thing about Airwolf was totally the absurd art collection he had at his place in the woods.

    I am going to have to engage Whisper mode now. Yes why wouldn`t you have a button for that, why make it normal mode when you can add value with a little light up button.

    Best thing about Airwolf was surely the fact he can fire a Mav out of a 2inch 4 round rocket launcher... well any missile really. As long as it was badly dubbed in or that yellow/orange blob graphic then that is 80`s TV.

    I'd rather rewatch the original Charmed. I watched Magnum and MacGyver growing up. Can't even think about watching the remakes.

    What about the A-Team? They did a movie (bad by the way). Hunter was a good show. There seems to be a never ending run of cop shows on TV.

    I hardly doubt there's some liberal behind it as a feminist agenda. This seems to be a remake/reboot era. The supernatural shows are loved by the millennials. We've had enough vampire stuff, so let's do witches. Charmed was a hit and they still air reruns. A broad audience will watch it (guys, gals, lesbians and gays). It can potentially make a ton of money. That's what it is all about. It won't last long if the writing sucks and they can't come up with good story lines.

    The official blurb is fairly transparent on this matter, though...

    Charmed is a reimagining of the original Aaron Spelling 1998 to 2006 series. The new show will be 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.

    That is already on the share drive (original that is before they remake it, as is the original Charmed). Sliders and Bab5 more ones to hope they bring back

    They can remake bad and mediocre stuff to their heart's content for there is a potential upside. Good, fondly remembered shows though....

    I'm sure the show will just be a supernatural drama showing women with confidence taking the lead, instead of just men, like usual. It's just a TV show, people put too much thought into nonsense. If you like it fine, if not, watch something else.

    I just find that when the new shows start every year and then you have the new seasons of the old shows that you thought were shit and yet they got renewed and the ones you actually thought were entertaining got canned That sucks more than myself having to go back to the original 8 seasons of Two and a Half Men (Of course with Charlie Sheen!!), and watch that again for the 20th time, for me to still get a laugh and not have to watch the 50th season of Dancing With the Stars or Survivor (Ya i know it is your favorite Idol). I actually starting to re-watch the tv show Life (Damian Lewis ,Sarah Shahi)..
    And shit i may have to go back to watch Mad Men

    PS. I think someone mentioned they don't mind the new Magnum P I remake?? That i will have to figure out, But i will say me personally i don't mind the remake of Hawaii Five O, but saying it was as good or better than the original?? Ah!! i would say no..............
