chosensparkles Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 7 minutes ago, MrLovett said: I find it fascinating that you continue to try and re-write history, as if the new actresses didn't bad-mouth the original first. It's blatantly misleading. I personally don't see an issue with the original actresses being unhappy that they weren't asked to be involved in any capacity when the reboot is essentially using the (still prevalent and high vocal) fanbase of the original without effectively paying tribute to the original. The original is still overwhelmingly loved (unlike the car crash reboot), so for them to not involve the original cast in any capacity is pretty disrespectful and rightfully ruffled feathers. but that had nothing to do with the new actresses in the first place Holly, Alyssa and Rose all came for them the only time the new actresses replied to them negatively was when Sarah responded to Holly's attack like a season ago the OG actresses acted like Charmed was some sort of Emmy winning TV series that revolutionalized TV back then and was having HUGE ratings when it had the same reach as the new one aka a small portion of people tuning in compared to other shows reboots don't owe anything to the actresses/actors beforehand tbh pretty sure they would have been more positive about the old one if Holly/Alyssa and Rose didn't attack the new show when announced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially because it paid tribute in no way to the original that it was leeching off of. Then multiple people involved in the reboot, including the new actresses, repeatedly shaded the original show. But you're upset the OG's shaded back? For an alleged "fan" you sure have a dislike for the original show and cast. You can appreciate the new version without lying about the original. Literally what's the point?

Charmed had the most watched pilot of the WB up until that point and was consistently the 2nd most watched show of the network after 7th Heaven. It was a global success and was revolutionary at its time. Its feministic themes abiut female empowerment have been taught in universities.

"Occasionally good" is better than the "never good" the reboot achieved. And history repeated itself, with the new cast hating each other as well.

The same reach as the new one? This just shows you have no idea what you're talking about, and disregards anything else you've mentioned. In 2000, it was reported, "Charmed has been averaging about 5.8 million viewers this season, the WB's second-highest-rated show behind 7th Heaven (8.2 million viewers). It's done so in a tough timeslot, airing at 9pm opposite Who Wants to Be a Millionaire on ABC and Will & Grace on NBC" In 2001, it was reported, "Generally lost somewhere in the shuffle of last week's announcement about Buffy the Vampire Slayer moving from The WB to UPN next season is the fact that, while widely acknowledged as the network's signature show, Buffy is not its number-one show - or even its number two. The network's No. 1 rated spot is taken by the Monday-night family saga 7th Heaven, while Charmed is the second highest. 'Everybody's always surprised to find out we're actually a higher-rated show', says Brad Kern, executive producer of Charmed, which is rated just ahead of third-place Buffy."

So you’re comparing a 5.8M audience when most shows got over 30M viewers each night to a show that averaged like 400k this season in a world of shows not getting more than 4-5M viewers each episode worms for brains. Also Charmed never touched Buffy’s timelessness and quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not forget they were both on well-known, major, television networks. Like why would you compare this tragic reboot to the likes of the original when the OG "Charmed" was the #2 show on the fairly new "WB". The reboot did not have the same reach, not even close. Even their #1 critical darling, "7th Heaven", was averaging 7M viewers. And "Buffy" wasn't even Top 2 on "The WB" when they moved over to UPN. Not only are you brainless, but your age is showing.
