If the reboot was the same story as the original, recasting the halliwell sisters and doing the same thing all over again, then I'd have an issue with it because that would actually affect the original series. Quote:

Heck Macy, Maggie, and Mel could have been students or their mother could have been a student at the school. There were many ways to do a reboot or a sequel or a spin off without trying to replicate what the original had with the sisters. |

Magic school was an awful addition lol A show about kids in a magic school doesn't sound like Charmed, more like a Harry Potter rip off. Charmed is about 3 sisters that use the power of 3 to protect the innocent and ward off evil. Perhaps the reboot could have had a slightly altered title, but as I've said the original is still completely intact.

So, has it been canned before or after airing episodes with the new witch? I feel like they were going to struggle to run with the premise for it and it may be a blessing in disguise.
As much as I loved the original Charmed I think the quality really took a dip when Shannon left and Rose came on. I think they'd have just ended up treading the same path. I'd still like to see some sort of continuation in the original universe though. Quote:
As much as I liked the ending of the finale episode the journey to get there, and putting up with Billie and Christie, was a slog. Season 7 put the sisters as the full central focus and gave them a happy ending that could easily have worked as THE ending. Last edited by jajay119; 13-05-22 at 17:49. |

They could have made an entire show about Billie and only Billie. What a massive missed opportunity.
Of course I'm not serious !

Also the sisters got really unlikeable towards the end, so I don't blame Billie and Christie for turning against them so easily lmao Christie made some good points. |

The Magicians being one of them and they completely separated themselves from HP by how mature the show was. |

Now I'm pissed, they ended the reboot showing the original manor and the writer in interviews confirmed that Season 5 would have tied both shows together. They also wanted cameos from the original actors in season 5.
I'm mad now |
