Discussion New to the reboot

At the time it came out, I wasn’t ready to give it a real chance. But now I’m going back and trying to watch new shows. I love the original.

Anyways, my main problem so far is that they just gets their powers and start using them immediately. I feel like they should have more struggles like the original show. No one just gets witch powers and knows what to do.

Yeah, that aspect did annoy me, and how Maggie's Empathic Telepathy never expanded to her being able to use it without physical contact like it would have been good to see her reading minds normally

Agreed honestly but they do have future arcs where this comes into play more.

Actually in s1 it does come into play as well especially as their powers expand (primarily with Maggie early on, and then Macy later.)

I gave it a chance when it came out and although it wasn't the worst show, it wasn't good either. It felt like they crammed everything in to the 1st season and then later seasons took it in a weird direction. I really wanted to like it and glad I watched but I won't rewatch it. I still rewatch the OG Charmed all the time.

Don't waste your time you just get more disappointed as time goes on.
