Charmed (2018) Trailer Recap



OH MY GOD YOU GUYS, IT'S HERE!!! The Charmed reboot trailer that everyone DIDN'T WANT!!! Lol, I don't know how this show came to be, I don't know how it was picked up... there's just too much happening in this trailer and I'm not sure if it spans over the Pilot episode or over the first five... or three. I just don't know. But here I am, going to recap the mini trailer because for some reason I decided I was going to recap the entire reboot series and most likely hate every part of it. So if you're here to read decent, happy, posts... this place most likely isn't for you. Anyways, without further ado, let's get on with this trailer!!!

We get the first look at the Vera Manor, the same house that was used in Witches of East End. Two of the sisters are hanging out with their mother, Marisol played by Valerie Cruz. She's telling her daughters how lucky she is to have two amazing young women as her daughters, blah blah blaaaah. There are a few clips that flashes before our eyes like some woman who's staring at the manor, Marisol casting some spell, smoke pouring into the attic, crows out of Ravenswood comes cawing in and then Marisol sends her girls a text asking them to immediately come home(Also notice the modern day text on the screen thing? They can try to differentiate between the original show and this new one, but they fail). The sisters runs up to their attic to find the window smashed and their mother somehow fell out of the window.... OMG THEY TURNED CHARMED INTO A FRICKIN MURDER MYSTERY!!?? What??? This isn't what Charmed was about in the 90's?!?!? 

Anyway, moving on, the two sisters are having a falling out and one of them is obsessed with figuring out her mother's death. Then all of a sudden some woman, the same one who was staring up at the manor earlier, knocks on their door and announces, "I think I'm your sister!!!" Oh my fucking God, this is only the trailer and this show is going too fucking fast for me... we've basically been shoved Seasons 1 through 4 down our fucking throats, let's be fucking real?? 

As a new clip goes by, one of the sisters are talking to a friend when all of a sudden... OMG EVERYTHING FREEZES!! Like everything. Seriously, I mean everything to the bird flying outside to the creamer the barista is pouring into someones latte. Like what the fuck? Why is her power stronger than Piper's was already??? This is bullshit, shouldn't it start out small? 

Then the older sister is at the bar talking to some friend who keeps bothering her to the point where she lashes out at him and her beer bottle flings out of her fucking hand and smashes into the wall... Can I please ask how the fuck the two girls are triggering their powers?? Are they both going to use their eyes? Or is it all a mind thing now? The last sister gets to obtain the power of telepathy where she gets to hold onto someones hand and read their minds. Oh my God, how lucky is she?!?! 

After the girls gets kidnapped by their whitelighter, Harry, he explains how they're the most powerful witches in all the land and they have a duty to honor their mother.... Listen, I know this is a reboot, but this is seriously like watching the first four fucking seasons of the original show. Can we please get new content?? And they're even using the triquetra on their Book... like can it PLEASE be something different?? Can they please rename this show before October? My God, please!!!

This is from "Charmed"


My all time favorite part of this trailer is when they introduce a demon to the show and it looks like a total Supernatural rip off!!! The demons eyes are black with black spirals flowing up... SUPER. NATURAL. RIP. OFF!!!! God I fucking hate this show already and it's not even October yet... And then by the very end of this trailer, the three sisters are besties???? Shouldn't the long lost sister thing last for a whole season? A season and a half?? Can we please get this show axed ASAP??? This is so horrible, so cringy, and a blatant Supernatural rip off... Aye yi yi...

This is from Supernatural


Can't wait til October... 

Peace + Love!
