Im a lover of supernatural tv shows. Charmed, Buffy Angel to name a few. I was gutted when they ended. Now they are rebooting them. Charmed has already been reboot with an entirely new cast and I think its pretty awful. I struggled watching the first episode. Should shows be reboot? If so with original cast or not? |

"I don't understand it either
If they were pulled in the first place why would a whole new revamp/cast make them any better ..its a bit daft "
Buffy is getting reboot. I loved the show. I have everyone on video box sets lol
But stsrting the story all over again is bad enough. Nrw cast woukd be a disaster.
I dont want a new willow or zander. Especially a new Buffy is disasterous. We grew up loving these actors and their characters. X |

Ive watched the first episode. Definitely darker. I might give this another try. I liked the original series as it was funny. This is completely different. Could get interesting x |

"The dumbing down continues- instead of coming up with something new and fresh they just lazily reboot a previous success "
Exactly. If you havent seen the original series then I suppose its ok but those who loved the original series really dont need a reboot.
If they brought back all the original cast and continued the storyline where they left off id definitely love to watch again. But new cast like Charmed is a huge no no. |

The original series was a kid friendly version of the original story..
Buffy originally a film.
There are origans to most of the shows we thought of as original at the time...
I probably wouldnt watch reboots or if I did not enkoy them due in part to my own nostagia of the originals.. but if a new generation get to enjoy the stories then why not |

If find the constant reference to The Dark Lord and Satan offputting. Americans are always mixing the two up and it irritates the crap out of me but i find the darker aspect appealling. |

I guess it's because these shows are generally aimed at a younger audience who haven't seen the original and are trying to repeat this earlier success at with a new generation. That could be seen as laziness if they're not introducing anything new. |

I suppose time will tell how well they do. Not sure if Charmed reboot is popular though. It was huge the original series.
Buffy the film flopped, so they tried a series and that was huge. I think the casting makes a big difference too. |
