Zenescope Resurrects Charmed
Hooray for ’90s TV shows! Who doesn’t love ‘em? I’m certainly head over heels for those flashy, over-the-top, or just plain weird opening credits. But the 1990s, lingering a full decade behind us now, consequently tallies quite a laundry list of retired shows—including Charmed, one of my favorite late ’90s spots.
While Buffy the Vampire Slayer, for instance, continues to soak up all those rays of undying fan love, Charmed has now joined the party thanks to Zenescope Entertainment. Learn more about the upcoming series at OneMetal.com.
Constance M. Burge’s Charmed (1998-2006) bubbled up from Spelling Entertainment and ensnared viewers with three gorgeous good witches. The original sisters—Prue (Shannen Doherty), Piper (Holly Marie Combs), and Phoebe (Alyssa Milano)—later discovered an unknowing fourth, Paige (Rose McGowan), but despite the trio, the North American television series captured audiences with fashionable witchcraft, pulled them in with romantic ardor, and riveted them with murderous demons and dusty spell books. The premiere episode itself garnered 7.7 million viewers, shattering previous Warner Brothers Network records for most successful debut, and the show eventually nabbed the honor for the longest running hour-long show featuring all female leads.
