I’ve just learned that Charmed has finally been cancelled.
For those that haven’t seen the show, it’s about three witch sisters who spend their time bralessly vanquishing demons.
There’s no question that this is a terrible show. From the derivative plots and crappy effects all the way to the third-rate extras and freakish costume design, this show is the poster child for bad TV. Far better shows bit the dust while this one has inexplicably made it through eight seasons.
And yet, in spite of what my mind tells me is a bad, bad show, I feel sad. Its badness is so comfortable, so familiar, I’ll miss it. Nothing on TV can match its transcendent, audacious level of badness.
Except maybe 24.
