Supposedly, this is going to (loosely) tie into the original. These three girls are going to also be a part of the Melinda Warren family tree.

Exactly! All your points, which is why I don't like it.
To me, it does not look better than the original, the acting is terrible the sets too dark. Not vibing on this. I don't want any remake just to have a remake; If I watch a remake, I expect t it to be great. Sorry, this is not that.
So am I write in assuming that they'll avoid pairing off the whitelighter and one of the sisters in this version given the obvious age difference between the actors?
The long lost sister is gorgeous, but the other two broads are a sight for sore eyes. I wonder what the tone will be, cause Charmed started out as a supernatural drama show, then turned into a lighter fantasy show.
As someone who watched the original from the time it started until the time it ended....neither was the original. The acting in the original was not good. As to the sets being too dark ,the original went from being moody and atmospheric to campier and sillier as the seasons progressed. Glad to see that they are at least starting out with a vibe that more resembles the original's first couple of seasons.
Hopefully they won't make the same mistakes the original series did.
Right...but I never said the original was good, lol! I just said this remake was not better than the original. Heck, it is not even as good!
The original was not dark; it was fun, mysterious and had good pacing. A little ditzy, stupid and unbelievable here and there with a "TV show" types of ways of getting out of problems.
Correct me if I'm wrong but this isn't a improvement its a potential one but not an actual improvement for me it depends on what they do with it.
So you didn't like Leo, I thought he was alright but that they didn't really give him a lot as they shouldn't have because the show was about the sisters
It's also easier to use as a plot device, plus unless the sister is a black belt knowing how he plans to move doesn't do anything if you cant fight back, can't win a fight if you are always running away from them.
One of the sisters dating a member of the same sex isn't a improvement well to me anyway sorry this show can still suck no matter how many LGBT people they cast if the story isn't there it can still suck.
Truth is the best policy
Sad to see this bad Buffy rip-off getting a second chance.
