Sarah Jeffery & 'Charmed' Sisters Are Ignoring The Negativity About New Series

There’s been quite a lot of talk about the new Charmed series with Sarah Jeffery, Melonie Diaz, and Madeleine Mantock – some have been positive, but a lot has also been negative.

“We’re new characters living in a world. It’s a new set of witches who’ve discovered they have powers. I think it’s maybe a misconception to say it’s a rip-off,” Madeleine shared with US Weekly in a new interview.

She adds that the positive remarks are what they all are paying attention to: “I saw somebody yesterday describe it as a tribute to [the original] and I thought that was quite nice.”

“Some of them [original stars] have been vocal about giving support,” Sarah adds. “Rose [McGowan] I know was [supportive]…She said, ‘Fly girls fly’ and that was so kind of her to say that. It was really nice.”

Madeleine continued that “everyone’s allowed their own opinion and I think it’s testament to how much fans really love and cherished Charmed for what it is.”

“There are lots of people who are really excited for it. So I’ve got my ears open to them and I’m hoping we can turn some people on to it as well because I do, I think it’s a really good show.”

Charmed will premiere this October on The CW.
