Charlie's Angels was never a quality series when it started out, but it had charm and some iconic women that became very popular. The feature films was actually better and a good sense of humor, decent acting for a the type and a story that was somewhat coherent, plus a good tie-in with the original.
Both projects had charm, and a kind of humor in not taking itself seriously.
The new TV-series is simply totally awful if the first episode can be judged as a meter. It takes itself seriously, which already have destroyed the James Bond-films. No one can or should take this serious especially when the quality is awful in everything but the exploding things (the pyrotechnics are OK, but boom-boom gets very boring soon).
The characters are poor, the writing poor and if this was rewrites as it is said from the first project trying to get this back on TV, then we can only pity the ones involved in that.
The acting was absolutely horrific. None of the the four main characters could act their way out of a paper bag. They are solely cast due to looks, and skinny looks at that. Usually one model actor in every series can act a little bit, in this case none of them can act to save their lives. They think attitude is acting.
Only pubescent viewers that find the skinny models attractive can find any enjoyment in watching them.
This is one series I will not mourn when they bury it before all episodes have been aired.
