10 More TV Shows That Just Got Cancelled

10. Charmed

This list kicks off with just one of the many recent high-profile shows cancelled by The CW, with the reboot of classic fantasy-drama series Charmed.

Charmed debuted in 2018 to considerable fan skepticism about the very notion of a reboot, though reviews were broadly positive out of the gate regardless.

However, Charmed was hardly a ratings smash, and its viewing figures dwindled with each new season - surely unaided by the departure of one of its lead, Madeleine Mantock, at the end of season three.

Before its fourth season had even finished airing, The CW announced that Charmed wouldn't be returning for a fifth, and though no official reason was cited, we can assume it was due to meagre ratings.

Overall for a show that failed to generate much of a spark, four seasons is pretty good innings. Nevertheless, it's clear that the new Charmed couldn't match the iconic appeal - or charm, even - of its predecessor, which ran for eight seasons.

Given that this is the second Charmed reboot that didn't work out long-term - CBS aborted their own attempted reboot in 2014 before filming even began - showing that the IP is probably best left alone.
