Well, there it’s. So a lot for the Power of Three.
The feuding behind the scenes of Charmed is the stuff of TV legend, nevertheless it’s rapidly turning into a matter of file, due to Shannen Doherty‘s new podcast.
For those that haven’t heard, Let’s Be Clear just isn’t solely a podcast, it’s serving as Shannen’s oral memoirs, and he or she’s chosen to get among the dirtiest laundry out of the way in which early. She introduced on co-star Holly Marie Combs, and the 2 have been dishing all of the dust on what went on when the cameras weren’t rolling. And on Monday’s episode, Holly lastly let the most important acquainted out of the bag. The rumors had been true: Alyssa Milano received Shannen fired!!!
From the second Shannen’s character Prue Halliwell was killed off on the finish of Season 3 (nicely, actually in between seasons), the rumors began to swirl it was due to the whispered feud along with her TV sister.

Now, over twenty years later, Holly has confirmed it! Moreover, she says it wasn’t that Shannen give up, she received pushed out by Alyssa! She recalled how present producer Jonathan Levin defined it to her:
“‘We didn’t mean to — but we’ve been backed into this corner — we’re basically in this position where it’s one or the other. We were told it’s her or [Shannen] and Alyssa has threatened to sue us for a hostile workplace environment.’”
Wha??
Yes, per Holly, their co-star had “documented every time she felt uncomfortable on set” in an effort to construct a case and pressure producers’ fingers. But Holly says it was all BS as, feud or no, Shannen didn’t do something flawed. She mentioned, clearly nonetheless upset:
“There are actually people who behave badly and get away with it. I don’t think people understand that never happened here.”
Holly was so upset, she mentioned she’d go away the present, too — however claims Levin advised her she’d get sued if she tried to stroll! Damn!
This is a big accusation towards Alyssa, who has managed to appear like she was taking the excessive floor all these years. In 2013, she was requested on Watch What Happens Live whether or not Shannen received fired, and he or she demurred:
“I don’t know if she got fired, we never really found out what happened. I can tell you that we were on the air with her for three years and there were definitely some rough days. Holly and Shannen were best friends for like 10 years before the show started so it was very much sort of like high school. I would hope that in our thirties it wouldn’t feel like that anymore.”
Notice no point out of it being such a “hostile workplace” that she wanted to doc an entire listing — or that she knew very nicely Shannen was fired as a result of she’s the one who made it occur. So, we will’t know for positive if that is true, as it’s their phrase towards hers at this level. Oof.
