While speaking at Orlando’s MegaCon, Alyssa Milano was asked about the nearly 25-year-old “Charmed” feud between herself and costars Shannen Doherty and Rose McGowan (and, to a lesser degree, Holly Marie Combs), including what she described as the “toxicity” on the set while Doherty was part of the show. Both at the Friday panel and Saturday on Instagram , Milano expressed her disappointment that the feud persists.
She wrote in part, “I don’t know one other show that has had the success that ‘Charmed’ had where the cast still speaks ill of the experience a quarter of a century later. This is 15 movies and 13 TV shows ago for me. This was 11 years before my 15 year marriage and 13 years before having my first child. This was so long ago that any retelling of these stories from anyone is just revisionist history.”
In December, Doherty and Combs chatted about why the former was booted from “Charmed” on the podcast “Let’s Be Clear with Shannen Doherty.” Doherty’s character was killed off in Season 3 after rumors of on-set fighting between the women. In the podcast episode, Doherty and Combs both agree that Milano was the one who had Doherty fired.
