When Prue Halliwell was killed off in the third season of Charmed, there was only one name to blame as far as fans were concerned. No, it wasn’t Shax but rather Alyssa Milano, whose reported behind-the-scenes feud with Shannon Doherty led to her onscreen sister dying in the season finale, “All Hell Breaks Loose.” Now, Milano is speaking out against the claim, saying she didn’t even have the pull to have someone removed from the show.
In an Instagram post, Alyssa Milano wrote of the allegations against her over the Charmed drama, “This was so long ago that any retelling of these stories from anyone is just revisionist history. I will add, though, with absolute certainty-everything was documented. There was a professional mediator (I was told Holly [Marie Combs] and Shannen would not participate in any mediation) and an on-set producer/babysitter who were both brought in to investigate all claims.

Alyssa Milano has responded to reports that she was responsible for Shannon Doherty’s exit from fantasy drama hit show Charmed back in 2001.
Milano this week told an audience of fans during a panel in Orlando: “I knew this was going to come up in one way or another, and I want to be very thoughtful in how I respond to any of this, and I will just say that I’m sad.”
While not denying the claims, she added: “I don’t think it’s really that I’m sad for me or my life or how it does or does not affect my life.”
She continued: “I’m the most sad for the fans. I am the most sad that a show that has meant so much to so many people has been tarnished by a toxicity that is still to this day almost a quarter of a century later still happening.

Tributes poured in from all corners of Hollywood when the news came of Matthew Perry’s death at age 54 on Saturday. The actor, best known for starring as Chandler Bing in “Friends,” was found dead in a hot tub at his home in Los Angeles.
Many of the sentiments posted online Saturday pointed to Perry as the heart of the humor in “Friends.” As written in a tribute by Variety‘s chief correspondent Daniel D’Addario, “the character’s caustic wit, as performed by a master comic actor, presented as nothing more and nothing less than observational humor about his friends: One degree harsher and it would have tanked the show, one degree softer and it wouldn’t have landed.”
Several also referenced Perry’s struggle with alcoholism and drug addiction, which he discussed publicly throughout his career, especially in his memoir “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing.”
“We are shocked and deeply,...

Shannon Doherty isn’t letting her ongoing cancer battle bring her down.
A week after sharing her struggles with cancer on social media, Doherty put on a smile as she went out to eat with her mother, Rosa, yesterday in Malibu this week.
The 90210 actress was initially diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2015 and has gone through eight rounds of chemotherapy and radiation treatments, as well as a mastectomy. She entered remission in 2017 but revealed in 2020 that her cancer had advanced to stage 4 breast cancer. Recently, she revealed that her cancer has spread to her brain, which led to the requirement for brain surgery to remove the tumor.
Earlier this month, Doherty began a series of videos showing her time in the hospital, as she went through a Ct scan, got fitted for a mask to wear during radiation treatment and prepared for the surgery.

1999 is often considered one of the greatest years in Hollywood history. From "The Matrix" to "Fight Club," many films released that year remain important cultural touchstones. The 1990s was also one of the most prolific eras for independent filmmaking; the classics from this decade run the gamut from funny, to tragic, to downright strange. Those three words provide a succinct description of the 1999 classic "Girl, Interrupted," a film that still resonates today, especially with the younger generations of young women.
"Girl, Interrupted" is based on Susanna Kaysen's memoir of the same name, and follows an 18-year-old girl who checks herself into a psychiatric hospital in 1967. While there, Susanna (Winona Ryder) meets a group of eclectic women who make her question where insanity truly lies: inside the mental institution, or outside of its walls? Some of the brightest stars of the late '90s play Susanna's fellow residents, including Angelina Jolie...

Welcome to this week’s Monday Night Raw review, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have…well, I’m changing the review scale. I’ve been wanting to do this for about a year or so and I’ve finally decided to just do it. It’s pretty simple: 0-10. That’s it. No decimal point scoring I’ve been doing a conversion for the 0-5 with decimal scoring by basing that off of my 0-10 way of thinking any-way, so screw it. This will make it easier to score these suckers so I can get to my actual reviews of the matches. Okay, let’s take our pants off and shove a turkey up our asses, because that’s what watching Raw often feels like. It’s 4th dimensional! Doc Brown: Marty! I’ve repaired the Flux Capacitor! Great Scott! We can now return to...
