00:00 A lot of things have been said and a lot of them very hurtful.
00:05 I mean I feel like I should just address the elephant in the room.
00:09 It's an elephant that won't stop growing as Shannon Doherty hits back at Alyssa Milano.
00:15 I've been thrown a lot of curveballs.
00:19 Over Alyssa's reaction to comments Shannon and former Charmed co-star Holly Marie Combs made about her.
00:25 You can't stay mad at me forever.
00:27 And I think back to that time, it was hard for me. It was hard for me.
00:36 But as Shannon tells it, not as hard as her ousting from the series after three seasons.
00:42 And I think we all know I'm talking about Shannon's podcast and Holly and Shannon doing it together.
00:49 I think I cried every single night of season two.
00:53 Shannon taking to her Let's Be Clear podcast last year where Holly alleged that Alyssa was behind her exit.
00:59 There was a lot going on behind the scenes.
01:01 Shannon and Holly reuniting in real life over the weekend at Megacon in Florida.
01:06 Joined by Rose McGowan who replaced Shannon on the Witchy series.
01:11 I think we've been very upfront and taken accountability for and apologized for whatever part I played in the situation.
01:22 Alyssa took the same stage just the day before the trio.
01:26 And while she didn't outright deny the firing claims.
01:29 There is no revisionist history happening.
01:32 Shannon went in on everything Alyssa did say about their behind the scenes drama.
01:37 There is no brush flinging or shoe flinging.
01:40 There is no lateness to set.
01:42 There is no mediator for months on end.
01:44 I recall the facts as if I were still living in them.
01:48 How is your relationship now?
01:50 I would say we are cordial.
01:54 I would say we have respect.
01:58 People change.
02:00 Things change.
02:02 I can take responsibility for a lot of our tensions that we had.
02:10 Alyssa opening up to ET in 2021.
02:13 Looking back on the hit show that ran for eight seasons.
02:16 A legacy everyone agrees is tainted by the ongoing feud.
02:21 I'm the most sad that a show that has meant so much to so many people.
02:27 Has been tarnished by a toxicity that is still to this day, almost a quarter of a century later, still happening.
02:46 We were always made to feel like we were in competition with one another.
02:50 Because there was only room for one corner office.
02:57 And I have some guilt about my part in that.
03:01 And it is only through my battle with cancer that I decided to address this trauma and be open and honest about it.
03:08 As for Shannon's ongoing battle with stage four cancer, Alyssa seemed to reference that on the 'Gram.
03:14 Pinning a message for her three former co-stars as their war of words shows no sign of slowing down.
03:21 I wish Holly, Shannon and Rose peace and light in their personal and professional journeys.
03:29 We all have bigger demons to fight.
03:32 When you go back and you watch the show now, you still love those characters, right?
03:40 So much.
03:41 You still love that show.
03:42 Oh my God.
03:43 So much.
03:44 So much.
03:45 I think that show is very important.
