Departure of Shannen Doherty Actress Shannen Doherty as Prue Halliwell At the end of the third season, Shannen Doherty left the show, resulting in her character's death, and in the introduction of Rose McGowan's character Paige. While in episode 3.16 the Angel of Death foreshadowed Prue's death, episode 3.22 remained as a cliffhanger, and Prue's death was only established in the season four premiere episode. Fan speculation continues to this day, some pointing to rumours of on-set issues with Doherty regarding punctual appearance at work and tension with co-workers, others putting blame on Alyssa Milano for reasons such as her supposedly asking the show's producers to let Doherty go. These rumours even today lead to harsh debates and flame wars over whether it was Doherty's, Milano's or someone else's "fault" that Doherty left. Doherty's departure is the most known change in Charmed, and while there is debate over whether the show got better or worse after Prue's death, it is most often agreed that after season three the characters' dynamics have changed, and the individual sisters' storylines became more balanced. www.answers.com/main/ntquery;jsessionid=auqqg97os4ild?tname=charmed-1&sbid=lc05a

led to the characters being more "balanced" ? i think not. it doesn't matter what caused Shannen to leave, but the show was definately not the same without her. and not in a good way. just my opinion.

at first when prue had left charmed i really thought that the show was worse than before and plus i didn't like paige at all. but then after some time, i noticed that paige brought kind of fresh air into charmed and the show was getting funnier with her. i also think that roses acting got better the longer she took part in the show. well, in the end, i am still very sad that prue (my fave charmed sister) left but i got used to paige and how the show changed.

Shannen said she left because people was not taking there job seriusly and she did not want to work somewhere where people bitched about there job

I don't know.... I really liked the show before, and after Shannen left. There was just a really different feel in the show, and I really liked it both ways.

Actually, I never thought of Paige as funny. I never laughed at anything she said or did. Phoebe was the funniest sister, in my opinion. But there were times when Piper and Prue made me laugh, but never Paige.
