Shannen Doherty's former Charmed co-stars have branded the late star's final episode "the worst" of the show

And Holly and Brian Krause recently blasted the "sick and twisted" way their late friend was ditched from Charmed.

Speaking on The House of Halliwell, their Charmed rewatch podcast, Holly grew emotional as she said: "There was just so many different ways it could have been handled.

And the fact of the matter is it was handled so s*******. It was such massive insult to injury to let her direct it and go out on this high note. Like, it's just so sick and twisted."

Holly noted they wouldn't be "naming names" over Shannen's exit because people are afraid to talk about it, but claimed no one was aware their friend's job was at risk at the time but her former co-star received a call during the show's hiatus to break the news.

Brian added: "Nobody wants to speak their truth because they feel like they'll be hated by the fandom, by the thing, by their former workers."

He also noted Charmed before and after Shannen's departure felt like two different shows, while Holly rated All Hell Breaks Loose a zero because of the surrounding circumstances.

She said: "I think it's the worst episode ever."

Holly previously claimed Shannen was left go from the witchcraft series as show bosses feared Alyssa would sue for a "hostile workplace environment" if she was not forced out.

Speaking on Shannen's Let's Be Clear podcast, she said: "Jonathan [Levin, producer] said, '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,'" Combs recalled.

"'We were told (by Alyssa) it's her or (Shannen) and Alyssa has threatened to sue us for a hostile workplace environment.'"

Former Beverly Hills 90210 star Shannen later claimed that Holly's claims were correct as she insisted that at that point in her illness, she wanted to make sure the "truth" about things was out there and understood.

She said: "Holly and I, we were not mean on the podcast - my podcast, Let's Be Clear.

"In fact, we went in and we edited out anything that we felt would cause more drama.

"We simply told the truth because the truth actually does matter. But we wanted to try to save you, the fans, from heartbreak as much as humanly possible.

""At this point in my life with my health diagnosis - I'm sorry if I start crying - with fighting horrific disease every day of my life, it is also incredibly important to me that the truth actually be told as opposed to the narrative that others put out there for me.

"We told it together, we told our truths and we are standing by our truths."
