i think if this was real life and the three were really sister witches then Alyssa would really cry if Shannen you know...died

but if they were really sisters Alyssa probably won't let that happen

I agree with what everyone else has basically said. Her reaction was so unbelievable that it was rather shocking to me that the writers/PTB at Charmed actually had it play out like that. She hardly cried & seemed to get over the fact her sister & best friend was murdered pretty quickly. Kind of insulting to fans, especially after the special bond the 3 of them had, had been reiterated so much through the previous seasons.

Also, no offence to Alyssa's ability, but is it just me or does anyone else think the scene where Pheobe cries while talking to Piper about Prue's jacket seemed quite forced?

Not forced as such, as they made her hold it together for the funeral.
Such bad writing, and the writing got worse. At least with 1-3 if the writing was off, the acting hid it a bit better.

I felt for Rose, she said she cried each time it was picked up for a new series. bless her

^^ What do you mean Rose would cry each time it was picked up for a new series? What are you talking about? Sorry that last line didn't make any sense to me.

I think she means Rose was 'happy' when a new season started.

^^ Oh ok! That makes sense now. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

It was an interview that Rose McGowan did, she stated she cried when it was picked up. I think after the second year she had been playing Paige.
