Forever Charmed

[Brad] Kern said: "Prue's memory will be kept alive and be honored, but we didn't ask Shannen to come back... The show is more about the sisters who are here, not the one who's not." Kern said during the set visit that many of the fans' favorite characters from the past will be returning. The three sisters' grandmother and mom (Penny and Patty), the "future Chris" and others will be joining the end of the show for the wedding of Phoebe. "In one scene we will have 12 characters," Kern said. "It will include family from the past and also future generations to show that the life of Charmed will go on, even if it's not on TV."

The Charmed ones have officially cast their last spell. Multiple sources confirm that execs behind the new CW network have decided to pull the plug on the eight-year drama. The final episode will air Sunday, May 21. [...] Executive producer Brad Kern [...] says he always intended to write this season's last episode as a series finale. "It's been a hell of a run," he says, "but all good things must come to an end." Details of the final episode are being kept under wraps, but fan favorite Brian Krause will likely be back. And what about Shannen Doherty? Says my Charmed mole: "I wouldn't count on it." Source: The Ausiello Report

"No." That was the simple heart-wrenching answer given by Rose McGowan when asked if there might be another season of the WB cult hit series. "My contract's done. Other contracts are done, so no. [Laughs] No." [...] When asked if fan favorite Leo (Brian Krause) might return -- which fans are dying to see! -- Rose answered with a wink and a smile, saying, "I think so. I hope Leo comes back. I hope he will, and I think he will. We love Brian." Source: Kristin on E!Online

Brad Kern reveals: The goal for me is to take the series out the way it began. It's interesting that one of the criticisms, rightfully so, is about the lack of sisterhood, but I'm building to it being all about sisters. Even when we talk about Kaley Cuoco's Billie, we're going to be bringing her sister, Christy, into the show [played by recent Supernatural guest star Marnette Patterson], working around the final ultimate battle. That seems kind of poetic because that's what the series has fundamentally always been about, and that's how it will end. Source: TV Guide Online

Brad Kern: "There's every likelihood" that this will be the show's final season. "The girls' contracts are up this season, and I wouldn't imagine that they would want to, or should be expected to, come back after devoting pretty much their entire 20s to Charmed. But you can never say never." Source: Ask Ausiello @ TV Guide
