Milano career no longer CHARMED

TV’s Alyssa Milano has led a rather CHARMED TV career. From the time she was a young girl, she’s been on long-running hit shows. The Tony Danza-Judith Light vehicle, Who’s the Boss?, led her through her childhood, and the Aaron Spelling-created CHARMED matured her into adulthood for eight seasons, with virtually no bad breaks or poor career moves.

Reinventing the Wheelers has changed that run of blessing and good fortune. The pilot has not even been ordered to series at this late date, and may never air. In the show, Milano plays a big-city lawyer who returns to a slower pace of life to help prop up her father’s firm. Like, by adding contemporary office furniture as well as her own legal services to dad’s practice.

And all her “wacky friends” live there.

It’s a dry, by-the-numbers schtick we’ve seen many times before, and better-done. While Milano still engenders good will, if Reinventing the Wheelers never airs, it may be the best post-CHARMED thing to happen to her career, period.
