7 Stars Who Regret Their TV Roles In The ’90s

In the harsh conditions of fierce competition, young actors grab at any opportunity to show their worth on the big or small screen. Everyone has to start somewhere, right? Besides, even if you’re an established star, sometimes you just want to expand your portfolio to prevent being typecast. These circumstances sometimes lead to the actors signing the contract and then horribly regretting it. Even if the show was incredibly popular, it doesn’t mean that everything went smoothly behind the scenes.

Here are seven stars who regret their TV roles in the 90s.

1. Roy Scheider – SeaQuest

Scheider was promised an underwater sci-fi adventure, and to be fair, at first, it was as advertised. But the later seasons became mind-numbingly dumb. He even openly called it “childish trash” on live TV! Ouch.

2. Amy Jo Johnson – Mighty Morphin Power Rangers

We all remember the gorgeous Pink Ranger played by Amy. The show was popular then and is still rolling today, so what went wrong for Johnson? Apparently, the whole cast was severely underpaid and didn’t receive any extra fees for syndication. The 90s’ were harsh.

3. Shannen Doherty – Charmed

Charmed was one of those “guilty pleasure” shows. You watched it, you experienced the emotions, and then you’d never talk to anyone about it. And of course, Shannen Doherty was a huge part of that show. She gave us her best witch impression, and in return, the producers fired her after three seasons. I’d be mad too!
