How That ’90s Show Handles Hyde’s Absence

This week Netflix brought us back to Point Place with That ’90s Show, a reboot of That ’70s Show set almost 20 years after the original series’ end. Eric (Topher Grace), Donna (Laura Prepon), Red (Kurtwood Smith), Kitty (Debra Jo Rupp), Jackie (Mila Kunis), Kelso (Ashton Kutcher), and Fez (Wilmer Valderrama) all return for the new sitcom, but you may be wondering: Where’s Hyde? The short answer is, Steven Hyde (Danny Masterson) doesn’t appear in That ’90s Show due to Masterson’s legal troubles. The actor was accused of raping three unnamed women in 2017, with the alleged incidents taking place between 2001 and 2003. The trial ended in a hung  jury in 2022, and a new trial is set for March. Masterson and the Church of Scientology, of which he is a member, have ...

Danny Masterson Rape Trial Ends With Hung Jury

The judge in Danny Masterson’s rape trial declared a mistrial on Wednesday after the jurors said they were unable to reach verdict on any of the charges.

Harassment Suit Against Danny Masterson Headed to Scientology Mediation After Judge’s Ruling

A judge has ruled that four of five allegations of stalking and intimidation filed again Danny Masterson must be mediated within the Church of Scientology. The case was filed last summer, alleging that Masterson and the Church of Scientology threatened and harassed four women and one of their husbands who had publicly accused the disgraced That ’70s Show actor of sexual assault. Because four of the complainants — Chrissie Carnell Bixler; her husband, At the Drive-In frontman Cedric Bixler-Zavala; and two Jane Does — were previously members of Scientology and signed an arbitration agreement with the Church, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Steven Kleifield ruled those charges must mediated by Scientology officials. A fourth woman, Marie Bobette Riales, was never a member of the Churc...
