Danny Masterson off the show
quote:

Netflix cuts ties with The Ranch star Danny Masterson amid rape allegations

quote:

Masterson responded to the news in a statement provided to Huffington Post by his attorney: “I am obviously very disappointed in Netflix’s decision to write my character off of The Ranch. From day one, I have denied the outrageous allegations against me. I have never been charged with a crime, let alone convicted of one.”


I hate how these allegations have turned the due process in these siutations. Writing someone off of their job without any thorough investigation is bullshite. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty?

quote:

This past March, three women told the Los Angeles police department that Masterson sexually assaulted them in the early 2000s, PEOPLE reported.

I do hope Masterson is cleared if he is indeed innocent because I believe a lot of women are striking while iron is hot right now, unfortunately. With that said, the Ranch is not that good and I'm not really that upset. The mom is both one of the worst written characters and worst actresses I've ever seen. The back and forth with her and Sam Elliott is so goddamn annoying.

NetFlix already was taking heat for an executive that had said they didn't believe the allegations. I don't know if they got new info or just did a cost benefit analysis, but they changed their stance. You can definitely be tried and convicted on social media by the mob these days.

Only applies to a court of law. Unless you think OJ got a bum rap too.

I've never seen the show but I read about the allegations a month or so ago and they seemed fairly credible.

Wanted to like it. Made it 4 or 5 minutes due to the Chuck Lorre-style, obnoxious, over-the-top laugh track.

Danny is a Scientologist and they've been suppressing this type of information for their members for some time. It's one of the perks to joining their cult.

Just so we're clear...are "rape" and "sexual assault" the same thing and interchangeable words?

All of these rape allegations are going to turn society into a middle school dance. No guy is going to want to interact with the opposite sex

I have a real due process concerns in general as well, but it appears Netflix has done an investigation. It's not like they heard an accusation and just fired him then and there. This has been brewing for some time. And Masterson has been dogged by these charges for years.

He's probably the wrong poster boy for the due process fight. Especially given Scientology's track record of intimidating witnesses and the like.

Well shite there goes another top tier Netflix show.

They're continuing without him beyond 2018 so the title is wrong but he is such an important character I don't see how it will continue to be so popular without Danny.

You realize that applies to how the government treats people charged with crimes and not how employers treat their employees, right?
