When That ’70s Show co-star Danny Masterson was sentenced to 30-to-life in prison, the world watched—but reactions from his former sitcom family were far from uniform.
1. Ashton Kutcher & Mila Kunis
They — the real-life sweethearts who met on set — notably penned support letters
claiming Danny’s character and kindness. While their move seemed tender, many fans viewed it as a controversial stand in the face of harrowing rape convictions. It stirred emotional backlash and fierce debates on loyalty vs. moral responsibility.
2. Laura Prepon
Her response was deafening in its silence. With two kids and a private life, she’s maintained radio silence—leading some to speculate she’s distancing herself quietly, unwilling to be dragged into the scandal’s fallout.
3. Topher Grace, Wilmer Valderrama & the rest
Most of the remaining cast stayed off social media and public comment boards. Their silence speaks volumes—neither offering support nor condemnation—prompting fans to wonder: is it neutrality, fear, or simply a desire to avoid further controversy?
4. Bijou Phillips (Danny’s wife)
Not an official cast member, but her presence in court—tears, visible grief, tearful heartbreak—added yet another humanizing, tragic layer to the saga. It forced fans to confront the painful real-world consequences behind the headlines.
