Summary
Ash and Fallon are spilling the tea on all the behind-the-scenes drama from the cast of "That '70s Show". Danny Masterson, a hardcore Scientologist, recruited many co-stars into the "church", creating some seriously culty vibes on set. Scandals of underage relationships, substance abuse, and bad behavior from Masterson, Ashton Kutcher, and Wilmer Valderrama cast a dark shadow over this seemingly fun show. Masterson's 2023 rape conviction and 30-year prison sentence finally exposed this pig and what was actually happening behind the scenes of one of America's favorite sitcoms.
