Danny Masterson previously starred in the series, but the “That 70’s Show” alum exited the series last December after multiple women came forward to accuse him of rape.

After Masterson’s exit, it was announced that Dax Shephard would join the series in a recurring guest role in the second half of the third season. He could very well return to the series, but it will depend on whether or not the Fox pilot he starred in–“Bless This Mess”–gets ordered to series.
