Should have excepted Kramer's movie script.

so i guess u just can't be mean anymore on set anymore. lol

he has directed some of my all time favorite Always Sunny Episodes, namely The Gang Gives Frank an Intervention and The Gang Solves the North Korea Situation

Being fired based on allegations? Absolutely ridiculous

I would hope they actually found something simply because him getting fired based on claims alone is ridiculous

Murray didn't get sacked unless I missed something new. Didn't the production take a pause?

The actor also told CNBC he hopes to work out his differences with the woman and restart production of "Being Mortal."

as of right now they are shooting around him and in some scenes using another actor

REPORTEDLY

one of the things Murray did on set was when he was filming with a woman in a tight shirt with some cleavage, he reportedly his hands over her cleavage (not sure if he touched them or not) and went HONK HONK. This is not the first time Murray was accused of either inappropriate or child like behaviour on the set in the last few years

Hollywood is going to run out of talent at the pace this is going. Lol.

YA the article I posted and in others he talks about getting or trying to get cheap laughs on set with jokes like that and is realizing what was ok for a cheap laugh 30-40 years ago is not always the same anymore...

That's not what the article said.

“Recently, we were made aware of allegations of inappropriate conduct by Fred Savage, and as is policy, an investigation was launched,” producers 20th Television said in a statement. “Upon its completion, the decision was made to terminate his employment as an executive producer and director of The Wonder Years.”

This is not proof that there is anything to the allegations though right?

They probably don’t fire producer and director of the series without concrete and irrefutable proof. And they don’t have to share it.

That's how Al Franken got kicked out of the Senate, I believe.
