Fred Savage was fired from "The Wonder Years" reboot after allegations of "inappropriate conduct," CBS Los Angeles reports.
"Recently, we were made aware of allegations of inappropriate conduct by Fred Savage, and as is policy an investigation was launched," said a spokesman for 20th Television. "Upon its completion, the decision was made to terminate his employment as an executive producer and director of The Wonder Years."
Savage, who starred as the main character, Kevin Arnold, in the original 1988 series, shifted to behind the camera for the reboot. The new series is about a Black middle-class family from Alabama set in the 1960s. Savage directed eight episodes of the first season.
On April 15, 1874 – 150 years ago – the first Impressionist exhibition opened on Rue du Capucines in Paris, featuring works by 30 artists, including Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Hosted by the "Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors, and Engravers, etc.," it was founded in response to the Paris Salon, the annual, government-sponsored exhibition that would frequently reject the works of the rising artists.
Alec Baldwin had "no control" over his emotions on the set of a film where the cinematographer was shot dead, according to the prosecutor who has charged him with manslaughter. The Hollywood star was holding a Colt .45 during the preparation for a scene in the budget Western "Rust" when the gun went off, killing Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.
