Fred Savage’s not so Wonder-ful claims

Rob Lowe and Fred Savage in ‘The Grinder’

News first broke this week via TMZ, that a woman had filed a lawsuit alleging that in 2015, actor and TV director Fred Savage created a hostile environment for her on The Grinder set. The former staffer claims the Wonder Years star “violently struck” her in the arm three times, gave her dirty looks, rolled his eyes, and swore at her.

Fox has since spoken out about the suit, defending the star and insisting that they’d conducted an investigation into the allegations that proved no wrongdoing. “Fox takes all allegations of improper conduct very seriously. We conducted a thorough investigation into these allegations and found no evidence of any wrongdoing on the part of Mr. Savage. We will vigorously defend against these unfounded claims,” the network said in a statement.

In a statement,Savage called the allegations “completely without merit and absolutely untrue.”
