Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at an event celebrating the 25th anniversary of "Family Guy" this week, Kunis explained that she and Kutcher felt that theyd done enough to lay the groundwork for their characters futures by appearing in Season 1.

I mean, we did our thing, and they introduced our son in the show and that was, you know, [enough], she said, after answering no when asked if she and Kutcher would be returning.
Alongside her on the red carpet, Kunis' "Family Guy" and "That 70s Show" costar Seth Green said he would be going back for another round of the Netflix series.

Though she didnt divulge more information about their plans, Kunis' comments come seven months after she and Kutcher were forced to apologize for letters they wrote in support of their former "That 70s Show" costar Danny Masterson.

For context, Kutcher, Kunis, and Masterson were shooting "That '70s Show" at the time that women say Masterson drugged and raped them at his Hollywood Hills home. He was found guilty of two counts of rape in May, and he was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison in September.

Around this time, court documents revealed that Kutcher and Kunis were among those to have written letters to the judge asking for leniency ahead of the sentencing, describing Masterson as a role model with exceptional character.
In Kutchers letter , he asked the judge to reconsider the length of Masterson's sentence, arguing that his friend was not an ongoing harm to society. He also wrote that it would be a tertiary injustice for Masterson's daughter to be raised without a present father.
Kunis' letter echoed similar themes as she described the tremendous positive influence that Masterson had had on her and the people around him. She also hailed his dedication to leading a drug-free life a statement which many found bizarre in light of the fact that the women allege Masterson used drugs to rape them .
