I'm pretty excited about this as I'm a huge fan of That 70's Show.

Will watch. Hopefully it's not terrible.

I was hoping this would take place in the early 90s grunge era, which feels more in tone with the original show, but I guess it wouldn't work out if the show ended in 1980 and is about their kid.

Still, look forward to it.

It'd be funny if they made Kelso an early tech investor and accidentally super rich, both ironic and as a nod to Ashton Kutcher.

Show ended on Dec. 31, 1979. Last episode aired May 2006. 15 years ago. I'm guessing they'll pick up in 1995 a) for continuity and b) middle of the decade was right as grunge was beginning to fade but still kicking and if it's a successful show they can follow through on to the boy band/Britney crap that came later in the decade. I could see some pretty funny Fez/Kelso stuff with that.

EDIT:
Well, maybe If I'd read the whole article it would have confirmed my suspicions....

The show will focus on the Forman family, as Eric's daughter Leia is visiting her grandparents in Wisconsin in the summer of 1995

His wife Kitty was hilarious at times as well.

Any of y'all remember the flop that was That 80's show?

Yup.
Watched the pilot episode when it aired.

And that was the extent of my viewing of it.


Went back and watched the pilot on YouTube a year or so ago just for ****s and giggles...I had no idea that was Glenn Howerton....he wasn't "Glenn Howerton" yet at that point.

Oh damn.... now I feel old.

I don't see them capturing the magic of That 70's Show.

Oh... and Red Forman is the best TV dad in history, to me.

He'll always be Clarence Boddicker to me.

When the show first came out, I had a hard time reconciling that too. Kind of like when i saw american psycho before christian bale was cast as batman. But i think he owned the role so well that he'll always be Red.

Agreed. He was also the best character on the show. My dad is basically Red Forman, if you removed his good humor.
