Wild. I remember That 70's Show as a kid, loved it. Gonna be weird watching an older Aston do his dumb Kelso routine.

 

[SJRB]

Holy crap, that's huge.

Please be good.

They better watch robocop and bring it up lol

 

[DaleinCalgary]

That's awesome. I wonder if Red is still around

 

[adamsapple]

Oh wow Kusher is also back, I thought he retired from acting.

Hyde died of an opioid OD.

 

[TGO]

So it's gonna be a continuation? No new cast
Just them older in the 90's?
I might actually be interested

I believe it ultimately focuses on Eric and Donna's daughter and her circle of friends, if I am not mistaken.

 

[AJUMP23]

This show never interested me, but if you like I hope they make more for you to enjoy.

 

[TheMan]

Masterson...was not invited

 

[bitbydeath]

Hyde died of an opioid OD.

You’re thinking of Laurie, Eric’s sister.

Hyde is still alive.

 

[ManaByte]

Hyde is still alive.

He won't be in the show.

I'm listening.

But if they install current year revisionist BS into the 90s, I'm gonna el oh el.

Either the daughter or Fez will probably be gay. It's Netflix after all.

 

[DeceptiveAlarm]

I loved the 79s show but I was born in 83 and feel like this show is going to just make me sad when they mangle it.

 

[teezzy]

Omg a super Nintendo!!!

Woaaah gruuunggge music

Tupac n biggie

Is that a troll doll?!!

Hey seinfeld!!!

[TTOOLL]

I really liked the original but this will probably be shit.

 

[BadBurger]

I really liked the original but this will probably be shit.

Gregg Mettler will be showrunner, who was a writer & producer on That 70's Show (among others, like 3rd Rock - which I never watched but understand people like it). So fingers crossed.

 

[Soodanim]

As always: hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

But it's 2022 and Netflix....

 

[Dirk Benedict]

What's he doing with the Joker's suit?

 

[gizmopub999]

This could be really good or really bad

 

[Bridges]

Are they gonna include a laugh track again?

 

[Melfice7]

 

[teezzy]

This could be really good or really bad

The new cast has to be likeable, nearly on par with the OG gang...

70s show is pretty damn timeless tbh

I'd be surprised if they catch that lightning twice

 

[AV]

It'll be shit, but I'll probably still watch a couple anyway. I grew up on it and got my girlfriend into it big time over lockdown.

 

[Alter_Fridge]

"Kurtwood Smith will reprise role as Red"

Clarence Boddicker baby

 

[Ristifer]

Kinda excited for this. I loved the original.

 

[RoadHazard]

Love the original, grew up with it and rewatched all of it a year or two ago. Still holds up. I doubt this will be as good, but will definitely tune in. Should theoretically hit the right nostalgia notes for me, being born in '85 (in Europe rather than America though), but we'll see.

That's awesome. I wonder if Red is still around

The show is about Eric and Donna's daughter Leia visiting Red and Kitty in Point Place during summer break, so yes.

So it's gonna be a continuation? No new cast
Just them older in the 90's?
I might actually be interested

No, they will probably just show up here and there, they won't be the main characters.

 

[RoadHazard]

Kitty looks exactly the same, Red has aged gracefully.

 

[kittoo]

He won't be in the show.

Holy shit this escalated. Last I was aware of he had allegations during metoo and was fired from The Ranch. But wasn't aware he is facing rest of his life in prison. Damn.

 

[Kev Kev]

omg i fuckin love her. she is so funny, i hope she gets lots of scenes.

 

[RoboFu]

So the .. I failed Hollywood project.

.. some did okay

 

[HAYA8U5A]

The new cast seem like horrible Disney/Nickelodeon rejects and I'm getting 2020's vibes not 90's vibes

 

[Smiggs]

The new cast does seem... well, let's just call it 'uninspired'. But seeing the old crew together really pulls on the old heart strings, so I'll definitely give it a shot.

 

[Kenpachii]

The new cast seem like horrible Disney/Nickelodeon rejects and I'm getting 2020's vibes not 90's vibes

Should have ditched the kids, and just focus around the old cast again.

New kids have no charisma and just waters it down.

 

[PuppetMaster]

I get zero 90s feels from that trailer. They did not even try adding 90s music.

 

[SJRB]

The new cast seem like horrible Disney/Nickelodeon rejects and I'm getting 2020's vibes not 90's vibes

Not only is the humor terrible, that group of friends is so "checklist diverse" that it lacks any chemistry.

Another dud for Netflix, gg.

 

[nocsi]

Every nostalgic memory of yours, Netflix will molest it and turn it into some woke fever dream pile of shit

 

[thismeinteil]

Definitely. They have them with kids, maybe one or two each, but that shouldn't have been the focus.

Also calling it, the daughter's gay. Cause you can't have a modern show or movie with two close female friends who love each other platonically. Even if it starts out that way, the people have to fanfic it and the studio always bows to the pressure.

Holy shit this escalated. Last I was aware of he had allegations during metoo and was fired from The Ranch. But wasn't aware he is facing rest of his life in prison. Damn.

He could always film his scenes from jail. Just a thought.

 

[Aesius]

Shit writing, shit acting, weird looking cast, shit costumes, shit lighting, too colorful.

 

[IDKFA]

Personally, I think it looks gash.

I didn't even crack a smile at the "comedy" on show in the trailer. Awful.

 

[NeverYouMind]

As a casual fan of the original, I will give this project two episodes to make an informed decision about it. Context can be important for comedy and there is none in the trailer.
