Reboots of old shows are always a treat to watch. Netflix recently released the trailer of the popular sitcom, That ‘90s Show which centers on what happened 15 years after That ‘70s Show. The trailer of the sitcom features a refreshing mix of new faces as well as old-timers from the last show.
Set in 1995, That 90s Show is about Leila Forman, the daughter of Eric Forman and Donna Pinciotto. Leila decides to spend her summer break at her grandparent’s pad in 1995, only to form a tight-knit friends group. The residence in question is an ancient house, located in Point Place, Wisconsin, where her parents spent their teenage years, as shown in That ‘70s Show.
The show is slated to start streaming on January 19, 2023.
Just like the last show, this one also focuses on a kids’ group, albeit with a new group of friends. Expect guest appearances from familiar last season faces such as Topher Grace, Laura Prepon, Wilmer Valderrama, Ashton Kutcher, and Mila Kunis.
Back in 1998, Kutcher averred that if That ‘90s Show ever got made, it would always work. Kutcher’s predictions seem to be coming true, decades later, and we’re really excited to see how things pan out.
Kunis would be reprising her role of Jackie Burkhart, and has been paired with Kutcher on the show. Discussing how it feels to be sharing the screen with her real-life husband, the American actress said, “My husband and I are together in [the new show], which is weird because we shouldn’t have been. You know what, I called B.S. I was like, ‘My character would be with Fez.’ I think that I ended up with Wilmer [Valderrama]’s character. And I was like [to Ashton], ‘Why are you and I together?’ And also, he was married when ”70s’ ended to Shannon Elizabeth’s character, I think.”
The 39-year-old further added, “Now we’re like 20 years — no, 16 years later, whatever it is, and now we’re married with a kid. Anyone who has ever watched or loved ‘That ’70s Show’ will be really happy with it.”
