Crank up the 8-track and flash back to a time when platform shoes and puka shells were all the rage in this hilarious retro-sitcom. For Eric, Kelso, Jackie, Hyde, Donna and Fez, a group of high school teens who spend most of their time hanging out in Eric’s basement, life in the ‘70s isn’t always so groovy. But between trying to figure out the meaning of life, avoiding their parents, and dealing with out-of-control hormones, they’ve learned one thing for sure: they’ll always get by with a little help from their friends.
The show lives on hanging out in the basement, quick banter and running gags that build up over seasons. The tone is loose and silly, with a nostalgic seventies look and soundtrack, and now and then a quieter, honest moment between the characters. The mix of teenage chaos and exasperated parents stays warm and light throughout.
Good for you if you like sitcoms about groups of friends and family life that are nostalgic, silly and easy to watch.
