“That ‘90s Show” is the equivalent of a great throwback burger joint with a short menu. The food might have a familiar taste, but it finds an efficient way to overdeliver on the basic expectations. Read full review

The original show was comforting, witty, and a love letter to nostalgia with a young, hungry cast of actors — this new series contains the same loveable features. Now, the real test for the show’s creators is not how to best emulate the formula, but advance it into something more sticky and satisfying. Read full review

Manuel Betancourt

Offering precisely what its title promises and building on the legacy of a Y2K era sitcom that looked back in order to appear fresh and cool, That ’90s Show is nothing new. That’s not so much a knock against it as an accurate assessment of its reason for being. Read full review

For older viewers, its format as well as storylines may well conjure nostalgia. For younger ones, I wonder if its sitcom-y rhythms, the way each episode builds around a conflict resolvable in 22 minutes and makes time for an applause-ready cameo, will suit. Read full review

That ’90s Show is milder than a Milwaukee cheddar, built to be watched while scrolling on your phone, but from the moment Leia takes her father’s place, yelling out “Hello Wisconsin!” in the opening titles, the lure of generations past might just drag you in. Read full review

As an outgrowth of this fad [revivals], the series falls somewhere in the middle of the pack. While there’s a chance we’ll want to hang out in the basement with this gang in the future, we’d rather hang out with Red and Kitty upstairs for now. Read full review

The Daily Beast Kevin Fallon

Jan 20, 2023

The idea of the new series is essentially to recreate every single dynamic of the original, just with new young actors playing new teen characters. It doesn’t work. .... The whole thing reeks of a crass ploy by Netflix to capitalize on nostalgia, while missing entirely what it was about That ’70s Show that made it good or worth revisiting in the first place.

Im surprised as hell. This is a solid show with jokes on par with the original: most of them good, some of the great, some of them bad. I laughed and I don't remember the last time it happened for me watching TV. The essential thing is to remember it's the 90s as the show is not very focusedIm surprised as hell. This is a solid show with jokes on par with the original: most of them good, some of the great, some of them bad. I laughed and I don't remember the last time it happened for me watching TV. The essential thing is to remember it's the 90s as the show is not very focused on the aspect of the situation. Born in 84 and really happy this show exist. I'm aware it will be review bombed because one of the characters is gay, but I really hope for S2.
Also: too bad for Hyde, but f Masterson.… Expand

I came in with the most bitter, jaded view; used to the woke garbage Netflix puts out -- but I was gladly surprised!

Yes the cast is " diverse " and immersion breaking for a show set on the 90s but the kids do a great job and they are all very likeable; the gay asian guy is hillarious, the main chick looks like a hot young eric foreman and kelso's kid has the SAME smile. Kitty and Red deliver solid performances, and the stories follow basically the same formula from the original show before it started bleeding characters. I recommend it!… Expand

Super biased rating here. When my fiancé and I first met, we watched that 70s show on repeat for months, it was our nothing show.

When my fiancé and I first met, we watched that 70s show on repeat for months, it was our nothing show. Now we’re years down the line, with two kids, in a completely different place of our lives, and this show comes out. It’s like one of our favorite shows has evolved with us. Call it bias, and nostalgia, because that’s what it is, but I love this show.… Expand

Como toda serie media "reboot", parte de los clásicos cambios de las series de hoy en día. Diversidad, orientación y ciertos aspectos que apelan a la nostalgia para intentar conectar a la vieja audiencia con la nueva. No está mal, tiene sus momentos y lo mejor obviamente es cuando aparecenComo toda serie media "reboot", parte de los clásicos cambios de las series de hoy en día. Diversidad, orientación y ciertos aspectos que apelan a la nostalgia para intentar conectar a la vieja audiencia con la nueva. No está mal, tiene sus momentos y lo mejor obviamente es cuando aparecen los personajes originales, no hablo de los padres de Eric sino el grupo de amigos de la serie original. Ni sueñes con que aparezca Danny Masterson en la serie después de todas las denuncias que tiene en contra.… Expand

The '70s show was never even close to good. I can't believe it survived more than one season.

I couldn't make it past the 5 minute mark. The laugh track every single second is unbearable. It laughs when there aren't even jokes.

It's a bland generic (and very badly written) teen comedy with a 'XXs show' label slapped on.
