4 stars out of 4 -- "[A] spoof on the values of flares-era suburban teens....It boasts a superb holding schtick from Topher Grace, who shifts from bewilderment to glee with comic virtuosity."
Product Description:
Fondly commemorating and gently poking fun at the trends, fashions, and attitudes that made the decade of the 1970s so distinct, THAT 70S SHOW chronicles the rites of passage of a group of teens growing up in the Wisconsin suburbs. Eric Forman (Topher Grace, OCEAN'S TWELVE, WIN A DATE WITH TAD HAMILTON) lives with his parents, his no-nonsense dad, Red, and his somewhat loopy mother, Kitty, and hangs out with his sometimes girlfriend, Donna, cheerleader Jackie, hunky Kelso, conspiracy theorist Hyde, and the clueless exchange student Fez. The show revolves around the ever-shifting social dynamics of the teens and their families, and despite the silliness of the sitcom situations, the show touches on serious issues (absent fathers, marital problems), and at times creates a surprising poignancy. In the fourth season of the popular show, Donna and Eric deal with their recent breakup, get depressed, battle for custody of their friends, start dating other people, and occasionally slip back into some of their old habits.
