I never watched it, first run. I mean I was a teen in the 70's, figured they couldn't possibly show me anything. But, recently, it comes on late-night on FOX here in NYC. I don't know all the names yet, but, Fez is hillarious, the father and son relationship is typical, hostile, funny and sad. The dummy/Kelso? reminds me of a 'Zephead' I used to know, the redhaired 'Donna?' reminds me of girls I used to know and Zeppeling fan to boot.

It's funny, sorry, I didn't catch it originally. BTW, I seem to remember the one playing the 'wimpy' kids mother from a show called 'Hi, Honey I'm Home' some years back? She always plays the clueless ditz mother, who you have th sneaking suspicion really knows everything that is going on and just playing dumb. The 70's were OK, wish I could go back.

I never watched this show until the writers strike. Now i'm hooked.
While I lived through the 70's as a young child, this show isn't '70's enough for me! It was a LOT more ugly. Plus many of the gunnysac dresses Jackie wears were '80s not 70's. (formerly gunnysacks now Jessica McClintoc brand) I think I had a few of them myself in high school

it's still very very funny
