It's important to note that product and set design is one of the most difficult jobs within the entertainment industry. Sometimes shows like That '70s Show, which churn out many episodes, must be produced with budget and time constraints, so certain details fall through the cracks. For That '70s Show, such misses didn't take away from the series — if anything, they added another amusing factor in realizing how much has changed since the 1970s. One of the most notable inaccuracies took place in the show's opening credits set in the Vista Cruiser: while the cast sang in the car, they were shown to be passing modern cars from the '00s on the road.

Food was another segment of the series that often didn't add up when it came to the 1970s. Food in the kitchen would often contain modern-day labels, such as Skippy peanut butter jars. Beer and soda cans from that specific decade used ring pull tabs, but those were never shown in the series. Krispy Kreme donuts also made its way into the series on multiple occasions, but the chain didn't reach Wisconsin until the early '00s.

Pop culture fanatics probably noticed a few inaccuracies when it came to Eric and some of his possessions. The sheets on his bed were Spider-Man themed, but the design was taken from the mid-'90s. A green lightsaber from Star Wars could also be seen in his bedroom, but that color wasn't produced until Return of the Jedi in 1983. Also in the '80s, the Marriott's Great America in their area changed its name to "Six Flags," but the characters refer to the park as "Six Flags" throughout the series. That '70s Show had a hard enough time cramming eight seasons into a four-year span, and although some of these inaccuracies were hard to miss, it's okay to give them a pass.
