Post THAT 70'S SHOW SERIES FINALE (For Real This Time)
Well, this Thursday not only marks the 7 Minute X3 Preview they'll be showing on FOX, but it'll be on before or after the series finale of THAT 70'S SHOW titled: "The Final Goodbye" that after 8 Years, shows the Formans supposedly move to Florida and Fez ends up with damaged goods in the form of Jackie.. With Ashton Kutcher coming back 1 last time as Kelso, will Topher Grace make an appearance as Eric Forman or will FOX keep him under wraps since he's hitting the Gym and Bulking up for his Role in SPIDERMAN III and they'll attempt to keep his look secretive??? I think Grace should come back for 1 last episode tying everything up the Writers screwed up with this show by having Eric Forman go off to Africa instead of Marrying Donna and ending the show last season.. Thoughts??

I think the writers screwed the show up when they added tons of unnecessary drama and love triangles and cheating on girlfriends/boyfriends and shit like that.

The first 4 seasons were really really really good, maybe the best for any sitcom, but season 5 (if my seasons are correct, Im thinking of the season that began with Foreman going to California to find Donna) and on were not so much.

I have to agree, because I stopped watching after that. I have seen all of ten minutes since then of the show. I would love to buy the first four seasons on DVD. If I ever do, I might give the other seasons a chance, but I'd be happy just with half of That 70s Show's life on DVD.

Will we got a Ronnie's Cine 20 report to gauge the reaction from the general public?

Seriously, you should try and incorporate Ronnie's Cine 20 into all of your posts, no matter the topic.

BTW Who the fuck is Ronnie?

The first two seasons were good. But then it got formuliac and dull and then added the problem of cast members leaving.

RONNIE is the Gentlemen who started the whole Werrehnberg Theatre Corporation around the area I live in and it's quite large, probably up there with Loews.. As for making my RONNIE'S 20 CINE Parking Lot Report part of every post I have, I think that's a little overkill, but I do plan on using it every Friday and Saturday Night to determine weekend box office for a major blockbuster movie and determine whether it'll be a bomb or not..

SEASON 4 Came out on DVD box set on Tuesday.. I have all 4 Seasons of That 70's Show but don't plan on purchasing anymore after SEASON 4.. The whole Eric Forman going off to Africa is truly baffling in what the Writers were thinking.. However, I would like to see Topher Grace come back 1 time in the Final Episode to win Donna back from that Peter Frampton lookalike they came up with to fill in the blanks when Grace left..

BUMP for tonight's FINAL Episode of a show that should've ended probably when Topher Grace left the show and that show is THAT 70'S SHOW.. Last Thursday, I was sort of Duped with how FOX marketed the retrospective titled THE FINAL GOODBYE thinking the episode was then, but it's actually tonight.. I read on Myspace.com where they assemble the original cast again and do away with the new cast from Season 8, meaning the Peter Frampton lookalike Donna was seeing in favor of FOX doing the right thing and bringing back Grace as Eric Forman, the heart and soul of the show, to put closure on his relationship with Donna.. I've read it's a tearjerker and quite a sendoff with one last sit in the 360 Circle.. :shades:

Well, I finished watching THAT 70'S FINALE and I'd have to give it a grade of a "B" at this point.. I'm kind of surprised that FOX didn't have Topher Grace on a whole episode and instead, he showed up in the last 5 minutes of the show by saying "Hello" to Donna who was sitting on the Vista Cruiser, on New Years Eve 79 and really, it was the best part of the show.. Grace wore a coat, so you couldn't tell how big he was from any Gym workout for SPIDERMAN III.. Kelso(Ashton Kucther) came back and was goofy as ever and I dug the storyline with Fez's friend visiting from his home country THAT YOU STILL NEVER KNEW WHERE HE CAME FROM after it was mentioned you'd find out, and smoking that really strong herb that made Hyde freak out causing him to swear off drugs and "The Circle".. Later, he's thwarted back in by an intervention that was pretty funny.. :tongue: Overall, the 3 major complaints I had with this Finale were: 1) Lack of Topher Grace.. 2). Jackie and Fez getting together which makes her look like "Damaged Good's" after being with Kelso and Hyde throughout the 8 year run and finally, 3). No interaction between Eric Forman and his parent's when he came home.. Instead, it was from the touching speech he gave Donna in the driveway, then down to the basement in the circle to get high, then the mother yells down to them that it's almost midnight, so they run upstairs and you hear the countdown to 1980 with 10 seconds left and the final shot of the basement where they all hung out for 8 years, then it shows the license plate at the end of the show that read "THAT 70' SHOW and the tag reads 1980.. It was good, but could've been better I suppose, but of course, this show will live on in Syndication heaven..
