It’s official: That ’70s Show couple Red and Kitty are returning to the iconic basement where it all began.
Today, Netflix dropped the first official teaser for its brand-new comedy series, That ’90s Show. The highly anticipated reboot will feature Kurtwood Smith and Debra Jo Rupp reprising their roles as Red and Kitty Forman, respectively.
The trailer introduces the modern-day story line, which focuses on Red and Kitty as they host their teenage granddaughter, Leia (Callie Haverda), for the summer. Of course, she and her friends turn the basement into their formal hang out spot. And no, Red hasn’t changed one bit.
“Lights on, shirts on and no dancing,” he tells Leia.
Aside from Smith and Rupp, That ’90s Show features mainly new cast members: Haverda, Ashley Aufderheide (Gwen), Maxwell Acee Donovan (Nate), Sam Morelos (Nikki), Reyn Doi (Ozzie) and Mace Coronel (Jay). However, several familiar faces are expected to make guest appearances, including Topher Grace (Eric), Laura Prepon (Donna), Wilmer Valderrama (Fez), Ashton Kutcher (Michael) and Mila Kunis (Jackie).
Showrunner Gregg Mettler confirmed that fans of the original sitcom will be pleased with That ’90s Show. “I wanted to have the same feeling as That ’70s Show did,” he told Variety. “The show had a very special tone. It was playful, it had a heart, it was sarcastic, it was filled with love within this family, within the friend group. I missed being in the basement with those kids.”
That ’90s Show will hit Netflix on January 19, 2023. *Sets calendar reminder*
