Customer Reviews

My favourite series
Words really can't express my feelings towards this show. Sadly I've watched too much television, and when you do, you tend to really embrace what's actually good out there. That '70s Show is the best I've ever seen, and I've enjoyed shows like Seinfeld, Simpsons, Friends, Frasier and the like. For me, this show tops them all.

Maybe it has to do with revisiting your own past as you sort of revisit the past of the makers of this show too. Following the hilarious stunts of the Wisconsin kids as they stumble through their teens cracks me up every time I watch an episode. Watching Donna and Eric's growing relationship, the stupidity of Kelso, Hyde flirting with his left-wing philosophies and small time would-be criminality ...and so on and so on... really makes the stress go away.

The show is a wonderful mix of good humour, touching on important themes with not too much seriousness and striking the chords of the human soul. *sniff* Gotta spin the disk too stop the tears of joy flowing... ;)

Hilarious!
Incredibly underrated in the UK, this show was shown briefly on Channel 5 before being abandoned. Why it isn't massively popular is beyond me, because it has pretty much everything you could wish for in a teen programme - comical situations, close friendships, love triangles (or squares in some cases!), and hilarious one-liners.

Almost every character is unique and lovable - Eric for his sweet but funny boy-next-door appeal, Hyde for his sexy rebellious fight-the-system rants, Fez for his complete unawareness of American culture, Jackie for her comical controlling of her boyfriend, and Michael for his pure stupidity. And the Forman family, headed by Red and Kitty, is a reassuring throwback to the days when love lasted forever and everyone ate together at the kitchen table.

The only complaint I have about this boxset is the lack of extras/deleted scenes (there are practically no special features). However it's definately still worth buying, especially at this price.

If you're looking for a cross between Friends, Dawson's Creek, and a retro psychedelic dream, this is for you.

Laugh out loud funny!
A friend and i had a regular Friday night thing going, where we'd get in, cook dinner and just sit watching That 70's Show on the telly (I know, i know, sad for a Friday night!) We loved the show and when i saw it on here for this price i thought it wouldn't hurt to buy the first series. I am completely hooked! I really like That 70's Show because the situations it presents are realistic and the humour isn't false. The characters are loveable and real (i especially love Kitty and Donna for the down to earth-ness of their characters) and often it has me screaming with laughter. I agree with a previous reviewer that the lack of extras is disappointing but you definitely get your money's worth of episodes in this 4 disc box set.
