Kelso has trouble talking to Brooke after learning that she's pregnant. The other plots (the library and the Jackie/Hyde fight) are thin but fun.Īn immigration lawyer comes to check on Fez and Laurie's marriage. I also like the reaction from the rest of the cast when they hear of Brooke's pregnancy. Shannon Elizabeth is a strong addition to the cast and the final scene with Kelso is a great moment for Ashton Kutcher. Eric finds out they loan out Playboy magazines at the library.Īfter a couple weak entries to start the season, That 70s Show finally introduces a new story to the fold and it's a good one that catapults the Kelso character forward with the introduction and pregnancy of Brooke and Kelso's impending fatherhood. Jackie is jealous when Hyde says Brooke is hot. Kelso doesn't understand why a girl he had sex with, Brooke, pretends that they didn't. I mean, at least Donna is going to college. They took a plot that was once really interesting (a Hyde/Jackie hookup) and put it in this constant triangle with Kelso that it feels like things never go anywhere. It really highlights how That 70s Show can occasionally give into running a plot into the ground. Already, I feel tired of the stories with Eric & Donna and Hyde/Jackie/Kelso while the only story with real potential - Fez and Laurie - was disrupted by Lisa Robin Kelly leaving the series. That 70s Show is spending the early parts of season six really spinning its wheels. Kitty tries to keep Red from having things that are bad for his heart. Jackie tries to use seductive techniques to make Hyde jealous while Kelso also gets involved. There's also a Grease parody that could have been so much better so it's not a great first episode of the season.Įric worries about staying home while Donna goes to college. For all her offscreen problems, she brought a spark to the show and with her being gone and Christina Moore put in the unenviable position of trying to replace her, this season gets off to a weird start. Lisa Robin Kelly has left for good as she continued her tragic downward spiral that eventually led to her death in 2013. Season 6 of That 70s Show makes a switch as well and although it's a smaller character, it feels even weirder in a more recent sitcom. Season 6 of Bewitched opens famously with Dick Sargent nonchalantly taking over the role of Darrin. Laurie returns from going on her honeymoon without Fez. Jackie tells Hyde she is choosing him, but he has other plans. Red comes home from the hospital and Kitty tries to keep the peace with Eric. Tanya Roberts as Midge Pinciotti (1 episode)īrooke Shields as Pamela Burkhart (6 episodes) Kurtwood Smith as Red Forman (25 episodes)Ĭhristina Moore as Laurie Forman (6 episodes) Laura Prepon as Donna Pinciotti (25 episodes)ĭebra Jo Rupp as Kitty Forman (25 episodes) Mila Kunis as Jackie Burkhart (25 episodes)Īshton Kutcher as Michael Kelso (25 episodes)ĭanny Masterson as Steven Hyde (25 episodes) Topher Grace as Eric Forman (25 episodes) Every episode this season is named after a song by The Who. Although it is on the decline, there are still several episodes that manage to be funny enough to get good scores. However, this is probably the best season yet for Ashton Kutcher's Kelso character as his character's life actually moves forward while so many others seem stuck in a rut. The Eric and Donna stories become almost insufferable by this point. The show has lost Lisa Robin Kelly for good but has to keep the character so they re-cast unsuccessfully. Season six of That 70s Show is definitely a show past its peak.
