For those of you who have been enjoying ‘That 90s Show‘ on Netflix, there is good news. It has managed to sneak past the mighty cancellation algorithm, and has landed a 2nd Season on the streaming service!
Picking up two decades after ‘That ’70s Show’, it’s 1995 and Leia Forman is desperate for some adventure in her life or at least a best friend who isn’t her dad. When she arrives in Point Place to visit her grandparents, Red and Kitty, Leia finds what she’s looking for right next door when she meets the dynamic and rebellious Gwen. With the help of Gwen’s friends, including her lovable brother Nate, his smart, laser-focused girlfriend Nikki, the sarcastic and insightful Ozzie, and the charming Jay, Leia realizes adventure could happen there just like it did for her parents all those years ago.
Excited to reinvent herself, she convinces her parents to let her stay for the summer. With a basement full of teens again, Kitty is happy the Forman house is now a home for a new generation and Red is, well… Red.
“All of us at That ’90s Show were beyond excited by the warm, enthusiastic response to our first season,” commented series co-creator and showrunner Gregg Mettler. “We can’t wait to return to Point Place for another summer of laughs and surprises. Hello 1996!”
