That ‘70s Show was one of the most popular situational comedies of the late ’90s and early ’00s. The period teen series successfully ran for eight seasons, consisting of 200 episodes.

During its run, it became a staple on Fox’s primetime lineup, and received multiple award nominations, including 16 Primetime Emmy nominations.
The coming-of-age slapstick comedy show followed the lives of six teenagers living in the fictional town of Point Place, Wisconsin.
