That ’90s Show’s Nostalgic Setting Avoided A Fatal Sitcom Revival Mistake

While That ‘90s Show could have fallen into a common sitcom revival trap, Netflix’s That ‘70s Show spinoff managed to avoid this particular pitfall. That ‘90s Show largely recaptured the atmosphere and tone of its predecessor That ‘70s Show. The hang-out sitcom vibe remained in place and That ‘90s Show replied on the same broad character comedy as its predecessor, effectively aping That ‘70s Show’s style. Admittedly, not everything about That ‘90s Show season 1 worked, and there is no denying that the young cast couldn’t immediately recapture the chemistry of That ‘70s Show’s legendary lineup.
