Post by d_b »

It sucks.

Let me elaborate, it really sucks.

One cliche after another....I want to puke.

Seriously.... :confused:


....what were they thinking? That 70's show was up there with the Simpsons on my list. I'd go as far as saying it's tied with the simpsons. Why'd they have to go and do it on the 80's. The 80's sucked to begin with!

Well I have watched about 5 minutes of it so far and don't think I will make it to the end. Pretty damn lame I would say.

I WAS looking forward to it...

...but it runs opposite from "Enterprise", so my g/f watched it and reported that it sucked so hard it bent light. We're both Gen Xers and really looked forward to it, but she and another friend BOTH said that the actors sucked, it was unfunny AND had the worst laugh track in television history.

The g/f TRIED to watch it again last night, but decided after 10 minutes that prying her toenails off with a bottle opener would be more enjoyable.

"Enterprise" OTOH has been pretty good the last couple of weeks. Considering that the first 2-3 seasons of Trek shows are usually on-the-job training, it's shaping up OK.

Ha HA :)

Don't forget crappin' yer drawers :p

Back to the show, I give it 4 weeks then it's axed. If it goes further than that then this society is in trouble. I love "That 70's Show". Having spent my teen years in the 70's I can really relate to what going on.

I think the 80s aren't far enough away yet. Too bad because I still love that music!

Scary thought hit me when That 70's show debuted. I was as old as my parents were when their childhood nostalgia show, Happy Days, was on. *shudders* Sorry, the clothes sucked then, and they still suck today. Burn your bell bottoms and sacrifice a goat to purge yourself of ever having worn them...

That '70's show is GREAT, but even with the simpsons it is not. maybe 1/2 step behind :)
