Fez ' name is derived from Foreign Exchange Student (exchange student). His real name is not exactly known. In an episode called his name but at the same time you don't hear the school bell sounds so that its name is called, Valderrama when actually the names of the other actors on. now he reveals in another episode that the first five k's are silent. From which country he is exactly coming in the series deliberately not made clear, as running-gag always happens something like he is trying to tell.
 * The somewhat frumpy, but quick-witted Eric Forman
 * Erics redhead (and later blond) girl next door and feminist girlfriend Donna Pinciotti
 * The rocker who sees a conspiracy in everywhere, Steven Hyde
 * The not so smart women Devourer Michael Kelso
 * The pampered and dictatorial Jackie Burkhart
 * Speaking with an accent and the candy addict foreigner Fez

Eric's parents also play a large role in the series. His father, Red Forman is a war veteran who can't wait until his son out the door goes, because Eric in his eyes a"Dumbass" is, on the other hand, Erics slutty sister Laurie Forman in her father's eyes do nothing wrong. Also he often throws with a colourful variant of someone under his bottom kick ("You morons just hung a vacancy sign on your asses and my Foundation on-site looking for a room!" -Afl. 8.1, Bohemian Rhapsody). His mother, Kitty Formanis housewife and sister in the hospital. In addition she comes halfway through the series in transition what makes even more hilarious situations. Furthermore, the neighbors of Eric (these are the parents of Donna), Bob and Midge Pinciotti, also two important persons in the series. Midge leaves the series after season 3 and is to see in a few episodes later in season 6 and 7. ==Division Of Roles[ Edit] == ==Time Course[ Edit] == The time course in the series is messy. The first episode takes place on 17 may 1976 and the last takes place on new year's Eve 1979, the last episode ended with the countdown to 1 January 1980. Michael Kelso Eric Forman and will return to this with their old friends to celebrate group. In the eight years that the series runs, there are only four in the series itself gone past. In the first few seasons is sometimes called a date, but this is also not consistently. For example, In the Thanksgivingaflevering (Afl. 1.9 Thanksgiving) in the first season the 24 november 1976 (third Thursday of november in 1976 is the 25th, but the beginning of the episode is a day for Thanksgiving). In a later episode (episodes 1.10 Sunday Bloody Sunday) says Kelso: "Jackie! Don't go home! Steve Martin is hosting Saturday Night Live. " The Saturday Night Live in 1976 that was hosted bySteve Martin on 23 October. Although this again with the production dates (the latter episode was originally scheduled for Thanksgiving are broadcast on 25 October 1998, which, in turn, with the note of Kelso). This kind of seasonal episodes are more common, so is there in the four years that pass 5 times Christmas celebrated in the series, which of course is not possible. And the strangest error it made in the last season, in this season are 10 episode between the Christmas-(Afl. 8.11 Good old Fashioned Lover Boy) and new year's episode ( That ' 70s Finaleepisodes 8.22). At the beginning of each episode is right below (on the license plate) to see in what year the episode plays out. ===Season 8 and the last episode<span class="mw-editsection" len="359" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] === <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">Season 8 brings quite a few changes. Eric left for Africa and Kelso has a job in a strip club and moves to Chicago to for his daughter and the mother of his daughter to take care. Also, Hyde and Jackie apart and Hyde is married with a stripper from Las Vegas, which also runs halfway through the season.

Leo Chingkwake (Tommy Chong) returns after a while from the series to have been. Both are adopted as an aid in the record store of Hyde. Later in the season gets Randy a relationship with Donna. Leo is the old boss of Hyde when they were both still in the Fotohut worked (season 4, in which they still make a joke about that Hyde the "boss" of Leo is). After a while ' out of town ' to have been (thus we learn of Leo's cousin Eli in afl. 5.17-The Battle for Evermore) he comes back and goes now for Hyde working in the record store Grooves. In the last episode, Hyde's father sells the chain but gives the last shop to Hyde.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">In the last episode are Red and Kitty getting ready to making to sell the House and leave for Florida. Hyde stops blowen, Fez is packing his stuff to get back home to go (where this is, is still not clear) and Donna are about to leave and also make a study. Eventually sell the House not the Formans, Hyde gets back in the circle and Fez decides to stay and build a relationship with Jackie. In addition, Kelso and Eric back to new year to celebrate with their friends. However, a portion left open. Donna and Eric cushion as he comes back. There is no further entered or Donna remains in Eric leaves or now anyway. Probably going to Kelso get back to Chicago, but this is also not made clear. Bob is the only one which is certain is that in the end he leaves, and that's to Florida to open a fishing tackle shop. ==The Circle<span class="mw-editsection" len="335" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The Circle is an event that occurs in every episode of the series. The main characters sit in a circle and the camera rotates, seen from the Center, 360 degrees. This is mainly illustrated as the teens use marijuana, although this is never directly visible or is cited. If they have only vague names like "the stash" or "stuff". The smoke is often explained by the fact that the teenagers with incense are working on. Usually this is done in the basement of Eric. Though Red calls (father of Eric) several times by the series that he wants to have nothing of teenagers drug use. In the seventh season episode "Till the next goodbye" word, however, found the stuff and get the teeners a sermon by Red and Kitty. Clearly the meaning hereby calls Kitty "The basement by closes and than comes the lighters and the drugs" and "it's like Amsterdam down there". ==Guest Appearances<span class="mw-editsection" len="338" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">Although sometimes things come in the show that are not from the 1970s (such as the new kind of cans, so no tab that you subtract of the can, or small packs of juice, both still not ' invented ' in the 1970s), the show is a clear reflection of the 1970s. Especially fans of music from the 1970s are well catered for. There are also many artists in the show as guest star, including Ted Nugent, Paul Anka, The Hardy's, Alice Cooper, Roger Daltrey (lead singer of The Who) and KISS. Also current famous actors and actresses playing regularly a supporting role including Bruce Willis (Die Hard), Jessica Simpson (The Dukes of Hazzard 2005), Seth Green(Austin Powers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Luke Wilson (the Royal Tenenbaums), Shannon Elizabeth (American Pie), Brooke Shields (The Blue Lagoon), Dan Castellaneta (The Simpsons), Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson (The Scorpion King, Doom), Rachel Bilson (Jumper), Lindsay Lohan (Freaky Friday), Alyson Hannigan (How I Met Your Mother, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, American Pie) and Eliza Dushku (Buffy the Vampire Slayer). ==Happy Days<span class="mw-editsection" len="335" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] == <p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">The show has had a few other working titles such as Feelin' Alright, Reeling in the Years and The Kids Are Alright (episode 6.1 has still been given this name). But none of these names were a possibility because of rights already were connected to the name. One of these rights was linked to The Who, which had a song called "The Kids are Alright". For this reason is called the first episode of season 6 in such a way, the name of every episode of this season is the title of a song by The Who (season 5 has the same with Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones with season 7 and season 8 with Queen. With the exception of the last episode, That ' 70s Finale). In the end chosen for That ' 70s Show, because that many people already so was named (in the context: "I like that show about the ' 70s" or "I would like to see that ' 70s show").

Both are set for 20 years that they are made. Both are about a group of young people in a small town in Wisconsin. In both shows take the parents of the lead actor (Eric and Richie) the "tough street boy" (Hyde and Fonzie) in their home. Happy Days is also frequently cited in That ' 70s Show.

<p style="margin-top:0.5em;line-height:22.3999996185303px;color:rgb(37,37,37);font-family:sans-serif;">In episode "Crazy Little Thing Called Love (8-17, april 27, 2006) Tom Bosley plays a supporting role as a therapist. Tom Bosley played Howard Cunningham (the father of Richie) in Happy Days. Also "the mother of Richie" Marion Ross regularly has a supporting role as the annoying mother of Red. ==Episodes<span class="mw-editsection" len="337" style="-webkit-user-select:none;font-size:small;margin-left:1em;line-height:1em;display:inline-block;white-space:nowrap;unicode-bidi:-webkit-isolate;font-family:sans-serif;"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">[ Edit<span class="mw-editsection-bracket" len="1" style="color:rgb(85,85,85);">] ==
