‘That ‘90s Show’ Creators Make Exciting Statements

Lindsey Turner, the show's co-creator and executive producer, remarked, 'We owe the fans, old and new, for taking the trip with us in the first season. And we can't wait to be there with them in the second season.'

Also adding to the liveliness is Gregg Mettler, co-creator, executive producer and showrunner, who said, 'All of us at That '90s Show were beyond excited by the warm enthusiasm response to our first season. We can't wait to return to Point Place for another summer of laughs and surprises. Hello, 1996!'

‘That ‘90s Show’ Premise

Set in 1995, That ‘90s Show sees Leia Forman (Callie Haverda) having friendship blues when she goes to visit her paternal grandparents, Red Forman (Kurtwood Smith) and Kitty Forman (Debra Jo Rupp), over summer break. 

Worried that her only buddie is her dad Eric Forman (Topher Grace), Leia strives to strike new friendships at Point Place. Luckily, she mingles quite well with her next-door neighbour, the rebellious Gwen (Ashley Aufderheide) and her adorable brother Nate (Maxwell Donovan). 

The friendship crew is rounded up by Nate’s intelligent girlfriend Nikki (Sam Morelos), the cute Jay (Mace Coronel) and the sarcastic Ozzie (Ryen Doi). As expected, the show sees a déjà vu as Leia and her new newfound friends hang out at her grandparents' basement, as her parents did almost two decades ago. 

Kitty is enthused that her house is full again, with a new generation of teens. And Red is well... same old Red.
