Netflix just pulled the plug on 'That '90s Show' after only two seasons! Kurtwood Smith spills the tea on what this means for our favorite characters. #Nostalgia #Cancellation
In a shocking turn of events, Netflix has officially announced the cancellation of 'That '90s Show,' much to the dismay of its loyal fans. The spinoff of the beloved cult classic, 'That '70s Show,' which introduced a new generation of viewers to the hilarious woes of teenage life in a family basement, has now come to an untimely end after just two seasons and 26 episodes. Star Kurtwood Smith broke the news, confirming that Netflix would not be renewing the series.
The cancellation has sparked a flurry of reactions from the cast, with co-stars taking to social media to express their bittersweet feelings about the show's demise. Fans were treated to characters that not only jogged their memories of the original series but also established new, relatable narratives. However, it seems nostalgia wasn’t quite enough to keep this show on the air. Perhaps the spirit of the '90s wasn’t enough to capture the current audience, leaving many wondering, what does good grandparenting look like in a streaming age?
The announcement adds 'That '90s Show' to the list of other unsuccessful spin-offs, including the short-lived 'That '80s Show' from 2002, which also fell flat after its single season. Undoubtedly, this news is a reminder that not all beloved franchises can successfully transition into new eras. As Kurtwood Smith suggested, the series might still have some life left in it, hinting at the possibility of shopping the show elsewhere. After all, any good grandparent knows it's never too late to keep fighting for those high school graduates!
For those still rocking their flannel shirts and reminiscing about the golden days of the late '90s, the uncertainty raises questions about the future of nostalgia-based series. However, perhaps there's a glimmer of hope still out there. In an era where revivals are all the rage, it's good to remember that even if one door closes, another (or several more) might soon open. So, stay tuned, '90s fans—the era of filming on actual VHS tapes might just have been canceled, but the memories will live on!
Speaking of nostalgia, did you know that 'That '70s Show' has been credited with helping to launch the careers of stars like Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher? Their chemistry as Jackie and Kelso was a hallmark of the show, proving that teen romances can often lead to real-life magic! And while 'That '90s Show' might not have made the same impact, it served up a slice of comfort food television, reminding us of our own growing pains amid the cultural shifts of bandwidth and binge-watching. Keep your love for the '90s alive—in streaming, anything's possible!
