That 70s Show left Netflix two years ago but is the show now coming back to Netflix again?

Now that we have a new spinoff of the iconic series That 70s Show on the way fans of the 1998 sitcom have been wondering whether the old cult show will be returning to this streaming giant. 

That 70s Show departed from Netflix globally in September 2020 and now after two years after its removal, it looks to have found a new streaming home and it’s not Netflix.

Even though Netflix is the home of That 90s Show coming exclusively to streamers later in 2022. Here’s what we know. 

Exactly two years following its removal, there has been speculation that Peacock has been the streaming home for this show since September 2022. All eight seasons will arrive on the platform.

Netflix has clarified in their recent schedule that there is no space for ‘That 70s show’. This is arguably a baffling decision on behalf of Carsey-Werner, Netflix, and even NBC Universal. It’s likely, however, money likely was the deciding factor at the end of the day.

Stars of the original series reunited on-screen for the 10-episode spinoff series which will be premiering on Netflix. The Netflix series will mimic the style of its predecessor as a multi-camera comedy, aided by the return of original series creators Bonnie Turner and Terry Turner, as well as their daughter Lindsey, to the production as writers and producers.

The show takes place in the summer of 1995 and follows Eric and Donna’s daughter, Leia Forman (played by Callie Haverda), as she discovers the quirks of Point Place, Wis. first-hand on a visit to her grandparents, Kitty (Debra Jo Rupp) and Red (Kurtwood Smith).

The new trailer of the show is out now and it sees Eric’s parents still comfortably situated in their Wisconsin home, which has been appropriately refurnished for the period — and welcomes a new bounty of young hooligans.
