Die wilden Neunziger!

Well today I binge watched the whole first series and I thought it was okay and yes just okay.

Being a big fan of the original series I thought I would give this series a serious go and watch the whole first season before embarking on a review.

A lot of the stories have come from the original series such as the first episode was about a keg which was done in the original series, there are many more points that you will notice this throughout the new show.

Now seeing the original cast in this series was a blessing in disguise because if it wasn't for them this show would dive right down the toilet.

The new cast are okay but the acting feels very much forced and it seems as if they're trying to hard to get laughs, which is a letdown.

It's great to see an old cast member in practically every episode and this helps the show.

When it comes down to it if it wasn't for the original cast this show would bomb. They make it. Maybe they should have made a new series with just the original cast in it, who knows, will I watch another season? Only if the original cast are in it.

Watch this for the original cast, they make it.

First episode done. The original cast really does make the show. The jokes delivered are funny. When they switch to the young cast I thought "this feels really Disney channel humor." Just where everyone is a complete dummy and overacting to a 13. And how can you do two dumb jocks that can barely function?

I hope the characters find their groove and chill out a little. I have so much hope for this show. We need actual story lines too. Not just ridiculous over acting.

One more time- holy the old cast is so good. It has such potential to really come together. Don't cancel this show. It can work.

That '70s Show is one of my all-time favorites. I've seen it so many times that I basically have it memorized. I still watch it to this day. It was super edgy, boundary-pushing, and most importantly, hilarious.

That '90s Show is trying to capture the same formula, but without any sort of edge. The humor is multiple steps down. I laughed a few times per episode. And with only 10 episodes, they rush through a bunch of unearned and unnecessary drama.

It's not all bad and I did find some enjoyment from it. I think they once again did a great job with the casting, especially the lead. I think she could carry the show in the same way Topher Grace did... if it was better. I like most of the characters with my favorite being the dumb one (brella. Rofl).

But the worst part for me was two characters I could not stand. The lesser is the annoying neighbor lady. She seems to be analogous to Bob and Midge, the ones who would interact with Kitty and Red. But that character doesn't hold a candle to the hilarious Pinciotti's.

The character Ozzie has to be one of the worst and most annoying characters I can remember. All he does is give sassy and sarcastic one-liners. Every one of them made me cringe or roll my eyes. EVERY ONE. This is the lowest form of comedy writing.

It's probably just nostalgia, but I may check out a second season and hope that they can do better. Funnier jokes, more edge, and not so Netflixified (meaning general low quality all around). (1 viewing, 1/26/2023)

Very disappointed. It seems that fear dominates hollywood comedy writers rather than the fun bone!

Not edgy at all, not realistic even! These are not kids from the 90s. They think it's the 90s just because they show the mall and blockbusters every once in a while... The gay kid is accepted by all with no conflict, and it was not that way back then. There were real struggles.

These are stereotypes of nowadays (2020s) teenagers with colorful clothes, that's all.

The old actors do a good job, but since it is about the kids rather than getting few laughs from the fans of That's 70s Show, it is very disappointing.

These writers dare not write comedy anymore: shameful display.

Well it wasn't actually bad. But sadly it survived only with the help of the old cast, without them it would of been quite a disappointment.

The new cast of kids was not really that bad, but it was not good either. The main character was bland and unfunny as a bag of stones. The needed character to be politically correct seemed to be from the future not from the '90s. And now we basicly have two Kelsos - one good looking and one that plays football or something. I didn't really get the point of the footballers girlfriend, why is she even there?

But the biggest problem I had with the show, was the really confusing and strange '90s world they made up. In 1995 I was 15 just like these kids are and I can't recognize this version of the time. It's just not right at all.
