A right-on time capsule of a decade, a warm coming-of-age comedy and the funniest new sitcom on any network this fall. [23 Aug 1998, p.D6]

One of my favorite shows of all time. This show is great, it's funny and interesting to watch and see how the teen lives of Eric, Donna, Hyde, Kelso, Jackie and Fez evolve. The actors are great and the show has 9 seasons! If you're looking for a fun TV show to watch on a lazy day, this is the one.
