At one point, they were even engaged but Eric broke it off. Although it was a shock for fans to see Eric leave right before the show ended, Grace had a practical reason for making his exit early. As Eric gets older, he realizes he wants more out of life than just sitting around with his friends. The character was introduced primarily as a replacement for Eric Forman and Michael Kelso, as the actors who played them, Topher Grace and Ashton Kutcher, chose to leave the series after the seventh season.
The writers originally hired Josh Meyers to play Eric. In one episode, when Fez was asked his real name, the sound of the school bell ringing blocked his response out completely. Kelso remains loyal to Jackie after that and stays with her throughout season four, and they enjoy a happier, more loving relationship.
After graduating college, writing began as a part-time hobby for Kara but it quickly turned into a career. She loves binging a new series and watching movies ranging from Hollywood blockbusters to hidden indie gems. She also has a soft spot for horror ever since she started watching it at too young of an age. When Kara's not busy writing, you can find her doing yoga or hanging out with Gritty. By Kara Hedash Published Mar 20, No matter what night it aired — and it moved constantly — viewers found it and followed it.
Despite declining viewership, the show didn't experience a significant drop in critical reception until the final season. Though they did well overall, Rotten Tomatoes audience scores for the first seven seasons gradually declined as the show progressed. Between the show's first and seventh season, audience scores never dropped below 60 percent, the eighth season took a massive dive, dropping all the way to 23 percent. By the end, many fans hadn't just moved on — they actively disliked the final batch of episodes.
Even before That '70s Show was canceled, it had clearly stopped being appointment TV for its audience. By the time That '70s Show concluded its eighth and final season, many character arcs had reached their natural conclusions, leaving less potential for interesting stories should the series have continued. After dating Randy throughout most of the final season, Donna broke off the relationship as the finale drew near and got back together with Eric in the series finale.
Red and Kitty decided not to sell their home. Fez and Jackie had their first real kiss, implying that their new relationship was off to a decent start. Hyde was given the record store by his father, making him the new owner.
Finally, Kelso became a security guard for the Playboy Club in Chicago, an ironic gig for someone who can't seem to keep his hands off of women. Like most long-running sitcoms, That '70s Show tied up basically every significant loose end during its finale.
If it hadn't been canceled and had gone on to a ninth or tenth season, other stories might have been told — but it's also very likely that it would have overstayed its welcome more than it already had. After eight seasons, Fox wanted to give That '70s Show a proper sendoff, and the network honored its long-running hit with some extra room on the schedule: A week before the finale, the network aired a regular half-hour episode alongside a special minute retrospective.
The finale takes place on New Year's Eve, which also happens to be the last day of the '70s. According to executive producer Mark Hudis, ending the series on the final day of the titular decade was no coincidence; as he put it , "We thought we'd just wrap up the '70s while we wrap up the series.
The finale features the returns of Eric and Kelso — and considering that the episode boasts a near-perfect rating on IMDb, it's safe to assume that fans were excited to see these familiar faces again.
