All the "That '70s Show" OGs Who Pop Up in "That '90s Show"

Jan 19 2023 - 5:15pm

Over 15 years after "That '70s Show" concluded, we're back in Point Place, WI, with a new batch of wild teenagers for Netflix's spinoff series, "That '90s Show."

The streamer's new iteration of the classic sitcom [1] introduces a bunch of fresh faces — Ashley Aufderheide (Gwen), Mace Coronel (Jay), Maxwell Acee Donovan (Nate), Reyn Doi as (Ozzie), and Sam Morelos (Nikki) — as Leia Forman (Callie Haverda), daughter of "That '70s Show" originals Eric (Topher Grace [2]) and Donna (Laura Prepon), returns to her parents' old stomping grounds for her own mischievous adventures in the summer of 1995. But in the spirit of nostalgia, the series, of course, features a lot of callbacks to the original show [3] — starting with the OG cast.

"That '70s Show" OGs Debra Jo Rupp (Kitty) and Kurtwood Smith (Red) help anchor the Netflix series, but they're also joined by old castmates like Grace, Prepon, Mila Kunis [4] (Jackie), Ashton Kutcher [5] (Kelso), and Wilmer Valderrama [6] (Fez). Danny Masterson, who played Steven Hyde in "That '70s Show," does not reprise his role as he was recently on trial after being charged in 2020 with forcibly raping three women in separate incidents between 2001 and 2003, per Variety [7].

"That '90s Show" definitely takes a trip down memory lane, so scroll ahead to see all the other familiar faces and cameos that pop up in the series.

Topher Grace as Eric Forman

Grace reprises his role as Kitty and Red's son, Eric, and drops his daughter, Leia (Haverda), off at their house in the series premiere so she can spend the Fourth of July weekend with her grandparents. However, one weekend turns into the entire summer when Leia finds her own group of Wisconsin friends.

Laura Prepon as Donna Pinciotti

Prepon returns as Donna in the series premiere when she and her now-husband, Eric, drop Leia off at her grandparents' house for the summer. She pops up again in episode five when she and Leia have a heart-to-heart and again in the season finale when she returns to Wisconsin to pick up her daughter at the end of the summer.

Ashton Kutcher as Michael Kelso

Kutcher's Kelso makes his grand return at the end of the season premiere when, during a visit to the Forman household, it's revealed that he's Jay's father. Kelso then pops back up at the house with his on-and-off-again high school girlfriend-turned-wife, Jackie (Kunis) — who's also Kutcher's wife in real life [9].

Kunis reprises her iconic role in the "That '90s Show" season premiere when she and her husband, Kelso, reveal they're getting "remarried."

Don Stark as Bob Pinciotti

Stark, who starred as Kitty and Red's next-door neighbor and Donna's father in "That '70s Show," reprises his role as Bob Pinciotti in episode six of "That '90s Show" when he shows up to celebrate his granddaughter Leia's birthday.
