Parent's Guide to That 90s Show

Set in Point Place, Wisconsin, in the summers of 1995 and 1996, "That '90s Show" is a teen sitcom that serves as a sequel to the popular series "That '70s Show." The narrative centers on Leia Forman, the teenage daughter of original characters Eric Forman and Donna Pinciotti, as she spends her summer vacations with her grandparents, Red and Kitty Forman. Leia quickly befriends a new group of local teenagers, and together they navigate the typical coming-of-age experiences, including first loves, friendships, and rebellious escapades, often involving classic sitcom scenarios in the Formans' iconic basement. The series aims to capture the nostalgic spirit of the 1990s while introducing a new generation of characters.

Additional Context

Best For Ages

TV-14. This recommendation is due to frequent suggestive dialogue, references to sexual activity, underage substance use (alcohol and marijuana), and consistent use of mild to moderate profanity. Parents are strongly cautioned as the themes and content may not be suitable for viewers under the age of 14.

Good to Know

The show's content, including themes of rebellion, substance use, and sexual exploration, reflects its predecessor, "That '70s Show," aligning with a '90s teenage experience. While some content is played for laughs, parents should be aware of the consistent presence of mature themes and discussions. The overall tone is comedic, but the frequency and explicitness of certain topics warrant caution.
