Some sitcoms make a lasting home in the hearts of viewers, and “That ’70s Show” is absolutely one of them. Many fans watched the show at a young age and have fond memories of evenings filled with the jokes and laughter that took place in Eric Forman’s (Topher Grace) basement. In a Reddit thread, a community fond of “That ’70s Show” bonded over why it is they love it so much. As it turns out, it’s a great comfort show.
u/Pece17 brought up the warm and fuzzy feelings by writing, “There’s something about this show that made me feel so cozy inside – I want to live in Point Place too!” To which plenty of users quickly agreed. The show appears to bring out a sense of nostalgia, especially for those that watched it during their school years. u/Nak_Tripper pointed out that it brings them back to a different time in their lives. “I love it because it reminds me of when I was in high school with all my friends. Hanging out and doing nothing and having fun doing it….”
The show mainly follows high-school-aged teens dealing with typical high-school events and issues. Being set in a small Wisconsin town with not much to do makes the show even more relatable for bored teens who might be watching. Even now, “That ’70s Show” continues to gather new fans, as one Twitter user wrote, “started watching “that 70s show,” & i think i love it already.” However, there seems to be a deeper reasoning as to why so many fans relate to the show so heavily.
