Movie Review: Hello Wisconsin!
Summary: 5 Stars
The second year of That '70s Show took an already great show and completely amped it up (even the theme song got a small change). Knowing what worked and what didn't work from a very solid first season, the writers and actors were able to deliver a sophomore year that was superior to Season 1.
The year starts off with a true gem; in "The Garage Sale", Hyde (Danny Masterson) bakes "special brownies" to help out at the Formans' (Topher Grace, Kurtwood Smith, Debra Jo Rupp, and Lisa Robin Kelly) garage sale to raise money, now that father Red is out of a job. Despite Eric's pleas to not do it, he unknowingly gets Eric's Vista Cruiser sold when Red, Kitty, Bob (Don Stark) and Midge (Tanya Wright) sample some of the drug-laced chocolate. What follows is one of the shows most hilarious "circle scenes" with the parents talking nonsense while under the influence of the brownies. And that is just the beginning of the season...
This year, a few story arcs develop. Donna (Laura Prepon) is put through a painful ordeal when her parents' marriage begins to crumble, Kelso (Ashton Kutcher) and Jackie (Mila Kunis) face trying times for their relationship when Kelso begins sleeping with Laurie Forman, Hyde gets a job at the Photo Hut, and we meet Leo (Tommy Chong), a burnt out guy who is the source of so many funny lines. Eric and Donna take some big steps in their relationship, while Red continues his search for a job. Finally, Fez (Wilmer Valderama) continues his search for a girlfriend, and hopes that Jackie will be the one for him.
One of my favorite things about this show is the cutaway bits. Some of the funniest moments this year involved either dream sequences of cutaways to bizarre 70's references, such as when Fez wished that they could be cartoon teenagers, just like in Scooby-Doo. Next thing you know, the rest of the scene is animated! Or after Eric went to see Annie Hall with his mom, he sees himself as Woody Allen and Donna as Diane Keaton.
Season 2 had so many great episodes, I still find it hard to believe that the show's been on for 7 years. One might think that due to all the greatness this show has displayed in the first 2 years, it would have run out of ideas long ago, but it is still going strong. Anyway, some highlights of the year include "The Garage Sale", "Vanstock" "The First Time", "Afterglow", "Eric and Kitty's Night Out", "Halloween", "Hunting", "I Love Cake", "Parents Find Out", "Moon Over Point Place", and "Burning Down the House".
The special features are much improved over season 1 (although, most television shows on DVD aren't too strong in the specials department on the first season releases). We have a few commentaries, some making of features, and a few featurettes. Also, the episodes seem to be in sequential order throughout the set this time (it seemed as if some of the episodes were in the wrong places on the Season 1 release). This is a strong set, and I highly reccomend it.

Movie Review: Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'll be honest; I didn't realize this show had been on for as long as it was. I didn't realize it's pretty much where Ashton and Topher got their start. And I defintely didn't realize it was as funny, hilarious, and cute as it is. I by-passed it many times while channel surfing and now regret it. My son got hooked on it while at the beach this year; staying up until 4am watching a marthon of them. He asked for a set of DVD's for his birthday so for some reason I got Season 2 instead of starting with Season 1. It didn't matter. I picked right up with it since it was the only thing on our television for a week and the more I watched the more hooked I became. Each character gives so much to the show and is so well acted. From Kitty's 'laugh' to the guys communing in their little circle, I'm usually laughing from beginning to end. And Fez, oh my gosh, just his accent alone is hysterical. It's good humor, not too over the top, and straight up funny.Movie Review: Awesome show
Summary: 5 Stars
The show starts in 1976. I 'came of age' a few years before that, but it was still the 1970s, and I can say this show is quite realistic. The censors let some things that were very commonplace at that time make it to the air, which is pretty unusual in this PC era. I don't like canned laughter, so I appreciate the fact that it was taped before a live audience. The only season I don't particularly care for is the last one. No Topher Grace, no Ashton Kutcher (not on a regular basis, anyway), Donna had gone blonde (what??) and there was that new guy.. can't remember his name. The show was pretty much finished by then, which is unfortunate, but nothing this good could last forever. In the last season, the only characters who still had good lines were Kitty and Red, and those seemed strained at times. All in all, a wonderfully entertaining sitcom, and while I'm sorry to see it go, I'm glad it's available on DVD.
