9 Reasons To Watch 'That '70s Show'

College is hard, and every once in a while, we need a distraction from the bookwork and exams. Netflix is the perfect escape, but some of the shows can be pretty intense. In the midst of midterms, you need a series that can make you laugh until you cry as you mindlessly watch it. That ’70s Show does just that, and you’ll even grow attached to the characters as the seasons go by. With their unique personalities and unfortunate mishaps, you will never want to stop watching.

1. Eric Forman

The definition of awkward, but you gotta love him. He constantly worries about the wrath of his dad, while trying to win over and keep the girl of his dreams. If you are constantly “burned” by your friend group, then you will definitely be able to relate to Eric.

2. Jackie Burkhart

You know that person in your group of friends who no one really likes? Well, that’s her. Played by Mila Kunis, Jackie is incredibly spoiled, condescending, and controlling over her men. Her crazy antics are almost hilarious, and by the end of the first season, you’ll want her to stay around. After all, she is fabulous!

3. Michael Kelso

Oh Kelso…he has the heart of child and also, the brain. He loves puppies and “doing it.” Ashton Kutcher plays this character, so you won’t mind staring at him during each episode.

4. Steven Hyde

Everyone needs a friend who isn’t afraid to tell it like it is. He has an incredibly dry and sarcastic sense of humor, which is only reinforced by his delinquency and mindset that the government is corrupt. He has spent his fair share of time in “the circle” and is often the supplier for the group.

5. Donna Pinciotti

“Hot Donna” or “Lumberjack” according to Jackie. She’s more masculine than Eric, but all the boys want her. She’s a feminist in the 70's, but still likes to have a good time.

6. Fez

The foreign exchange student who has “needs.” The group takes him in under their wing and puts up with his cluelessness about how to act in this country. You never learn where he is originally from, but it sounds like a scary place.

7. Kitty Forman

The sweetest little lady until she starts to go through menopause. She is Eric’s mom and never wants to see him grow up.

8. Red Forman

He has the classic line of, “I’m going to put my foot into your ass” and phrases it in multiple ways. Red is your typical angry dad, as he his always yelling at everybody; however, his soft side comes through during certain moments of the show, especially if they involve beer.

9. Leo

Hey man…come on man! Woah man…

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
