That '90s Show: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Nick Allen RogerEbert.com A harmless, also relatively pointless piece of nostalgia that has an even deeper fondness for a mustier style: the TV sitcom. Jan 28, 2023 Full Review That '90s Show: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Steve Greene indieWire That ‘90s Show is the equivalent of a great throwback burger joint with a short menu. The food might have a familiar taste, but it finds an efficient way to overdeliver on the basic expectations. Rated: B+ Jan 23, 2023 Full Review That '90s Show: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Manuel Betancourt AV Club If you grew up watching That ’70s Show, you’ll likely have no way of assessing whether That ’90s Show works on its own. Maybe it can’t. And maybe it doesn’t even want to. Rated: B Jan 19, 2023 Full Review That '90s Show: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Branyan Towe Loud and Clear Reviews Watching her in That ’90s Show, Leia should remind you of that awkward, filled with nerves teen that wanted nothing but fun and to make memories. I have been in her shoes, and Haverda’s performance brought me right back there Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 29, 2024 Full Review That '90s Show: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Anna Miller Discussing Film There’s plenty of nostalgia to be found in this redundant streaming revival, but if someone is looking for a fresh and unique story, characters, and gags, perhaps they should venture out of Wisconsin. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 26, 2023 Full Review That '90s Show: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Erin Maxwell LA Weekly/Village Voice hat ’90s Show is reminiscent of a Disney+ series. It doesn’t live up to the standards of its predecessor, but the PG-rated antics might be amusing to younger audiences, unaware of the salacious humor its forebear did so well.

Bruno D As a gen z-er I found the series really likeable,witout even watching “that 70’s show” Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Tim S This show is nothing like that 70s show. The cast doesn't have any of the charisma or magic the original had. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review Kenneth S A horrendous remake. The new cast is abysmal and unlikeable. The jokes don't land and it relies on the original cast for nostalgia. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/01/24 Full Review Kris Savona V As a fan of the original "That 70s Show," I was eagerly anticipating the release of "That 90s Show." Unfortunately, the series has not lived up to my expectations. While I appreciate the effort to create an inclusive and modern take on a beloved classic, the execution feels more like a Nickelodeon show than a continuation of the authentic and unfiltered spirit that made "That 70s Show" so special.The 90s setting offers so much potential for nostalgia and cultural references, but the portrayal of the characters and their interactions feels overly sanitized and lacks the raw, relatable humor that resonated with audiences in the original series. The attempts at inclusivity, while commendable, often come across as forced and detract from the authenticity of the time period.One of the saving graces of "That 90s Show" is the presence of the original cast members. Their performances still shine despite the limitations of the script, providing glimpses of the charm and wit that fans adored. However, relying on nostalgia and the original characters to carry the show is not enough to compensate for the lack of substantial content and engaging storylines.In its current form, "That 90s Show" feels like a missed opportunity. To truly capture the essence of the 90s and honor the legacy of its predecessor, the show needs to embrace a more genuine, less polished approach that reflects the real experiences and challenges of the era.I hope the creators will take this feedback to heart and consider making adjustments to better align the show with the expectations of longtime fans. If these changes are not feasible, it might be best to reconsider the continuation of the series. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review Jim F Unwatchable. The fake laughter every 3 seconds is mega annoying. Writers in Hollywood apparently forgot what a joke is. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/24 Full Review Jonathan R Show is overall just great hits all the things for the 90s and ties the old show into this new one perfectly. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/13/24 Full Review Read all reviews
