The Pill - S1-E17

Visible crew/equipment: When Jackie tells Eric that she can really use a friend right now, in the next shot facing Eric just as he says, "Okay, well, good luck with that," the camera and crew member wearing a blue shirt can be seen at the left side of the screen. (00:01:00)

Super Grover

Canadian Road Trip - S3-E23

Time Is on My Side - S7-E1

Character mistake: Kitty wants to reunite Bob and Midge together, saying it will reunite their only daughter. Bob has 3 daughters (just seen the younger one once). (00:12:30)

Stone Cold Crazy - S8-E5

Other mistake: Jackie comes out of her room while Fez has Caroline over, stating that she has to use the bathroom. However, in a previous episode, during Fez and Kelso's fight for the same room, it is the room that "has its own bathroom." (00:16:00)

Surprise, Surprise - S7-E10

Character mistake: When Bob shows up in the driveway with the free calendar from Red's muffler shop, the calendar says "Foreman and Son." Their last name is spelled "Forman" without the E.

We Will Rock You - S8-E18

Show generally

Show generally

Factual error: At the start of every episode we see the gang driving. Cars in the background are not from the 70s but the late 90s. For instance, the truck that comes up beside them at the end is a 90s Ford F150.

Kiss of Death - S2-E20

Continuity mistake: When Jackie leaves the basement and Lorie comes down she's wearing green pants, but as soon as she walks away they're blue jeans. The shirt, jacket are the same, but it's the pants that change.

Fun It - S8-E7

Other mistake: When Bob comes to order from the clown, he gets told to go away since they're closed. He starts pulling away, but you can see he doesn't leave the frame quickly. The edge of the car is still visible when the gang is sneaking back over.

More quotes from That '70s Show

Trivia: The show was originally titled "Teenage Wasteland" or "The Kids Are Alright" but those were songs by The Who and, legally, Fox couldn't get permission to use them. They renamed the show "Feelin' Alright" to show the focus groups. However, nobody really liked the name. After the focus groups airing, the audience were heard saying they really liked that show about the 70's or that 70's show - and the name stuck.

Chosen answer: He isn't. Time moves slowly in the show because they didn't want it to turn into "That '80's Show". In the first episode, he say's he's 17 but the second episode was his 17th birthday so he must have been 16. The first 12 episodes are set in 1976, the next 2 seasons are set in 1977, the next 3 seasons are set in 1978, and the remaining shows take place in 1979 with the final show on Dec 31, 1979 when Eric must be 20 as he turned 17 in 1976.
