Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the episode "The Drive-In" when Fez's foster parents are afraid that he is listening to rock-devil music, Hyde shows him how to hide the rock records in soft music record holders. He demonstrates with a record he claims is Alice Cooper and a Pat Boone holder. While the Pat Boone holder is correct, the record he is holding is actually a Led Zeppelin record titled "Led Zeppelin 4".

Quotes:

Donna Pinciotti: [after Eric reads Donna's journal when she leaves the room] Did you read my journal?
Eric: What journal?
Donna Pinciotti: You know, my "captain's log".
Eric: No, oh, no. I was just um, I was uh, going through your underwear drawer. Yeah, I know... that's why I look so guilty. Because I was like you know, taking out your underwear, and rubbing it against my skin. I can't stay away from your underwear that's my curse. So, anyway... see you tomorrow.

A winner for FOX

This show is one of my favorites. I just started watching it last week when Fox aired an episode every night of the week. I cannot believe I've been missing this show! It's one of the funniest shows I have seen in a long time. Tho, I'm no fan of the 70's as a decade, the show makes me wanna go back and live it all again...wait I was born in 1978, so forget that idea. Anyhow...the show follows the lives of a group of 17 year- olds in the 70's and everything they do is hilarious. I love the character of Fez, who happens to be foreign, and he's sorta the dork of the show. He tries to be cool and catch all the fads of the time, but he never seems to get it right, and he's always after Jackie, played by the beautiful Mila Kunis. As for Jackie, the relationship between her and her boyfriend is classic. The guy is a total idiot, and she's almost as dippy as he is...As for Eric, who is the male lead, and Donna- his girlfriend, they are so sweet together...if I do say so myself. They are the perfect couple on the show, and I'm shocked they're acting, they do the couple thing so well! The show is like a lot of comedies, but it's got an edge most shows don't. I love the shots where the camera rotates around the table, showing all the guys talking...it's a staple of almost every episode. Check this show out if you haven't had a chance, or chose to ignore it!!
