Set in suburban Wisconsin, the soul of the series resides in the basement of the Forman house where Eric lives with his ultraconservative Dad, Red; high-strung Mom, Kitty; and college drop-out sister Laurie.
Eric gets by mostly with a little help from his friends – serious and cool Hyde, intellectually challenged Kelso and his controlling girlfriend Jackie (Mila Kunis) and exchange student Fez. Eric’s best friend and now girlfriend is next-door neighbor Donna (Laura Prepon) whose parents Bob and Midge are very deep into every ‘70s fad and fashion.
