Following the release of the trailer for "That '90s Show," some fans were more excited than others, but those who enjoyed the trailer pointed out that Leia Forman looks like she's going to be one of the best parts of the series. In the "That '90s Show" subreddit, a popular thread highlighted the teaser trailer. Comments about Leia were flying, as u/upstatedreaming2816 said, "She's like a mini eric." Redditor u/Shadow_Boxer1987 agreed, saying, "She'll probably be a bit of Donna and a bit of Eric. If I had to guess I'd say she'll probably wanna be a writer like her mom but she'll have Eric's witty yet reticent sense of humor. Edit: Is it funnier if she loves or hates Star Wars?" Then u/DMcFadin responded hilariously, "Make her a trekkie and I'd be happy."
Fans seemed a little less convinced about the new crop of teenagers, with u/Zdradimir writing, "Red and Kitty great as always, but the kids still have some convincing to do. Cautiously optimistic." Then u/aubor pointed out, "I was wondering if I'm too old now to relate to teenagers. The cast looks so young..." This is a bit of a change over "That '70s Show," which mostly cast adults as teenagers. In an appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" in 2012, Mila Kunis explained that she misled the producers about her age when she started on the show, making them think she was almost 18 when, in fact, she was 14. She told them she was going to be 18 but didn't specify in which year. There's nothing wrong with the actors being so young in the new series, but fans of the original show might have to adjust to seeing actual teenagers play these newcomers.
