That '90s Show
Growing up is harder than it looks.
Created by Terry Turner, Lindsay Turner, Bonnie Turner, Gregg Mettler
On Netflix
A nostalgic, feelgood sitcom that trades on '90s period charm and multigenerational family warmth, built for comfort and rewatchability rather than stakes.
Hello, Wisconsin! It's 1995 and Leia Forman, daughter of Eric and Donna, is visiting her grandparents for the summer where she bonds with a new generation of Point Place kids under the watchful eye of Kitty and the stern glare of Red. Sex, drugs and rock 'n roll never dies, it just changes clothes.
