48 free That '70s Show trivia questions with answers. That '70s Show ran on Fox from 1998 to 2006 and never left the Forman basement in spirit. This That 70s Show trivia quiz covers all eight seasons: Point Place, Wisconsin, the Vista Cruiser, the circle, Red's foot and Kitty's laugh, Kelso falling off the water tower, Fez's unnamed homeland, Hyde's record store, Jackie's revolving boyfriends, and the abrupt New Year's Eve 1979 finale. There are questions on the cast before and after the show, from Topher Grace and Mila Kunis to Ashton Kutcher and Laura Prepon, on the guest stars (Betty White, Brooke Shields, Mary Tyler Moore, Katey Sagal), on the Big Star theme song and Cheap Trick's cover, on the season-eight shake-up with Randy, and on the spin-offs That '80s Show and Netflix's That '90s Show. Easy questions cover the town and the car; harder ones ask about episode-title bands, the working title and who played Hyde's dad. Every answer has been checked against the show's documented history and carries a linked source, so it holds up for a rewatch party, a pub quiz or a group chat argument.
