That 70s Show Season 5 [DVD]

The complete fifth season of the popular 70s inspired cult comedy series. Flash on back to the swinging '70s where there's a whole lotta love going around in the gang's senior year. Jackie (Mila Kunis) is secretly making out with Hyde (Danny Masterson) even though she still has the hots for Kelso (Ashton Kutcher). But Eric (Topher Grace) and Donna (Laura Prepon) soon have a bigger secret after Eric gives her a diamond ring. Even Fez (Wilmer Valderrama) finally finds love at the DMV. But it's the job fair that has everyone thinking of life after high school. Kelso toys with the idea of becoming a cop, while Donna and Eric plan on moving in together. But it's Fez's future that may be the most uncertain after he learns he's being deported. Episodes comprise: 'Going to California', 'I Can't Quit You Babe', 'What is and What Should Never Be', 'Heartbreaker', 'Ramble On', 'Over the Hills and Far Away', 'Hot Dog', 'Thank You', 'Black Dog', 'The Crunge', 'The Girl I Love', 'Misty ain Hop', 'Your Time is Gonna Come', 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You', 'When The Levee Broke', 'Whole Lotta Love', 'The Battle of Evermore', 'Hey Hey What Can I Do', 'Bring It On Home', 'No Quarter', 'Trampled Under Foot', 'You Shook Me', 'Nobody's Fault But Mine', 'Immigrant Song' and 'Celebration Day'. From .co.uk ----------- After the somewhat dramatic conclusion of That '70s Show's fourth season, which saw Donna (Laura Prepon) and Kelso (Ashton Kutcher) head to California, the fifth season (2002-2003) opens on a cheerier note, with Donna and Eric (Topher Grace) reuniting after the latter also travels West to declare his affections. Their dramatic progress of their relationship forms the crux of season 5, but if that sounds too heavy for you, don't worry--there are plenty of wacky situations on hand involving Fez (Wilmer Valderamma), Hyde (Danny Masterson), and the rest of the retro gang. Guest stars this season include Jessica Simpson in a recurring role as Kelso's California girlfriend, Annette, as well as Fred Willard, Tom Poston and Betty White as Kitty's parents, and Bobcat Goldthwait. In short, season 5 is standard issue for That '70s Show, a charming mix of broad comedy and teen-friendly drama that's well played by its very likable cast. The four-DVD set includes some surprisingly light extras: short reminiscences from Valderamma and Masterson, promos for each episode (which are not accessible via the "Play All" feature), and "Season Five in Five Minutes," which distills the 25 episodes to a five-minute . What's sorely missed are the commentary tracks that appeared on previous boxed sets but it's hard to imagine these omissions deterring longtime viewers from picking up this still-groovy set. --Paul Gaita
