Since That ’90s Show premiered on Netflix in January 2023, fans have fallen in love with the younger cast playing the new kids of Point Place! The That ’70s Show spinoff follows Leia Forman (Callie Haverda), the daughter of Eric Forman and Donna Pinciotti, while she’s visiting her grandparents Red and Kitty for the summer. During her visit, the teen meets Gwen (Ashley Aufderheide) and other outcast kids, ultimately deciding to stay for the summer. Callie and Ashley sat down with J-14 and revealed their thoughts on season 2, what they want to see in potential episodes and more!
Will There Be a ‘That ’90s Show’ Season 2?
Netflix has officially renewed That ’90s Show for season 2, Deadline announced on February 2023.
All of us at ‘That ‘90s Show’ were beyond excited by the warm, enthusiastic response to our first season. We can’t wait to return to Point Place for another summer of laughs and surprises. Hello 1996!” said series cocreator, executive producer and showrunner Gregg Mettler.
When Does ‘That ’90s Show’ Season 2 Get Released?
The first eight episodes will drop on June 27, 2024, and another eight will be released later in the year, on October 24.
All of the recurring cast members are expected to return, including some of the OG guest stars from season 1 like Laura Prepon, who played Donna.
However, Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, who reprised their roles of Jackie and Kelso in the first season, said they would not return for the second season of That ’90s Show.
“We did our thing, and they introduced our son in the show,” Mila explained in an interview with ET, referencing Mace Coronel‘s character, Jay Kelso.

What ‘That ’90s Show’ Stars Have Said on Season 2
“There’s nothing that I want more than a season 2. I literally would do anything,” Ashley exclusively told J-14 in January 2023.
As for what she would want to see in potential episodes?
“I feel like Gwen has a lot of different layers to her. I mean, she’s very bold. She’s a riot girl, rebellious. But I think that comes from somewhere. It definitely does. And at the end of the season, you see more of a vulnerable side to her. So I definitely want to explore that more in season 2 — just peel back more of Gwen’s layers, [that] would be great.”
As for specific scenes she would like to see, Ashley revealed that she wants more family moments between Gwen and her brother Nate (played by Maxwell Acee Donovan). On top of that, Ashley also agreed that it would be “cool” for her alternative music-loving character to possibly join a band in upcoming seasons, adding: “Season 2, season 2!”
