When “That ‘90s Show” debuted on Netflix last year, it tried to cater to audiences of “That ’70s Show” while delivering something fresh. The show failed to do either, throwing in too many awkward cameos by the flagship’s original actors at the expense of getting to know the next generation of basement-dwelling teens.
Fast forward to the release of “That ‘90s Show” Part 2 on Thursday, June 27, and the series has finally found its groove. After Donna (Laura Preppon) drops Leia (Callie Haverda) off at her grandparents’ house for the summer, the original gang stays away. That means no awkward Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher cameos, or Wilmer Valderrama returning to remind us what a problematic character Fez was from the start.
