See What The Cast Of ‘That 70s Show’ Has Been Up To Since The Show Ended

It’s been 17 years since That 70s Show, the sitcom about the 70s that aired in the 90s, made its toking debut on Fox. The show had some of the best comedy writing on television at the time, and launched the careers of Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, and Topher Grace, and had a ton of notable guest stars. Most of its cast has gone on to have fruitful careers, but just in case you haven’t been paying attention or some of the cast slipped through the cracks, here’s an update on the gang from this retro classic.


Laura Prepon — Donna Pinciotti

Since moving on from That ’70s Show, Prepon has found success recently as Alex on Netflix’s Emmy-nominated prison dramedy Orange Is the New Black. Prior to that, she was the lead on short-lived sitcom Are You There, Chelsea?, based on Chelsea Handler’s book. Oh, and she’s a devout Scientologist who is all about thetans, cognition, audits, and Battlefield Earth Laser Discs (probably).


Topher Grace — Eric Forman

The show’s central character, Eric, left at the end of the show’s seventh season and it never fully recovered. In fact, it was pretty unbearable and just plain odd to watch. Since saying goodbye to his plaid shirts, Topher Grace has worked regularly in various film roles such as Spider-Man 3, Predators, Take Me Home Tonight, and last year’s Interstellar. Grace also launched the retro-themed internet wonderland Cereal Prize, and later this year will appear in the political drama Truth and the stoner thriller American Ultra.


Willmer Valderrama — Fez

Since ditching his goofy accent as Fez, Valderrama has spent much of his post-70s Show time making headlines for dating his way through a string of Hollywood starlets. As far as like, showbiz stuff, he hosted MTV’s yo mama joke competition titled Yo Mama, and dabbled in music with LMFAO. Currently, Valderrama is starring as a vampire lord in television series From Dusk Til Dawn.


Tommy Chong — Leo

Tommy Chong joined the cast much later than the rest of his costars but instantly gave the show a shot of comedic ’70s cred as stoner photo hut manager Leo. Chong has been an activist for the legalization of marijuana for years, even doing a stint in prison for distribution of his custom bongs. Since his release, Chong has been busy reuniting and touring with old comedy partner Cheech Marin, and appeared on The Simpsons, Franklin and Bash, and Raising Hope.


Danny Masterson — Steven Hyde

Masterson’s work in television and film hasn’t been quite as prominent as his other costars. He regularly works at Los Angeles nightclubs and private events as a DJ, going by the name DJ Mom Jeans (formerly DJ Donkey Punch), and is a well-known poker enthusiast. Masterson starred in the short-lived TBS comedy series, Men at Work, and last year appeared on an episode of Royal Pains.


Mila Kunis– Jackie Burkhart

Everyone’s pretty much caught up on what Jackie Burkhart’s been up to for the last decade, right? In case you need a brief reminder, she’s been voicing Meg on Family Guy since forever and appeared in a number of blockbuster films like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, The Book of Eli, Black Swan, and Ted. And as proof that the universe is a weird place and Hollywood is even weirder, Kunis ended up marrying 70s Show co-star Kelso, I mean Ashton Kutcher, and had a baby with him in 2014.


Ashton Kutcher — Michael Kelso

Ashton Kutcher’s greatest success following his time playing dum-dum Michael Kelso has been convincing Mila Kunis to marry him and make a baby. A truly amazing feat. Before that, he was making things awkward for Bruce Willis as the new husband of Demi Moore, and acted in some forgettable romcoms like No Strings Attached and What Happens in Vegas. Kutcher took over for Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men in 2011 after Sheen burned one bridge too many, and appeared as Steve Jobs in the biopic Jobs. But again — MILA KUNIS.


Debra Jo Rupp — Kitty Forman

Actress Debra Jo Rupp has cut down on her acting work over the last decade, though she did appear for two seasons on the now defunct TV show Better With You. In 2013, she made a guest appearance on Hart of Dixie, and last year had a small role in the comedy, The Opposite Sex.


Kurtwood Smith — Red Forman

Kurtwood Smith might not be calling people “dumbass” on television as often as he used to, but the actor has always had steady work. Over the last decade, Smith has appeared in everything from indie comedy Cedar Rapids, to the the animated film Turbo, and Adult Swim show Children’s Hospital. He was a regular on the recently cancelled Resurrection, and next year will appear in the horror film, Amityville: The Reawakening.


Don Stark — Bob Pinciotti

Much like Kurtwood Smith, Don Stark had been a regular character actor in Hollywood for years before putting on his polyester bell-bottoms for That 70s Show. Since then he’s appeared in everything from The Mentalist to American Horror Story to Castle.
