In just three months of 2019, for example, 131 million episodes of the show were watched on the streamer.
As for when That ’70s Show will be returning to a streaming service, no one has yet announced that they are taking the show. There are, however, a number of hints as to where it might go.
Carsey-Werner TV Distribution president Carsey-Werner told Deadline that “at least 3-4 other places” have expressed an interest in the show, which is expected to be sold for a nine-figure sum.
However, fans should not discount That ’70s Show returning to Netflix eventually. With The Office and Parks & Rec leaving for Peacock, Friends heading to HBO Max and New Girl likely to go to Disney+, Netflix may be winning to pay top-dollar to keep one of its last remaining major classic comedies.
Newsweek has reached out to Netflix for comment about whether they may bring That ’70s Show back and will update this article when we get a response.
