Ooh a good episode... I wonder if that record store will be their new hangout pad?

This episode sucked...what do we call it? Oh, an elf!

I do have some fav parts, tho:

-ERIC. I swear, I heart Topher. I'm so glad he's on this show.
-Jackie grabbing Kelso's hand. Hey, I take anything.
-The tag. Eric spoke to Jackie. I loved it.

Things I disliked:

-Kelso/Angie. No chemistry. She has more chemistry with Hyde.
-Jackie's bangs. Why did they put them in front of her face? Didn't like em.
-Donna. She doesn't look like Donna anymore, she looks like Laura.

Sucked.

Hyde and Eric are the only ones who look like they are from the 70s anymore.

I still love Topher.

However the Eric, Red, and Kitty scene played out like I hoped (somewhat)

Hmm, Eric a chiropractor? (sp?)--well, that's certainly interesting. And that's only if he doesn't pick a career after six months.

At least it was some character development. (Finally!)

and I liked how Red referenced all the stupid things the writers had Eric do of late like the chasing of the butterflies and the roller disco and how Eric had an explantion for those things.

You nailed it, CF.~Donna looks like Laura.

And although we can dismiss it as her being high--seducing the milkman for the crates? That's very anti-Donna.

I did like Kelso's line about them being toasted.

And he mentioned Brooke and the baby.

Was Styx really that unpopular in the late '70s? I know in the '80s there was a backlash because Tommy Shaw was in Styx and when he was in Damn Yankees they ripped on the song "Lady" and Dennis DeYoung got p.o.'d--Courtesy of VH-1's Behind the Music.

and as everyone knows I heart Topher, too. As of late he's the only reason why I tune into this show.

At least there was some minor Eric character development.

OH and the scene with the Thanksgiving paper feather cards--what Red wrote about Eric and Bob's comments were cute too.

End tag: When Kelso says "Happy Thanksgiving, Forman." He doesn't sound sincere. All I could do was shrug my shoulders and go, "Meh."

WOW this episode sucked. I was expecting SO much better for a Thanksgiving episode! EH.

My favorite part was the circle with Kitty/Eric/Red/Bob, that was about the only time I laughed. Oh and I was very glad to see Red acknowledge the fact that Eric is not making any decisions on what to do with his future. It's about time someone brought that up again! He gives him 6 months? Hmmm just in time for the finale!

The rest just sucked. There was like no Donna and Eric interaction. That whole Styx thing was lame. There is NO chemistry with Angie and anyone on the show! I just don't like that storyline at all. I was bummed that the family and kids weren't together having dinner on Thanksgiving.

I did like Kelso's line about how they bake themselves.

Oh and is it me or was Laura really tanned? She got a massive sunburn! I like her hair's style but not the color. I miss her red hair! I do NOT like Jackie's bangs at all.

On a "high" note, Hyde was looking quite hot tonight.

I guess that's about it. Overall it was pretty lame.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

I missed the first ten minutes and each scene was two seconds long.

I don't remember anything except Hyde with an unbuttoned shirt and Jackie bouncing on his knee. There was something about feeling her up, too.

Hee.

I'm going to download the episode. Just for those reasons alone. =)

Ok, first of, I know that I have a perverted mind of sorts...but I loved the "hittin it" jokes, even thought they meant the other kind...that little banter between Jackie and Hyde about "hittin' it" was HOT.

I liked this episode, maybe because I have chosen to not over analyze the show. The writers are gonna do what they want.

"Poppers!" Fez was funny.

I liked Jackie's hair, guess I am alone in that. She's hot when she's high.

Angie needs to "hit it...."

High points: Hyde's shirt....unbuttoned just enough...ahhh

Eric's first scene, where he was singing.
I just wanted to hug him for trying so hard.

Kelso's baked line was good...let's see what happens betwixt him and Angie.

Get Fez a lady. And how queer was it that "Bahb" was at the Forman's for Thanksgiving....? Donna should have been there, IMO. Not kissing the milkman.

Emma_Lee

Huh, I feel kinda stupid, cause I was pretty happy with this ep on the whole.

I mean, there were a lot of things I considered good.

- All parts concerning the record store - good. I like the idea. It suits Hyde as a job, and I hope they hang out there more.
- "Hittin' it" in the record store - VERY good. Any episode with multiple circles can't be all bad.
- "The Head" Hee. I'm sorry. It was funny. Oh, and also, Jackie's suggestion of "Jackie!"
- Making fun of Styx. I hate Styx. Heh.
- Hyde mentioned feeling up Jackie. Hot.
- Eric had some character development, and they referenced the stupid things he's been doing. It shows that at least the writers realize on some level that he's been very un-Eric lately.


And really, I don't know if Donna's kissing the milkman was too anti-Donna. I mean, in Hyde's Birthday she showed that kid her bra strap to get the sign he'd stolen. It reminded me of that.

LadyDi4476

Oh yeah I forgot about Eric singing Styx in the very beginning. THAT was funny. The look on everyone's face was pretty hilarious

Yeah there was something about Hyde...he was oozing hotness tonight! I think it was the combo of the shirt, being high, and all that closeness with Jackie. He was sizzling.

Sadeyes9074

Emma, don't feel stupid I liked the ep too.

Styx. Everytime I think of Styx, I see that "Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto" scene in Shrek 2.

Good_Day

Yeah but Donna didn't seduce the kid**. But I like at the end how she broke down to Eric, "I kissed the milkman!"

If the writers are actually thinking, that would make very happy.

Let's see what next week brings.

**That was after a Circle scene too.

Okay, I wasn't paying attention...what happened again?

Oh, wait! Hyde's shirt unbottomed just enough... Yeah, that's good stuff!

Wow, what a way for Donna to show her hard stance on feminism...flash your boobs and make out with the milk man so her friends can steal milk crates...she is woman...hear her roar.

I'm so tired of being underwhelmed. (shrugs) But what's new?
