Debra Jo Rupp And Topher Grace Kept A That ’70s Show Tradition Alive In That ’90s Show – Looper

Speaking with Seventeen Magazine, the younger cast of “That ’90s Show,” including Reyn Doi, Sam Morelos, Maxwell Donovan, and Ashley Aufderheide, had a chance to speak about this brand-new show and their experiences on it. Asked who gives the best advice, Donovan replied and said that they felt like Kurtwood Smith and Debra Jo Rupp took them under their wing, and then mentioned that on the first day of filming, Topher Grace and Debra Jo brought them lunch and explained the traditions from “That ’70s Show.” Donovan added that these actions helped take a lot of the stress away from being on set.

Doi then jumped into the conversation and explained the aforementioned tradition by saying, “Every time we do the live show, we always gather Kurtwood, Debra Jo, all the kids and then we put our hands in.” Morelos continued, “And we say our favorite line from that episode,” and Aufderheide finished by saying, “They had that tradition in ’70’s Show’ too, which is cute that they included us in that.” It is fun to imagine what this interaction looked like, and it sounds like the younger new cast feels totally honored in being included and taught about this specific tradition from “That ’70s Show,” which sounds like one part team-building and one part being proud and excited about one’s work. Let’s hope that there is much more “That ’90s Show” so this tradition can continue.
