When is the That ’90s Show season 2 release date? Nostalgia hit like a ton of bricks when Netflix released the sequel TV series to the beloved That ’70s Show in January 2023. Set 20 years after its predecessor, That ’90s Show follows the daughter of Eric and Donna Forman as summer break hits.

There are laughs, cameos, young love, and plenty of drama in That ’90s Show as Leia and her friends navigate adolescence and come into their own. The comedy series has it all, and with that in mind, fans are already wondering what’s in store for Leia Forman as she sits in the same basement as her folks did with her colorful friends.

We’re here to answer your questions about the future of the Formans on the TV series. Here’s what you need to know about the That ’90s Show season 2 release date.

That ’90s Show season 2 release date speculation

We’re not expecting That ’90s to be released until 2024 following delays to the production. 

Filming for That ’90s Show was slated to take place in front of a live studio audience between May and September 2023. However, production has now been halted indefinitely because of the 2023 Writers strike. As of June 2023, this strike is still ongoing.

What is That ’90s Show season 2 about?

Season 2 of That ’90s Show will catch up with Leia and her Point Place pals in the summer of 1996. 

In the season 1 finale, Leia and Nate nearly kissed before being stopped by Gwen, with Jay, her boyfriend from Chicago, complicating things further by apologizing to her and asking her to give their relationship another try.

Before she had a chance to resolve this drama, Leia headed back to Chicago for a new school year — so we imagine season 2 will answer the question of whether Leia and Nate have unfinished business; and if so, there are bound to be wider implications for the group’s dynamics.

Is there a That ’90s Show season 2 trailer?

We won’t get a trailer for season 2 until at least some of the filming has finished.

You can’t have a trailer without any new footage, so you’ll have to hang tight and wait for filming to start again before you can even think about trailers! While you wait, though, check out the return of Kelso and Jackie in this clip from season 1!

How many episodes will That ’90s Show season 2 have?

Netflix has ordered 16 episodes for season 2 — but whether this actually happens is another question entirely.
