It's more of a departure from the original 70s Show than one would expect. The initial intent was apparently to re-create the chemistry of the kids, which they did quite adequately. Leia Forman manages to be a good mix of Eric and Donna's respective quirks.
What was unexpected is how much of the heavy lifting was done by the adult characters, including the new next-door neighbor Sheri...an oversexed single mom who embodies the cliche "hot mess".
Her daughter Gwen serves as kind of a mentor to Leia.
Part of the fun is the cameos by the original gang and seeing how they've changed while keeping their personalities. Except maybe Fez.
Bottom line: it's NOT That 70s Show, but it is fun.
