Great episode, great finale, and good to see Midge back! I was just wondering why Topher Grace was barely in the second half? There has to be a reason the actor wasn't in the show as much as he might have been.

My DVR cut off right as Eric and Donna got in bed, what happened after the commercial break?!
Pretty good episode, the Kelso/Morgan Faichild seemed a little tacked on.
Was this the season or series finale? I can not remember if they ae back for one more year or not.

Not sure if I need the spoiler tags so I"m gonna add them anyway...

Spoiler:

Bob wakes Eric up by spraying him with a bottle of water. Bob gives Eric a bill for $6000, the price of the wedding plus $1000 for pain and suffering. He tells Donna to buy something nice with the extra $1000, like a new boyfriend. Donna thanks Bob. They attempt to lay back down and Bob keeps spraying Eric

Geeze when did they turn this show into The OC? It sucked. They should have gotten married.

Awesome episode(s).

Lots of great little moments, but my favorite part was Red explaining why they were telling Hyde about his father.

Red: "She said "Why don't you make your own dinner...so here we are."

And Kelso's "It's customary to wait 30 seconds before passing the rolls."

And "Foot, Cockroach, Nuclear Bomb." That's my new favorite game.

Very strange finale. Eric stands Donna up at their wedding, and not only do we not even get to see her cry or even be all that pissed, she just invited him back into her bed as soon as he shows back up. It was just strange.

Highly weak. I felt like they were going to actually GO somewhere with the "Eric left" storyline but they never did. He shows up, acts like a puss, and she forgives him. What a waste of an hour. I think this show's definitely running on fumes now. And I thought they were all out of high school now, do any of them besides Kelso actually have JOBS or anything? I don't ask that the show become a documentary but it does seem a little weird that all they do is hang out in the basement smoking pot --- oh wait, that's what I did after high school. Never mind.

I still don't understand why this show is still on the air. I used to think it was very funny but it seems to have gone downhill this season. And is it me or is the guy who plays Fez starting to have trouble doing the accent? His voice sounds horrible.

Because it is still one hundred times better than most of the sitcoms on the air.

The best part of the entire hour was Hyde's creation of Cockroach, Foot and Nuclear Bomb. Theh Fez kept bringing it back up when he thought he had it figured out. "The cockroach beats everything - Let's play."

I didn't really give a shit that Midge came back.

Red was his normal consistently funny self.

Can anyone give me more details as to the return of Midge?

How did she show up and did she look the same?

Is she back on the show?


I have a crush on her from back in her Charlie's Angels days...

I just watched it and thought it was hilarious.

Hyde and Fez playing foot, cockroach, nuclear bomb had me rolling

I even thought Jackie was funny this episode.
