The 22nd episode of season eight, aptly named That '70s Finale, marked the comedy's last episode.
The instalment, which was set on New Year's Eve in 1979, saw Red and Kitty announce their decision to stay in Wisconsin having been preparing to sell their home and relocate to Florida.
Meanwhile, Jackie and Fez share their first kiss at the water tower, having just begun dating, and Kelso returns from Chicago, where he had moved to be closer to his baby daughter.

Ahead of Eric's coming home from Africa, Kitty tells Donna that she wishes the pair of them could have worked things out. This prompts Donna to head outside for some fresh air and reflect on her relationship with Eric before he makes an appearance and tells her that he still loves her.
