Played By Danny Masterson
Steven Hyde is the only stripling character reference fromThat ' 70s Shownot to appear inThat ' 90s Show , and this is n’t going to change . Actor Danny Masterson was facing multiple effectual trials top up to season 1 , and he has since been sentence to 30 years to life in prison , which he is currently serve . consecrate the severity of his criminal offense , it seems that Netflix has decided to distance itself all from the actor and his grapheme , andthere has so far been no recognition in the spinoff serial that a character named Steven Hyde ever existed .
Many hop that Hyde would be approach separately from the player who run him and that the character would get a satisfying ending through a go credit . Given the character ’s personality inThat ' 70s Show , it would certainly make sensory faculty that he , too , would have ended up in prison , and this could be brought up by Kitty or Red in future episodes . However , this would put on the line making brightness level of a very serious situation . In all , That ' 90s Showmay be better off just moving on from Hyde , and since he was n’t mention in time of year 2 , it seems this is the architectural plan .
3Laurie Forman
Played By Lisa Robin Kelly & Christina Moore
Laurie Forman , older sister to Eric inThat ' 70s Show , has also not been included so far inThat ' 90s Show . The character was initially played by Lisa Robin Kelly , but her dependency to drugs and alcohol led the actor to come and go from the show before she was eventually remold inThat ' 70s Showseason 6 . Kelly passed away in 2013 , make her replication toThat ' 90 Showimpossible . However , since Christina Moore was the last worker to present the character , Laurie may return in future season .

Given the worker ’s tragic death , it could be consider insensitive for Netflix to bring Moore back and ignore the legacy of Kelly ’s performance . It might be better ifThat ' 90s Showsimply references Laurie ’s theatrical role , just as in time of year 2 when Kitty mentioned stimulate to keep pregnancy examination around the house since her girl was often " societal . "
2Midge Pinciotti
Played By Tanya Roberts
Donna ’s clueless mother inThat ' 70s Show , Midge Pinciotti is another character absent fromThat ' 90s Showseason 2 .

thespian Tanya Roberts passed aside in 2021 , so Midge will not be appearing in future sequence ofThat ' XC Show . Kitty mentioned in season 2 that , with Bob back in Point Place , all of Leia ’s grandparent were living in one place , whichseems toindicate that Midge has passed away sinceThat ' 70s Showas well . However , it ’s also potential that , given the character ’s status as an absentee mother , Kitty was n’t include her . Perhaps future seasons ofThat ' 90 Showwill have some clearer resolution .
1Randy Pearson
Played By Josh Meyers
Josh Meyers ' Randy Pearson was brought intoThat ' seventy Showseason 8 as a substitution for Eric Forman , who was written to take off to teach in Africa when Grace decided to depart from the series . The changed dynamic within the booster chemical group meant that Randy was n’t a particularly pop part . When Grace returned for the finis ofThat ' 70s Show , Randy was moderately much thresh out into the frigidness and was only featured for a short conniption . at last , this means that Meyers ' eccentric would make for the perfectThat ' 90s Showcameo , though it has n’t bump yet .
That ' 90s Showhas accept a few favourable opportunities to make merriment ofThat ' 70s Show , with fibre pointing out the absurdness of things like teenagers hanging out with the fully grown Leo or the mystery of Fez ’s household rural area . An visual aspect from Randy would be play on a similar notation , andthere could be dozens of jokes sharpen on the fact that he was essentially a failed character . Unfortunately , That ' 90s Showseason 2 did n’t take advantage of this comedic potential , but perhaps that will change in future installment .
