00:18and Kurtwood Smith, who play Kitty and Red Foreman,

00:21on set of the series for a special interview

00:23all about the upcoming season.

00:25We are here in Kitty and Red's iconic kitchen.

00:28What's one scene that you filmed in here

00:30that's especially memorable for you?

00:32The one we just had, like three weeks ago,

00:36the entire cast, in the guest cast,

00:39in the kitchen, in one scene.

00:41I was in heaven as Kitty, in heaven.

00:46He was grumbling.

00:47Not my favorite scene.

00:48But one of my favorite scenes I had the most fun

00:51was with you and me and Laura.

00:53That was a lot of fun.

00:54We were completely kindergarten children.

00:57Yes.

00:57We broke.

00:58We just could not stop laughing.

01:01And it was really, it was lovely.

01:05The show follows Donna and Derek's daughter,

01:08Leah Foreman, as she spends her summers

01:09in Point Place, Wisconsin with her grandparents

01:11and makes new friends along the way.

01:13What's been the best part about returning to Point Place

01:16and getting to see another cast of kids grow up on camera?

01:19It's really special.

01:20I mean, these kids are younger overall

01:26than the cast was before.

01:29Just a little bit.

01:30Not that much, but yeah.

01:32We thought they were terrific last year

01:34and they're better this year.

01:36Last year, they had plenty of talent.

01:38It's now added to that as a sense of maturity

01:42because they know what they're doing more.

01:45You know, it wasn't all new to them.

01:47It's really fun to watch them navigate the business.

01:51Like, learn the business and kind of navigate it.

01:54We did it with 70s show with those kids

01:57and the business has changed.

01:59Things are different.

02:00And then to watch them go through this

02:04in kind of a different way, you know,

02:06but there are parts of it that are always the same.

02:10You know, you still go from being a kid

02:12to a teenager to a, you know.

02:14It's just, for me, it's a gift.

02:17It's a gift.

02:18Season one of the series saw many actors

02:20from the original show return to guest star

02:22like Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, and Wilmer Valderrama.

02:26As far as guest stars or original cast members,

02:29what can you tease about what we can expect in season two?

02:32The world of Point Place gets bigger.

02:34Yeah.

02:35You're gonna, you will discover much more of Point Place,

02:38more than perhaps you ever wanted to know,

02:40but it gets bigger.

02:42You know, we have visitors from the past

02:44and, um, uh, and, and new people as well.

02:48Well, that 70s show aired on Fox from 1998 to 2006.

02:52The sequel series streams on Netflix,

02:54bringing Rupp and Smith into the Netflix family.

02:57I saw you both were at the Netflix is a Joke comedy brunch

03:00with so many amazing fellow comedians.

03:01Oh my God.

03:02What was that day like?

03:03And who's somebody you got to meet for the first time

03:05that you, you know, had met before?

03:06Everyone.

03:07Yeah.

03:07For me, everyone.

03:09And Kurtwood, Kurtwood knew maybe three more people

03:12than I, I knew no one, very few.

03:14And then they took the photo.

03:16We got shoved down, shoved down.

03:18And then all of a sudden I am front row center

03:21and I'm horrified, horrified.

03:24Cause I knew everyone was,

03:26everyone's going to look at it and go,

03:27who, who is that?

03:29Who is that?

03:30You know?

03:30No, no.

03:31There's Jon Stewart.

03:33There's Kevin Hart.

03:34There's, who's that?

03:35I was just horrified, horrified.

03:38But I have the photo.

03:40It was fun seeing people that I haven't seen for a while.

03:45And Nick Kroll, Richard Kind.

03:50And I'm, you know, I met John Mulaney,

03:53who I hadn't met and I'm a big fan of.
