Here's Why
Kurtwood Smith
Returned To Play
Red Forman on
That '90s Show
By PAULI POISUO
The character of Red Forman, played by Kurtwood Smith, is a large part of "That '70s Show,” and it makes sense that he'll appear in the upcoming continuation of the series, "That '90s Show.” His return will be pretty grand since Red and Debra Jo Rupp's Kitty Forman have been announced as main characters.
The actor’s primary motive to return to the show was that he loves his character and loves playing opposite Rupp's Kitty. "I can't tell you too much, but I can tell you that the big thing for me was getting to play that character again and playing that character with Debra Jo Rupp playing my wife Kitty," Smith said.
Smith is also thrilled by the reaction to the character and the show's return. "We finished two episodes, and the response has been terrific," he said. "So I think you're going to be very happy."
