Kitty for the character ask

I'm going to do this ask game a little differently. I'll put what I think is canon from what we see on the show (where applicable) as well as my headcanon. 😃

Sexuality (canon): Heterosexual, heteromantic, alloromantic, allosexual.

Sexuality headcanon: Same as above.

Gender Identity (canon): Cis female.

Gender Identity headcanon: Same as above.

Ship: Kitty and Red -- and only Red.

Sistp: Kitty and Joanne.

Notp: Bob. Wet, bubbly Bob.

General Headcanon: She was very much like Jackie in high school -- socially popular and derived self-esteem from that status (her mother's treatment of her explains it) -- but a helper/caretaker rather than self-centered and very focused on her studies.

Opinion on the Character: A strong, wise, compassionate person with regular human flaws and range of emotions. She chose nursing as a career due to her nurturing nature. She wants the best for everyone she cares about, but she often doesn't ask for or get the same amount of care for herself.

She's a good, loving mother. Gives Laurie and Eric doses of reality when they need it (unfortunately, Laurie needs a lot). She tolerates Laurie's bad attitude while also doing her best to correct it. Encourages all her kids (including Hyde) to do their best in whatever healthy goals they pursue. She protects, or tries to protect, her and Red's kids from Red's sometimes unforgiving anger.

Season 5 gives her the perimenopause arc. We learn her father is a relatively high functioning, non-abusive alcoholic. He self-narcotizes with booze, and Kitty follows suit when faced with the inability to bear more children and the reality of her soon-to-be empty nest.

Her drinking was supposed to end with Red's heart attack in season 6, but the T7S writers thought alcoholic mothers are funny (Hyde's mom, Jackie's mom). So instead of Kitty having a storyline where she comes to terms with the realities sprung on her in the previous season, she's depicted as an "amusing drunk," whose intelligence dial is turned way down. Total character drift.

Her deftly woven complexities become comical traits. Overly attached to Eric to the point of infantilization and hostile possessiveness (usually aimed at Donna). The Kitty of S6-S7 is not the Kitty of S1-S5. Even in S5, she does her best to fight the hormone changes to her moods to nurture the people around her.

I get that Red was trying to help Eric from making a mistake by marrying too young. He and Donna were too young to get married (it’s my opinion they could’ve still been engaged and waited till after they graduated high school to marry). But I think Red was going too far by taking away everything that Eric earned— especially his job! That was vindictive and completely unnecessary. I hated how he did that to try to prove a point he couldn’t make by “demoting” Eric back to a ten year old. Red wanted Eric to be an adult TM, but by taking away his son’s responsibilities, he wasn’t doing that. Eric was really trying to prove to his father and everyone else he could handle supporting himself (and by extension Donna, even though she’d be working too), but Red took away all his chances.

I don't like how Red or Kitty reacted to Eric and Donna's engagement, either. That being said, I also understand their point of view.

Eric and Donna are only seventeen. While the planned length of their engagement is never explicitly stated or discussed in season 5, Red and Kitty's behavior implies that Eric and Donna plan on a relatively short one. Otherwise, Eric and Donna would've told them to chill because they don't plan on marrying until after college.

They never communicate that intention, however. If they had, the storyline would have fallen apart. The writers purposely never define the planned length of the engagement so that all the conflict between Eric and his parents can happen.

Red and Kitty fail to dissuade Eric and Donna verbally, including asking them simply to postpone the engagement by one year -- which, again, implies that marriage would soon follow.

Red tries to give Eric a dose of reality by firing him from PriceMart, that once married Eric wouldn't be a kid who could rely on his parents to fix or find solutions to his problems. Problems that would now be adult in nature: being financially responsible for his adult family, living expenses, future children (T7S prime canon, not T9S AU canon).

Neither Red nor Kitty want Eric to grow up unprepared, foregoing college because the responsibilities of marriage and maybe kids at a young age means he'll have to work full-time. We know from "Hunting" (season 2) that Red very much wants to prepare Etic for taking care of himself in a much less kind environment than his home -- i.e. the world.

Red and Kitty are desperate to get through their determined, stubborn, teenage son, who doesn't yet have the wisdom borne from experience to make different choices. He has an arrogance that many teenagers have about their choices. It's part of the growth process.

So Red pushes Eric and Donna to get married right away, at seventeen) to scare them into postponing engagement/marriage.

The one act that I believe goes too far is Kitty sabotaging Eric getting the bank job. Again, I understand why she does it. She's right to believe if he gets that job that he'll delay college or never go. And if I were in her position, I might want to make a similar choice (I wouldn't necessarily act on it).

But Eric will live and by his own choices as an adult. He's made his decision at seventeen, and in a year -- at eighteen -- he's legally an adult. Getting that bank teller job is another indication that he and Donna planned on a short engagement.

Red and Kitty are parenting Eric the best, imperfect way they can, trying to protect Eric from his own dumbassery.

I do think that an in-character Donna, at least, would have insisted on a long engagement that lasts through college. Eric would have agreed to it, too, even if he were eager to be married during college. But the T7S writers began manipulating the characters in season 5 to manufacture conflict and put plot first.

So with Peacock putting That 70s Show on, I have been doing an amazing rewatch. And I’m on Season 3 Episode 6: Eric’s Panties. And it’s at this point that Hyde should have moved back in with Bud, but he still is seen as eating with the Formans in multiple episodes. And I know that the show was never aired in order of filming or like story line, but I like to think that the Formans saw Hyde as their son so much that even when he moved out, they kept feeding him because we all know that Bud wasn’t going to do a good job of that! Anyway, I just noticed that, and I thought it was a cute little head cannon that I wanted to share.

Update

Today is the year anniversary of when I came home from the hospital! 🎉

In honor of that, I'd like to do an ask game.

I'm not yet at the build-up-excitement stage for Those Who Play with Demons, although I'm halfway through the epilogue (it's become quite a thing; you'll find out) and have a lot of extras made (and more to make).

I've got a new Those '70s Comics episode to post coinciding with the release of Those Who Play with Demons.

I might write a short Fez/Buddy story.

So I ask you what kind of ask game you'd be interested in: one about Those Who Play with Demons, a Jukebox Ask Game, a simple-ish Top Ten X (not necessarily solely related to T7S) tag game?

---

Also of note, my birthday is on the 11th, next Thursday. Escaped death to live another year! 🥳

Thank you to all my friends I've met through fandom, from those I made since April 5, 2023 to those I made way back when I first joined the fandom actively back in March of 2010 -- and all the time between. You've enriched my life in important ways. 🤗♥️

Welcome back to another installment of That '70s Show original scripts - this time we're looking at S2xE23 "Holy Crap!"

Special shoutout to my hubby, who put this in my stocking for Christmas 😘 (The cast signatures are a reprint, but still very cool!!) There were not a ton of changes to this episode, but as always, read on for my summary.

The first change is this cut line from Eric after Red's story about his destroyer going down during the war. Eric (feebly) starts a comeback, but decides against it. 🤣

The next cut moment is Eric talking to God on the driveway when he and Laurie decide to ditch church. Also: 😂

The dialogue between the guys in the next scene at The Hub is slightly different, though the scene ends up in the same place:

The ending of this scene is different. After Kitty tells them "if you want to spend eternity doing laps in a lake of fire, that's your choice!", Red tells the kids their mother is right. And that they should sit down and watch the Brewers game and think about it. 😂

There are two small changes in this scene: Eric's cut line - "Hey, you're both right" - and Donna calling Kelso 'Michael' 😵‍💫

This cut line was funny - after Hyde's eloquent rant about his views on organized religion and why he doesn't participate/attend church, Eric says, "Yeah, that's what I meant. That and the tie thing."

There is this cut (mini) Eric/Donna moment: Bob thinks Eric should be at church, confessing to his dirty, dirty sins. 😂 His comment annoys Donna.

And this one, too! Donna says 'hi' to Eric when they get to heaven 😂🥰

Red and Kitty's conversation here is a little different. Kitty says Eric is 'living like a rock star' because he's sleeping with the next door neighbor and not going to church *lmao*. Red seems to disagree - he has a cut line about Eric being seventeen, and starting to make his own decisions.

In the Circle, Eric continues to freak out/disassociate. 🤣

Then there's this cut moment between Donna and Jackie 👀

Jackie makes it clear she's not taking/hearing Donna's well-intentioned advice to avoid Kelso after he's cheated on her, and claims "now she has to go sleep with him". Donna calls her "dumb - and not regular dumb, like cheerleader dumb".

(I'm personally glad this exchange was cut. Both the Jackie sleeping with Kelso line, and Donna's comment - although I can understand her frustration!)

Finally, there are two short cut scenes at the end.

In the episode, the last scene is in the Forman living room. Kitty excitedly yells, "Ha! C'mon everybody, the Formans are going to church!"

In the script, the next scene cuts to the Formans and Pinciottis in church, presumably right after that.

Then there's this cut Leo/Pastor Dave duet, which was supposed to be the credits scene.

I feel robbed!!! I want to see these two characters singing Godspell, damnit! 🤣😂

That's all she wrote, folks! Thanks for reading along for another one with me, your host, @thatseventiesbitch 😊

Other Scripts I've Posted:

S2xE20 "Kiss of Death" S2xE22 "Jackie Moves On" S2xE26 "Moon Over Point Place" S5xE21 "Trampled Under Foot" S7xE8 "Angie"
