[edit] Should all episodes have their own articles?

Should all the episodes really have their own articles? Why not use the same format as in, for example: Futurama (TV series - season 1): meaning there would be an article for every season, with summaries of all the episodes of the season in them. --Konstantin 16:55, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

I agree, unless anyone has any complaints I will be removing all the links sometime soon. There isn't really a point in having an article for each episode. -- PS2pcGAMER 03:38, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

Why don't we have an article for each episode? Stargate SG-1, Star Trek: Enterprise, and Family Guy all have articles for every episode. What makes That 70's Show any different? --Mattwj2002 21:25, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't see any reason in removing what we've already got. On the flip side, I'd be more than willing to write some summaries of the episodes without articles currently. Let's finish up the List of episodes first though. --mattst88 June 14, 2006

I totally agree lets first start with getting the list up to shape. We should work towards getting this list to Featured lists quality eventually. It doesn't have to be feature list quality before we work on the individual episodes though! :P --Mattwj2002 11:42, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Would someone explain to me what "TV Broadcast" means? Also, I think it would be fairly interesting to include the date the show took place, as in May 17, 1976 for the Pilot Episode. Obviously some don't have defined dates "Thursday 1976", but it would be interesting nonetheless. --mattst88 June 16, 2006

If you look at Futurama list you will notice that the column represents the order and group the series was broadcast. (Ex: S01E01, S01E02, etc) -Mattwj2002

By the way, here's a link to an episode guide containing airing dates and production codes. http://that70scentral.com/guide.php --mattst88 June 16, 2006

[edit] Trouble accessing

I've been having trouble accessing the episode pages. What is happening is apostrophies are being replaced with question marks (ie That ?70s Pilot instead of That '70s Pilot. I suspect the wrong apostrophe character might be used (ie, ` instead of '). Q0 00:56, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Firefox vs Internet Explorer issue

I noticed with our table that color shows up in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer. Any ideas what that is all about? --Mattwj2002 11:45, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia Portals and Projects

Hey guys do you think we should start a That '70s Show Portal and/or Project? I was thinking it might be a great way to get people involved in articles related to this series. Also, I wanted to point out that there is a List of Television Episodes Project. Thanks for your input guys. --Mattwj2002 10:10, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

I think it'd be a good idea. --mattst88 June 18, 2006

Ditto. - Zone46 03:15, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Seasons 6, 7 and 8 tables

If anyone wants to make tables for the last three seasons, I'll go ahead and fill them in with synopses, airdates and production codes. - Zone46 03:15, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Never mind, I guess I can do them. - Zone46 02:16, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I've nominated this for a Featured List

I finished the tables, synopses and notes. I proof-read for typos (think I got 'em all). I'll see what feedback I get and how else I can improve the list. - Zone46 07:02, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

It's now been a week and it doesn't look like the list is going to pass. Oh, well, can't win 'em all. Thanks for everyone's advice and help during the review process, it looks better than it did when I nominated it. - Zone46 23:59, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I noticed some of the comments in the FLC. I think the plot summaries need a little more detail, but I'm not an expert on the show. If you would like the tables reformatted with the summaries on the bottom so you can expand them each as you please I could do that for you. Just let me know. Jay32183 22:49, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Missing Pictures

I managed to get most pictures from that70scentral.com[1], but a majority of Season 8 and several other episodes/specials have none. If anyone has or can find free pics, please place them here. - Zone46 13:57, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
