Trivia:

During Season 6, Topher Grace and Ashton Kutcher wanted to leave the series, but decided to stay on for season 7, which was supposed to be the final season. But Fox decided to go on and make Season 8 without either cast member. The characters of Eric and Kelso were written out of the show. Fox brought in a new character named Randy to take their place. With two of the most popular characters gone, ‘That 70s Show’’s ratings heavily dropped and Fox was forced to end the show. But Topher Grace and Ashton Kutcher still decided to return for the final episode of the series.

Quotes:

Red Forman: And you are about to read a book that my foot wrote, it's called on "On the road to in your ass".

I have always love That 70's Show - with its humour and great scripts. To hear it was ending was such a blew to the mind, but it was a brilliant ending. I've wrote the basic ending and plot of the finale. I will always love the show! As the series concluded, the Formans decide not to move to Florida and sell their home (after Kitty gives a sentimental tour of the house to a prospective buyer with the TV camera as the buyer's POV allowing viewers to see the enclosed layout of the first floor).

Hyde gives up old habits, but returns to them shortly. Fez and Jackie start dating. Hyde's father gives him ownership of the record store. The episode also featured the return of Eric and Kelso. Donna prepares to finally leave Point Place to attend college, but stays to wait for Eric, with whom she may have gotten back together.

The reunited group of friends enjoy flashbacks from past years such as Hyde punching Kelso in the arm, and Red's numerous threats of shoving his foot up people's asses.

The episode ends at the stroke of midnight on New Years Eve 1979. The gang smokes out one last time before the new decade in the basement and walk upstairs to join the parents. At the 3-2-1 countdown to 1980, we see the license plate with the producers' names showing an "80" sticker in the lower right hand corner of the plate, as opposed to 76/77/78/79.

The final credits shown were the same used in the pilot with the teenage cast driving in the Vista Cruiser singing along to "Hello, It's Me!" by Todd Rundgren.
