That '70s Show: Every Episode Title Based On A Song

As a period sitcom, That '70s Show paid homage to the decade in which the series was set. Seeing as it was the 1970s, music had a huge influence on the storylines and the overall vibe of the show. In fact, many of the show's episode titles were based on songs by popular musical artists.

For a show which featured so much hit music from the '70s and earlier decades, it only made sense for That '70s Show to showcase a catchy theme song. Big Star's "In the Street" was recorded with additional lyrics for the show's theme song. Beginning in season 2, the series used a version of the song by Cheap Trick who also added the repeated phrase, "We're all alright!" to their version. Cheap Trick's version of the theme song was used until the series ended in 2006.

Music was a major influence on the lives of Eric Forman and his close friends. The very first episode of That '70s Show featured the teens traveling to Milwaukee for a Todd Rundgren concert. That was just one of many concerts referenced on the show before the sitcom featured a musical episode in season 4. In addition, disco and rock music receive their fair share of attention on the series. Donna Pinciotti also works as a radio DJ for a brief time while Steven Hyde ended up managing one of his father's record store. As a tribute to music, the series based some of their episode titles on song titles, especially in the later seasons. Here's a complete list of the songs, including the artist and which album the song was released.
