Season 2, episode 5; 36:29 - "Men are such simple things: driven by fear. In the end all they respect is violence." Tell me how this isn't Feminist misandry (the abject hatred of men).
All of these other reviews telling readers how we should just ignore those reviews rejecting this show because of the politics being rammed, jammed and crammed down the throats of the viewers.
The over the top, preaching of Leftist cult dogma is more than enough to make you gag and wretch.
I don't care that the acting and CGI are good because the Leftist cult preaching is putrid and worse than any Christian church I've been coerced or forced by family to tolerate and stomach.
All of this Leftist cult zealotry and haranguing is disgusting. And you call yourselves "tolerant". Tolerant my a##.

I grew up in the 70s. I remember the events. I remember the fads, the movies, and most especially the music (It's what I still listen to today).
I can even put names and faces to a few of the characters, or aspects of some of the characters from the show. The writers obviously remember the 70s as well because they got many of the cultural aspects dead on; the mannerisms, the jokes, etc.
One of the things they (obviously) had to include was the Feminism. It was the main point in many of the episodes.
But it's not the overt historical event of Feminism that I gave the show 1 star.
It was the incessant undercurrent.
Lets look at the characters: The girls:
Donna - smart, intelligent, quick witted, emotionally stable. She's the one character that has ZERO obvious personality defects.
Kitty - Probably the most deceptive of the women, she's demur, passive aggressive, bosses her husband, Red, around, frightens him with "having one of her moods".
Jackie - Very cute, utterly superficial and nearly vapid. Jackie would be the other side of the coin from Donna and despite this is still more dominant than any of the boys. She keeps Kelso under control.
Midge - built like a brick outhouse, and though she's the "dumb blonde" she's still smarter and better than her husband, Bob.
The boys:
Eric - If he was any more "whipped" he would need (Orchiopexy) repair surgery. Donna is constantly correcting him, directing him, and just plain bossing him around. Donna is the ventriloquist and Eric is her dummy.
Red - The bloviating, blow hard, pathetic bully who needs Kittie to keep him in line.
Kelso - Beyond stupid. The boy is nearly functionally "special needs" (if you get my drift). Needs Jackie to keep him in line, and tells him what to do. Kelso has NO self control and continually cheats on her.
Bob - The twit married to Midge. He's nearly as "special needs" as Kelso.
And in the final episode in season 3. The one where Eric finds out that Donna really doesn't love him and doesn't want a future with him, because he's really not Mr Right after all, he's just Mr Right-Now. Eric is destroyed to find out that Donna doesn't love him and Donna is all bent out of shape that being Mr Right-Now isn't good enough for him. So obviously Eric is supposed to conform to Donna's needs, wants and demands, and who cares if Eric benefits, or his aspirations and goals are met.
But it does fit into the previous shows where Donna has repeatedly expressed her desperation to get out of town and out into the world because she's been taught to think that the good life can only happen "out there". Donna repeatedly talks about how the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment) will set women free. Because "patriarchy". Or some such sh t.
And that's why I gave the show 1 star. They did such a dam good job on so much of the show, but they had to incessantly step all over the boys to make the girls look better and I'm not going to reward that with a good rating.
