The writers' strike, followed by the SAG-AFTRA actors' strike, pushed back filming dates, leaving the series in a standstill. However, with both strikes resolved by November 8, production was swiftly scheduled to start in December 2023. The resilience and solidarity shown by the cast, some of whom were seen supporting the strikes, have only added to the anticipation for the new season.

The resumption of production was officially announced with filming dates set for December 1, 8, and 15, as per 1iota's website. These tapings, open to fans via ticket requests, signify the show's return to its live audience format, capturing the spontaneity and energy that have become a hallmark of the series. With 16 episodes confirmed for Season 2, the show promises more depth, laughter, and '90s nostalgia.
Looking Forward to Summer 2024
Netflix has revealed that "That ’90s Show" Season 2 will premiere in the summer of 2024.
