‘That ‘70s Show’ Stars Ashton Kutcher and Danny Masterson Will Reunite on Netflix's New Comedy Series
In what appears to be a classic reunion from two old friends who co-starred roles in "That '70s Show," Ashton Kutcher ("Two and a Half Men") and Danny Masterson will reunite on Netflix.
The duo are slated to star on "The Ranch," which as been created by Kutcher's "Two and a Half Men" showrunners Don Reo and Jim Patterson, according to Deadline.
This multi-camera comedy joins forces with other Netflix originals comedies like "Grace and Frankie" and "Orange Is the New Black," which stars another "That '70s Show" alum, Laura Prepon.
"The Ranch" is a sibling comedy, apparently with Kutcher and Masterson being brothers, that takes place in Colorado. Kutcher plays an ex semi-pro football player who returns home to run the family business with his brother.
This new series is taking a different approach than the other current Netflix originals, debuting 10 episodes initially for the first half of the first season, then 10 more for the second half will debut later in the year. This is a return to the old broadcast networks' standard formula, which generally produced 22 episodes a season for their shows and spread them out throughout the TV season.
This new approach departs from Netflix's usual 13-episode order of a TV series season, which has been used for other originals like "Orange Is the New Black," "House of Cards," "Hemlock Grove," "Grace and Frankie," "Daredevil" and "Bloodline."
Masterson and Kutcher have both also signed on as producers for the show.
According to E! News, Masterson has lately been on TBS's "Men at Work," "Royal Pains" and "Haven." He has also done a few feature films, one of which includes "Dracula 2000" by Wes Craven.
"The Ranch" is slated to debut on Netflix in 2016, but no specific date has been announced yet.
