'That '70's Show' Stars to Reunite on NBC's ARE YOU THERE, CHELSEA?

As first reported on TVguide.com, stars from the hit show 'That '70's Show' will be reuniting for an upcoming episode of NBC's new comedy ARE YOU THERE, CHELSEA? The comedy's lead actress, Laura Prepon, will once again share the stage with former '70's co-star Wilmer Valderrama.  

Valderrama will make his guest appearance in the role of a minor league baseball player.  Explains Prepon, "Wilmer comes into the bar and totally throws me for a loop. We have a couple of kissing scenes, which was really weird for us."

The actress tells TV Guide that the cast of 'That 70's Show' has continued to remain very close. "When Kutch [Ashton Kutcher] started doing Two and a Half Men, I went to a couple of episodes to support him. He shoots on the next stage over from me, so I see him all the time," explained Prepon.  "Mila [Kunis], Topher [Grace], Danny [Masterson] and Wilmer all came to my set last week. We're family forever."

Inspired by the best-selling books from actress/comedian Chelsea Handler, "Are You There, Chelsea?" follows the exploits of the 20-something Chelsea (Prepon), an opinionated and unapologetic young woman who lives life to the fullest as a cocktail waitress, friend, daughter, sister and sexually dynamic "advanced drinker."

Chelsea's life revolves around her work at Jerry's Ultimate Sports Bar in New Jersey, where she is surrounded by an eclectic group of friends and co-workers, including: Rick (Jake McDorman, "Greek"), the handsome bartender; Olivia (Ali Wong, "Breaking In"), a fellow cocktail waitress and Chelsea's best friend since childhood; and, Todd (Mark Povinelli, "Water for Elephants"), the bar back who is always ready with a quick comeback. Chelsea and Olivia have recently moved in with Dee Dee (Lauren Lapkus, "The Middle"), a sweet and somewhat sheltered young woman who could be considered the polar opposite of Chelsea. And then there's Chelsea's dad, Melvin (Lenny Clarke, "Rescue Me"), a man with a big personality and a big heart… and all too often – a big mouth.

Chelsea Handler ("Chelsea Lately") has a recurring role as Chelsea's born-again Christian sister, Sloane, a married, conservative, new mom who has little in common with her carefree sister.
