As the decade draws to a close, the gang bids farewell to the ’70s and faces an uncertain future. While Donna gets over Eric with a little help from a new friend, Hyde gets hitched to a stripper! Jackie moves in with Fez, revealing some hidden assets, and the Formans confront an empty nest that’s not nearly empty enough for Red.
Put on your platforms and gather ’round the groove tube, people. It’s time to party like it’s 1979!”

I thought it was amusing that the back cover announced “special guest star Ashton Kutcher”. Didn’t this show launch his career? Anyway, here’s the final season to complete your DVD collection!

Their main competitors in the airborne adventure are the Chipettes – Brittany, Jeanette and Eleanor – but their real opponents turn out to be Klaus and Claudia, two conniving international crooks who have cooked up the “race” as a front for their worldwide diamond smuggling operation! Join the laughs, music and mayhem as the Chipmunks and the Chipettes take off on their hilarious high-flying adventure.”
