Josh Meyers has had a fairly lucrative career since his "That '70s Show" days. He's had parts in film and television, live-action and animated alike, so it doesn't seem as though the negative reaction to Randy hurt him all too bad. But still, it's not nice to read bad things about yourself, and Meyers knows exactly why people didn't like his turn on "That '70s Show."
He went on to say, "They were like, 'You stole Eric's girlfriend," and I was like, 'No, no, no, Topher Grace went to go be in 'Spider-Man 2' or '3.” I just got a job, like, Donna's not a real person. She's a character. But I was Donna's new boyfriend in that last season." It's honestly not fair to hold Meyers accountable for how poorly Randy was received. The character was doomed from the start. Audiences liked the dynamic between the original cast, so Randy butting in at the very end was always going to be a hard sale.
Meyers did his best with what he was given. And if "That '90s Show" is ever brave enough, they could bring Randy back for a redemption arc.
