Next up: 'That 80s Show'

The creators of "That 70s Show" are jumping a whole decade ahead for their next project.

The Hollywood Reporter said Fox TV has given a 13-episode commitment for the unnamed series, which is set in the 1980s.

Although details of the series were vague, the new show will be an ensemble piece lampooning the Reagan administration years, and will not be a spin-off from "That 70s Show," the report said.

The series will be produced by Carsey Werner Mandabach and will be developed by "That 70s Show" creators Mark Brazil and Bonny and Terry Turner and executive producer Linda Wallem, the report said.

No casting has been mentioned yet. The show is targeted as either a mid-season replacement or a debut for the fall 2002 season.
