“We’re pushing 20 episodes a season [on NCIS], but at the same time, it’s the kids’ jobs,” Wilmer continued, referring to the young cast of That ’90s Show.

“This is their show now, and I think it was important that we came and pay respect to their show and have fun with the legacy of what we did,” Wilmer added. “At the same time, it was really about, you know, now seeing them take it over.”

Wilmer also said that he’s “very proud” of the new cast.

“That whole cast has been great and the show is awesome,” Wilmer shared. “I was very proud to relive it, but also even more excited to see the kids take it from here.”
