<P> The eighth season was announced as the final season of the show on January 17, 2006, and "That' 70s Finale" was filmed a month later on February 17, 2006, first airing on May 18, 2006 . </P> <P> The show usually opens with the theme song, "In the Street", written by Alex Chilton and Chris Bell of the band Big Star . The original version of the song appeared on Big Star's 1972 debut album #1 Record . In 2000, Chilton confirmed that he was paid $70 in royalties each time the show aired, an amount he thought ironic, given the show's title . </P> <P> Big Star's original version of the song was not used on the show . Instead, a cover version sung by Todd Griffin was used as the theme song for the show's first season . Beginning in the second season, the theme song was performed by the band Cheap Trick . Unlike previous versions of the song, Cheap Trick ended the song with the repeated phrase "We're all alright!" quoting the ending of their 1978 hit song "Surrender". </P> <P> Both versions of the song used on the show end with somebody yelling "Hello, Wisconsin!" In Griffin's version, Masterson is the one yelling "Hello, Wisconsin!" while it is unknown who yells it in Cheap Trick's version during the opening . On the soundtrack, That' 70s Album (Rockin'), Cheap Trick's lead singer Robin Zander yells "Hello, Wisconsin!" Alternate holiday versions of the theme song were arranged for Halloween and Christmas specials, using organ music and bells, respectively . </P>
