No. The way I phrased it is a bit of a trick question. (That's a hint haha).

Is Jackie home from her date yet? Threaten Darlene's life I think. Which apartment number does Jackie live in for the first 4 seasons?

I'm reviewing episodes from that time rn lol. Peaches might be right that she went back there after being a police woman too.

Perfume sniper! Good one. I don't think Jackie working at Lobo was shown but it was mentioned a couple times in dialogue. The second season Thanksgiving ep before she told her parents about becoming a police woman Bev starts into a big speech at the dinner table. She says something about Jackie wasting her life away waiting tables at a bar. There is another scene somewhere where Roseanne references Jackie working at the Lobo. Was inbetween Wellman and police. Edit: I went back to the Thanksgiving ep. The quote from Bev was "If you want to waste your life living alone and working at a bar...".

The B story with the dog should have been scrapped. I can't believe noone realized that the animal shelter totally DID NOT work. The A story was pretty weak too. In the first 5 minutes we know Becky can't have kids and the surrogacy story is dead. Then the last acts are just Becky and Darlene at the Mexican restaurant and that seemed incredibly slow paced. Perfect chance to explain Mark's death, but no. 4 episodes in and they've run out of material.

Hmm that's a tough one. Do volunteer positions count? Lol. Wellman Lobo Police woman Lanford community theatre Sent away to be a massage therapist but never actually did it Truck driver Lunchbox Buy n Bag? Continuing the theme, what jobs did Dan have?

I almost think they aren't mentioning characters because they aren't sure if they are going to appear at some later point (ie next season). Maybe they want Ned Beatty to come back but they aren't sure if he will so they won't commit to say if his character is dead or not. Same with Andy. Maybe they want to leave his character open for future development so they aren't specifying right now.

E is for episiotomy Something Roseanne wanted to share with Dan...

Ding ding ding!

Or that that shelter worker wouldn't really call the police when they stole it...

Me too. I feel whoever is writing for the show is familiar with the concept of Roseanne but not with the "canon" of Roseanne like they are writing based on the pop culture conceptions of Roseanne but they never put in the time to actually watch the entire series. They are missing the easy callbacks to the original which really angers me. In the opening DJ and his daughter come out of the basement door. Simple answer: they don't have anything for them to do. In Fuller House they dispensed with most of the original cast and they only do cameos. The new kids get more focus because Kimmy/Steph/DJ are the only regulars. With Roseanne, the show is named after her so the show has to still mainly revolve around her. Involving her also means involving Jackie and Dan. Darlene and Becky have main characters too so there's no time for DJ or Darlenes kids. I really hope for ONE EPISODE they have a pre title scene where Sarah reprises her role as Becky and Roseanne is like "aren't you that Andrea chick?" and she replies "No mother, I'm your daughter Becky... Don't you recognize me?" Sadly I don't think the revival is wlling to be as self mocking as the original.

I don't know if I agree with that. Sarah's Becky did work at Buns but that was for a purpose. She was very strong willed in thinking she would work there to put Mark through college and then when Mark had a good job it would be her time for college. Lecy's Becky is the one that lost all ambition IMO. She didn't care about anything besides running away with Mark and getting married.

Yes, by that logic all quotes from the tv show are off limits for thread titles. We should change the Jackie thread title too because we all know now that she didn't actually grow up to be Gilligan.

I thought it was really weird that Jackie took Becky to the obgyn and she never tried to impart her childbirth experience on her. The old Jackie would have been like "WELL, when I was pregnant..."

But that is your brother's wife... You are only related to her by marriage. When speaking to you, does he say "remember when my father did this..." or does he say "remember when dad did that...?

I was thinking during the episode "Why didn't they just have Becky work at the Lobo?". I saw something on Youtube where Lecy talked about the Lobo and seemed to foreshadow that the show would be returning there. The Mexican restaurant seems so sitcomy and cliched. They only did it to have a "colourful" location and to get in some cheap Mexican jokes. It's like the Faberge egg. It's the whackiest, stupidest, most unrealistic thing that Andrea would ever give Becky, but it gave Jackie that line mispronouncing it.

I thought they missed an obvious connection to that episode. Roseanne made DJ get rid of it because it was a lot of work to have a dog and etc. She never said anything about him being allergic to it.

Incorrect. The question remains open. What song did Jackie, Crystal and Roseanne sing (badly) when Dan danced with Darlene in the living room?

This one is a bit of a stretch but... X is for Xanadu. The basis for the joke when Roseanne welcomes David to Roseannadu.

I thought it was Dwight? And he owned a hardware store? What song did Jackie, Crystal and Roseanne sing (badly) when Dan danced with Darlene in the living room?

Oh I thought there were 2 different threads about DJ... I liked it the way it was before too.

V is for Vicki Lawrence who played Phyllis Zimmer.

In the first 4 seasons Roseanne acted like a mom. That was good enough for me.

Some of the Qs are getting really hard. I went back to find that song but it's incredibly quiet and most of it is covered up by dialogue/the laugh track. Plus I've never heard that song in my life which made it more difficult lol.

They should have made DJ a millenial who never moved out of the basement. Keep him as a weirdo. I'm sure if they went this way he'd be given a lot more to do than his current storyline of being in the army and being awkward af...
