For Cereals January 28, 2018 Share January 28, 2018 On 7/5/2017 at 11:23 AM, TheLastKidPicked said: Remember that historically, family comedies were even made to "Improve on Reality" and to provide "Moral Instruction" to us. And along comes Roseanne, who wants to give a voice for people where jobs aren't perfect, parents aren't perfect, and kids aren't perfect. But they love each other and get through it with grace and humor. It ran against the theme of all the hit family shows at the time. No matter how good the revival might be, they can never recreate the background of when the show debut in 1988. Those of you old enough to remember know what a big event it was at the time. This is why I loved the show then. It wasn’t the Cosby’s even though I loved that show. Their family was very much like people I grew up with. It was matter of fact and not overly sweet. However, to me, it’s a little depressing to come back now if nothing has changed. Same house, same couch, same bad decisions, their kids potentially repeating the same mistakes. While I hated the last couple of lottery seasons and don’t want to go back there, I was still rooting for the family to move up on and on at least a little—maybe they started listening to Dave Ramsey and got out of debt and don’t think they need a new couch or flooring, or wallpaper...I’ll watch, but I don’t know if I can stick around for a Middle Class Elegy. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4006551

Very interesting that you posted this, as we were discussing that very thing while watching the reruns. There are things that make for great comedy in your thirties, but are just depressing in your seventies. Scraping by with cars that break down, having your electicity shut off, and being turned down for a loan are a few examples that were opportunity for comedy while the family was young, but would just be depressing now that they are older. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4008914

Bastet February 16, 2018 Share February 16, 2018 The ABC special about the revival was rather joyful; there was nothing new learned (except confirmation D.J. has married Gina, the girl he wouldn't kiss in the play) and nothing old revealed for the first time, but it still left me giddy with anticipation. I loved all the behind the scenes glimpses, the old table reads maybe as much as the new ones. Their reactions to the rebuilt set were terrific. I love everyone wanting the chicken shirt and the afghan to reappear. I’m excited by both, plus the Godzilla. Add in corn, and I’m good. The Roseanne Barr/Matt Williams conflict is one for the ages, and I think Marcy Carsey (inspiration for Kathy Bowman) – who, by all accounts from those I know working in TV at that time, tries to play both sides to create good product, but who is also quite duplicitous - was somewhat the root of it. I’ve always loved this recounting of Barr’s side of things. I’ve also always loved - well, hated, but loved being revealed - the story of when Roseanne got the chocolate number one, as opposed to the huge rewards men got for the same triumph, so I liked that coming up again. Saying the final season was a story is wrong, though; the whole series was a book – some of which was directly copied from real life, some of which was entirely fictional, and some of which was a slightly-altered version of reality. I think this means, especially since we already know Dan is alive in the revival, they’re going to play seasons eight and nine (and somehow only season nine gets mentioned in such scenarios, but Darlene’s wedding, at which Dan had the heart attack that either killed him or didn't, was not the end of season eight, but a few episodes before) as the book that they dismiss via whatever storyline they come up with, and in the grand scheme of things – even though I’m one of three fans who liked the “it was all a book” revelation – I’m fine with that, but I’m still a little grumbly at the misrepresentation. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4064880

That poor girl didn't even get a year on the show, but only one episode. She was probably just a fill in because Bonnie Sheridan/Bramlett wasn't available at the time. It's like in season 4 with Sandra Bernhard. There's a couple episodes where they mention Nancy but she isn't shown (the Halloween ep in particular). She finally appears in the Vegas Vegas episode. They obviously knew they were introducing her at the beginning of the season because Arnie's previous girlfriend's name was Sharon so they created a brand new character for Sandra. I always just figured Sandra wasn't available until a bit later so they didn't introduce her right away. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4065370

But yeah - rant aside - I think if they address it at all it's going to be the "I'm a writer I took poetic license and fictionalized our lives" route. I liked the 20/20 show. When they talked about casting they didn't mention the original DJ; Sal Barone. Guess they figured it wasn't important to the history of the show. He was in the original pilot but let go because he couldn't get along with Sarah Gilbert and when the writers strike delayed the show he grew too much during the delay. Also no mention of Glenn Quinn; they didn't have to reveal how they'll resolve having no Mark on the show but it would have been nice to acknowledge him a little bit. And no mention of casting Jerry or Andy. Rumor is Jerry is mentioned at some point and is working out of state, possibly Alaska. I guess though with only 9 episodes they can only cover so much. The one thing that made me curious - showing the cast on set during the special the stairs were normal. The same set behind Joy Behar had one of those electric stair seats installed; really wondering if that's part of the show and who it's going to be for (Beverly maybe?)

Agree with other posters that JG is one of those people who look better a little overweight....Al Roker too. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4067250

Seeing the set almost identical was a bit disappointing. I was hoping that there would have been one or two updates of the set, even if it had been a new furniture set or a few small updates to the kitchen. I was surprised to see the old phone still on the wall. It just seemed strange in today’s modern cell phone age. It looked like the sofa may have been different, but I agree about other parts of the house. Although my grandmothers house was probably 60+plus years old when she died and the kitchen and the bathroom had never been remodeled or changed in all of that time. Most of her furniture was also from back in the '70s if not older. She died about 4 years ago and her house looked like it was caught in a time warp. I also wondered why they didn't talk about some of the cast members, like Crystal because she was a regular throughout the show, and I wonder if it means Chuck will be back since he was interviewed? 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4067252

A lot of people of Roseanne and Dan's generation refuse to get cell phones. And if the old phone still works, I can see them keeping it. 19 minutes ago, Tenarife60 said: I also wondered why they didn't talk about some of the cast members, like Crystal because she was a regular throughout the show, and I wonder if it means Chuck will be back since he was interviewed? I've heard that both Chuck and Crystal will be back. James Pickens Jr was interviewed because he's on one of ABC's biggest moneymakers, Grey's Anatomy. The 20/20 special was trying to emphasize all the great things Roseanne actors have gone on to do. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4067296

Them having them has it’s downsides, though. For instance, even though I’m in my thirties, it terrifies my mom that I live in Philadelphia and it makes her feel better to be able to get ahold of me whenever anything negative happens within 30 square miles of the city. =) They still have their landline though, and I doubt they’ll ever get rid of it even though the only people who call that line are telemarketers. 54 minutes ago, Bastet said: Chuck (and Anne Marie) and Crystal will be appearing for at least one episode. Yay!!! So excited to see Chuck and Anne Marie again!! James Pickens Jr. reprised his old role on the new X-Files season as well, and since I was unspoiled it was a great surprise. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/56811-roseanne-revival/page/9/#findComment-4067955

That explains why Chief Webber seemed to be a bit absent this season on Grey's! James Pickens Jr is a busy man.
