I suppose he could just interact with Dan as described in the article, with Mark's problems with him leading up to Dan confronting Lou merely being referenced, but I, too, figure we'll see Mark. On general principle, plus, it has been a little bit, so it's time. And, while this isn't always accurate in advance, the IMDb page for that episode indeed includes Aames McNamara. I wish the return of Lou would also mean the return of Bev, since she's how he was initially introduced (as the "very old guy" Bev was having sex with at Becky's apartment in the revival season of Roseanne; Bev got kicked out of her retirement home for spreading gonorrhea, neither Roseanne nor Jackie wanted her, Becky was appalled and took her in, but quickly got freaked out), but it's highly unlikely they're still involved all this time later. And, fundamentally, I imagine Estelle Parsons is still quite wisely opting not to spend prolonged indoor time with groups of people; she's only appeared via video call since the pandemic began. And just once, at that, in a disappointing moment where it was great to see the actor again, but the character wasn't written with the right nuance (the episode where Jackie goes on Jeopardy!); Bev could teach master classes in passive-aggressive behavior, yet in that scene she was just aggressive. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/71734-media-the-lanford-lean-times/page/10/#findComment-7415282

Bastet April 29, 2022 Share April 29, 2022 (edited) Three ring circus implies three engagements, which would be out-of-the-blue ridiculous for all three couples, yet I would not put it past these fools on the writing staff. Jackie and Neville could make sense if we'd actually seen enough of their relationship to know they're at that place now -- or remotely care. Harris carrying on the family tradition of getting married way too young, and in this case also signing up to be stepmom to a couple of deeply damaged kids, I can't argue is unrealistic, because she's been a really stupid person when it comes to romantic relationships all along. But I'd still object on the basis they are not going to do that story justice. Remember Dan's sheer anguish when Becky eloped with Mark and he had to acknowledge he and Roseanne had no choice but to let this play out? "She's gonna get pregnant, she's going to forget all about school -- this is it, this is her life!" We wouldn't get any of that from Darlene, because Darlene can only spare about five minutes at a time to remember she's a parent, before she gets back to her own ridiculous love life. Good gods, they'll never let any of these relationships go. They finally quit teasing the possibility of Darlene and David getting back together, despite the complete lack of sense in that, only because they knew they weren't going to get Johnny Galecki again any time soon. Now they're paying Jay R. Ferguson, and like him, so they keep Ben around even though that relationship ran its course, too. And, fundamentally, they don't even understand what show they're writing. This is a family sitcom, yet they spend more time on the family members' various romantic relationships with all these outside characters than they do on the relationships within the family. Yes, dating is part of the Conners' lives, but come on -- there's work, and school, and living with a family you love who drive you crazy. Why is it that every time they need to think of a new storyline for the female members of the family, they go for a new (or go back to an old) romance? Hopefully it's something better than it sounds and I'm just sitting here frothing at the mouth for no reason.

Bastet May 31, 2022 Share May 31, 2022 Ugh, sounds like Louise is going to bug me next season. She knowingly married into a multigenerational living situation, and now that all but ONE person is out of the house, she's still complaining? If Harris wants to live with Dan rather than the rest of her family (and I would too!), and he's happy to have her there, Louise needs to deal. How much can one young adult who has a job really be infringing on their privacy? Louise is an I can take her or leave her character, so I'm not emotionally invested in her, but I'm disappointed in how they've written her ever since the wedding. I also don't see Jackie as being as prone to self-sabotage as they do. Or Becky as still drifting as much as they keep wanting her to be. Basically, this crop of writers can't write for shit when it comes to women. And that's a bitterly disappointing follow-up to a feminist show. 1 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/71734-media-the-lanford-lean-times/page/10/#findComment-7484337
