Members Gray Bunny Posted April 26, 2010 Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 He's busy romancing Erika Slezak on OLTL these days Ironically, I'm watching it on TV Land right now, and it's the episode where Jackie falls down a flight of stairs with a naked guy, getting injured, and her and Gary break up. Irony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted April 26, 2010 Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 Ah, gotta love the 90's... reminds me of when it was a big deal that they insinuated a gay kiss on Melrose Place between Matt and a guy. They didn't even show it either yet they made a big stink about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted April 26, 2010 Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 Brian Kerwin's aged well, IMO. He's aged naturally, not in the Hollywood style. He looks better than most 60-year-olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 26, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 Darlene was one of those rare sitcom children that was so relatable and authentic. I was exactly the same way when I was a teen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 26, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 Oh, and I absolutely loved how they would always acknowledge the two different Becky's on the show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtJCDMaaTiA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B10IUzsOR6g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted April 26, 2010 Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 I loved Roseanne up until she had plastic surgery in real life. At that point, the humanity was sucked out of the show seemingly overnight, and it became ultra-bitter, elitist, and mean. It turned into a giant Roseanne ego trip. The early seasons had a homey warmth to them, a goofy but realistic charm, and were played out very sympathetically. I loved it for that reason.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 26, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 I think seasons 4, 5, and 6 were the show's creative zenith, ESPECIALLY season 5. Then again, most sitcoms only have a shelf life of about 5 or 6 seasons before they get stale. But I thought the middle seasons were a perfect combination of the show in its beginning years with subtle hints of what it was in the latter years. Season 5, IMO, was just the creative peak. Looking back, I can see why Roseanne didn't much care for season one and wanted more creative control (which she got). Season one is so vastly different from the other seasons in tone, barring season 9 of course. In that first season, the show was a little more traditional, though Roseanne's trademark spunk was still apparent. Interestingly, I think the show was at its best without the Becky character. Those early seasons really focused a lot on Roseanne's clashes with Becky, but when Lecy Goroason went off to college, it forced the writers to give Sara Gilbert's Darlene a much bigger role on the show, which turned out for the best. Darlene was just the funniest of the bunch, and the one most like Roseanne. I did NOT like Sarah Chalke's Becky, the character became an airhead and Chakle was a horrible actress back then, IMO. It seemed like she was just randomly walking into scenes and would yell all her lines and then leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members koos Posted April 26, 2010 Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 I loved it when Joss Whedon was writing episodes. =) Season 5 was when Roseanne opened the restaurant, which I hated. There were some good moments in that season, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 26, 2010 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 I didn't mind The Lunch Box, Roseanne and Jackie had so many jobs in those first couple of seasons, it was hard to keep track of what they was doing. It was nice to see them in a stable place job-wise. Though, I did like her and Bonnie at that mall cafe they worked at in season 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted April 26, 2010 Members Share Posted April 26, 2010 I loved the recast Becky. I loved how towards the end the show really didnt care and had them both playing her at the same time! It would be so fun if other shows did that.
