Man, John Goodman looks so very different.  I literally gasped when I saw the photos.

 

From reading the story, you could tell how much they still miss Roseanne and wish things hadn't turned out as they did.  In a way, my heart breaks for them, because they were still on a high from how successful the first new season had been for them.  But they're right: let's give the rest of the cast a chance to continue or finish these characters' stories on their terms.

 

I'm in.

Not only were John Goodman and Kathleen Turner in the @MSUTheatreDance production of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM, which opened 45 years ago today, the list of people involved is a veritable Who’s Who of 1970s SMSU Theatre.https://t.co/7na1TXrKh7

Hopefully Darlene and David never reunite, it was a mistake to marry them off when Darlene was better off without that noose around her neck.  Juliette Lewis... I'm in

  When I was thinking of possible people to play Blue, she popped in my head LOL

Finally wrapping up Season 10 - the Bev episode has maybe Jackie and Bev's only candid conversation in I don't know how many years. Jackie admitting she loves her was big.

 

The Mark subplot was really sweet. That kid is a gem and I'm glad we'll get to see him, Darlene and Dan continue together.

 

Becky turning on Bev in hours was great, explaining how quickly Bev and beau Christopher Lloyd moved to having sex in her apartment - 'it's four o'clock!' 'yeah, they went to dinner, came back and started doin' it!'

 

I'm just really glad this cast and crew get to continue. I hope the quality continues to build. It may be a debacle, who knows.

I think there’s a good chance this year. Last year’s 9 episode arc aired in April and May so it wouldn’t have made sense. 

 

One promo shows Jackie and Darlene discussing upcoming holiday plans. “We’ll do what we always do. Spend everything on Halloween and have nothing to be thankful for or buy presents with.”

    • Billy just showed up for Vanessa's memorial (Sept 9, '96), which is so nice!  My first time seeing him like this outside of random clips from the past. He's out of jail for 24 hours, so not long. It's good to see him with the family.
    • Definitely was more recent than not; when the set originally returned, the change hadn't happened.
    • It was nice seeing Victorias house and I see it’s been remodelled. I’m sure this happened awhile ago but since I tuned out from the show for so long I am only noticing it now. Looks beautiful though!  Also, Billy and Sally gross me out so much. I don’t know what it is I hate so much about them. They give me the ick. Definitely a mismatch. I don’t buy that these people would be attracted to eachother in real life much less have a relationship..

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
