Yeah but they're acting like it was all him. They basically said he took the money Roseanne and Dan sent Becky. Did that happen? I Can't remember

 

I'm no Mark fan, but they're acting like he was a major villain. Dan even says "it took 25 years but I got Becky to blame Mark for all her problems"

From what I recall, Dan and Roseanne gave Becky money to go back to school...and she instead enrolled Mark in school.  And he failed out of school and wouldn't go back.

 

Ever since season 1 of OG Roseanne, Becky always was drawn to the bad boy and was willing to do anything to be with him (remember how she snuck out in season 1 in 8th grade for a guy?).

It was always established in the original show that Becky excelled in school and was popular. Basically that she had a strong future ahead of her, but when she eloped with Mark, she threw all that potential away to be with him. Thus her life was never able to be what it could have been.

 

Part of why she eloped with Mark in the first place was because she was pissed that Dan and Roseanne didn’t have enough money to send her to college.

    • the tweet linked to https://www.forbes.com/sites/marcberman1/2025/05/02/ruth-buzzi-dies-the-rowan--martin-laugh-in-star-was-88/ That Forbes account of Ruth Buzzi said she'd had Alzheimer's for 10 years? -- they are quoting her facebook as saying that. But her facebook says this: Ruth Buzzi  July 24, 1936 – May 1, 2025 Ruth Buzzi died peacefully in her sleep at home in Texas. She was in hospice care for several years with Alzheimer’s disease. Memorial arrangements by Lacy Funeral Home, Stephenville, Texas to be announced. Her family requests donating to Alzheimer’s research (www.alz.org) in lieu of flowers. https://www.facebook.com/RealRuthBuzzi/posts/pfbid031y2oHoqXMuMCSZg1RToxEVH37UZCvGmrp6JhGBQXoGCv3X6mwouwxATxHF5PtvTJl  But she was tweeting a couple of years ago...  There's more info on @slick jones page here https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/55788-soap-hoppers-the-soap-actors-and-roles-thread/page/380/#comment-1869080 A few hours before her death was announced, her husband posted onto her facebook this: https://www.facebook.com/RealRuthBuzzi/posts/pfbid02hxSLCXSKM62DHE72RFXeY8s8M4PXeAcDJGkhfnTLKVNVpZqSYmAREpr7W7RgDhUzl This is Ruth Buzzi‘s husband writing on her page.  She asked me to thank all of you for being so good to her for so many years.  She wants you to know she probably had more fun doing those shows than you had watching them.    Because of health issues, she’s must withdraw from writing, but she will still be reading and enjoying your posts.   If you've met Ruthie and had a picture taken with her, please post it below.   If you have a great memory from her career that you enjoyed — a special comedy sketch, or a moment that made you laugh — share that with us. Ruthie loves you. --------------

    • I feel like the show has been like this for the past 15 or more years, IMO. Things happen but there are never or RARELY any long-term impacts. Instead, everything (characters, history) is just reset to what it was before. In a couple of months, Hope will be working at Forrester again. No one will ever mention the takeover. Brooke and Ridge will be back together for the millionth time, etc etc.  It's hard to get invested in a story when you know this is how the show works.
    • Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission. Also, Naomi and Jacob weren't there as well. I know some of this is probably budget, but it seems like there could be a way to still have them all there.
    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube.
