Members KMan101 Posted August 29, 2022 Members Share Posted August 29, 2022 They never used him anyway, which is a massive shame. I still hate they ignore Andy. I can kind of understand it from a packed canvas type of deal but they're missing beats that could realistically have been played. I'd rather they ignore Jerry (which they seem to anyway). It's a bizarre choice. One hand understands it, the other doesn't. I agree with John that Andy could have died (but they had to deal with Mark Sr.'s death as well as Roseanne's, to be fair) and Jackie 'erased' him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted August 30, 2022 Members Share Posted August 30, 2022 Unfortunately Fishman as an adult actor had zero comedic chops. There's no need for DJ to be around or his dull daughter. There are too many characters as it is. Just have DJ and family move away. The sassy Christian wife was a poorly conceived character also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 8, 2022 Members Share Posted September 8, 2022 Watching this old Roseanne interview (or what was there of it, anyway) I'm reminded of why she was so popular in those early years, in spite of all the endless tabloid publicity. It's a powerful interview. I'm so sorry about where she ended up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 8, 2022 Members Share Posted September 8, 2022 (edited) Apparently he's going to go visit his wife on her tour of duty overseas (who I guess guested last season). They've indicated they'll still weave him in for guest spots but he was basically recurring anyway, and I haven't watched regularly in several seasons - I do intend to catch up someday, but Disney/Hulu makes it hard when they remove past seasons. It's pretty wild it's had what seems to be a strong, long run. It is nice if jolting to see Dan and Louise/Katey Sagal, Darlene and Ben (who I always liked) and Jackie and her new beau who I'm unfamiliar with all married. And I think Becky back to college.

Members dragonflies Posted September 22, 2022 Author Members Share Posted September 22, 2022 Anyone watch? They FINALLY updated the opening! Not a bad episode, just get tired of them ragging on Jackie all the time though to be honest 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted September 22, 2022 Members Share Posted September 22, 2022 I miss the cool character of Jackie. I forgot which season she started acting all "bafoony". I was hoping we'd get the ol' Jackie back for the reprisal, but nope. Then there was an episode where Jackie was imitating herself to be a bird to get some whipped cream. Oy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted September 22, 2022 Members Share Posted September 22, 2022 Agreed. It started season 7 (post-baby). I later read she actually contacted Don Knotts to get tips for the later seasons. Oy, indeed. No wonder Roseanne makes a Barney Fife reference in season 8. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Noel Posted September 22, 2022 Members Share Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Yeah, to me, the character of Jackie was a very relatable character. I still watch 'The Conners', but it's missing something. It's missing a leading actress and Sara Gilbert (as much as I like her) ain't it. Jackie used to be a cool aunt, and in a way, she kind of guided Roseanne's kids to a certain extent. Instead, it's like Roseanne's kids look at her as a dope. That's not who Jackie was, or at least, that's not how I remember her. I think I started "tuning out" of Roseanne when they all went to Disneyworld. I think post-trip Disneyworld, I wasn't as invested in the show. As far as the 'The Conners', I like their take on current social issues, but sometimes, it's too much to cram into a 30-minute comedy. And I don't like how everything is about Darlene. Do I want Roseanne Barr back? No. That woman is absolutely insane in the membrane. Has nothing to do with politics at all. It's all about being a decent human being. Edited September 22, 2022 by Noel 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 22, 2022 Members Share Posted September 22, 2022 Shorter opening, but cute. I'm a little surprised Katey Sagal isn't in there - Louise is now married to Dan, right? I guess she's still technically recurring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
