This Scene Completely Changed How I Watch Sitcoms (Roseanne)
Like most sitcoms, Roseanne is filled to the brim with jokes. Yet, it still managed to tell deep, realistic, dramatic stories. Let’s talk about that.

Darlene showing up to bail him out is one of the top 3 scenes of the Whole Series.
#2: Darlene explaining Becky farting in front of the whole school
#3: Darlene describing breakfast to hungover Becky

I thought Roseanne was an amazing, real life portrayal of the working poor in America. Using humor was a coping mechanism that made the hardships more palatable. I loved it growing up! Wish she hadn't gone nuts:/

The way Dan leaves and getting his coat, was a great sitcom moment.

I'm watching this video on Nebula but came here to about to this episode on my occasional rematch of the series….one of the best episodes of the best sitcom of all time. Great analysis!

People should go watch the Chicken Hearts episode – where Roseanne’s younger Boss comes over for dinner so Roseanne can try to get weekends off, even has Dan fix a carburetor for his auto class. At the end, he fires her, and Dan proceeds to take apart the carburetor fully. So awesome
@theSuperviLLain_est

Let me be clear – Roseanne is the greatest sitcom ever. It’s not even close. Not. Even. Close.

The character on this show was basically my mother. Grew up in the same time and place. I will always regret that the real Roseanne lost her mind later in life.

Roseanne definitely gave Dan to look but it's okay handle it then. Only thing that upsets me is when Roseanne came back out they kicked her off the show.. which was going to be a phenomenal show again

Why did this not show him getting arrested by friendly cops? Roseanne trying to intervene and Dan establishing that what happened was just between him and Fisher and no one else, because Jackie didn’t want anyone to know while she was still a cadet for the police academy. He just stood up and put his hands together. Most badass scene in sitcom tv because it was so on point and stoic!

I watched this episode when I was like 13 I forgot all about the Jackie plotline but after I saw the darline and dj book It all flooded back

Roseanne Barr’s behavior aside, Roseanne was a fantastic sitcom that really showed the struggles of the working poor with a sense of humor.

I don't know how accurate this is, but just like you can when John Schwartzwelder wrote a classic Simpsons one-liners, I can feel Norm MacDonald in Rosanne's soul

Only ignorant mfers dislike Rosanne for standing for what she believes in. Simply because they disagree

The episode where DJ is spending A LOT of time in the bathroom 😉😉
Roseanne tells Darlene to not tease him about it or he will turn into a serial killer. Darlene says “ how much damage could he do with one free hand”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 GOLD PURE GOLD!!!!

Great video ! The first 5 season of Roseanne were really wonderful.
Check “the golden girls” the episode where Sophia’s son dies. Drama & comedy mixed in a genius way… with great acting !!!

I have always hated FRiends, what is the appeal?
I am mid 60s & there is 4 comedy series from my lifetime that I have always loved, admired & never tire of rewatching.
MASH, Roseanne, Scrubs & Veep. Doesn't matter that Roseanne went gaga & is a punchline today. Her show, her writing & her "family" was absolutely perfect.

had john goodman already played frd flintstone at this time? wondering if Roseanne was ribbing him lol

Actually shows like Roseanne and cheers were filmed in front of a live studio audience they ran multiple cameras simultaneously so that they could cut between them without any interruption in the sound of the laugh from the audience

I used to love this show back in the day! Roseanne is a goddess, let her do whatever she wants. Lol!

Back in the day, Roseanne was great! then they did the reboot and then got rid of Roseanne which tanked the show.

Good video. I really enjoyed your take. For another great show that balances drama and comedy, then give MASH a try. The later seasons.

This is very thoughtful commentary. I agree Roseanne is very well written.

I remember my Aunt coming to our house one summer day. She hid in our bathroom and was crying. I was about 6 and didn't understand. My Uncle showed up and was banging on our front door. My mom talked him down and he left. She never did leave him. He ended up dying of cancer. The truth came out after his death. If my aunt wanted to leave, my family would of taken care of it. Sometimes real life isn't as clean as a tv show. In some ways that is why I like shows.

She was cancelled for a Hitler joke. Ironically the same joke would be praised by leftards right now.
