Roseanne

I am enjoying this continuation. Tonite's episode was pretty darn good IMO, I love seeing the dynamic of 3 generations interacting.

I love it too. like I mentioned in another post - the laugh track is terrible but like another poster said - maybe we're just not used to laugh tracks much anymore.

Jackie and Roseanne are fabulous.  Jackie is just like her mother

MAN this is great, last night's show is generating quite the conversations. I follow the Roseanne thread on Previously TV's site, and everyone is going back and forth on the sink scene. Love it!

(My 2 cents - harmless. You have people over there bantering the term 'corporal punishment' - that is by NO means corporal punishment, getting your hair showered in a sink. It was meant to embarrass Harris, which it did, with no harm done. I see ZERO wrong with that.)

My wife watches it and told me that the two actresses who played the daughter are in it, one as a surrogate for the other and they commented on how they look alike.  I got a chuckle out of that.

This weeks episode was much better, The Chair

and Dan taking her picture on it!!

lol I am not a tough love giver, its something I have had to work on very hard and its very stressful for me, but I would have done the same thing if my teenage granddaughter talked to me like that

I've learned to be a tough love giver - Mia (new pet cat) is constantly wanting to be in my lap while I'm at my PC, so I keep having to move her to a different seat. I KNOW I KNOW, that's a contentious step I'm taking, but dammit I'm firm in my resolve.

good luck with that cats do the fuck they want

MAN, I had to bail on the Roseanne thread on PreviouslyTV. Such an uproar over something so minor, people are now quoting news sites in support of this "unreasonable behavior". I knew people nowadays are more delicate, but MAN I did not realize it was this level of bubble protection. My school days would have horrified them to no end (and yes granted I'm now a serial killer, but that has no bearing here nor there.)
I'm tempted to start a parenting thread to compare NOW vs THEN and the merits of both.

ah ok, i went back to it....and my post got removed. OOPSIE. I crossed the nice PC line I guess. I could scream censorship yada yada but eh I was kinda asking for it. I hope a few people got to see my snark at least.

now for my next devious scheme...

Disagree. I pretty much hated it. Like one long reminder of why I generally despise sitcoms.

There isn't much I find funny anymore. Roseanne lands squarely in that territory. I think a sitcom which is nothing but people falling down and having accidents might possibly make me giggle a bit.

I enjoyed this last episode with David.

I never watched the first go around certainly not going to watch the second
