Might you actually read my post before the snarky response? I acknowledge why many will not hlthe2b Mar 2018 #4

Roseanne was considered or is one of the greatest standups of all time, and LAURIE METCALF Eliot Rosewater Mar 2018 #26

I'll wait for the Laurie Metcalf spin-off. Baitball Blogger Mar 2018 #37

Confusing art with poltics. Doesnt matter what Laurie's character says or does or Eliot Rosewater Mar 2018 #38

greatest stand up? edhopper Mar 2018 #39

Ask any stand up comedian of the era or now even. This is not something I made up. Eliot Rosewater Mar 2018 #40

I saw her stand up in the 80s edhopper Mar 2018 #42

I so agree on Metcalf B2G Mar 2018 #119

I like everyone else .... FarPoint Mar 2018 #27

Had you taken the time to read the post, I set that argument out myself. hlthe2b Mar 2018 #5

I read your post tazkcmo Mar 2018 #19

I said that both I and Arnold laid out the reasons why Rosanne and her pro-Trump views hlthe2b Mar 2018 #21

I appreciate your hlthe2b Mar 2018 #84

Thank you for the article. I will not watch this. n/t phylny Mar 2018 #6

Understand, but thank you for being polite. I found the article interesting even despite my disdain hlthe2b Mar 2018 #7

I'd actually watch if the title character wasn't in it. Blue_Adept Mar 2018 #8

Sounds as though there will be majority emphasis on Sarah Gilbert's character rather than Roseanne hlthe2b Mar 2018 #9

My main impetus to watch is to see how they handled the Two Beckies Blue_Adept Mar 2018 #14

The first actress to play Becky is playing her in the reboot oberliner Mar 2018 #47

I used to love Roseanne (the show) lillypaddle Mar 2018 #10

I can look forward to her views being ridiculed by the rest of the actors/characters hlthe2b Mar 2018 #12

I really see a wealth of jokes just ready for the making and that can go for both sides. Kirk Lover Mar 2018 #54

I think Roseanne came out for Trump because of this show. mr_liberal Mar 2018 #25

oh, I think she's committed to her lunacy... hlthe2b Mar 2018 #28

Her interview with Kimmel was a part of the act. Its fake. mr_liberal Mar 2018 #36

How do you know this? nt Kirk Lover Mar 2018 #55

A little different take on why I probably won't watch it dameatball Mar 2018 #29

a thoughtful commentary... hlthe2b Mar 2018 #30

I never thought those folks on RoseAnne were dumb....far from it and they were not portrayed that Kirk Lover Mar 2018 #46

I agree. But I think they boosted the idea that it was okay to be. It caught on. dameatball Mar 2018 #48

Arnold's article seems intent on trying to make a rehatched sitcom into some procon Mar 2018 #31
