With The Conners there have been 4 scenes like this for me.

Me too. I completely agree with those, but it's because Roseanne and Mark are mentioned. I really do wish Glenn were getting treated more kindly than he is, but the Roseanne parts can't and shouldn't be ignored.

I hate what they did to Mark on The Conners. They've completely vilified him when in the originally show they all came around and adopted him as one of their own. This isn't to say Mark was the best choice Becky could have made, but she chose him anyway despite their many warnings, and they all eventually accepted the situation and Mark, so for Dan to go on this "I always hated that son of a bitch" rant just told me how far The Conners was trying to go to retcon the Healey's and separate itself from the original show while still being about the same family.

Or a true patriot standing up for democracy and the peaceful transfer of power (After Trump incited an angry mob to literally murder him lol)

Keep living in your fantasy land if you want, but Trump never instructed or incited anyone to kill anyone. Please tell me where and how "marching" and "peacefully protesting" translate to "mUrDeR!!!!!" in your book.

Literally watching season 2… random feeling of being bummed about how it ended

It sucks that season 2 is really the place to stop unless you're in the mood to take several steps down in terms of quality, convoluted plots, character development and writing. Things would look much prettier if Netflix hasn't gotten greedy and let the story play out it's natural conclusion by season 3 or 4 instead of prolonging it. Such a bad decision.

Yeah, we need someone willing to negotiate, and this administration doesn't want that. We are screwed if Trump doesn't win.

I hope not, but I think we're already screwed. They're importing voters and, eventually, an army to subdue us with when we become too much of an inconvenience. I really hope I'm wrong, but I think it's too late. At least, too late to rely on an honorable election to get us out of this.

Read it when it first came out but don't remember much of it now. Might see if I can locate my copy and give it another read. I do remember thinking it was much better than I had thought it would be when I bought it.

Being low income working class, Roseanne reminds me I'm not alone and there are more like me than there are who live like, say, Frasier, Will & Grace, Reba, etc. I also grew up an only child in a broken home with my dad while Mom had very little to do with me because she had different life priorities, so I guess the Conners became like my surrogate/ ideal family. Mostly though, it's because I relate so well to what it feels like to be one paycheck away from homelessness. It's nice to see them roll with it and still manage to laugh and occasionally have some fun too, regardless of how bleak the future looks.

If you admired her most of your life you should believe her explanation for calling that woman a gorilla. She said she didn't even know she was black and thought she was a fellow Jew. Nobody that claimed to love Roseanne so much for all those years wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt and I believe they overreacted in firing her and rebranding the show. She apologized and if you've heard her beyond the surface of the media explosion and to the people that know her, she's not at all a racist person. That's not to say that I don't watch The Conners, as I do, but they still did Roseanne wrong.

Agreed. And I do believe she thought Jarrett was white. So did I until learning otherwise due to the tweet. I did not, however, believe the Ambien story. But it is what it is. I also believe her tweet was about Obama's idiotic deal/payoff to Iran, hence the Muslim Brotherhood part of the tweet.

I think the single most frightening sound from that night would have come shortly after the fact. Within a minute of the ship leaving the surface; amidst the screams of those left behind, survivors in the lifeboats reported hearing a sudden, thundering roar, like a muffled explosion, coming from far beneath them. We now know this sound was the stern section imploding on descent, but imagine being in a lifeboat thinking it was all over, and then hearing that.

TLW. Darker, more dinos, moral to the story, and some interesting characters. It also feels like it kept the spirit of its predecessor while building upon it. Almost as good as the book...until the third act, but I digress. The book ending felt a little flat, so I can understand Spielberg wanting to go a little bigger for a finale.

OP you do whatever you want. And as for anyone who doesn't like it or thinks it's "weird AF"? The hell with 'em.

If there's any way whatsoever to chase off just about every last older fan of this show in one move...this would probably be it.

Katy is believable in a blue collar role. Dan marrying a widowed Peg Bundy would have been epic.

I would have loved this as a crossover idea. Peg, Bud, and Kelly joining the Conner family. I can only imagine the scene around the dinner table with that combo!

I remember seeing it in magazines around the time they were building hype for the upcoming Batman Begins. Probably a publicity shot.

Yeah, sometimes. I'm the same age as DJ is supposed to be (early 40s) and thankfully still have both parents, but both parents are Dan's age and, Dad especially, is showing similar wear and tear. Actually I'd say Dan is in better shape because he's still able to at least do some work around the house while my Dad often struggles to move around the house thanks to decades of working with his back. But yes, seeing Dan makes me think of (and worry about) my own dad, so yeah it bothers & saddens me.

He aged so quickly! In season 10 of Roseanne, he looked great but by season 3 of the Conners, he's so different. I don't know what it is but between the weight loss, the long/scraggly hair, and something with his teeth, he aged 20 years in four. Started a rewatch of Roseanne and now almost caught up with the Conners and been a trip going from 30-year old Goodman to current 70-year old Goodman in a few weeks.

I feel like there was a drastic change in his physical appearance between season 10 of Roseanne and season 1 of The Conners. It worked for the show because someone losing their spouse often causes them to look different due to stress and grief, but I also thought it might have been real, and caused by the stress & concern for the show/his job after the fallout of Roseanne's tweet. I mean, John Goodman probably doesn't have to work at this point, or even back then, but I can imagine being part of a show that's suddenly cancelled and thrown into major upheaval as being a stressful situation for anyone, regardless of how much they need the work or don't. Just having a name attached to a project that suddenly gets torpedoed has to be difficult to cope with, no matter who's at fault.

THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING!

This is a good idea. Needs to be someone you can get creative with without feeling beholden to one couple or the other. Very good idea!

Love the ending! Not a gamer, but wish I could play this one. Thanks for posting.

I'm not much of one anymore, either. I might dust off the PS4 once a year and play something like Batman, but that usually lasts an evening or two and I get bored. 🤣

First person shooter/GTA type game where you go through Port Charles and all the familiar locations around it defeating enemies, collecting objects, & having random one-nighters until you meet "the one". Then, as a super-couple (switching between the two characters along the way as story dictates) you work your way through enemies starting with the mob, which leads to someone connected with the DVX, then once you destroy the DVX organization, you are now a WSB agent couple, and are pitted against the evil Cassadine family in a timed mission to find and destroy the Cassadines and whatever doomsday device they have (without losing either character within your couple), recover the famed Ice Princess diamond, then return to Port Charles, get married, and win the game.

Just now saw this. He performed that so beautifully! Absolutely love him! Go Bradford! ❤️🇺🇲

Grant Putnam.

I knew he had passed but wasn't aware how or why, and this post got me curious so I googled...damnit, I'm even sadder now than I was when I initially learned of his passing. 😢 I and so many others fight depression constantly with varying degrees of severity, so I can relate so much to what he must have been thinking and feeling.

He's very handsome. That thick salt & pepper head of hair he's getting as he ages and those eyes are mighty pretty. Not a bad looker at all!

Eagle eyes!! I've watched this series I don't know how many times over the decades and never noticed this! Awesome catch!

I'm team Roseanne any time she puts a foot in either one or both their asses.

It is if you're a Democrat. Especially so if it's something you as a Democrat don't like seeing or hearing; differing opinions, independent thinking, morals, originality, etc.

Good thing she has all that arm strength from decades of lifting all those glasses of bourbon to her big perma-puckered mouth. Otherwise this picture might be even more embarrassing than it already is.
