I’m curious to see if this show (though full of leftist causes) has any effect on President Trump’s approval ratings. If it does cause his ratings to go up at all, it’s kind of good but kind of sad at the same time.
With Sara Gilbert as a c0-executive producer, how long will she allow a conservative bend to the show???
ABC will dump Roseanne as soon as some camera hog pretends her feelings are hurt.
As long as it’s making money.
I haven’t seen the show, but I get the feeling that the only conservative bend to it is a democrat who supports President Trump. Not so much conservative as a rogue Trump voter. Now if the boy who dresses like a girl realizes what a freakish thing that is and smartens up, well, that’s some good progress.
I haven’t seen it either...Just what I’ve heard that it had a conservative bend...Maybe what they were referring to is really the way you stated it...Thanks...
Maybe I’ll watch it next week. I suspect the interest of many has been piqued with the coverage it got and the ratings will go even higher next week. If THAT doesn’t send a message, nothing will.
I did watch some of the old one...I thought it was pretty good...
They might want to wait and see how the reboot does. Many of the viewers for Ep1 were likely curiosity viewers.
The reboot of Will & Grace did fine for the first few episodes, but it is sort of struggling in the ratings now.
I watched the original Roseanne but quit during the last 2 seasons. It just was not able to maintain the humor.
Have no interest in this at all. Rosie isn’t conservative at all. Anyone remember her disrespect national anthem? She hasn’t changed. Stop making stupid people famous.
Everyone quit watching after the Connors won the lottery.
She won’t. She’s the one who talked Roseanne into it. Why would she break the egg of the golden goose.
You have no idea what you are talking about. And I think she has been replaced by Fergie as the worst rendition of the National Anthem. She has been a Republican (not Conservative) stalwart standing up for Trump in Hollywood because she doesn’t give a damn. I respect her for that.
Can’t wait to watch that one. I never watched her show before, but I will record and watch now.
Just from a practical standpont, 21 years is a long time off the air when bringing a series back with the original cast -- y'know, people die over the course of 21 years. I stand amazed -- also amazed that ABC (Already Been Community-organized) is so fired up about this. I wonder if anyone can explain the connection to Whitney Cummings (executive producer), that's not a good fit. Is it merely because her standup is most similar to Roseanne's? Thanks EdnaMode.
Would be hard to measure, but certain not to hurt.
Yep. People here forget this. Not all Trump voters are conservative. President Trump himself isn't really a conservative!
A large segment of Trump voters remain on the sidelines of the culture wars. If they have an opinion one way or the other about abortion or gay marriage, they don't have the luxury of caring about it. They're too busy trying to keep their heads above water.
Shut up.
LAUGH OR I KILL THIS CAT!
