This was accommodated in the opening scene with Dan wearing a CPAP mask and Roseanne screeching, "I thought you were dead!"
A bit of rusty acting, with Darlene (Sara Gilbert) the standout exception. Otherwise, the show was as entertaining as ever while addressing family values of the working class.
The cross-dresser boy character is quirky, but the boy is otherwise happily adorable. The story line was true to the series premise with the family struggling through their opinions and emotions. Sweet moment when Dan hugged his grandson.
Will continue to follow the series.
Love your perspective.
