“Roseanne is anti-traditional values.”
In some ways, yes. But watching reruns of the old series I was amazed at how traditional values were a part of the show. The Martn Mull homosexual was “out there”, but overall it was good.
The parents were adamant about the daughters not having sex unmarried. Roseanne rescued the daughter’s boyfriend from an abusive mother. Roseanne and Dan frequently mentioned how lucky they were to have found each other; they never cheated on each other. Jackie would tell Roseanne how lucky she was to have found such a “good man”. When it came to protecting and providing for the family, Dan was the guy. When Jackie was in a domestic abuse relationship, Roseanne and Dan stepped in to end that.
Really, the traditional values for a blue-collar, middle class family were highlighted.
And that was Roseanne’s show; she had control of the content. With the new one, with that skank Sara Gilbert pretty much in charge, I was worried. I hope the lesbian freak falls on her face, career-wise.
The original Roseanne was fantastic. Another conservative story was Jackie choosing life for her baby and marrying Fred (even though they divorced later).
Maybe Roseanne is having her “come to Jesus” Moment and has converted to the Conservative cause (as she is Jewish a Come to Moses Moment?). What ever it is—she is welcome to the ranks of the New Trumpocratic Party (The Party of Truth, Justice and the American Way). If she is against the Obama/Clinton Cabal She is on our side! She nay never have a new TV show—But Maybe a New Movie? That’s why we need a conservative Hollywood Studio to make movies for the real people!
The only thing traditional about the show is the marriage.
Nothing else is traditional, unless you are changing the meaning of the word, which I guess you are - and that was my point.

Very well said.
I would like to add that she did an interview with Paula Jones. In that interview she called out the Clintons, NOW, and the dnc for ridiculing Jones. It’s still on you tube if you do a search for roseanne and paula jones.
