    • Trivia
      Alicia Goranson's request to wear her hair shorter as Becky was originally turned down by the producers. Goranson took her case to Roseanne, who solved the issue by taking up a pair of scissors and hacking Goranson's hair short then and there.
    • Goofs
      Throughout the series, primarily the latter seasons, the boom frequently drops into the shots.
    • Crazy credits
      Final Episode - Final Scene "Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that all was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, and make it possible." T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia)

    Realistic

    I do like Roseanne because it seems more realistic than the junk that is on TV today - take Friends for example - a bunch of whiny New Yorkers who never to have to worry about real problems. Roseanne gives us something different. I think a lot of people can relate to this show because it caters to your typical American - not wealthy, lives in a small town, has a family, trying to make it. I do think the last couple of seasons were ridiculous (the lottery subplot) but I guess those were done for a reason due to the actress, Roseanne.

    9/10 as for as sitcoms go.
