Roseanne

[Anonymous]

Dan Conner to me has a really special place in my heart. He reminds me of my dad and uncles and alot of other dads in middle lower class fly over america. God men, who loved their family, trying to make it work.

Same. My dad wasn't blue collar, but Dan Connor embodies the men in my extended family to a T. The only other "struggling" Dad character I can think of is Bryan Cranston on Malcolm in the Middle, but he didn't seem relatable to me.

Dan and Rosie really loved eachother too. I think a lot of people assume poor people that marry right out of highschool are unhappy, which isn't always the case.

Mark, oxygen is not a word. It's an abbreviation.

Why do you assume that men like Dan exist only in the fly over states? My own father and his four brothers were Baltimore born and bred, but were just like Dan. I'm 46 and grew up in a family very similar to Roseanne's, again in Baltimore. Maybe the difference is that it became more evident to people on the coasts that manufacturing and mills were not long for this country and we've already moved on?

That is an excellent episode!

I'm disappointed that there will be an update/remake/ add on episodes. I'd like to remember Rosanne in it's heyday -- which for me is season 1-3...

Becky: Who can eat this crud?

Dan: If you don't eat your crud for dinner, you don't get any crap for dessert.

She's not assuming anything about your dad in baltimore. She's just saying that Lanford, Illonis is a vital part of who Dan Conner is. That town and the people in that town is the whole point of the show.
