Roseanne revival Table Read - Both Beckys! -- (link)

I actually think a Roseanne reboot is a good thing in today's climate (deadline.com)

Responses:

I did not know 2nd Becky was Sarah Chalke?! -- nm - con_carne Oct 18, 09:04
What I learned today: People actually liked the Rosanne tv show. - Spawn Oct 18, 09:03 11
- It's probably in Strongbad's Wife's top 5 shows ever. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:14
- John Goodman was a revelation -- nm* - con_carne Oct 18, 09:13
- I found it depressing for a 'comedy' but it wasn't the type of family/situation you often saw on TV -- nm* - ty97 Oct 18, 09:05
- It ran out of ideas in the later seasons but at the start was hilarious. -- nm - Reagen Oct 18, 09:05 4
  - The last season was a complete trainwreck. I thought I read somewhere that the revival is ignoring it entirely. -- nm* - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:13 3
    - They are, but they could knock out the last two or three years really. One or two seasons past the loose meat restaurant was a good end point. -- nm* - Name Withheld by Request Oct 18, 09:15 2
      - Which I always thought was a supremely awful name for a sandwich. - Reagen Oct 18, 09:32
      - One of our favorite characters was Martin Mull. Haven't heard yet if he is returning or not (heard no months ago) -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:18
- I don't know how much is nostalgia or how much the humor it will bring will hold up to today's sitcoms - oblique, SuperFeud Champion and Tenth Astronaut Oct 18, 09:04
- Loved it. It was the first real working class sitcom of that era. Talked about losing jobs and making hard choices. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Oct 18, 09:04 1
  - Entertainment! -- nm - Spawn Oct 18, 09:04
Not that he probably wasn't already set for life, but Michael Fishman is probably the happiest person about this happening. - ty97 Oct 18, 09:00 1
- He went into the producing side of things. -- nm - Reagen Oct 18, 09:01
Wait. (um spoilers?) - ty97 Oct 18, 08:55 4
- It was all a dream -- (link) - oblique, SuperFeud Champion and Tenth Astronaut Oct 18, 08:56
- spoilers - Beaker Oct 18, 08:55 2
  - spoiler - ty97 Oct 18, 08:56 1
    - I'm okay with that. -- nm - mud Oct 18, 08:58
How does that not cause a rip in the time-space continuum? -- nm - Baronnosaurus Rex Oct 18, 08:52 10
- "Chalke will be appearing in the revival in a new role. " So the Becky #2 actress will just be playing someone else, not Becky -- nm - ty97 Oct 18, 08:54 6
  - This is chaos I say. Cats and dogs sleeping together. -- nm - Baronnosaurus Rex Oct 18, 09:02 5
    - Becky and Becky ... ? -- nm - Beryllium Oct 18, 09:13 2
      - Becky #1 was too priss for that. -- nm - Reagen Oct 18, 09:15 1
        
        As if she didn't get her mind blown in college and broke out of that. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Oct 18, 09:16
    - Chaos! -- (link) - ty97 Oct 18, 09:04 [youtube]
    - Relax. What do you think this is, the Marvel Cinematic Universe? -- nm - con_carne Oct 18, 09:03
- My favorite gag of their opening theme credits was the pictures morphing from Gorenson to Chalke and back again. -- nm - Name Withheld by Request Oct 18, 08:54 2
  - "Where the hell have you *been*?!" -- nm - Reagen Oct 18, 08:55 1
    - That was great. -- nm - mud Oct 18, 09:08
Where is Sandra Bernhard!? -- nm - MDH Oct 18, 08:45 3
- Touring IIRC. -- nm - Spawn Oct 18, 08:48
- And wow, Whitney Cummings is the EP? She's raking it in. -- nm - MDH Oct 18, 08:46 1
  - She was on Howard Stern the other day - she appears to be in a much better place than her last stand up special suggests -- nm - Epiphany Oct 18, 08:56
