Roseanne is sooooo rusty at acting.

Rusty implies that she was good at some point.

While she is funny and can have great delivery, she is a terrible actor. It's part of the appeal of this show hah.

She may have never been great, but watch that clip above and then watch this weeks show. Not good.

Finally got a chance to watch it last night. I absolutely loved it. It was very much the same show it was 20 years ago and that's what made it so great. Hitting on all of the political and social aspects of today was great. Once again, the reason I loved the original was because it was so real. People could relate. And this was the same way. They weren't politically correct. They said what was on their minds and yet it still felt wholesome and real.

No, Roseanne can't act. But she never could before. That doesn't bother me. She has a great supporting cast that carries the show for her.

This is one of my scenes from the original show. Especially Jackie. They found a marijuana cigarette in an old can and at first they think it's David's and they lecture him but then they decide to smoke it themselves.

John Goodman was worth watching, but that's not enough to keep me coming back. I thought it would be better.

---

I thought Goodman had lost a step or two...in the sense of being funny.

I thought Roseanne still has a very funny way of delivering a line...it's not just the words...it's her delivery that is improvisational. She says a normal comedic joke but says it in a way no one else does...which is very similar to the way she use to do stand up...also like Louie Anderson back in the day.

I just hope the ratings stay very high so they will bring back Last Man Standing.

I just hope Tim Allen makes it back onto any show.

I watched every Roseanne when I was a kid.

My favorite moments were when Roseanne tucking in the girls and leans over to each and says, "you know you're my favorite daughter, don't you?" I still do that to my kids.

I loved how she handled DJ and the black girl at school.

Very early on she yells to the kids, "What did I say about eating snacks right before dinner?" And they exasperatedly respond, "Use a plate."

I'm done with it. Won't make it to season 2.

Renewed today for a season 2 after somehow becoming the most watched broadcast scripted show in several years.

And this is season 10. Lol.

The girl playing Harris is really good.

Although I keep expecting an F bomb from her since that is her favorite word on Shameless.

I think it is getting better as they work more.

I keep wondering where her baby is.

Funny story about Shameless.

I worked with the dad of the girl that played the cult girl fostered by V and Kevin.

She was 15-16 at the time but they didn't let her watch the show.

All the other kids watched the show.

Wow! I thought I was the only one.

Loved Home Improvement growing up. Introduced my 6 & 4 year old boys to it and they love it now too.

While the show started to slip around season 6, overall was a damn good show with tons of classic episodes.

Don't know how they'd bring it back though. Last episode ended with them moving to Indiana for Jill to take a psychology job and Tim, Al, and Heidi all quitting Tool Time.

Well they brought Dan back from the dead, so...anything's possible?

Agree with this. I wasn't a heavy watcher in it's prime, just caught it every now and then. But my wife and I really enjoyed the new episodes.

The whole reboot was a waste of money.

If anything it's as bad as the reboot of American Idol
