In reply to the discussion: While I won't waste my time watching that asshole Roseanne's revival, if it garners enough viewers, [View all]Jake Stern
(3,145 posts)I half-jokingly tell people who ask about my childhood to watch Roseanne.
Aside from having differing politics than the main character my mother is very much like Roseanne Conner: Outspoken, opinionated and sarcastic but full of love for her family and friends.
My father is quite a bit like Dan Conner: a blue collar, easy going jokester.
Grew up in a blue collar family that struggled to make ends meet so I can readily identify with the Connors.
Politics has become an unhealthy obsession. Now we can't like a show, movie or song because the entertainer supports the other party.
I won't stop watching Clint Eastwood movies just because he a Trumpian asshole. Politics aside, I happen to think he's a damn fine actor.
I enjoy the music of Charlie Daniels (especially the older stuff) despite him being hardcore MAGA.
