I'll admit it. I happend to catch a few minutes of Roseanne during the daily mid-afternoon garbage re-runs on network TV while putting away laundry and was reminded of how poignant the show was at the time it aired. Even catching a few minutes of it was enough to be reminded of how much of a departure from the traditional sitcom it was to show the not so impressive side of American families (although admittedly Roseanne was not the first to do this). Regardless I found it smart in how it pretends to be stupid...and was also amazed at just how quickly I could find out exactly which episode I watched and pull up a YouTube video of the segment. Ahh the power of the internet.
