Darlene is a recurring character on The Big Bang Theory, which is the top sitcom on network. So in addition to the talk show gig, she’s still been acting for the past many years on that show.

I suggested Rose O’Donnell, who is only half as crazy as Roseanne Barr, and renaming it “Rosie”.

To be fair, I watched the first two episodes of the reboot (aired back to back, so one viewing), and there was as much attention paid to the characters who had liberal viewpoints such as Jackie, DJ and Darlene as to Roseanne’s conservative views.

Rashad’s vehement support for Cosby rules her out in my book.

I would watch the shit out of “Darlene”. That was always my favorite character (followed by Jackie and Dan) on the original show.

Currently reading a biography of Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire so I’m all up in the Cavendish / Hartington / Devonshire business.

The family name was Cavendish, but he was the son of the Duke of Devonshire, no?

Gosh, I laughed out loud.

Roseanne is completely unhinged; she did not take “a few hours to gather her thoughts, then continue” as the article says, but tweeted and deleted ALL FRICKING NIGHT LONG after vowing to quit Twitter mere hours before.

Well, this just proves that even seeing a robot cry will make me well up, too.

Posted this a few days ago, but I was Facebook friends with Roseanne about 9 years ago and she was already just completely batshit crazy. This was on her personal page so I can only assume she was not playing to the masses, but showing her real self. I only lasted a few months.

I can’t get past the fact that she’s wearing a skimpy top and skirt that one would wear in the summer, and he’s wearing a long sleeved top, with a... WHAT exactly I don’t know, but it looks like a jumper on the top and a bag on the bottom. Just layers and layers of hotness.

Yet here you are, flogging your thoughts online.

That’s what’s strange about it - there was another guy right there. Why didn’t he grab the kid?

Change the name to “Rosie”, keep the same cast and swap Roseanne out for Rosie O’Donnell, who is only half as crazy.

I can understand how a serious actor like Rickman felt yoked to an 8 movie commitment in a children’s fantasy series, seeing how the books (and Snape’s story)were truncated, and the day to day challenges of acting with children - all must have been a drag.

I knew this would happen. I was actual Facebook friends with her during some of her more fallow years and she was absolutely, batshit crazy. Her ‘politics’ are all over the place, and generally quite repulsive.

But then God changed his mind a month later a let him meet the Pope anyway.

Agreed, though he did actually walk away from the job. (When Scaramucci was hired?)

Nah, SNL hasn’t made me hate Conway or the Trump sons any less.
