I streamed this on Hulu, not expecting much, but I have to admit, there where times when I was literally laughing out loud. Many inside jokes that you will not get unless you where a fan of the original series. Anyone else watching?

not a fan, especially after her terrible and terrifying rendition of the National Anthem before a ballgame in San Diego a decade or so ago...I'm sure she was going for satire and humor, given her limited singing skills, but...

I watched. Wasn't a regular viewer of the original, saw enough to appreciate, but I always try to distinguish between performance and performer...how else could I stand Amboy Dukes? HA!

Anyway, I thought this was as funny at least as the original. Certainly up to date, even thought provoking, didn't feel like they were preaching like many shows. Might have been a better comedy than 98.2% out there.

Wasn't allowed to watch the original. Growing up we were only allowed to watch stuff produced by my parent's church.

I'd get up and watch whatever was on after they went to bed, with a blanket draped over the TV and my head.

Saw a few episodes of Roseanne.

I'd consider watching the reboot, though there's very few things with real people I watch regularly. Mostly just watch cartoons.

Can't remember ever watching a single episode of the original all the way through.
Always thought she was a pretty funny stand-up comic.
Maybe too pizzed off though...

Thought she was leaving the Country after Trump got elected???

Instead she leaves her nut farm to rehash an old TV sitcom that fizzled years ago???

Yeah… not interested.

heard her interviewed in the last day or two saying how nice Trump has always been to her over many years. Paths crossed often in the entertainment industry... might have played many engagements at Trump owned properties.

and on the show, she and her husband voted for Trump.

The characters are played by people not liked here, but the characters are not real people and the characters in the show were very funny.

I love John Goodman, he is an awesome actor. Not sure I can stand Rosanne but I might dabble in a couple episodes.

Fgm? Unpatriotic? Patriotic enough for Trump.

Never liked her or her show. I don’t care enough to avoid it but who has time for a new sitcom?
