I’m wondering: If Matt Williams left after the first season and “An Officer and a Gentleman” was the 15th episode of the second season, how could he have asked Goodman and Metcalf if they would be willing to continue with the show if Roseanne quit?

My wife and I loved the show, but it got so bad at the end that we stopped watching, although we did watch the last episode to see what happened. This phenomenon seemed to afflict other shows that got very popular too. IMO Home Improvement and The Drew Carey Show ended up the same way, although not quite as weird.

Roseanne was my mom’s favorite show- I think it made her feel like a better mother. She liked it so much that she let us watch it, even though the show handled a lot of themes (and words) that weren’t normally part of our household.

In response to Kim’s question, no, that wasn’t Buck who portrayed Jerry Garcia Conner. During the end credits of the original episode featuring Jerry’s birth, there was a still photo of Roseanne holding Buck along with a birth announcement. That portion is usually cut out of the syndicated episodes, but it did start the rumor that that was little Buck portraying Jerry.

Did Roseanne’s real life son, Buck Thomas, play Jerry Garcia Connor as a baby?

my parents loved that show so much they would compare there real life to the show, even picking which characters us children best represented in this real life version.
i still try to wrap my mind around the last episode, but then after a while i just stopped, because it’s kind of annoying and really does cheapen the rest of the story. lol

I agree. I remember watching this show and being very impressed with the fact that they adressed small town living from a realistic standpoint. Yes. Some of us did grow up in Nowhere, Illinois.

I loved all the halloween specials. It was the Conners’ favorite holiday, and mine too!
