Lift, nip, tuck, Barr looks terrific.

Not funny then, less funny now. She'll be back at the nut farm after two episodes.

I'll be glad to see her back on. She has a very funny dry sharp humor that hits home. Whether you like her or not, she won't lie for anyone.

Gooooooooo Roseanne!!!!!

I've always liked her.

If there were a Lanford, Illinois, I'd visit it.

The most vile, sick, pathetic excuse of an American citizen that I have ever seen. I will not be watching any other NBC programming now...

Because of her past behaviour....

I am probably one of a few who really like Rosanne. I am very glad to hear she is making another show. She is a unique and gifted actor who like some things should come with a warning label. All in all I look forward to seeing her again on television. Good luck to her!

I am a Roseanne fan, too. :-)

So am I, she was a big part of my childhood. :) Say what you will about her past social behavior, but remember that everybody has a story, and Roseanne's wasn't all rainbows and sunshine. I have a lot of respect for who she has become and even in interviews she still has me lmao.

Fan #5.  I don't think she is a good actor, but I love her show.  I still have the reruns on and am looking forward to seeing her again.  I just hope it is half as good as Rosanne was.

I agree that her acting is weak, but she is funny and Rosanne was well written and had a good cast around her. John Goodman was born to play Dan. It really connected with the middle class demographic.

I'm not big on sitcoms ( I only watch The Office and Modern Family) but since Rosanne was so good I'll give it a looksey.

Roseanne is like a comfy old sweater that you can't throw away. You either love her or hate her. Those who hate, well, speaks volumes about them. Her Roseanne's Nuts show was actually quite entertaining and I found I respect her and where she's coming from. She's real people in spite of her success and that's special. There aren't many real folks left these days.

Roseanne is a breath of fresh air! Happy to see her back on TV -- but wish she had a show like Bill Maher. She's sharp and on target!
