Trivia and QuotesQuotes Roseanne: Here I am, 5 o`clock in the morning, stuffing breadcrumbs up a dead bird`s butt.Trivia Shelley Winters plays Estelle Parsons` mother in the show, but she is only seven years older in real life. Jim Varney`s character`s full name was Prince Carlos Phillip Jonathon Kent Arthur William Hobson Peppy Charmaine.
D.J. was born in 1981. D.J. stand for David Jacob. #
# Sal Barone was originally cast as D.J. and appeared in the pilot. However, there was a writer`s strike after the pilot was filmed and the producers took the opportunity to recast the part with someone a bit younger before production continued. There was also some friction on the set between Barone and `Sara Gilbert (I)`, which may have contributed to the producer`s decision. Sal Barone was originally cast as D.J. and appeared in the pilot. However, there was some friction on the set between Barone and `Sara Gilbert (I)` so his mother took him off the show.
All the exterior shots going to and coming from commercial breaks are shots of various city streets and buildings in Evansville, IN. This is where Matt Williams, the executive producer, attended college. Alicia Goranson`s request to wear her hair shorter as Becky was originally turned down by the producers. Goranson took her case to Roseanne, who solved the issue by taking up a pair of scissors and hacking Goranson`s hair short then and there. #
# Sometimes, posters for the comic book "The Sandman" can be seen in Darlene`s bedroom. These were suggested by then-writer Joss Whedon.
The character `Dan Conner` was ranked #13 in TV Guide`s list of the "50 Greatest TV Dads of All Time" (20 June 2004 issue). In Alicia Goranson`s first episode after her absence, Rosanne and Dan are in D.Js old room which they are fixing up for the new baby, when Becky shows up at the door with a drop cloth to paint the room and Rosanne says "Where the hell have you been?" a little later, Darlene and D.J are in the laundry room when Becky walks in Darlene says "Where the hell have you been?", referring to her replacement by Sarah Chalke.Prompting Becky to say "why is everyone asking that"? #
# Not only did two actresses play Becky (Alicia Goranson and Sarah Chalke) but there were also two D.Js (Sal Barone and Michael Fishman), two actresses playing Dan`s mother Audrey Conner (Ann Wedgeworth and Debbie Reynolds), three actors playing Crystal`s son Lonnie (Josh C. Williams, `Luke Edwards` and Kristopher Kent Hill) and two actors playing DJ`s best friend Todd (`Troy Davidson` and Adam Hendershott) "Corn" (the vegetable) is shown or mentioned in every episode. (usually canned corn) All three of Roseanne`s husbands (Bill Pentland, Tom Arnold, and Ben Thomas) made at least one guest appearance on the show. The show`s original title was "Life and Stuff". #
# During the last four seasons of the show, recurring guest stars Johnny Galecki (David) and Glenn Quinn (Mark) actually appear in more episodes than their on-screen girlfriends/wives Sara Gilbert (Darlene) and Sarah Chalke/Lecy Goranson (Becky) #
# Early during the first season, Roseanne frequently butted heads with the show`s creator Matt Williams. Williams worked as the executive producer for the show`s first thirteen episodes, but quit when Roseanne vehemently refused to say to her on-screen husband, "Well, you`re my equal in bed, but that`s it." Roseanne felt it was a line her character would never say. Although Alicia Goranson returned in the eight season to play Becky, Sarah Chalke, her replacement, still played Becky in some episodes that season. When Goranson left the show again at the end of the season, Chalke took on the role of Becky full time again. George Clooney appeared in the first season, as Roseanne`s boss at the factory where she worked. Becky was born 15 March 1975. Allegedly, in the early years there was a naked picture of George Clooney, only covering his privates with "Groucho"-style goggles, on the set fridge. This photo was supposedly taken by John Goodman or Roseanne when the three went out drinking one night. Then it mysteriously disappeared from the set one day. During Lecy Goranson`s short return to the role of Becky, Sarah Chalke made a cameo appearance in a Halloween episode. She appeared at the front door with children, trick-or-treating. #
# In one episode, Jackie says what she loves about Chicago is the theatre. In real-life, Laurie Metcalf is one of Chicago`s most famous stage actresses. This theme song was instrumental for all but the last season of the show, when it featured lyrics sung by John Popper of Blues Traveler. Ned Beatty is not quite 15 years older than his on-screen son John Goodman. Beverly`s middle name is Lorraine. The character name, Arnie Thomas, is a play on Tom Arnold`s name. #
# During season 8 there were two episodes ("We`re Going to Disney World" and "Disney World War II") in which the Connor family visited and loved the Walt Disney World Resort. An episode or set of episodes shot at Disney World or Disneyland was a frequent requirement of family shows on ABC after the network merged with the Walt Disney Company in July 1995 (other ABC shows that did this included "Boy Meets World" (1993), "Step by Step" (1991), "Full House" (1987) and "Family Matters" (1989)). The next _Roseanne_ episode aired after the cast returned from Disney World was "Springtime for David," in which David goes to work in a sinister and secretive amusement park; this episode is widely understood to be a parody of the Disney parks. Sarah Chalke took over the role of Becky for the final time in the 8th season she showed up in the episode "We`re Goimg to Disney World!" When she enters the first scene Roseanne says "Well you picked the right week to come back."
