From Sitcoms Online:

--
For those viewers who haven't watched yet or want to experience 10th season episodes (so far) all over again, the revival of Roseanne will rebroadcast four back-to-back episodes on Tuesday, April 24 from 8:00-10:00 p.m. EDT, on The ABC Television Network. Episodes are also available via streaming and on demand. Plus, an original episode of Deception kicks off a two-night event (part two airs Sunday, April 29) where, for the first time this season, Deception will show viewers how Cameron Black executes one of the grandest illusions in history, immediately following the Roseanne marathon on Tuesday, April 24 from 10:00-11:00 p.m. EDT. The revival premiere, of Roseanne, originally broadcast on March 27, set a Nielsen all-time delayed viewing record with a +8.8 million viewer lift after just 7 days of playback, driving its Live + 7 Day average audience to 27.26 million viewers.

Episodes to air during the two-hour block include:

"Twenty Years to Life" - (8:00-8:30 p.m. EDT)
"Dress to Impress" - (8:30-9:00 p.m. EDT)
"Eggs Over, Not Easy" - (9:00-9:30 p.m. EDT)
"Darlene v. David" - (9:30-10:00 p.m. EDT)

The series stars Roseanne Barr as Roseanne Conner, John Goodman as Dan Conner, Laurie Metcalf as Jackie Harris, Lecy Goranson as Becky Conner-Healy, Sara Gilbert as Darlene Conner, Michael Fishman as D.J. Conner, Emma Kenney as Harris Conner-Healy, Ames McNamara as Mark Conner-Healy and Jayden Rey as Mary Conner.

 

Michael Fishman is a pretty lousy actor but I'm still glad to see him back on the show. Now let's get an episode focusing on his family, please.

 

It took me a second to realize it was Rhea Seehorn, from Better Call Saul.

 

That explains it then. I am not familiar with that actress, or Better Call Saul.

 

Apparently on 4/24 there won't be a new episode (they'll air four repeats) so the season finale episode will (probably) air on May 22nd, not May 15th like I thought.

 

You should fix that.

 

When you cast a child actor at an age as young as he was, you have no way of knowing if they will grow up into a competent actor. The fact that he did not was pretty apparent in the final few years of the original series, and he hasn't improved in the intervening years. His lack of acting skills probably make it unlikely there will be an episode focusing on his family, because he would have to have a central role in such an episode and he's not really up to the task.

I was not a fan of the whole surrogacy premise, but I really liked the way they wrapped it up and how it provided an opportunity to give Becky some more depth. The b-plot in this episode was ridiculous though. There's no way a shelter would deny someone a pet adoption without any good reason like that.

 

Spoiler: Tomorrow nights episode

David (Johnny Galecki) returns for the episode.

 

I was waiting for the show to continue. The shows over !

 

Was a good one, but they tried to put too much in to it.

Wonderful episode IMO

 

Spoiler: Minor Spoilers for Darlene v. David

Another great episode that was both funny and touching. Estelle Parsons (who I assumed had retired before finding out she was coming back for this episode) was terrific and Johnny Galecki (who I haven't seen in anything since Rosanne ended) was very funny in his scenes. I hope they both return for at least one episode next season. This is tied with last week's episode for my favorite episodes so far!

Also, here are the rest of the airdates and episode titles for the remaining episodes from epguides.com:

Spoiler: Airdates and epiosode titles for the rest of the season.

228. 10-6 01 May 18 No Country for Old Women
229. 10-7 08 May 18 Go Cubs
230. 10-8 15 May 18 Netflix & Pill
231. 10-9 22 May 18 Knee Deep

I hope we get a gag reel (outtakes) on the DVD/Blu-Ray release because you just know there had to have been some great screw-ups throughout the season.

 

Another good one. Continued to be impressed with the overall quality of the revival.

 

galecki is the only child actor from the show who seems to constantly have had work since the show ended

 

When is Sandra going to appear?

 

Sara's been plenty busy in the 20 years since the show ended both in front of the camera and doing other things.

 

Laurie Metcalf has been very busy too.

 

shes not a child actor lol. thats why i didn't mention her or john goodman

 

Wow! Awesome episode tonight. Galecki was great!

 

"Beep!".

 

Sara Gilbert consistently worked as well.

Sara Gilbert - Wikipedia

 

i actually forgot she was on ER for a long time

 

I think the writers and Rosanne and Laurie have totally forgotten that Jackie has a son. Maybe one of them will remember next season or they'll cast an actor to play him.

 

Also, she's also on The Talk since 2010. EP and creator on that as well.

Galecki and her had some great chemistry tonight. They dated back in the day as well.

 

Another excellent episode. So much fun to see Bev as well.
I'm guessing Andy won't be mentioned during the reboot. As far as Jerry Garcia, he may never appear either unless they need to hotshot something in the upcoming seasons.
