View Full Version : Best Roseanne Tags
db108108 07-08-2003, 01:49 AM For those not in the know, the "tag" is the last 30 seconds of each episode or so. Many sitcoms just let the credits roll over scenes of the show, some show outtakes (increasingly rare), while some try to send the episode off with a bang.
I'm not sure if any tv show did it before "Roseanne," but no other show did it better. Pratically every tag was priceless. Share your favorites here.
db108108 07-08-2003, 01:54 AM My personal fav is from season seven when Traci Lords got hired at the diner. The running joke of the episode was nobody but Leon cleaning the grease trap.
the tag was a take off of a porn video (complete with different credit graphics, Roseanne & Jackie in wigs) as the girls try to seduce a man who just walked in. (Jackie: I need somebody to teach me how to be naughty...). In FF, they get him down on the floor and seemingly tie hime up. Cut to Roseanne smoking a cigarette, then a pan shot to the man cleaning out the grease trap! It was so hilarious.
Another favorite was at the diner with Lords also. Early in the episode Traci is describing how she can't work by the counter because her ex and her "did it" there. In the tag, Jackie and Fred are trying to spice up their sex lives by doing it in the diner, but they end up not doing it. After they leave, a man stands up from behind the counter and says something or other. We expect Traci to stand up next, but ti turns out to be Leon! The audience was howling, it was so funny.
SchuminWeb 07-08-2003, 03:48 PM I think one of my personal favorites is perhaps not the wackiest, but definitely amusing, when Tiny Tim the ukelele guy was showing David how it was done. Dan comes in, smashes both ukeleles, and then leaves. Tiny Tim says that those kinds of things happen a lot, gets out another ukelele, and continues.

Crimson and Clover 07-08-2003, 05:31 PM my favorite was from the episode Sherwood Schwartz: A Loving Tribute. with Bob Denver, Dawn Wells, Russell Johnson and Tina Louise. It was really funny, especially Bob Denver as Jackie.
Preditor74 07-09-2003, 03:14 PM My favorite is the end of the first episode of Season 8...the black and white with the two Becky's. Hey! Its on right now :happyface
db108108 07-09-2003, 03:15 PM I love that one too....
I'll have to remember to put the laundry in after the show today.
Superbatboy 07-09-2003, 04:58 PM There were so many good ones. The one when the new Becky came in and they were sitting around watching Bewitched.....
And the one where Dan drinks the rotten milk was classic.

Were the shots in that sequence composite shots?
I mean, were they filmed seperately for some reason (I.E. Sara and Lecy's conflicting schedules?), because in one shot, they're sitting on the couch, and the lower half of one of their legs is missing :D
Anyway, my favorite Tag is...well, at least I think it was a tag...
When Sara took over the part of Becky, and everyone was sitting in the living room talking about Darren on Bewitched, and how they all liked the first Darren better, and Becky casually replies, "Well, I liked the second Darren MUCH better..."
flagler 07-13-2003, 04:10 AM I have a few, but the ones I remember at the moment are when they did the send up of cops on the episode where DJ joyrides in Roseanne's car.
The other was after "Girl Talk" which itself is a classic episode, when Roseanne, Becky and Jackie are acting like men and Dan, Mark and Fred are acting like women.
I also enjoyed the porno takeoff mentioned before.
db108108 07-14-2003, 12:12 AM The Cops takeoff was drop dead hilarious! Especially the end of the scene as the camera focuses on Roseanne's ass as she stractches it! I hope TBS gets around to running that one again before it drops Roseanne
stephy 11-15-2003, 12:15 PM The one where the're wathing bewitched and the patty duke spoof were good but my favourite is in the episode when fred is complaining that jackie dresses andy like a girl and the tag is 16 years in the future and the're talking about how he used to complain about it and how andys football game is coming up. Out walks a teenage girl, fred doesn't notice that andys a girl and then asks why he drinks so much.
bubblegum 11-15-2003, 05:21 PM My favorites are the black and white with the two Becky's and When Jackie finds out they won the lottery (i think its a tag).
iloveTV 11-16-2003, 08:37 PM One of my favorite tags is when Luc and Laura and sitting in the restaurant with Roseanne and Dan abd Roseanne says something like her life is a lot like theirs because she had a daughter that looks completely different. (Anyone who is a General Hospital fan loves that one.) Anyone remember that word for word? I know it is different...maybe she says something about her being gone for 3 years.
Brent88 11-16-2003, 09:44 PM I have many that I like... but the best is the closing tag of the one where Jackie finds out they won the lottery and she goes out the door with the kids seats without the kids in them... LOL then the beginning tag of the next one where she goes over to Roseanne and Roseanne comes out without a shirt on and they start acting crazy...:lol:
Beyotch Knowles 11-19-2003, 01:34 AM Is this the one where Dan says (paraphrased):
It seems like there's always something going on here every week...and then it happens again in the summer

MandieR1980 11-21-2003, 03:08 AM So far my favorite is from the show I think it's called Backyard Barbeque and they are all singing in the backyard something like "I'm going to the freakshow" and Roseanne and DJ start dancing around like crazy it's hysterical
cc1228 11-21-2003, 11:35 AM My favorite was the Mark and Scott Hamiliton foot skating(sliding) on the new kitchen floor Dan put down......Hilarious.......:lol: :lol:
db108108 11-21-2003, 01:17 PM I don't remember seeing the backyard BBQ one- it sounds hilarious though. I must have been in the 6-9th seasons.
bubblegum 11-21-2003, 02:06 PM It was called "Scenes from a barbeque" its the second last episode in the third season. last week it was on oxygen
Janice 12-02-2003, 08:13 PM The spoof of the movie, The Graduate, with Jackie and David was just too funny.
The COPS sendup had me gasping for air.
:lol:

I about died laughing at the Cops spoof too...:rotflmao:
mudshark82 12-04-2003, 08:01 AM i liked on the episode where dan gets arrested for slugging fisher and he sings jailhouse rock in the cell.
i also liked the ones where arnie is abducted by aliens, especially when dj pops in and arnie goes, "michael, you're not in this scene, its just me and the 2 aliens" and he responds "i know, but i didnt get enough lines" and then i think the 2 aliens get mad and walk off the set, "6 hours of makeup for nothing".
Janice 12-07-2003, 03:35 PM Dan drinking the sour milk and having a convulsion was hilarious. He really played it up. His face looked like he was in a horror movie.
After flopping around on the kitchen floor like a fish out of water, he puts the milk back, and passes out.
:lol:
mudshark82 12-07-2003, 04:01 PM oh yes, i was laughing my ass off at that one the other night
dina18 12-18-2003, 05:35 PM I really like the one where they make fun of those milk comercials and it's DJ talking about how he'll look in ten years. Cardboard does a body good.
Southern Hellraiser 04-27-2005, 07:33 PM I liked the one from Skeletons in the closet when bev and the others were (trying) to play a halloween joke on Roseanne.
