Yeah, it was very bitter. I heard them when Roseanne was on Howard Stern and Tom called in. The way Roseanne went off on Tom and how Tom seemed to be calm and rational. However, we now know she had her mental issues, past abuse, so forth; Tom had his drug abuse issues and you put those two kinds of people in a marriage and it is doomed to fail if both don't get help.

They are now on better terms. I heard Roseanne on Howard Stern (again) and she said some rather nice things abt Tom.

He was only on the show because at that time he was boinking roseanne, i found his character pointless but i liked how roseanne made him an idiot in the show because that was him lol.

Well, each of Roseanne's husbands made it on the show. So, yeah, if you are the boss' husband, chances are, you will make an appearance on her show.

Arnie was a dork, that is what made him so funny to me. He was the guy that no girl in her right mind would want to be with. Funny though, in the beginning, he was seen as Dan's friend; later on it was stated he went to high school with Roseanne, Jackie and the other ladies. They made a blood oath that none of them would do more than look at him. Jackie screwed up there.

Yes the episode where he kisses roseanne and she calls jackie they act then as if they didnt know him? i just didnt seem the point in his charater although he was fun to laugh at i guess.

I liked Arnie. Especially in the ep. "Five of A Kind", when he kisses Roseanne and Jackie.

Yes, thank you. That was where they (Jackie & Roseanne) referred to him as Dan's friend. Later on, he is the dork they went to high school with. I guess they thought we wouldn't notice.

He states he has "Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and a low sperm count, but he can still impregnate you." Maybe that contributes to the "fidgets" (the statement in bold, not the "sperm count" remark, that is!)

How lucky can us single ladies be? We'd have to be stupid to pass this up!
