In the last episode Roseanne makes a reference about Arnie/Tom Arnold. She says "I don't know what the hell happened to Nancy's husband, for all I know he was abducted by aliens."

about that pictures in the refrigerator, that is true. Roseanne said it herself. She said "There was one of george clooney's butt. that was a nice one". Those were in the eariler seasons.

Actually, in the final episode, Roseanne is going around the table. When it comes to Nancy,s he talk about how much she admires her. Then...

"I don;t know what happened to that husband of her's, but in my book I sent him to outer space"

I got this from Nick@Nite's Roseanne website.

"Many of the trials of her private life would find their way into the scripts of her show. Probably the most notable example of this was the day she dropped Tom Arnold's last name and the credits for the show listed every cast and crew member by first name only."

The 94-95 season(in syndication) is where Roseanne goes back to just Roseanne. In syndication, she was know as Roseanne Arnold from 1988 to 1994, when in actuality, she wasn't "Roseanne Arnold" that entire time. She should have been known as Roseanne Barr for the first couple of seasons.

I notice her first husband, Bill Pentland, in the credits too. I guess they were still together when Roseanne started.

Mr P was involved with the show for its entire run, I believe. They're still friends and he frequently posts on her website. He's actually her handyman now, and his wife Becky is Roseanne's personal assistant. Both very nice people

The Flagler comments were all inside jokes. Stacey (Tracey Lords) last name is Flagler. Also the episode where Becky and Mark move into the trailer, Dan tries to buy a hubcap from them and says it's from a 19-something Flagler. There are other instances but I can only remember these two right now.

Does anyone know the significance, if any, of the drawing on the Connor refrigerator? It has Rene written on it, and looks like a child's drawing.

Roseanne said that it was a piece of fan mial that they liked, so they stuck it on the fridge

don't forget all the crap about Jackie Thomas in the 92-93 season (I can think of at least 3 referneces to that show), Jackie Thomas was a bad sitcom that Tom Arnold did in that season that aired immediately following Roseanne

jayr481 · 12-23-2003, 01:15 PM

There was one episode in Roseanne's diner when she was talking to a customer and she refered to herself getting a face lift forgot the line. Also, she said becky left a year and a half ago when she got married and came back looking like a different person.
