How many of you assumed that D.J's name stood for Dan Jr.? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I did. And when I seen the episode abt DJ being in the spelling bee, they mentioned his name as DAVID JACOB. During it's first run when this episode aired, I was like "What???" I assumed DJ stood for Dan Jr.

I did too if you want to know the truth.

I was surprised when I heard (only recently) that it was David Jacob.

Glad to know. I had seen the episode last night and it made me wonder how many others thought his real name was Dan Jr. So, that's why I decided to post it here.

I didn't I believe it was in the first or second episode, and Darlene say's "David Jacob I'm going to get you"

Also, notice that there are now two David's in the Conner house...D.J. and Darlene's boyfriend/Mark's brother David. This show has a fascination with the name David I guess.

yeah I thought it was Dan jr. and didn't they reveal it after David (darlenes boyfriend) had moved in...

Nope. It was revealed before David ever moved in.

TheLandfordLunchBox · 04-10-2006, 06:23 PM

Never thought of that. Good topic.

darlenesthebest · 05-06-2006, 04:14 PM

Yeah, they've said his name a few times throughout the series.

LivinLaarge · 05-06-2006, 10:50 PM

Well, D.J, Dan Conner JR makes more since to me.

I never thought of it being Dan Jr... lol.

Seems so logical now.

It was revealed as David Jacob in Season 1, Toto We're not in Kansas anymore. On the dvd, Roseanne says that this is the only episode where they say it, but it was edited out of the DVDs, and they say it on a few other occasions. Lol.
