Roseanne Vs. Malcolm In The Middle - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I like both of these shows they're both different yet there is a resemblance between the two shows.

Roseanne a working class Mom who yells at her kids, and the kids don't always get along lots of squabbling between them.

Lois a working class Mom who yells at her kids, and the kids don't always get along lots of squabbling between them.

I laugh out loud at both shows I've been enjoying Malcolm on N@N. What's your take on these fine shows?

Between those two shows, i deffently like Malcom better. But i won't mind haveing to watch rosane if there was nothing else on at the time.

I like both shows as well, but Roseanne wins hands down. Malcolm is more of a cartoonish show, where Roseanne is completely down to earth and believable. But both are very funny shows.

Roseanne any day even season 9 over Malcolm.

I wonder if Malcolm was Fox's answer to Roseanne?

Definitely Malcolm in the Middle, I like its cartoonish humor and its cast, and its awesome soundtrack. I hate Roseanne and can barely stand to sit through an episode of that show.

I don't really see any similarities between the two, either. Many shows have kid characters that fight with each other. They're both very different from each other

I was referring to Roseanne and Lois how they are both working class Mom's juggling their work and home life schedules.

Even so, the similarities stop there. The two characters and the shows themeselves are completely different. Regardless, Roseanne is definitely the better show.
