I never would have recognized Crystal - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

She looks completely different.

HighVoltage · 05-04-2018, 02:40 PM

I said the same thing when I saw her, she looks so different while everyone else mainly looks the same. Still it's cool to see her back on the show I was hoping they'd bring some of the non main characters back

HuntingtonM15 · 05-04-2018, 03:13 PM

Yep. I felt the exact same way. Her voice hasn’t changed, though. Was so good to see her and Nancy. I just wish they could have been addressed by name since they were both such pivotal parts of the show.

Crystal will be back in tomorrow night's episode. I'm looking forward to a (hopefully) meatier role for Natalie West in tomorrow's episode. The two lines she had were not much of a part.

Not even a mention that she is Dan's mother-in-law. I hope next season does better with continuity.

I know!! I want to know what became of Crystal and Ed's kids and what became of Ed? He would be pretty old now! Not to be morbid, but is he still alive? If so are he and Crystal still married, or did they end up getting separated or divorced down the line ?

I can't wait to see her tonight. I loved Crystal ! One of my favorite Roseanne characters !

It is only 5:30 where I am at right now!!

Ned Beatty's still alive. He's 80.

I know Ned Beatty is! I mean I wonder if the character of Ed is supposed to be still alive ?! Like is Crystal widowed, or are they still together, or divorced?

Crystal got a decent role tonight, although I do wish they'd acknowledge the fact that she has three kids and a husband, and is a Conner.

It was really good to see her.

I loved tonight's episode. Not only did we get to see Crystal, I felt like the entire episode was pretty funny, and the episode still tackled a sensitive topic. This episode totally felt like classic Roseanne.

I was looking at Natalie West’s IMDB and she hasn’t done much outside of Roseanne. It’s weird how some people in Hollywood just get one significant gog and that’s it. Like J. Alan Thomas in Taxi.

HuntingtonM15 · 05-17-2018, 11:14 AM

I really enjoyed seeing her getting a bigger role in Tuesday's episode. It was more up to par with the Crystal that we knew from long ago. I hope they use her, Nancy and other characters from past (Bonnie, please!!) in Season 2.

I'd love to see them all again, too, and I hope that's their plan. It definitely would be cool to see Bonnie. She had a great voice back then, and I think Roseanne (Barr) liked her a lot. I heard (I don't know if this is true) that she had a stroke years ago, but she seem okay now, and is still performing. I wonder what Bonnie would be doing these days?

Ned Beatty's still very much alive so I guess it's not unrealistic to surmise Dan's Father still being around.

Impressions · 05-26-2018, 09:04 AM

Disagree. She was very recognizable on the show. I knew the moment I saw her.
