2 questions about the Roseanne show - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

mrvitale · 11-08-2002, 01:21 PM

1. Would anyone happen to have the transcripts of my 2 favorite roseanne episodes ( the episode where darlene and becky are grounded for breaking curfew, or the episode when Darlene is grounded for coming home late from returning from a concert when her friend left her there to talk with her BF.\
2. I was also wondering since I loved this show because it actually showed kids doing stupid stuff and getting yelled at, and grounded like real life, unlike Full House when you would hear a big speech about why you dont do these things and then someone gets in trouble. This show seemed more " real life" then Full House - but the question I have is - was Darlene ever in BIG trouble in an episode? I mean I know Becky got grounded for 2 weeks the episode when she mouthed off to Rseanne but as far as I remember - Darlene was always grounded for a day or 2. Can anyone help me out with any of these things. Thanks

Roseanne almost pulled Darlene out of school because she found out Darlene was using drugs that was around 1994, also in 1994 after Roseanne found out Darlene and David were living together she got into a lot of trouble, Roseanne actually made out an A-Z list of punishments for her to do.

in 1993 When Darlene painted the big picture of the dead cows in front of the lunch box and made it look like a murder scene, she was forced to serve loose meat sandwiches at the Lanford Daze fair.

Also in 1992 when Becky and Darlene gave Roseanne a day at a beauty parlour only to get her to agree to let them go to a concert Dan made them spend the weekend with Bev singing show tunes.

So they did get punished, sometimes in unorthodox ways though.

suprisingly, darlene always seemed to be in the least amount of trouble, she was mostly in trouble for petty things, she also was the only kid not to steal a vehicle (dj stole the car and mark and becky stole the motorcycle)

Good examples
maybe its not considered a punishment but Roseanne made her read her poem (some school function she was asked to read it at) against her will

Also Darlene didnt live at home for the whole show. A lot of the rebellious things she did was when she lived away in Chicago. Also when she was younger she mostly talked smack and Becky was more of the one to get in trouble for her actions.
Darlene was rebellious but most of her dealings where with words not actions like Becky (snuck out to see Mark, took Dans bike, got drunk at home w/ friend, ran off got married, etc...)

Actually, if I remember it correctly, after getting busted for going to that comic book convention in Chicago, Darlene was not allowed to even see David anymore... Only David snuck into the garage when Darlene was cleaning it... Jackie caught them and told David to get out or they'd be in HUGE trouble if Dan and Roseanne caught them...

I think Darlene usually used Becky to avoid getting into huge trouble... Like a younger sibling would. (I'm a second daughter too, and I understand it...) Since Becky was so easy to get riled up, Darlene would just use that, and get Becky into trouble, or, she would just stand by and act good while Becky got herself in the spotlight, and then make fun of her after she was already in trouble... Another great win for the middle kid!
