Roseanne is an Emmy Award winning American sitcom which aired on ABC from 1988 to 1997, starring stand-up comedian Roseanne Barr. The show portrayed a working-class family living in the fictional town of Lanford, Illinois, struggling to get by on a limited income. It was considered the most socially ground-breaking sitcom in generations, as it was the first situational comedy that realistically identified with what most Americans already had been doing for decades: it showed both parents of a traditional family working out of the house.[1] For many years, Roseanne was, in contrast to many of the most popular shows at the time, tackling subjects such as poverty, alcoholism, narcotics, sex, first menstrual periods, masturbation, obesity, feminism, domestic violence, and homosexuality. Another important theme was Roseanne's dominance in raising her children and husband Dan (John Goodman) joking that his wife "wore the pants" in the family, but deep down inside loving her as she is.
