Lloyds' Credit Card Spend Is Paying Off
City scribblers had little to praise for Lloyds Banking Group when it unveiled its £1.9 billion deal for credit cards business MBNA just before Christmas.
But analysts at Barclays stuck their necks out and hailed the acquisition, which had been viewed as an expensive gamble after the Brexit vote.
They admitted that the UK's economic outlook was brighter than expected after the referendum and predicted the MBNA deal, along with higher interest rates, should lift Lloyds' net interest margin, the banking industry's profit benchmark, by more than expected.
"Although the outlook for the UK economy remains uncertain, only limited deterioration is expected in unemployment, which is the main driver of credit card provisions," argued Rohith Chandra-Rajan, who called the deal "a good use of capital".
Chandra-Rajan, who hoisted his profit forecasts by 15% for this year and next, also expects Lloyds to dish out more than £10 billion, almost a quarter of its market value, to shareholders over the next couple of years.
Lloyds shares were up 1.24p, or 2%, to 65.89p as Barclays upgraded the shares to overweight, although it could not prevent the FTSE 100 from drifting 8.13 points lower to 7187.18.
On the FTSE 250, doorstep lender International Personal Finance slumped by 11.3p to 164.6p as the Polish authorities ruled it must pay back taxes, which it plans to appeal.
Just outside the mid-cap index, engineer Fenner jumped 33.01p, or 14%, to 269.51p after a strong first quarter.
Investors dialled into iPhone supplier Imagination Technologies, which rose 6.37p to 249.87p after hiring Mark Dickinson, boss of ARM's chips unit, to run its own graphics chips business.
Investors liked the sound of Gear4music's trading update as Andrew Wass, chief executive of the online guitars-to-drum kits seller, hiked full-year profit expectations for the second time in three months, lifting the AIM-listed shares 5p to 505p.

We design and implement programs that reduce costs, protect people and the environment, and ensure the benefits of clean and efficient energy use reach those who need them most. This "triple bottom line" approach—and the holistic solutions that result—makes us unique.
Elevate Energy seeks to create a world in which everyone has clean and affordable heat, power, and water in their homes and communities―no matter who they are or where they live. In doing so, we will significantly mitigate the climate crisis and improve the economic health of communities.
We want to work with everyone we can to help them reduce their energy costs—from homeowners, renters, and building owners, to nonprofit organizations, utilities, and municipalities, we're creating programs that pair relevant technical solutions with education and outreach to improve energy efficiency in a major way, and create benefits for everyone.
Download a brochure about Elevate Energy, or watch our team show you what we're all about.
That's enough to run 4,263 refrigerators for one year!
That's enough to heat 11,013 average apartment units for one year!
That's the same greenhouse gas emissions released from 15,012 average passenger vehicles every year.
We can talk about smarter energy use all day, but we're making sure we hold ourselves to the same standards.
Our first office was a 1920's weaving factory, which we renovated to the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED Platinum status in 2005, making it the second building in Chicago to achieve this level of designation.
At our current home in Chicago's West Loop, we improved our space to achieve LEED Certification at the Gold Level.
How is Elevate Energy funded?
We're funded through a mix of grants and contracts. Foundations support some of our programs. Utilities and government agencies hire us to implement their programs or provide technical assistance. We also provide consulting services to building owners and developers.
Can anyone sign up for your programs?
Definitely! We want to work with anyone and everyone to save energy. That said, we are most focused on ensuring economically disadvantaged communities receive the benefits of clean and efficient energy use.
We want to spread smarter energy use far and wide, and we'll work just about anywhere to make it happen! See where we're currently working. If you have a project you'd like to collaborate with us on, get in touch.

Find Unbroken Fellowship with God
Draw Closer to God With Germaine Copeland's Scripture-Based Prayer Devotional
Word Ministries would like to let everyone know that Germaine Copeland's newest book 365 Days to a Prayer Filled Life is now available.
Here is today's reading.
Where Is God?
It's easy to question God when tragedy strikes. My friend
Sandy Clark wrote of her own journey through pain: "When
we lost our baby, I was angry, disappointed, and depressed. A
mess emotionally, I blamed myself and questioned my faith.
There were no words to express my grief to God; I couldn't
pray. So I cried out, repeating the name of Jesus, nothing
more. God taught me that when our faith falters, He remains
faithful. I read about St. Teresa of Avila who suffered physical
pain for many years. In her quiet moments with God, she
created a mental 'garden of prayer.' She would retreat into this
garden when her pain was unbearable. She developed four
steps of 'watering' her garden: stillness, meditation on God's
Word, prayer for union with God, and receiving God's love
through faith. St. Teresa never received physical healing in this
life, but her garden of prayer and daily watering produced
much fruit. When I retreat to a quiet place with God and use
St. Teresa's four steps, receiving His love brings peace and healing
for my wounded, broken heart."
O my LORD, You are a shield for me, my glory, and the
One who lifts up my head. I cried to the Lord with my
voice, and He heard me out of His holy hill. Thank
You for leading me and carrying me in Your arms.
Scripture References: Psalm 3:3 (NKJV); Psalm 28:9
(TLB)
Suggested Bible Reading: Psalm 139:1–13
365 Days to a Prayer-Filled Life will remind readers everyday that prayer can make a difference, God's promises are true, and His mercies are new every morning. For those longing for a deeper, more intimate relationship with their Father, this book will help believers reconnect with God through a vibrant prayer life!

The Transformation Of Denver's Front Door

For the last 75 years, the gateway to downtown Denver has been a mass of industrial warehouses that don't project the image of the hip and progressive city civic leaders have tried to portray in recent years.
But with the redevelopment of the North Wynkoop industrial warehouse and distribution campus into a vibrant residential, office and entertainment complex, that is about to change.

Near the intersection of Brighton Boulevard and Interstate 70 just south of the National Western Stock Show complex (also undergoing renovation), the North Wynkoop development will have a live-music venue, offices and residences surrounding a large outdoor plaza.
Project developer Westfield Co. is extending Wynkoop Street into the project. Because the street, which spans three city blocks, will be privately owned, Westfield can shut it off to vehicular traffic and program the street with live music, festivals and other events, said Newmark Knight Frank Managing Director Matt Davidson, who is marketing the site.

North Wynkoop Street will go all the way to Zeppelin Station," Davidson said. "It's a living, breathing thing."
The centerpiece of the project is the Mission Ballroom, slated to hold its first still-to-be-announced concert in August. Operated by AEG Presents, which owns or manages some of metro Denver's best theaters, the Mission Ballroom will have a flexible stage allowing for a capacity ranging from an intimate 2,200 people to a maximum capacity of 2,950, unrivaled sight lines and the latest technology for sound and lights.
"It will look sold out at any capacity," AEG Presents Rocky Mountains CEO Chuck Morris said at the time the project was announced.
Directly across the plaza from the Mission Ballroom, 4180 Wynkoop, a 90K SF office and retail building with views of downtown Denver and the Rocky Mountains, is under construction. The three-story building is a short walk to the 38th and Blake light-rail station, giving tenants access to Denver Union Station within 10 minutes. One company already has committed to lease part of the third floor, said Davidson, declining to reveal the name of the tenant.
The site, which can accommodate up to 1M SF of office space in both new and existing buildings, will have about 500 residential units, including affordable housing; artists' studio and gallery space; and pop-up, in-line and open-market retail. There also will be a boutique hotel, restaurants, bars, breweries and coffee shops.
While North Wynkoop will be a pedestrian-only street, Westfield is building two new streets for access into the site: 41st and 42nd streets. 41st Street will connect to the neighborhood's newly revamped Globeville Landing Park and the future River North Promenade. The street will run between the Pepsi Bottling Co. and a pair of buildings Westfield owns across the street from the North Wynkoop development.
Westfield recently moved its offices into the 10K SF building across from North Wynkoop. It is renovating the 14K SF building next door, where it is hoping to attract an office or creative tenant, Davidson said. The development firm also would move across Brighton to office space at North Wynkoop if a potential tenant wanted to create a campus environment on the site.
"It could be ready in six months," Davidson said.

German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier's 4-day visit from today, to boost bilateral tieshttps://indianexpress.com/article/india/german-president-frank-walter-steinmeiers-4-day-visit-from-today-to-boost-bilateral-ties-5106407/
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier's 4-day visit from today, to boost bilateral ties
During the visit, Steinmeier will be accompanied by a CEO delegation, Indologists and a media delegation.

German President in India: Frank Steinmeier meets Sushma Swaraj, to later hold talks with PM Modi
Frank-Walter Steinmeier elected as new president of Germany
German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier will visit India from March 22 to 25 to strengthen bilateral ties. This will be his first visit to India as the President of Germany after the Angela Merkel government took charge in Berlin on March 14.
A statement issued by the German Embassy said: "The German Head of State will talk with Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi and other high-ranking politicians, such as Vice President Venkaiah Naidu and Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj." Steinmeier will also hold talks with representatives of Indian civil society, science and industry, the statement said.
During the visit, Steinmeier will be accompanied by a CEO delegation, Indologists and a media delegation. He will be officially welcomed by President Ram Nath Kovind and his wife in New Delhi. Apart from Delhi, Steinmeier will also visit Varanasi and Chennai.
"India's relationship with Germany is amongst our foremost relations, bilaterally and in global context. After having established Strategic Partnership since 2000, successive governments on the two sides have endeavoured to broaden and deepen this relationship. This has found expression in having biennial Summit level Inter-Governmental Consultations (IGC), which Germany has with select countries only," a statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs said.
According to the MEA statement, India's current priorities in most areas match with German expertise, such as renewable energy, skills development, Smart City, water and waste management, cleaning of rivers, railways, etc. These could be synergised for tangible, result-oriented outcomes, it said.
Germany is India's largest trading partner in Europe and the sixth largest trading partner in the world, while India was ranked 24th in Germany's global trade. In 2016-17, the bilateral trade turnover was US$ 18.76 billion. In 2016-17, India exported goods worth US$ 7.18 billion to Germany and imported goods worth US$ 11.58 billion. Germany is the seventh largest foreign direct investor in India. Cumulative German FDI in India from April 2000 to December 2017 is $10.71 billion or 2.91per cent of total FDI.
There are over 15,000 Indian students in Germany and around 800 German students are doing their internship or studying in India (2017). The number of Indian nationals in Germany is 108,000 (German Ministry of Interior, 2017) and the number of PIOs in Germany is about 73,000, mainly comprising of technocrats, small businessmen/traders and nurses.

Samsung Galaxy F22 coming in July with Helio G80
Samsung is gearing up to introduce a new smartphone dubbed Galaxy F22. According to rumors, the device should be launched initially in India. The market has been one of the key markets for the F-series that does not have the same availability as the Galaxy A or M series smartphones. The Galaxy F22 has visited multiple certification websites recently. Now, a new report from IndiaTV suggests that the Galaxy F22 will reach the Indian market in the second week of July. In addition, the device has passed by Google Play Console.
According to the report, the Galaxy F22 will reach the market in the second week of July. The device will come with a price tag below INR 15,000. It will be sold through the Flipkart platform just like other F-series smartphones. According to rumors, it will draw its powers from a 6,000mAh battery. However, there are some reports suggesting that this is a rebranded Galaxy A22. This won't be the first time that Samsung decides to go with a rebranding route.
Galaxy F22 alleged specifications
The company will reveal more details about the smartphone in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, the smartphone's specifications have leaked via the Google Play Console website. The handset will feature a MediaTek Helio G80 SoC with 4 GB of RAM and Android 11 OS. The Helio G80 carries two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at up to 2.2GHz and six power-efficient ARM Cortex-A55 cores clocked at up to 1.8 GHz. The SoC is paired with a Mali G52 GPU under the hood. It's not the most powerful out there, but the game can even run some popular games with medium settings. The variant listed on the Google Play Listing runs Android 11-based One UI 3.0 straight out of the box which hardly is a surprise right now.

In terms of optics, the new smartphone will have a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with an HD+ resolution of 1,400 x 720 pixels. Thankfully it will also have 90Hz refresh rate support. The smartphone will also pack a Quad-Camera setup. It comprises a 48 MP camera, and other three camera sensors. There is an 8 MP ultrawide camera, a 2 MP depth-sensing module, and a 2 MP macro unit. The device also has Bluetooth 5.0 with LE and Dual-Band Wi-Fi.
We are curious to see if the Galaxy F22 will manage to become a hit in the Indian market. After all, the competition in this segment is growing exponentially. Especially with the arrival of cheap 5G smartphones.

Friends came round for a meal this week, who – when they arrived – were not in the best mood. Largely because, their daughter had been given a detention. A five hour detention. And the reason that she had been given a five hour detention, was that she was eating an easter egg, which she had been given by a teacher, for good behaviour. So, she waits until the end of the lesson, unwraps the crème egg and eats it on her way to the next lesson – but en route she is arrested by Darth Vader and escorted to the detention block where she had to stay for five hours! Other detentions were handed out for arriving at school late, for a girl wearing her hair band around her wrist, and a boy who turned up to school in odd socks.
By George: The trouble that follows on from eating an easter egg. The school of course, are proud of what they call a zero tolerance approach, that left 20 percent of the school in detention throughout the course of the school day, in the run up to GCSE exams. One class had only one pupil left in it! Zero tolerance is not the only phrase containing the word 'zero' that would adequately describe such a policy.
On these Sunday evenings, we are looking at the problem of suffering and violence throughout Scripture. We have looked at the context of the Creation, the Exodus, and then the settlement of the promised land. This week we are looking at what it means to hold on to that promised land, from others whose gods have promised it to them as well.
Well, the story so far is that, the descendents of Abraham have been in slavery in Egypt for centuries. Then finally, Moses leads them to freedom, and Joshua leads them into the promised land: But there are other people already living in this land… the Canaanites. And they are gradually being extinguished. But this is a beautiful land, the land flowing with milk and honey, and everyone wants to get their hands on it. The Philistines are a warrior people from city states beside the sea side, who start attacking the land.
So – Samson prays, and two pillars are taken down, killing three thousand people. That's not the last time in history that two great pillars supporting an entire infrastructure of worship, have come tumbling down to kill three thousand people! Samson was a one man al-quaida terrorist attack. According to Scripture, that is what happened – and it looks as though it is sanctioned by God.
Although the text doesn't actually say that – the way the story is read suggests that God himself gave his strength to Samson to perform this atrocity. In what ways is this attack different from the worst terrorist attack in modern history? Should we think again before putting cartoons of Samson into bible stories for kids as a healthy role model, who – though having been a bit of a tearaway – returns to God at the end of his life, as his final great act shows!
Of course, from a twenty first century position of comfort and luxury, it's easy to look back upon all this and tut and shake your head and speak of how barbaric it was. But, if you were a child of Abraham living in this era, you would be living in fear. And when your enemies are defeated, and not only defeated but utterly wiped out so that there are no children left to grow up and exact revenge – I would imagine that you would be grateful.
So, living in a world of sheer violence, I think you would express that gratitude to God! And it hardly needs spelling out, that we are – in fact – no different. When we thank God for the privileges we have in this country; when we thank God for the security with which we live; for the fact that we always have food and shelter! And who would complain about that. But keep looking: look at what it means to thank God for the luxuries we enjoy: for the holidays, for the nice cars, for the comforts that we can all-too-easily take for granted. When we do that … should we not look, at the same time, at why it is we enjoy all these luxuries? Should we not look at why the goods we buy are so cheap, the holidays we enjoy are within our grasp; the homes we own are worth so much.
Because when you scratch the surface and begin to look at these things, so many of our luxuries are bought at the cost of massive suffering for other people. Now, these are issues that we look at regularly at Bloomsbury, and I'm not suggesting that we should be in a constant state of guilt and shame. But simply to say, if you shake your head at the Samson story, and then thank God for your comfortable life – there is a huge if unacknowledged inconsistency!
All this, is to say that – it strikes me that these violent stories of Scripture, when read properly, show us a mirror. They serve as a parable … getting us to nod and cheer or shake our heads and jeer, before realising that we are cheering or jeering at ourselves – and the rug is pulled from under our own feet! That is the way Scripture works – and it seems that this is precisely what is happening when we read this passage in the light of all that follows it!
The zero tolerance we see in the Israelites, the zero tolerance we see in the Ely school are desperate grasps at security when you feel unable to control a situation. You might be forgiven for regarding the school as a miniature Libya …. And if you look at the school's own website and receive the schools own messages, you know that this zero tolerance approach is for everyone's good! That is the story that is told, because the school have the power to control how their story is told.
It is exactly the same with these violent texts from the Old Testament … they tell the story, because it is their story. But in the overall narrative of Scripture, these stories are not the end … they have further consequences and further twists in the narrative that will cause them to be read in a new light. And that is the challenge that we are left with – with our liftestyles and habits and assumptions and commitments – they are so natural to us, we take for granted their givenness – but will we have the courage to hear our stories read in the context of other people's stories…. Or is our own approach one of zero tolerance?


You are looking at a passenger's side side skirt for a 95-96 Mitsubishi Eclipse. These came only on the 95-96 Eclipse GS, GST, and GSX. It is in great condition!!! It came from a 96 eclipse. I also have the driver's side but I don't have the fender caps for them. I will combine shipping if you buy more than one part.

Sarfaraz Khan not in Team India squad for Australia Test series after record breaking first-class performance
Indian squad for Australia series: Team India has been announced for the first two matches of the four-match Test series starting in February between Australia and India (AUS vs IND). Here the whole team was selected according to the expectations but Mumbai batsman Sarfaraz Khan once again got disappointed. He has been performing consistently for the last three seasons in domestic cricket. His batting average in first class cricket is 80+.
Sarfaraz Khan has so far scored 3380 runs in 52 innings of 36 first class matches. His batting average here has been 80.47. During this, he scored a total of 12 centuries and 9 half-centuries. He has also scored a triple century once. For the last three seasons, his bat has been on fire in first class cricket. This batsman scored 928 runs at an average of 155 in 2019-20. After this, in 2021-22, he once again scored more than 900 runs at an average of 123. He is also playing big innings in the 2022-23 season.
Seeing this wonderful performance of this 25-year-old young batsman, everyone was hoping that Team India would not be able to ignore him in the Test series against Australia. Earlier it was also being said that Sarfaraz will definitely play in the Test series against Bangladesh, but this player is facing back to back disappointment.
Indian Test team against Australia is like this
Rohit Sharma (captain), KL Rahul (vice-captain), Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KS Bharat (wicketkeeper), Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), R Ashwin, Akshar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Mo. Shami, Mohd. Siraj, Umesh Yadav, Jaydev Unadkat, Suryakumar Yadav.

Orthodontists are dental specialists who diagnose and treat problems with the position, alignment or spacing of the teeth, and related irregularities in the face and the jaw. A number of special treatments, including braces and other oral appliances, are used to correct these problems.
Why should I (or my loved ones) get orthodontic treatment?
There are two good reasons: aesthetics and function. Having an attractive smile not only changes the way people see you — it enhances your own self-image as well. Orthodontic treatment also allows your teeth to function better and makes it easier to keep them clean, which can improve your overall health.
When should orthodontic treatment be started?
You're never too old to begin orthodontic treatment — but if you start at an earlier age, your problems may be easier to treat. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that a child who may need orthodontic treatment should come in for a first visit around age 7.
How can I recognize a potential bite problem?
Teeth that are protruding, crowded together or erupting out of position are clear indications that treatment is needed (View Examples). Less obvious signs are mouth breathing, frequent biting of the cheek or palate, speech difficulties, and thumb sucking that goes past 3-4 years of age. If teeth don't meet properly when the mouth closes, or if jaws make sounds or shift as they move, this may also indicate an orthodontic problem.
Does getting braces hurt? What about wearing them?
Having braces put on is generally painless. Some people experience minor aches and pains in the first couple of days or so, as they adjust to wearing their appliances; periodic adjustments may sometimes cause soreness as well, though it typically lasts only a short time. Over-the-counter pain relievers can be used to alleviate any discomfort, but are usually unnecessary.
How long will treatment take?
It's different for each person, but generally the active stage of treatment (that is, wearing braces or other appliances) may take from 6-30 months. After that, a retainer is worn for at least several months more.
How often will I come in for an appointment?
It depends on what's being done, and how often you need to be monitored. During active treatment, you'll typically visit the office once every 4 to 10 weeks.
Will I need to have any teeth extracted?
If your teeth are severely crowded (because your mouth is too small to properly accommodate all of them) — or if you have impacted teeth (teeth that are trapped beneath the gum line by other teeth) — then extraction may be necessary. In the case of younger patients, early treatment may make extraction unnecessary.
Will I have to watch what I eat?
Yes — you should pass up the types of foods that could damage or become trapped in your braces. Some of these include raw vegetables, hard candy, caramel, taffy and ice cubes (fortunately, ice cream is OK). You will receive a list of foods to avoid.
Will I be able to play sports/ play my instrument?
In a word: Yes. Of course, whether you wear braces or not, we recommend you wear a mouthguard when playing most sports. Musicians are generally able to play their instruments just as they did before, but they may need a short adjustment period after getting braces.
Do I still need to see my regular dentist while I'm getting orthodontic treatment?
You do — in fact, it's more important than ever! Keeping teeth free of plaque (and potentially, decay) can be challenging when you're wearing braces. Your dentist can help you avoid these problems with frequent cleanings and exams.
Will I wear a retainer when my braces come off?
Almost always, the answer is yes: If you don't wear a retainer, your teeth can rapidly shift out of position — and then all the effort put into your treatment is lost! Your retainer helps you maintain that good-looking smile for a lifetime.
Is orthodontic care very expensive?
Orthodontic care is a long-term investment in your health and well-being. Yet its cost hasn't increased as fast as many other consumer prices, and many financing options are available that make orthodontic care affordable. Weighed against the true cost of living with problem teeth, however, orthodontic treatment can be a wise investment indeed.

Roseanne ist eine US-amerikanische Sitcom, die von 1988 bis 1997 vom Sender ABC produziert wurde. In Deutschland war die Serie ab 1990 auf ProSieben zu sehen.

Von März bis Mai 2018 wurde die Serie mit einer zehnten Staffel fortgesetzt. In Deutschland war die Ausstrahlung der Neuauflage im Spätsommer 2018 auf dem Disney Channel geplant. Nach der Absetzung der Serie durch ABC gab man allerdings bekannt, die Serie nicht mehr auszustrahlen. Wiederholungen der Originalserie wurden auch aus dem Programm genommen. Die Serie wurde kurz darauf ohne die titelgebende Hauptfigur in Die Conners fortgesetzt.

Inhalt
Im Mittelpunkt der Serie steht die Arbeiterfamilie Conner, die in der Delaware Street 714 im fiktiven Ort Lanford, Fulton County (Illinois) lebt und aus Mutter Roseanne (Roseanne Barr), Vater Daniel, genannt Dan (John Goodman), und den Kindern Rebecca, genannt "Becky" (Alicia Goranson/Sarah Chalke), Darlene (Sara Gilbert) und David Jacob, genannt "D. J." (Michael Fishman), besteht. Später kam Sohn Jerry Garcia dazu. Dieser wurde an Roseannes Lieblingsfeiertag Halloween geboren.

Die Handlung dreht sich hauptsächlich um die größeren und kleineren Probleme des Alltags und schließt auch Themen wie Arbeitslosigkeit, Geldsorgen, überstürzte Heirat der Kinder und Scheidung nicht aus. Diese Probleme lösen die Conners mit ihrem etwas anderen Humor.

Hintergrund
Der Humor der Serie basiert auf der Hauptdarstellerin Roseanne Barr, die in den 1980er Jahren als Stand-up-Komikerin bekannt wurde und durch ironischen Galgenhumor, mit dem sie als Roseanne ihren nicht immer einfachen Lebensalltag bestritt, eine typische US-amerikanische Frau der unteren Mittelschicht bzw. der Arbeiterschicht (working class) darstellte. Dies markierte auch, zusammen mit der etwa gleichzeitig produzierten Serie Eine schrecklich nette Familie, eine Wende weg von der "heilen Welt" der Huxtables.

In der letzten Folge der neunten Staffel stellt sich heraus, dass die gesamte Serienhandlung nur auf Roseannes Aufzeichnungen über ihre Familie beruhte und insbesondere die neunte Staffel in ihrem Ablauf und Inhalt nur ihrer Phantasie entsprang. Vorbereitet wird diese Wendung durch Rückblenden auf die Einrichtung von Roseannes Schreibzimmer im Keller. Roseanne gibt sich am Ende der letzten Folge aus dem Off als Autorin zu erkennen, die den Verlust ihres Ehemanns mit ihrem Schaffen verarbeiten wollte und die Geschichten nach ihrem Belieben umgestaltet hat. Zum Beispiel hat sie die Partner ihrer Töchter vertauscht, weil sie glaubte, so passten die Paare besser zusammen. Die neunte Staffel lässt sich so im Nachhinein psychologisch deuten. So ist z. B. Dan häufig abwesend und es werden verschiedene Arten des Verlusts angespielt (Ehestreit, Fremdgehen, Darlene bekommt ein Frühchen, Dan stirbt beinahe). Zwischen der von Roseanne erzählten Serienhandlung und der "wahren" Conner-Geschichte gab es folgende Unterschiede:

Die 2018 gesendete zehnte Staffel ignoriert die Existenz der neunten vollständig: Weder haben die Conners im Lotto gewonnen, noch ist Dan gestorben.

Figuren

Roseanne
Anfangs arbeitet sie bei Wellman Plastics. Ihr dortiger Vorgesetzter Booker Brooks wird gespielt von George Clooney. Dann kommt ein mieser Job als Telefonzeitschriftenverkäuferin und als Shampoogirl im örtlichen Schönheitssalon. Danach ist sie Kellnerin im Restaurant eines Einkaufszentrums. Schließlich gründet sie zusammen mit ihrer Schwester Jackie, ihrer Mutter Beverly und Freundin Nancy ein Fastfood-Restaurant, die Lanford Lunch Box. Nach einem Streit mit Roseanne und Jacky verkauft Beverly aus Rache ihren Anteil an der Lunch Box an Roseannes ehemaligen Chef Leon.

Dan
In der ersten Staffel arbeitet Dan als Trockenbauer in seiner eigenen Firma Four Aces Constructions und träumt davon, in seiner Garage sein eigenes Boot zu bauen. Dieses wird aber nie fertiggestellt. Später hat er einen Shop für Motorräder. In diesem Shop gibt er Beckys Freund Mark einen Job als Mechaniker. Später ist er Leiter der Werkstatt der Stadt Lanford für Stadtfahrzeuge. In dieser Werkstatt arbeitet auch wieder Mark und Jackies späterer Mann Fred. Diesen für US-Verhältnisse guten und sicheren Job kündigt er, um mit Freunden in seinem ursprünglichen Fachgebiet zu arbeiten und zu helfen, ein Gefängnis zu errichten. Bei Darlenes Hochzeit erleidet er einen Herzinfarkt, den er überlebt. In der letzten Folge stellt sich heraus, dass Roseanne nur ein Buch schreibt und Dan im "wirklichen" Leben an diesem Herzinfarkt verstorben ist.

Jackie
Roseannes Schwester arbeitet zunächst auch bei Wellman Plastics. Später ist sie Polizistin. Nachdem sie im Dienst verletzt wird, wird sie Lkw-Fahrerin. Auf einer ihrer Touren entdeckt sie das Schnetzelfleisch-Sandwich, woraufhin sie mit ihrer Schwester das Restaurant Lunchbox eröffnet. Jackie hat während der ganzen Zeit mehrere Männerbekanntschaften, die mehr oder weniger ernsthaft sind. Dazu gehören zum Beispiel Männer wie ihr Chef Booker (George Clooney) bei Wellman, Gary, mit dem sie in der Phase als Cop zusammen ist, oder Fisher, der sie misshandelt. Während der Serie (6. Staffel) bekommt sie mit Fred ihren Sohn Andy. Später heiraten die beiden. Doch dann kommt es zu unüberbrückbaren Differenzen und die Ehe geht in die Brüche.

Becky
Die älteste Tochter der Conners liebt es einzukaufen und sie telefoniert liebend gern. Sie interessiert sich sehr für Jungs und geht des Öfteren mit einem Jungen aus. In einigen Folgen gerät sie, weil ihre Telefonrechnung sehr hoch ist oder sie zu spät nach Hause kommt, mit ihrer Mutter in Streit. In den ersten Staffeln streitet sie sich auch gern mit ihrer Schwester Darlene, weil sie sich ein Zimmer teilen müssen. Im Unterschied zu Darlene ist sie eine sehr gute und engagierte Schülerin. In der dritten Staffel lernt sie Mark Healy kennen, mit dem sie später durchbrennt und den sie heimlich heiratet. Als sie in der sechsten Staffel dann wieder zurückkehrt, zieht sie in einen Trailerpark.

Darlene
Darlene ist ein sehr sportliches Mädchen. Sie trägt nur im absoluten Ausnahmefall mal einen Rock oder ein Kleid und ist sehr jungenhaft. Becky versucht in solchen Ausnahmefällen (Verabredungen, Bälle, …) ihr zu helfen und sie für die Waffen einer Frau zu begeistern, jedoch fühlt sich Darlene sehr unwohl in dieser Rolle als Girly. Sie spielt lieber Basketball und wirft öfters mit ihrem Vater im Hinterhof ein paar Körbe. Zunehmend offenbart sie jedoch auch künstlerische Kreativität und einen kritischen Geist. Sie zieht am Ende der 5. Staffel für drei Jahre von zu Hause aus, um an einem College in Chicago zu studieren. Als sie später Marks Bruder David kennenlernt, verliebt sie sich in ihn. Am Ende der 8. Staffel heiraten sie, da Darlene schwanger ist. Auf der Hochzeit erleidet Dan einen Herzinfarkt. Darlene bekommt eine Tochter, welche aber viel zu früh geboren wird. Den langen Kampf um das Leben im Brutkasten gewinnt ihre Tochter und wird in den letzten Folgen entlassen. Darlene nennt das Kind nach den drei Frauen-Generationen in der Serie "Harris Conner Healy".

D. J.
David Jacob "D. J." Conner ist bis zur Geburt seines kleinen Bruders Jerry Garcia in der 8. Staffel das jüngste Kind der Connors. Er leidet oft unter den Sticheleien seiner beiden älteren Schwestern. In der Schule hat er des Öfteren Probleme bekommen. In der 5. Staffel ist er derjenige, der sich den Namen Lunchbox für das Restaurant der Familie ausdenkt.

Handlung

Staffel 1
(1988–1989, 23 Episoden, # 2 US Nielsen Ratings)

Zu Beginn der Serie arbeiten Roseanne, Jackie und Crystal am Fließband der Plastikwarenfirma Wellman. Jackie ist kurzzeitig mit dem Wellman-Abteilungsleiter Booker Brooks liiert. Dan findet sporadisch Arbeit als Trockenbauer und muss mit seinem verantwortungslosen Vater Ed zurechtkommen. Roseannes und Jackies Eltern Al und Beverly überlegen, nach Lanford zu ziehen, entscheiden sich aber dagegen. Darlene ist hin- und hergerissen zwischen ihrem Image als coole Sportliche und ihrer Weiblichkeit, als sie ihre erste Periode bekommt. Becky hat ihren ersten Freund Chip, den sie wegen Jimmy Meltrigger verlässt. Als die Staffel endet, gerät Roseanne in einen großen Konflikt mit dem neuen Wellman-Abteilungsleiter Mr. Favor und kündigt bei Wellman; mehrere andere Mitarbeiter (darunter Jackie und Crystal) tun es ihr gleich.

Staffel 2
(1989–1990, 24 Episoden, # 1 US Nielsen Ratings)

Roseanne hält sich mit Gelegenheitsjobs als Zeitschriftenverkäuferin per Telefon, Sekretärin für Dans Boss, Bardame in der Lanforder Kneipe LOBO, Bedienung in einem Imbiss und "Mädchen für alles" im örtlichen Schönheitssalon Cindy Lou über Wasser. Jackie wird Polizistin. Dans Poker-Freund Arnie (Tom Arnold) gibt sein Debüt in der Serie. Die Conners feiern Halloween, was zukünftig zum festen Bestandteil der Serie zählt. Zu Thanksgiving bemerkt Dan die Romanze zwischen seinem Vater und Roseannes Freundin Crystal. Jackie verlobt sich mit ihrem Freund Gary. Becky begehrt zunehmend gegen die Autorität ihrer Eltern auf. Darlene entdeckt ihr Talent zum Schreiben, als sie einen schulischen Gedicht-Wettbewerb gewinnt. Auch Roseanne will ihren alten Traum von einer Schriftsteller-Karriere verwirklichen, weshalb Dan ihr im Keller einen eigenen Raum einrichtet; sie wird aber vorerst nicht dazu kommen.

Staffel 3
(1990–1991, 25 Episoden, # 3 US Nielsen Ratings)

Roseanne glaubt, dass sie schwanger ist, und macht deshalb einen Test, der jedoch negativ ausfällt. Sie findet eine feste Anstellung im Restaurant des Lanforder Einkaufszentrums Rodbell's, wo sie mit ihrer Kollegin Bonnie Freundschaft schließt, aber im Clinch mit dem schwulen Restaurant-Manager Leon Carp liegt. Nachdem Jackie bei einem Einsatz gefährlich verletzt wird, trennt sie sich von Gary, weil er ihren Beruf nicht mehr akzeptieren kann. Becky lernt Mark Healy kennen, den ihr ihre Eltern zu sehen verbieten. Dans Vater Ed heiratet Roseannes Freundin Crystal, die zudem auch schwanger von Ed ist. Roseanne befindet sich in einer Fehde mit ihrer neuen, scheinbar snobistischen Nachbarin Kathy Bowman. Roseannes Großmutter Nana Mary tritt erstmals zu einem Familien-Barbecue in der Serie auf. Dan eröffnet nach dem Besuch seines alten Biker-Kumpels Ziggy das Lanford Custom Cycles, eine Reparaturwerkstatt für Motorräder mit angeschlossenem Verkaufsraum.

Staffel 4
(1991–1992, 25 Episoden, # 2 US Nielsen Ratings)

Die Staffel beginnt damit, dass Becky ihre Mutter mit dem Wunsch nach der Anti-Baby-Pille überrascht. Nach einem erfolglosen Job als Parfümverkäuferin lässt sich Jackie zur Truckerin ausbilden. Dans und Roseannes Freunde Arnie und Nancy heiraten in Las Vegas. Darlene entwickelt sich zu einem introvertierten Teenager und beginnt sich schwarz zu kleiden. Roseannes Nachbarin Kathy Bowman zieht mit ihrer Familie weg. Nachdem sie eine lange Zeit starke Rückenschmerzen geplagt hatten, unterzieht sich Roseanne einer Brustverkleinerung zur Entlastung des Rückens. Das Rodbell's-Restaurant, in dem Roseanne arbeitet, wird rationalisiert. Arnie verlässt Nancy unter dem Vorwand, "von Außerirdischen entführt" worden zu sein. Darlene lernt Marks jüngeren Bruder David kennen und schmiedet mit ihm gemeinsame Zukunftspläne als Comicschöpfer.

Staffel 5
(1992–1993, 25 Episoden, # 2 US Nielsen Ratings)

Dan, der Beckys Freund Mark im Lanford Custom Cycles einstellen konnte, muss seinen Laden schließen. Becky und Mark brennen durch und heiraten heimlich. Nach einer halbherzigen Versöhnung ziehen Becky und Mark nach Minnesota, um dort Arbeit zu finden. Roseanne und Jackie bekommen von ihrer Mutter jeweils einen Scheck über 10.000 US-$. Zusammen mit Beverly und Nancy gründen sie das Fast-Food-Restaurant Lanford Lunch Box, dessen Verkaufsschlager das sogenannte "Schnetzelfleisch-Sandwich" ist. (Beverly gibt ihnen dabei wiederum finanzielle Unterstützung unter der Bedingung, Teilhaberin zu sein.) Nancy outet sich als lesbisch. Die Tildens, ein alleinerziehender Vater mit zwei Töchtern in Darlenes Alter, ziehen neben den Conners ein. Jackie wird von ihrem wesentlich jüngeren Freund Fisher misshandelt, bis Roseanne und Dan dem ein Ende setzen. Roseannes und Jackies Vater Al stirbt. Auf den Rat von Roseannes erfolgreicher Cousine Ronnie hin bewerben sich Darlene und David an der Kunstschule von Chicago, doch nur Darlene wird angenommen. Nachdem Roseanne die kaputte familiäre Situation der Healys miterlebt, stimmt sie Darlenes Vorschlag zu, David bei ihnen wohnen zu lassen, während dessen frisch geschiedene Mutter nach Michigan zieht. Dan fällt nach einem großen Sanierungsauftrag auf einen Scheckbetrüger herein, kann aber von Jackie vor dem finanziellen Ruin bewahrt werden, indem sie das sanierte Haus kauft. Obwohl Roseanne zunächst große Zweifel hat, lässt sie Darlene schließlich zum Studium nach Chicago ziehen.

Staffel 6
(1993–1994, 25 Episoden, # 4 US Nielsen Ratings)

Unter Roseannes Druck, die Lunch Box zu verlassen, gibt Beverly ihre Anteile an der Lunchbox aus Rache an keinen Geringeren als Roseannes ehemaligen Chef Leon ab. David schlägt Darlene vor, dass sie sich verloben, doch Darlene verneint das. Unter dem Vorwand, sich mit seiner Mutter versöhnen und ihr nach Michigan folgen zu wollen, gelangt David ebenfalls in Darlenes Chicagoer Studentenbude und wohnt solange bei ihr, bis es Roseanne herausfindet und ihn zur Heimkehr zwingt. Roseanne wird von ihrer Vergangenheit als Gewaltopfer ihres Vaters Al eingeholt, als sie DJ verprügelt, weil er ihren Wagen gestohlen hat. Becky und Mark kehren zurück und ziehen bei den Conners ein; Mark soll eine Ausbildung absolvieren, die er jedoch aufgibt. Dan und Mark finden lukrative Arbeitsplätze in den Lanforder Stadtfahrzeugwerken. Jackie wird von Dans Kumpel Fred schwanger. Nachdem sie ihn lange Zeit abgewiesen und ihren gemeinsamen Sohn Andy zur Welt gebracht hat, heiratet sie Fred schließlich. Dan wird mit der psychischen Labilität seiner Mutter Audrey konfrontiert, als diese in ein Heim eingewiesen wird.

Staffel 7
(1994–1995, 26 Episoden, # 10 US Nielsen Ratings)

Obwohl Dan und Roseanne schon lange daran gearbeitet haben, auch noch ein viertes Kind zu kriegen, überrascht es sie sehr, als Roseanne plötzlich schwanger ist. Darlene und David trennen sich, finden jedoch nach einiger Zeit wieder zusammen. Becky und Mark ziehen auf einen Trailerpark. Jackie und Fred erkennen nach einer Odyssee von Ehe-Therapien, dass sie nicht zueinander passen, und lassen sich scheiden.

Folge 19 der 7. Staffel ist eine Best of Folge, in der Mütter aus anderen TV-Serien einen Gastauftritt haben: Barbara Billingsley aus Erwachsen müßte man sein (Leave It To Beaver), June Lockhart aus Lassie und Verschollen zwischen fremden Welten (Lost in Space), Isabel Sanford aus All in the Family und Die Jeffersons, Alley Mills aus Wunderbare Jahre sowie Pat Crowley aus Please Don't Eat the Daisies.

Staffel 8
(1995–1996, 25 Episoden, # 17 US Nielsen Ratings)

Zu Roseannes Lieblingsfeiertag Halloween wird ihr Sohn geboren, den sie nach ihrem Lieblingsmusiker Jerry Garcia benennt. Leon heiratet seinen Freund Scott und Roseanne gestaltet daraus eine überdrehte Schwulenhochzeit. Becky und Mark geraten in Streit, da Becky ohne Absprache trotz gemeinsamer Kinderplanung heimlich die Pille nimmt und daran denkt nun doch zu studieren. Mark befürchtet, dass er dann als gewöhnlicher Mechaniker nicht mehr gut genug für sie sei und sie ihn später deswegen verlassen könnte. Dan beschließt, seinen sicheren Job bei der Stadt aufzugeben und sich wieder seinem alten Bautrupp anzuschließen, um das neue Gefängnis, das außerhalb von Lanford gebaut werden soll, mit aufzubauen, um mehr Geld zu verdienen. Mit dem Rentengeld und dem letzten Scheck, den Dan erhält, als er seinen Job aufgibt, beschließen er und Roseanne, mit der ganzen Familie in den Urlaub nach Walt Disney World zu fahren. Als Darlene anschließend herausfindet, dass sie von David schwanger ist, heiraten die beiden, doch der Hochzeitsabend endet in einer Katastrophe, als Dan einen Herzinfarkt erleidet. D. J. rettete das Leben seines Vaters, indem er mit Herzdruckmassage Erste Hilfe leistete, bevor der Krankenwagen eintraf. Als sich Dan danach erholt und sich trotz Roseannes voller Unterstützung nicht an die ärztlichen Anweisungen wie gesunde Ernährung und Sport hält, kommt es zwischen den beiden zu einem heftigen Streit, bei dem viele Konflikte und Ressentiments der gesamten Ehe wieder hochkommen. Wütend verlässt Roseanne das Haus und geht zu ihrer Schwester Jackie.

Staffel 9
(1996–1997, 24 Episoden, # 35 US Nielsen Ratings)

Die letzte Staffel steht im kompletten, teilweise sehr surrealen Gegensatz zum bisherigen Serienverlauf, weil die Conners einen Lottogewinn von 108 Mio. US-$ machen und sich nun endlich ein Leben in Luxus leisten. Dan grübelt fortan schwermütig über den Sinn des Lebens nach und bringt seine Mutter in einer besseren Nervenklinik in Kalifornien unter, Jackie trifft auf ihren "Traum-Prinzen", D. J. hat seine erste Freundin Heather, Roseannes Mutter Beverly offenbart sich als Lesbe, und Darlene bringt ihre Tochter Harris als Frühgeburt zur Welt. Dan, der eine kurze, belanglose "Romanze" mit der Krankenpflegerin seiner Mutter hat, gerät darüber in einen schweren Konflikt mit Roseanne. Nach einer vorübergehenden Trennung vertragen sie sich aber wieder, und man erfährt am Anfang der letzten Folge, dass Becky von Mark schwanger ist und beide sich freuen, es den anderen bald sagen zu können.

Doch die letzte Folge offenbart am Ende überraschend, dass Roseanne als die eigentliche "Autorin ihres Lebens" vieles der vergangenen Staffeln, besonders aber der letzten, erfunden hat und einige Handlungsstränge völlig anders hätten verlaufen müssen. So ist Dan in Wahrheit zum Zeitpunkt der letzten Folge bereits vor einem Jahr – also in Staffel 8 – an den Folgen seines Infarkts verstorben. Roseanne hat Dans Affäre daher erfunden, da sie sich von ihm betrogen fühlt, weil er sie einfach in der Welt alleine gelassen hat. Auch den Lottogewinn hat es nie gegeben. Des Weiteren ist nicht Beverly, sondern Jackie lesbisch, Darlene ist in Wirklichkeit mit Mark verheiratet, Becky hingegen mit David. Die letzte Folge steht im starken Kontrast zur Serie, da sie die Handlungsstränge durcheinander wirft, und ist bei Fans der Serie bis heute sehr umstritten. Als die Serie 2018 wieder aufgenommen wurde, wurden die Ereignisse der neunten Staffel einfach ignoriert.

Besetzung
Die ersten fünf Staffeln und einige Folgen der sechsten Staffel wurden bei der Plaza Synchron GmbH in München vertont. Die restlichen Folgen synchronisierte die Beta-Technik, ebenfalls in München. Die Dialogbücher schrieb Hartmut Neugebauer. Für wenige Folgen der dritten Staffel wurde er von Josh Hartmann vertreten. Die Dialogregie übernahmen Günther Sauer (Staffel 1), Hartmut Neugebauer (Staffel 2), Hans-Jürgen Diedrich (Staffel 3), Pierre Franckh (Staffel 4) und erneut Hartmut Neugebauer (Staffel 5 bis 9). Die Synchronisation der zehnten Staffel wurde aufgrund der abrupten Planänderung des Disney Channels, wegen der Distanzierung zur Hauptdarstellerin (siehe Staffel 10), bisher nicht veröffentlicht. Die Stimmen der Staffel nahmen jedoch an der Fortsetzung Die Conners wieder teil.

Erwähnenswertes
 In der ersten Episode der Serie mit dem Episodentitel Life & Stuff mimte Sal Barone (Junior) den D.J. Conner. Als 8-Jähriger wurde Sal Barone für die Rolle des D.J. Conner gecastet und bekam die Rolle. Jedoch nahm Sals Mutter ihn, nach Problemen mit Darlene-Darstellerin Sara Gilbert, aus der Besetzung der Serie heraus. Seine Rolle übernahm bis zum Schluss Michael Fishman. Sal Barone (Junior) spielte nie wieder in einer Fernsehproduktion mit.
 Der ursprünglich geplante Titel der Serie lautete Life & Stuff.
 Roseanne Barr und Laurie Metcalf waren während der Dreharbeiten tatsächlich schwanger. Ihre Schwangerschaften wurden jeweils in die Serie eingebaut.
 In der 11. Episode der 7. Staffel erwähnt Roseannes Arzt, dass sie mit einem Mädchen schwanger ist, obwohl sie in der folgenden Staffel einen Jungen gebärt. Dieses Ereignis wird jedoch schon in der 7. Staffel angedeutet, da am Ende der 11. Episode der Sohn von Jackie und Fred als Mädchen, also mit anderem Geschlecht, gezeigt wird.
 1993 stieg Becky-Darstellerin Alicia Goranson aus der Serie aus und wurde durch Sarah Chalke ersetzt. 1995 kehrte Alicia Goranson für ein Jahr zurück, nur um danach die Rolle erneut an Sarah Chalke weiterzugeben.
 Roseanne Barr trug am Anfang der Serie häufig ein weißes T-Shirt mit Hühnern und einem Ei im Motiv – bis zur Hochzeit mit Tom Arnold, dem Produzenten der Serie. Er hasste das Shirt und ihm zuliebe verschwand das Shirt. Nach der Scheidung von Tom trug sie das Shirt dann in jeder Folge. In Folge 5.25 trug sogar jeder Schauspieler der Besetzung das Shirt einmal.
 Bei einigen Quellen werden nur 221 Folgen angegeben, da manchmal die Best-of-Folge "Alles über Rosey" aus der 7. Staffel zu einer 44-minütigen Folge zusammengefasst wird. Durch die Trennung zu zwei 22-minütigen Folgen sind es aber 222 Serienfolgen in Serienlänge.
 Eine Art Spin-off der Serie gab es mit der kurzlebigen Zeichentrickserie Little Rosey, die die Abenteuer der 8-jährigen Roseanne zeigten.
 Mit Johnny Galecki, Sara Gilbert, Laurie Metcalf und Sara Rue (in der Rolle der jungen Roseanne) spielen vier Darsteller aus der Serie auch in The Big Bang Theory mit.

Neuauflage

Staffel 10

Im April 2017 wurde bekannt, dass eine Neuauflage mit acht Episoden geplant war. TV-Newcomer Ames McNamara sollte den achtjährigen Mark, den Sohn von Darlene und David, spielen. Neben Roseanne Barr traten auch Sara Gilbert, John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Michael Gianna, Johnny Galecki und Lecy Goranson auf. Sarah Chalke, die abwechselnd mit Goranson die älteste Conner-Tochter Becky verkörperte, spielte in der Fortsetzung eine neue Serienfigur. Neben ABC, das die Originalserie ausstrahlte, waren zunächst noch weitere TV-Sender und der Video-on-Demand-Anbieter Netflix interessiert. Am 16. Mai 2017 wurde bekannt, dass die Serie auf ABC ausgestrahlt werden solle. Im Oktober 2017 wurden Fotos von ersten Proben (Table Readings) verbreitet. Auch die 90-jährige Estelle Parsons und Sandra Bernhard waren in den neuen Folgen zu sehen. In einer Werbepause der Oscarverleihung 2018 wurde ein einminütiger Trailer über die Neuauflage gezeigt. Bemerkenswert ist, dass die Serie die Ereignisse der umstrittenen 9. Staffel übergeht: Dan Conner lebt daher noch.

Am 27. März 2018 wurde die erste der neun Episoden auf ABC ausgestrahlt. Der Erfolg übertraf alle Erwartungen. Nach Ausstrahlung der ersten beiden Folgen der zehnten Staffel verlängerte ABC die Serie Ende März angesichts sehr guter Einschaltquoten für eine weitere Staffel. Die Verlängerung wurde jedoch Ende Mai wieder zurückgezogen, nachdem die Hauptdarstellerin Roseanne Barr eine allgemein als rassistisch gewertete Kurznachricht über das Aussehen von Valerie Jarrett, einer ehemaligen Beraterin von Barack Obama, verbreitet hatte, in der sie geschrieben hatte, die Politikerin sehe wie das Kind eines Affen aus. Barr war bereits zuvor durch Wortmeldungen aufgefallen, in denen sie sich als Anhängerin der rechten Verschwörungstheorie um QAnon präsentierte. Zudem hatte für Aufsehen gesorgt, dass die von Barr gespielte Serienfigur als Unterstützerin von Donald Trump gezeichnet wurde.

Die Conners
In der Folge des Skandals um Barr wurden die Verträge mit den übrigen Crewmitgliedern zunächst aufgelöst. Ab Anfang Juni 2018 verhandelten die Produzenten aber erfolgreich über ein Spin-off der Serie unter neuem Namen und kündigten Dreharbeiten für den Herbst 2018 an. Die Handlung der neuen Staffel, die den Titel Die Conners bekam, sollte um die Figur der Darlene Conner aufgebaut werden; die Handlung sollte sich unter anderem darum drehen, wie die Familie mit dem plötzlichen Tod von Roseanne Conner umgeht. In den Verhandlungen ging es u. a. um die Abgeltung der Urheberrechte Barrs an der Serie. Im Oktober 2018 wurde mit der Ausstrahlung der neuen Serie begonnen, die meisten Darsteller wirkten wieder mit.

DVD-Veröffentlichungen
Alle neun Staffeln sind auf DVD erschienen, sowohl einzelne Staffelboxen als auch als Komplettbox.
