Roseanne is an American sitcom broadcast on ABC from October 18, 1988 to May 21, 1997. Starring Roseanne Barr, the show revolved around the Conners, an Illinois working class family.

Roseanne Barr had crafted a "fierce working-class domestic goddess" persona in the eight years preceding her sitcom and wanted to do a realistic show about a strong mother who was not a victim of patriarchal consumerism.
