Summary of the Show Roseanne and How It Relates To Suburbia



Roseanne is a show which was built on suburbia and its ideals. It is set in a suburban town with a middle class family and three kids. Automatically suburbia is present. Roseanne goes through all of the problems that suburbanites go through such as money troubles, family problems, and the neighborhood's interaction in general. This show has crossed many lines on many issues in its existence to educate the suburban community that their lives are not perfect and it is okay to show that. They bust through the facade called suburbia to show issues of sex, homosexuality, family and marital problems, and unemployment. I feel that this show is the best show yet to illustrate what is and was really going on in suburbia in a truthful and tasteful fashion using humor to keep it upbeat.

Now go to my second project, Roseanne as an Illustration of Class and Family.
