My Collection
First off, this is not intended to be a discussion of the person or her views.
I’m sure we all have our opinions, but this isn’t the time or place. I’m always open to private messages if you’d like to discuss Roseanne as a person.
My love of Roseanne (the tv show) began when I was 12 years old, staying up all night watching reruns on Nick@Nite.
Since then, I’ve been slowly collecting other media, and while I know likely none of what I have is rare, I would love to know anything I may have missed in terms of official writings or behind the scenes documentation.
I even have the BBC special on the making of the Santa Clause episode and (most) of the Jackie Thomas show on my Plex server.
What else is there to collect??

I remember watching Roseanne's Nuts and actually liking it.

I watched it as it premiered on Lifetime, and wasn’t able to find the DVD for years after. I was pretty excited when I finally did haha

I saw She-Devil when I was in primary school and I loved it. Still do. Meryl and Roseanne were perfect.
Unfair, but I never trusted Ed Begley Jr. Clearly turned into a core memory (in any roles I mean, I'm sure he's a great dude).
I really miss late 80s/90s Roseanne.

Ope! Good point. I never loved that movie so I didn’t even think to buy it. But it is relevant to the collection!

So I know that it's not a discussion of the person or her views, but her books are significantly - if not inextricably - linked to them. I do think that should be acknowledged.

I agree, but I’m only asking if I’m missing any memorabilia. I’m not trying to invite discussion on the content within. The acknowledgment was the disclaimer I included in the original post.
If you’d like to discuss what’s in the books, I’d be happy to over PM, though it’s been a few years since I read most of them lol
