Summary
The premiere of this comedy series about Roseanne and Dan Conner, a working-class couple who live in Lanford, Illinois, and their three kids, D.J., Darlene, and Becky. Roseanne has trouble juggling her schedule to make time for her responsibilities as a mother and her job as a factory worker. She persuades her supervisor to let her take time off work so that she can pick up a new bookbag for Becky and meet with Darlene's teacher about her disruptive classroom behavior.
