Chicken Shirt | A Roseanne Rewatch Podcast

WE FINALLY MADE IT to the SEASON ONE FINALE of BOTH Roseanne and Chicken Shirt!!! We start off with a nice long Roseanne Watch, where we both reflect on how this season has changed us. Alvaro teaches Sarah what it means to be "black-pilled" and that quickly becomes her whole personality. The Roseanne episode, as you all know, is SO GOOD. We discuss the bone-chilling dynamic between Roseanne and her new evil boss, and worry about the financial futures of our sweet sweet Wellman’s ladies. 

Special announcement at the end of the episode (I’ll just tell you now, we are coming back for season 2 of Roseanne in the fall :)

Alvaro finally meets Roseanne's mom and dad in this episode, and you better believe he has thoughts on each parent's specific brand of narcissism. We swiftly and thoroughly tare Beverly Harris apart, wonder if Roseanne's dad was always intended to be abusive, and find even more evidence that Jackie is a lesbian.

Alvaro and Sarah sit down to pick the brain of a real life Roseanne writer, Stan Zimmerman! He wrote for season 6 of Roseanne, as well as a number of other classic American sitcoms as featured in his book The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore. We talk all about the lesbian kiss episode, which Stan conceptualized and wrote with his writing partner, Roseanne and Tom's on-set antics, and his work on a Russian adaptation of the show?? We also get into Roseanne's recent viral hangout with RFK Jr. and much much more......

So this is the one where a traveling salesman drops dead at the Conner's kitchen table. Alvaro intuitively breaks down the genius of this episode - it's about each character's individual response to death (and bureaucracy, again). We also discuss people pleasers, big vs little spoon and of course, Darlenes new friend, Baklava Cop. Alvaro and Sarah share big news at the beginning of the episode.

We're talking about the Tornado episode! First things first - we plot out our ideal path of tornado destruction. Alvaro FINALLY graces us with his coming out story, and Sarah has a shocking update on her lingering w33d smell.

On Roseanne Watch - we talk Roseanne's feelings on Kamala Harris and her recent interview with Newsmax. It gives us a LOT of much needed insight into Roseanne's relationship with her daughters and gay siblings.

We finally found a bigger Roseanne super-fan than Sarah and its this week's guest Hunter Crenshaw from the drag House of Avalon. Hunter breaks down his fandom for us - from lonely childhood obsession to his modern day collection of Roseanne memorabilia. He spills TEA on his experiences at 5 tapings of the reboot, and the taping of the Connors premiere.

Roseanne's inner girl's girl came out this week when Country singer Ingrid Andress publicly butchered the national anthem. Roseanne can relate!

Just hanging out and catching up this week (though Roseanne DOES come up multiple times). We learn Alvaro's villain origin story (his teenage rise to TikTok micro-fame) and Sarah pitches a controversial podcast idea.

This week, Alvaro and Sarah come prepared with "Hot or Not" lists from the episode. What's Hot? Realness, as usual. And Not? Anxious attachment, restaurant jobs and the sentiment that Darlene would actually ever die of appendicitis.

On Roseanne Watch - Roseanne enlightens us with some genuinely wiiiiillddd conspiracies about Joe Biden and for some reason drags Jim Carrey into it as well lmao

WE’RE BACK from our hiatus !! In an uncharacteristic turn of events, Sarah hated the episode and shows up with a list of everything wrong with it. We wonder if Becky is poly, and whether cheating is “not a big deal anymore.” Alvaro considers fatherhood and the ticking time bomb of his own fertility.

This week Sarah and Alvaro take a break from recapping, and instead frolic down memory lane with Barry Levine - an author, investigative journalist, and former 90s tabloid reporter. He tells us about the time he crashed Roseanne's wedding to Tom Arnold, how he got booed out of a live taping of the show, and like, a lot more.

Check out Barry's books "All the President's Women: Donald Trump and the Making of a Predator," and "The Spider: Inside the Criminal Web of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell."
