Theatrical Release Information:
Roseanne: Season 03

Season three of Roseanne opened following the media frenzy surrounding the infamous baseball game where Roseanne slaughtered the National Anthem on television. Married to Roseanne in 1990, Tom Arnold makes a few guest appearances and starts writing episodes as well. The Conner family's problems with money escalate in this season, when Dan (John Goodman) gives Arnie (Tom Arnold) a loan right before he finds himself in debt. Dan also gets injured at work and Roseanne starts working at the coffee shop. Becky's (Lecy Goranson) behavioral problems escalate significantly as she gets sent to the principal's office, runs away from home, throws a party, and steals Dan's motorcycle with her boyfriend, marking the first appearance of Mark Healy (Glenn Quinn). Darlene (Sara Gilbert) goes to her first school dance and develops an interest in boys, but she still would rather play baseball than wear a dress. Dan's father, Ed (Ned Beatty), proposes to their family friend, Crystal (Natalie West), who is pregnant with his child. Also, Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) becomes a full-fledged police officer and breaks up with her boyfriend, Gary (Brian Kerwin). The season ends with Ziggy's (Jay O. Sanders) return to Lanford and the birth of the motorcycle shop. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide
