Rated as one of the greatest shows of all-time by TV Guide, Roseanne was the most-watched television show in the United States in the late 1980s and early ’90s and was a top five show for the majority of its run on ABC.  Starring comedienne Roseanne Barr, who won an Emmy for her performance, the show revolved around a blue-collar Illinois family struggling to get by. John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf and Sara Gilbert also star.
