What happened to Roseanne?
Just look at the other reviews and it will tell you that this cricket-chirping static snoozefest is horrible. "The liberal goddess," says one. "I had a problem with the conservative audience of jerks," announces another. These people aren't judging this show on its humor, they're applauding its slogans. (You people should go check out Margaret Cho's lame DVDs since she's another incredibly unfunny comic who just bashes everything left of Hollywood).
I recently watched the Rodney Dangerfield DVD collection and saw Roseanne's debut on one of Rodney's HBO specials. She was fresh, funny, she had an instant persona.
I have no idea who this woman is now. Just another Left Coast limousine liberal scoring points on a pay channel where Bill Maher and Bunny Ranch prostitutes reign supreme. I laugh at any comic that's funny, no matter what political affiliation they may be...they just have to be funny.
If Roseanne hadn't appeared so self-righteous and arrogant about her screeds (one could hardly call them jokes), I would've felt sorry for her.

Roseanne is back to her roots with stand-up comedy in this HBO filmed comedy special.
I have always been a huge fan of Roseanne Barr. Her TV show portrayed the rise of the feminine power after generations of the mother being either secondary or irrelevant or in the case of many sitcoms non-existent or dead.
I believe that many women succumb to cancer and other "diseases of modern life" because of two things: one is plastics, they give off something called xenoestrogens which among other things have been poisoning our society for generations. This leads to the production of too much estrogen in females and males. This leads to early puberty for girls and feminization/sterility of boys. Too much estrogen also leads to cancer for women.
The other thing that causes cancer is emotional suppression/repression. Wake up! women of the world, take back your power, mothers shape their daughters and sons, don't be selfish and die leaving the subsequent generation to be robots and clones for the corporations and religious fascists!
How is this relevant to Roseanne you ask? Well she has been one of the loudest voices of not just neo-liberal feminism but rather HUMANISM. She has been trying for decades to rally the troops to fight the RIGHT and keep religion out of our "****ing children's heads" as she would put it.
Roseanne has been like a mother to me since my mother could not parent worth a damn, she succumbed to the disease of patriarchy and corporate culture.
Roseanne has always been as she said "loud and proud" and I have always admired her stance on many issues over the last couple decades. She is a friend to the lost and disenfranchised, she tried to open up the closets of America and say hey you homos and lesbians! know what? you are fine with me.
I bought her DVD Rockin with Roseanne because I wanted my daughter to know Roseanne at a young age. She is a true heroine and icon for many liberals and center lefts. She has had singing lessons and is not a bad singer. Her version of MY WAY brought tears to my eyes because she has never been afraid to rile up all the chickens in the hen house. And that is what much of society has been reduced to, corporate chattle with no soul or minds. Wake up liberals is what Roseanne has been saying all along.

It seems that since her tv show Roseanne has been lacking in her standup. Her old stuff was hilarious but then getting a cable tv show seemed to chang all that.
Yet she is absolutely hilarious in this special. At times she seems to be too preachy with some of her material (namely the government) but since I see both sides of things it didn't bother me so much. A lot of her material was on the floor funny but some was just boring, unfunny and trying too hard to be witty and failing.
Overall if you like her and her stuff and can laugh at a plethora of subjects, then watch this. If you can't take a joke at face value, stay away; it might offend you and your beliefs.

It will do a heart good to find that Roseanne Barr is still funny.
Barr careens around society, skewering religion, diets, mental illness and drugs, getting old and parenthood. And, yes, like many other frustrated liberal comics, Barr can't resist explaining her hatred for Pres. Bush.
In an interview featurette on the disc, Barr says 9/11 was the impetus for getting off her butt and performing her new material. That also explains her show-stopping, fear-conquering finale, with a courageous kimono-dropping tapdance and her own take on Frank Sinatra's "My Way."
Don't miss the extras, especially two seemingly improvisational sketches that find Barr backstage before the show as straight woman to a heavily-made-up transvestite makeup artist and an absurd motivational coach who mixes so many metaphors, numbers and symbols that his message is deliciously stupid.
