Which show do you prefer Married... With Children or Roseanne ?
Personally i think Married... With Children is superior too Roseanne in every way possible.

Married with Children. I think it's one of the funniest comedies I've seen. And totally shameless. I bought the complete series on dvd a few months ago and I wonder how a show like that would work on tv today.
I was never a fan of Roseanne. I tried it many times. I could never get into it. So I have probably only seen around 30 episodes or so.

That's a very good match up, and usually I prefer the slapstick style, but Roseanne was better without being slapstick.
I like both a lot, but Roseanne had much more to offer on every level, even the comedy level. I think my favorite bit was when the little boy complained about the two sisters picking on him, his mom asked what he thought they should do about it. "Kill them!" he said. Cracked me up. (Don't get me wrong. I wouldn't go for actual killing, but the boy saying this, knowing no one would really do it, well that was funny).

I quite enjoyed them both but I think Rose anne was better. But I gave up.on both well befor e their runs ended, they went on too long, like lot of sitcoms.

Married with Children was funnier overall. Roseanne felt with issues better...but I don’t think MwC ever tried.

Roseanne's final season sucked.
But prior to that, it was the best written show on TV.
Married w/ Children will always make me laugh

I like Roseanne more though I also enjoyed Married With Children. Roseanne did have a bad final season, but I recall Married With Children got weird later on and the dog started talking.

I think its an apples and oranges comparison. Roseanne had comedy, but dealt with serious things that life brought to the table. Married With Children had comedy, but was more or less a farce and was never really serious about anything.

They each had a different wheelhouse, but both were very good. |

To me they are very different shows. Married with Children is satire and plays it for laughs. Roseanne actually thinks/though(?) she was making a serious social statement with her show. Roseanne talks down to her audience as she is a wealthy person doing a poor imitation of a lower working class family. Married with Children on the other hand is over the top at times but never condescends.

I watched and enjoyed both. Like all shows, some seasons were better than others. I hated the Roseanne reboot, didn't laugh once. I think the show will be much worse without her.

Never really liked either. Married was more tolerable.
