Jackie and Louise Work Things Out - The Conners

After Dan asks Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) not to come to the family's 'Santa-on-Santa' night because of how she treats Louise (guest star Katey Sagal), Jackie knows she needs to do something. Jackie and Louise talk about Dan and find a little common ground when it comes to looking for love in Landford. Watch 'The Conners' TUESDAY 8|7c on ABC.

These two are such gifted actresses. If you look at each edit in this scene, you can tell it was all filmed in one take. Normally, they film each scene 3 or 4 times and then edit it together and you can tell because props are moved or change hands between takes. But their flow was so perfect.

Jackie is a mess and made her bed a long time ago. The truth is she wants Dan and was always jealous of Roseanne's marriage, because none of hers ever amounted to much.

[@TheHoopyscoopy]

That's why she never respected Dan and Roseanne's space, always visiting too much.

[@lucyinthesky4682]

They actually discussed this in an episode from the original Roseanne. Jackie and Roseanne's dad breaks his hip and Roseanne goes to help her mom to take care of her dad. It was early on, Jackie had just become a cop and was able to take time off. She spent days taking care of the house while Dan worked and Dan saw a different side of her. Jackie said she "let" Roseanne have Dan. In the episode, Dan told Jackie exactly what she was wearing the day they met and she clutched her heart but Dan is excited to get on the phone to go talk to Rosie and Jackie quietly leaves. I absolutely loved this show. I love John Goodman, he's not your conventional Mr. Pinup but he's got those qualities that would make you feel like you're the only one in the world. That adds a different allure.

[@ZetaReticuli_]

I used to like the Jackie character early on in the original series. I always felt for her, as I saw her as someone who just lost her way, and needed the right guidance. Especially after the episode when it was revealed that Fisher was abusing her. I really wanted things to change for the better for her, to find her self-respect, and someone that would love her the way she deserves to be loved. But even as the old season progressed, I began to lose empathy for her, because she just couldn't seem to dig her own hole fast enough. She seemed too insular to learn from her own mistakes. Hence why her character would be wearing a p**yhat in the reboot. In the reboots, and in The Conners, she seems to have just gotten even worse. When Darlene called her a loser, she wasn't wrong. This is in no way meant in disrespect to the actress playing Jackie. If anything, Rosanne did good picking her in that role, because she saw Laurie's talents, and fully utilized them. We really saw her acting chops during that episode when it was discovered Fisher was abusing her.

@Jenny Jen I agree, And I just love her.

[@theresabollman8061]

@Jenny Jen Here's smile for you. I'm not overly impressed with Streep I put her in the same category as Tom Hanks (& a few others) who learned early on how to play the GAME in Hollywood by kissing the Liberal (commie) asses of those who run the show there. Jen I have always believed its getting the good parts in the good movies that fives those chances for awards for great performances. Hanks came in redfaced & embarrassed about his little tv show Boosom Buddies, and he made a couple of more embarrassing movies. But in a short time he endeared himself (climber) to the powers that be in Hollywood...Speilberg, Ron Howard, the sons of Old Hollywood masters, and one by one he got the parts. Its those parts & those good writers who made it happen. Streep is/was a very vocal Liberal...it has served her well all these yrs. Lauries talent seems so much more natural, and she is never out the telling people how to vote or what to think. She's loved because she is great at what she does and is a very real and loving person.

[@theresabollman8061]

@Jenny Jen Totally agree! Laurie is there to do the work, and how well she does it! I'm going to look up her last Tony win...so glad for her. I fully agree Hanks acts the same in everything...his monotone drones on. Streep has won a lot of awards, but when you do as many movies as she has done (she seems to turn down very little) you have to hit it right once in a while. My opinion is that she is a bit too contrived in most of her parts. I catch her acting, and it ruins a movie for me when that happens...it takes me out of the movie into reality.

[@theresabollman8061]

She did make a supposed racist joke and maybe she did vote for Trump, but her history on Roseanne was always leading the way in diversity on TV with black and gay friends for the Conners and issues of gender equality. Voting for Trump because you ate a fiscal conservative doesn’t make you any of those things you said. I suppose if you think it does, then you’ll agree that voting for Bloomberg would also make you a racist and misogynist because of some of his political policies and actions in the past?
