It's not like the Simpsons didn't dunk on Fox pretty regularly from the very beginning. It's also not like it could get any worse at this point.

I'm honestly hoping that Disney will just do the honorable thing and let it die, but I really doubt that since it's probably still a cash cow.

Speaking of Roseanne, Disney bought ABC in 1996 and immediately made basically every sitcom on the network do big dumb epic 2-part "The whole family goes to Disney World!" episodes, Roseanne included. The next episode they did was this: http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1996-03-14/business/9603131011_1_roseanne-hans-theme-park posted:David Healy, Darlene's boyfriend, gets a job at a Lanford-area theme park called Edelweiss Gardens, where the park's founder is kept cryogenically frozen under the park. quote:The final scene has David back home, tied up as Roseanne tries to de-program him: In another episode right after that, they made it a plot point that the unmarried David and Darlene got pregnant from having sex while at Disney World. Roseanne was a good show.

I think my personal favourite moment was Dan confronting Leon after finding out that he really was planning on ousting Roseanne from her own restaurant. "From now on, you fight your own battles! Against Roseanne... may God have mercy on your soul..."

BioEnchanted posted:I think my personal favourite moment was Dan confronting Leon after finding out that he really was planning on ousting Roseanne from her own restaurant. There were all kinds of power struggles going on between Roseanne and the show's producer. To the point where they didn't want to name the show Roseanne because it gave her too much power and even tried to kick her off the series in the first season thinking they could make the show about John Goodman. They ended up getting rid of the producer before the first season was over, but he got millions in backend profits, so I wouldn't be surprised if Roseanne was still bitter in later seasons.

John Goodman was also the title character in the animated series, "Father of the Pride," a show about the home life of Siegfried and Roy's lions which for some reason Jeffrey Katzenberg thought people wanted to watch. Especially after Roy's near-fatal mauling in 2003.

It was just a dull sitcom about lions living in a standard house from what I recall. Bolt did similar subject matter in a more interesting way. (Clarification: Not making GBS threads on Bolt, I love that movie.)

Soooo, since Disney is openly supportive of the LGBT community, do you think this will have an effect on FoxNews at all? Or is that separate?

Especially after Roy's near-fatal mauling in 2003. I've never seen this show (I remember it being advertised on Sky One when Eddie Murphy guest starred as Donkey from Shrek) but its entry on the Wikipedia article "List of television shows considered the worst" has always fascinated me, particularly the comments from Katzenberg in bold: quote:An American animated television series that revolved around a family of white lions, the patriarch of which stars in a Siegfried & Roy show in Las Vegas. The series was promoted heavily during NBC's coverage of the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece and garnered above average ratings for the network, but the show received a negative response from TV critics, who considered it to be little more than a gimmick and a shill for other NBC and DreamWorks properties (two early episodes extensively featured The Today Show's Matt Lauer and another featured Donkey – voiced by Eddie Murphy – from the DreamWorks movies Shrek and Shrek 2). Also, many TV critics noticed that the show's humor was very similar to South Park (one episode even had a character say "Screw you guys, I'm going home!"). Siegfried & Roy's reaction was more positive: "They laughed. A lot. They kept asking us to create more contradiction. Literally, one's blond and one's dark, and every aspect of their life is as black and white as that. They are always playful with one another, always playing tricks on one another. They encouraged us to have fun with that," said Katzenberg.[14] The show's ratings began to decline, and by November 2004 it was pulled from NBC's sweeps line-up.[15] In early December 2004, the CEO of DreamWorks announced that the show was canceled, a few months after it was initially aired. After all, nothing funnier than contradiction, is there? Solice Kirsk posted:Soooo, since Disney is openly supportive of the LGBT community, do you think this will have an effect on FoxNews at all? Or is that separate? They haven't bought the entire company, just the lion's share of its entertainment-oriented assets. News and sports are remaining with 20th Century Fox and will probably be consolidated into a new entity.

Goodman also had a show called Normal, Ohio where he played a construction who'd come out of the closet to his fmamily and was trying to adjust after it destroyed his marriage. I don't remember much about it other than John's character making a LOT of gay sex jokes.

The first things I saw John Goodman in were the movie version of The Borrowers and, for some reason, Coyote Ugly. He'll always be Ocious P. Potter to me.
