It came off as a marketing ploy and nothing that so clearly dates a show would be used if long term plans were in play .Oh if it had continued on the way the first episode did, I would have been out. That was hard to watch no matter who if anyone you supported. But it pretty much disappeared after that.
That's just my take, though. Roseanne as a person always seemed apolitical and self serving to me . I am woman heard me roar and respect me, but nuts to the downtrodden parties to which i am not a member.
Actually the original show dealt with issues in a controversial yet respectful manner, so that might not be completely fair of me to say. I just didn't see the reboot investing in the characters like the original run and their personalities were amped up and tossed out at the viewer in a ham fisted manner .
