Pace is everything with Roseanne. She is a person that hates a premeditated presumed rehearsed life, no matter what the consequences are, which is so refreshing. I'm so tired of living in silos made up by the Jones family next door. As pedantic as this show was it was their story, not the story it was supposed to be according to society, that was always the lesson with this show; be yourself. Everything from season 1 felt like a good story and now we see why. It was all a fabrication of her broken robbed heart. I really liked this ending, more so for the actors than for me. There is nothing worse than saying goodbye and this was a story ending that no one had to say goodbye but just accept life and see what the next day day gives, no matter how sad, unscripted, and powerless to change. Seeing a woman powerless to roll back time on that couch, on that last scene was a picture of defeat and acceptance. Another story of never having the life we dreamed of when young but never given in to being anything except our genuine self. Refreshing, sad, and regretful yet somehow powerful at the same time. I liked it!
