The New 'Roseanne' Opening Has Been Released And We're Having Serious Flashbacks

Over the last few months we've been waiting for the Roseanne revival, and now that we're getting down to the wire, we've started to see even more of the new season of the classic show.

When the show ended, everyone was a little bit confused and sad. Dan was gone, and we were all pretty upset that we wouldn't be spending some time with the Conner family anymore. They were one of the great TV families and for some reason their dysfunction made our crazy lives feel normal.

It was one of those shows that you could curl up on the couch with the whole family and each enjoy it no matter how old you were. Sure, as the youngest of the family some of the jokes went over my head, but I still liked watching it with my mom and dad.

It seemed like the 90s put a lot more focus on the opening credits than shows nowadays do. It was important to set the tone of the show and that thirty-second segment was crucial. Shows today don't even have a theme song, they just string the credits along the bottom of the first few minutes.

I don't know about you, but I kind of miss the credits. But lucky for us, so does Roseanne. She's made sure that her show brings back a little touch of that classic 90s feeling, and it'll honestly bring so much joy to your heart. It honestly feels like you are traveling back in time and sitting on your mom's couch all over again.

Check out all the nods to the original credits...

We're back around the table, looking at Roseanne when Dan comes in and gives her a sweet little kiss on the cheek like he always does.

Jackie comes in, wearing the greatest sweater I've ever seen while Darlene loads up a plate for her son, before getting her daughter to come to the table.

The original Becky is back as well, and just as they all sit down, D.J. comes in his with his young daughter who runs up to her grandma and tries to steal her food.

The whole thing really feels perfectly nostalgic, while still introducing us to the new characters. Honestly, it feels pretty spot-on to what we would have wanted.

Watch the whole thing here:

Does this make you even more excited for the show, or do you still think that they should have left it all in the past?

'Beverly Hills: 90210' Revival Looks Like It Will Feature A Lot Of Familiar Faces

Who else remembers planning their entire week based on when Beverly Hills: 90210 was going to be on TV? It wasn't like we could record it easily, blank VHS tapes were pricey, so we had to watch it when it was on or miss out. Watching Brenda, Kelly, Dylan, Brandon, Donna, and everyone else hand out and get into all kinds of mayhem was the highlight of our weeks. When it ended, we were all a bit sad, but then they brought it back with a new spin-off.  The new show tried to catch that same teen spirit, but

Nickelodeon wasn't just a television network, it was basically a generation. Kids all over the country were bonded in this weird little family, obsessing over shows that our parents just couldn't possibly understand. They were for us. They weren't made to appeal to our parents, they were made for our enjoyment and so we felt a special connection to them unlike any other shows. Nickelodeon is still going strong today, but it's hard to remember that there was a time before the iconic kids network came around. The company may be a juggernaut now, but how did it get started?

Those Muppets were our teachers and our friends before we made our way into elementary school or daycare, and they gave us a lot of life lessons that taught us how to be a
