Darlene had that slap coming since 1989 lmaoo

[Stone_XX]

She slapped Darlene so hard she went back to season 3

“Don’t you ever touch my mother!” Kiddo, she just slapped your mother deep into another dimension!🤣🤣🤣

Jackie gave Darlene the, “Sit yo’ ass down slap” 😆😂🤣

[athenagriego]

That's the slap Becky needed when she was a teenager.

It's still jarring to see Peg Bundy sitting on another sitcom's couch.

I’ve said it on other Roseanne videos and I’ll say it here - Laurie Metcalf works mainly in the theatre in stage plays. If you *ever* have the opportunity to see her live in *any* play, take it. Doesn’t matter what the play is. That woman is a force of nature on the stage. Even if the play isn’t great, she is almost always captivating and electric.

Debbie has a better life here than she ever experienced in the Gallagher house 😂

Can we give Laurie Metcalf a standing ovation for her acting please. 👏👏👏👏👏

Aunt Jackie fried that jaw!
Intense scene with terrific acting!

[viperleader]

Broke my heart to see Aunt Jackie do that to Darlene, but she did tell the truth about what Roseanne was doing to help her sister.

[smcjones]

This was everything for those of us who watched the original show.

[SSBB]

Honestly the way Laurie yelled “YOU THINK YOU CAN REPLACE ROSEANNE?!” I don’t think she was acting

[Nillon]

Jackie doing what someone SHOULD have done to Darlene three decades ago!!

[ladyfranklin]

I never saw this when it aired and I must have watched it 20 times in a row. I actually had tears in my eyes, it was so real. Fantastic acting, fantastic job, ladies!

[SamSoundly]

Metcalf is a freaking legend. Such a phenomenal actress.

[mikedoherty]

There's a lot going on with Jackie in this scene. What makes Darlene's jabs so devastating is that there's a hint of truth in everything she says. Remember Jackie survived an abusive childhood and fell into the same routine with Fisher, who she only left because Roseanne was there to hold her hand. When she lets one fly it's the same cycle all over again, and you can see it in her eyes, she's horrified at where she let herself go the second after she did it. Laurie Metcalf acted the hell out of that scene.

[PaulosTheGamer]

Oh, you have to love the automatic child reaction "I hate you" then someone smacks your mother "DON'T TOUCH MY MOTHER!" That was the best part of this scene here.

[CrazanityOfficial]

The fact that Jackie immediately regretted what she did shows that despite the feud, she still cares about her niece.

[JP-oszo]

After that slap I can hear that laugh of Roseanne in the intro
