714 Delaware St. is a podcast about the original series of Roseanne and The Conners.

Latest Episodes:

714 Delaware St. — S2 E12: Loving Throuples, Missing Crystal Mar 08, 2020
Show notes

In our latest episode, we recap the Conners season 2, episode 14, “Bad Dads and Grads,” in which Darlene and Ben ponder having a baby (or he forces her to ponder, depending on your perspective), Jackie ponders joining guest stars Jennifer Grey and Clark Gregg in a throuple, and Dan works through his anger toward his late father and reconnects with Ed Jr. (“little Ed”), his father’s son with Crystal. We express skepticism about Darlene and Ben’s baby-making haste and complete enthusiasm for Jackie’s potential new lease on love, but focus mainly on Dan, looking back at the two-part classic episode from Roseanne season 3, “The Courtship of Eddie, Dan’s Father”/”The Wedding,” which tells the story of Ed Sr.’s marriage to Crystal and her pregnancy. We parse inconsistencies in the storyline from then to now, and wonder why Crystal (our beloved Natalie West) can’t come back and clear up this mess. As always, we also indulge in some tangential discussions — of our favorite Leap Day TV episodes, the creepy genius of Flowers in the Attic, and our love of sweaters (plus, you won’t want to miss Katherine’s rendition of John Denver’s “Rocky Mountain High”). Join us!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E11: If I Were Dwight Feb 28, 2020
Show notes

Hey listeners! After a short delay, we present to you our most recent discussion of two recent episodes of The Conners, which we’re calling, “If I were Dwight.” In this, we take on “Live from Lanford,” the live episode written around the New Hampshire primaries – a fun and successful effort in live broadcasting, we think. We do feel sad about Dan and Louise’s breakup, but we also think it’s a little weird that everyone acts like her 3-month tour is such a lengthy time away. Like, why can’t she go on tour AND stick it out with Dan, you know? Harris is still an a-hole, but Mark is a cutie pie. The main thing, though, is that our friend Dwight is such a PAL to Louise and to Dan, and he’s really delivering the goods in terms of Lanford’s Steel Magnolias spinoff. We also discuss the episode following, “Brothers, Babies, and Breakdowns,” in which Ben gets really intense about wanting a baby all of the sudden. While we think he’s a Hot Dad, we think he’s putting way too much pressure on Darlene to do something she doesn’t want to do. Dwight, again, is perfect as he shows up, breaks down, and pulls through (in that order) for the Lunch Box as Lanford’s next big stew chef. Thank goodness! Lastly, we freak out about the appearance of Little Ed, Dan’s brother and Crystal’s son, who calls on Dan to help him deal with the aftermath of Big Ed’s death. HOLY CRAP. But, wait, what? Where IS Crystal? We hope you listen and enjoy as you catch up with The Conners along with us!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E10: Girlfriends, College Costs, and the Artist Formerly Known as Jackie Feb 09, 2020
Show notes

We’re back with another installment chatting about season two of The Conners! Join us as we discuss the latest episode, “Mud Turtles, a Good Steak, and One Man in a Tub” (a lengthy title which we’ve matched with one of our own), in which a storyline about Harris’s college prospects and the daunting cost of tuition brings us back to Roseanne’s roots in its mostly sharp commentary on socioeconomic issues. Plus, we celebrate Jackie’s new friendship with Cheryl Hines as Dawn (who starts out seeming like a “gal-pal” but ends up a mere girlfriend), and her unexpected artistic talent, which reveals itself in a “wine and painting” class. Finally, we mull over Louise’s ultimatum to Dan, and consider how nice it would be if her band would just play on the show with David Crosby, already. Stick around too for our tangents on Black Mirror, Quantum Leap, student loan debt, and Katherine’s (amazing) bigfoot-related artwork.

714 Delaware St. — S2 E9: Why Won’t Wyatt Eat Mayonnaise? Jan 29, 2020
Show notes

Thanks for meeting us back here in 2020, friends. We kick off the year by discussing the most recent Conners episode, “Throwing a Christian to a Bear”—kind of a “bear” of a title, if you ask us. It makes sense, though, since we are presented with a nearly Biblical parable about what happens when a midwestern Christian guy in Green Bay gear presumes the right to judge a group of Chicago Bears devotees. Where does this guy get off? He’s the worst. And he has a weird hatred of mayonnaise, considering he’s a WHITE CHRISTIAN GUY FROM THE MIDWEST. We do some “whatcha been watchin’?” catching up at the beginning, and naturally, we go in pop culture circles as we pick apart the episode. We wonder about this “Lanford Cannibal” Ben tells us about, after his and Darlene’s strange Sunday visit to the bank, and we wonder about what critique of the show the writers might be responding to when they write Dan’s speech about the need for some form of joy at the end of a soul-grinding workweek. Wyatt certainly deserves the riot act, since he gives Dan (DAN!) a “lift yourself up by your bootstraps” lecture about what a waste of time sports are (again, while wearing full Packers gear). We pair this episode, as always, with an original Roseanne episode, this time, “Becky, Beds, and Boys,” wherein we first meet the disrespectful little shit who would become Becky’s darling husband, Mark. It’s too fun! Join in!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E8: Have Yourself a Moldy, Jobless Christmas Dec 16, 2019
Show notes

On our latest episode, we recap 2019’s final installments of the Conners, “Lanford, Toilet of Sin” and “Smoking Penguins and Santa-on-Santa Action,” analyzing Jackie’s inner struggle over the fate of the Lunchbox, Darlene’s job and daughter woes, the triumphant return (sort of) of the sexily tousled Jay R. Ferguson as Ben, and the family’s strange new tradition of wearing Santa suits to the mall. We delight in appearances from Paul Reubens (aka Sandy Buttinsky aka Pee-Wee) and “zombie Bev”, shake our canes at that ungrateful whipper-snapper Harris, and share our thoughts on subjects ranging from Gumby to mice to dumpster-diving to what exactly they put inside an Orange Julius. Tune in – and happy holidays!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E7: Slap That Turkey! Nov 28, 2019
Show notes

Thanksgiving is upon us, with an OPEN HAND. In this episode, we cover the dramatic holiday episode of The Conners, “Slappy Holidays,” wherein voices are raised not in mirth and merriment, but in anger and probable tequila drunkenness. Jackie, Darlene, and Harris are all at their worst, while the rest of the family copes with the mayhem. In the episode, a delayed dinner and too much booze leads to a MAJOR blowout, culminating in a SLAP, that brings us back to the history of abuse in the Harris family. It’s painful, emotional, upsetting, and therefore utterly true to the holiday, and to the original series. We also revisit classic Roseanne Thanksgiving episodes and the history of delightful melee among the Conners and Harrises. Highlights include turtleneck philosophies, tales of Maura’s talent show exploits, and Conner memories in garage stories. Please enjoy!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E6: Stew of a Kind Nov 19, 2019
Show notes

In the sixth episode of our second season, “Stew of a Kind,” we discuss the latest Conners episode, “Tempest in a Stew Pot,” which finds Becky and Jackie plotting to open a new restaurant in the old Lanford Lunchbox — one that, improbably, serves only stew. Darlene, who holds the keys to their dreams in the form of power of attorney, rejects their idea, leading to a rift that sends Becky packing and on her way to Jackie’s house. We look deeper into Jackie and Becky’s close relationship over the years, analyzing a season 3 Roseanne classic, “Becky Doesn’t Live Here Anymore,” in which Becky goes to stay with the single-and-swingin’ Jackie while fighting with her parents over Mark. We explore Darlene’s evolution from a mature child to the Conners matriarch, who in some ways has taken Roseanne’s place — at Jackie’s expense. Come for the analysis and stay for our tangents, from the story of Katherine’s first tattoo (it involves a toilet, an ex-con and a guitar string), Maura’s brush with Elton John, restaurants that are too specific and why no one under 40 listens to Pearl Jam. Join us!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E5: Let Your Dreams Come True! Nov 09, 2019
Show notes

In this episode, we discuss the semi-Halloweeny “Nightmare on Lunchbox Street” episode of The Conners Season 2. The revelation that Bev is still the owner of the building the old Lunchbox was in and that Darlene now has power of attorney over Bev gives us pause. We delight in Jackie’s justified rage at the audacity of Bev! Can you imagine—having that nest egg this whole time and STILL forcing Jackie to take care of her? Though there are some costumes, this episode doesn’t go all out on the holiday spookiness, and maybe that’s a good thing. Nevertheless, Laurie Metcalf and Lecy Goranson pull out all the stops on Jackie and Becky as detectives on the case of the lying grandma, and Estelle Parsons is probably a vampire, since she seriously does NOT AGE! Notably, we both wish the “DJ and Mary Thing” were its own episode, but we are excited to find out if the Lunchbox returns. To add to the fun, Maura has some fun Lunchbox and loose meat trivia! Thanks for listening!

714 Delaware St. — S2 E4: Darlene & David & Ben, Oh My! Oct 23, 2019
Show notes

In our 4th season 2 episode, we discuss the latest installment of The Conners, “Lanford…Lanford,” in which Darlene’s precarious love triangle with our beloved David Healy (Johnny Galecki) and sexy, hirsute newcomer Ben…something (Jay R. Ferguson) finally falls apart. In this emotional and well-paced episode of The Conners, Darlene and David finally share some real talk about their relationship (and David confirms he can’t change a tire without Siri’s help). This leads us to look back at D & D’s relationship throughout the classic Roseanne series, in particular the season 5 episode “Playing with Matches” in which interference by perky Conners neighbor Molly Tilden prompts the couple’s first breakup. Laugh and (nearly) cry along with us as we cling desperately to Darlene and David’s long-term prospects and look to what the future holds for Darlene. As usual, we take the listener on a string of proper tangents related to Halloween, made-for-TV Movies of the Week, Sister Hazel and other dentist-office music, and more.

714 Delaware St. — S2 E3: A Not-So-Bizarre Love Triangle and a Not-So-Ugly Baby Oct 15, 2019
Show notes

Hey listeners! You may have noticed that we missed last week. We both had weddings to attend! But we haven’t abandoned ship – BY NO MEANS! Here, we catch up on The Conners second and third Season 2 episodes, “A Kiss is Just a Kiss” and “The Preemie Monologues.” We agree that these two episodes feel more natural and organic, and the pace feels right. Both episodes involve Becky’s struggles as a mom, both physical and financial, and deal with class and women’s issues in a way that is true to the original. Likewise, we see Darlene and David stand up for little Mark in a way that does justice to some of Roseanne Conner’s shining parental moments. Darlene’s LOVE TRIANGLE gets more cumbersome as, once again, she attempts to hide the presence of our dear David, and irresistible Ben begins to worry that Darlene needs some professional help. Dan is back to his sweet, not-so aggro self, and this time, we feel good about Katey Segal’s Louise stepping in. As usual, we get off track discussing hairstyles, Medicare for All, global warming, and whether or not Sinbad played a genie in a movie (he did not, you are thinking of the one with Shaq). And Dan Aykroyd is there for some reason! Join us!
