Oh: in 1997 Gilbert was in 'Sports Theater with Shaquille O'Neal'.
Let's see: Before 'Roseanne' Gilbert had two acting credits: an ABC Weekend Special, and 'Calamity Jane' a TV Movie when she was seven.
Then: Sara Gilbert appeared in 228 episodes of 'Roseanne.'
After: guest roles on various shows -- the biggest seeming to be a stint on ER from 2004-2007, and a few failed sitcoms.
What Gilbert also has appeared on in 2018:
2018: 'Living Biblically': "An adaptation of the non-fiction book by A.J. Jacobs, in which a man tries to live in accordance with the Bible's teachings as close as possible."
Cancelled after eight episodes. "The show has struggled in the ratings since its Feb. 26 premiere. It opened with a 0.8 rating among adults 18-49 and hasn’t gone higher since then; through eight episodes it’s averaging a replacement-level 0.7 the night it airs, along with 4.21 million viewers....It’s the lowest-rated comedy CBS has aired this season."
2018:'Jane the Virgin': "A young, devout Catholic woman discovers that she was accidentally artificially inseminated..." Gilbert is not the young devout Catholic woman; she appeared in one episode.
Example ratings: "670,000 total viewers and a 0.3 demo rating,.."
In contrast, the 'Roseanne' reboot: "...on Tuesday night, the show finished as the No. 1 program in primetime among adults 18-49, the coveted demo advertisers care about. It averaged a 2.6 Nielsen overnight rating... Among total viewers, Roseanne averaged 10.2 million."
So 'Roseanne' is her main claim to fame: it is what gave her a career, and it is what brought her back to prominence as an actress; on her own, not so much.
And now she throws Roseanne Barr under the bus over a bad Tweet.
From an Althouse post yesterday: "Why do some women have NO female friends?"
Oh: in 1997 Gilbert was in 'Sports Theater with Shaquille O'Neal'. Without Roseanne I don't believe she would have ever had the chance to get that sterling credit.
