Season 9

The ninth and final season features many changes. The theme song was remixed (from its original tune, which had been played on saxophone, accompanied by drums, and other instruments, which had been altered throughout the seasons) and performed by Blues Traveler with a distorted harmonica-a staple sound of Blues Traveler-playing in place of the saxophone, and lyrics were added and sung into the theme by John Popper. The Conners win the state lottery jackpot of $108 million, Dan ponders the meaning of life, Jackie meets her prince, D.J. finds love, and Darlene gives birth. Most surreal of all is the season's final episode, in which Roseanne reveals that the events in most of the series were all the pages of her writings. The reality is Dan's heart attack had killed him, the Conner family had not won the lottery, Becky had married David instead of Mark, Darlene had married Mark instead of David, and Jackie is gay instead of Roseanne's mother being gay. ^[6]

The show is a story written by Roseanne Conner about her life as working class matriarch. To cope with life, Roseanne twists major elements of her life for the story, which the audience doesn't find out until the final moments of the series.
