it was weird when they changed beckys on roseanne, but I got used to her and didn't like when og becky came back

The flipflopping made it worse. But I liked Sarah better either way.

I find it kind of sketch that Camren didn't come back to play Selina. She said it was her decision but I dunno...

Charles Melton is cute enough but Ross Butler is a babe. They downgraded with that one.

I think it made sense for someone else to play mid-20s Selina. They would have done a terrible job making Camren look older. Jim and Harvey literally looked the same even though they could have given Jim some grey hair and Harvey a new hairstyle or something. The real tragedy here was the constant recasting of Ivy and the last one don't even having the correct red hair. It looked brownish most of the time.

Every single choice they made for Ivy in that show was downright bizarre tbh.

god, the injustice given to ivy... i liked her potential but she was so unstable on the show bc of her various iterations. she's such a great character and i enjoyed gotham as a whole, but they really fucked her up.

i found that the camren recast weird just bc i think david was still playing bruce in the finale? icr.

Not sure why the brought up Selina on Gotham (which was fairly understandable in the time jump and the recast was a decent look a like) and not the multiple recasting of Poison Ivy's during the series

i adored gotham but god they really destroyed ivy with all those recasts. it’s a shame bc i liked all three different iterations of the character, but it was such an incoherent character arc lmao

as someone who only ever watched roseanne in reruns (tho i think i've seen every ep), i thought sarah chalke played becky for way longer than a season and a half on her original run.

I thought she was the only Becky. I never watched the show
