Tropes

  • Diet Episode: For Dan and Roseanne.
  • Double Standard: Becky thinks it's okay for men to get big but women should stay thin, and stands up for Dan for getting so obese but chides Roseanne for the same thing. Becky rationalizes that "Men are supposed to get heavy when they get older but it doesn't look good on women".
  • Kick the Dog: Darlene insults both her parents who are suffering from obesity, "Aww, face it! You're both tanks!"
  • Never My Fault: Roseanne blames Darlene for making her get so fat in the first place. Darlene asks if she invented double-Dutch chocolate cake.
  • Too Dumb to Live: Dan has no idea or concern when he's gotten too obese.
