^ The May 1997 episode of Roseanne with 16.6 million viewers referenced was the series finale at the time of recording, but no longer is; the 2018 revival is considered a continuation of the original series, not a separate one. * Andy ruled that since the title of The Tonight Show (Starring/with) [host] changes with each change in host, this answer was correct. |
