Gilbert was a cast member in the show's nine-year run (1988–97), for which she wrote a fourth-season episode story (the teleplay was written by the Guild Writers for the show) called "Don't Make Me Over." Her contribution was considered so important to Roseanne that the show's producers juggled storylines and taping schedules to allow her to study at <a href="/facts/Yale_University/KUdS6jt1">Yale University</a> while remaining in the cast, shooting remote segments of Darlene at a soundstage in New York.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a>

The show was canceled after one season, when the WB and <a href="/facts/UPN/IWX4rdoe">UPN</a> networks merged as <a href="/facts/The_CW/zPFQN74d">The CW</a> and dropped a number of series. She also had a recurring role on the short-lived <a href="/facts/CBS/BhMsVoej">CBS</a> sitcom <a href="/facts/The_Class_(TV_series)/QqbM89R1">The Class</a> as Fern Velch.
