Now that she's queen of the Nielsens, what might be Roseanne Arnold's next career goal? How about legend? Next week ABC's Everywoman appears in TV Guide with lesser half Tom, done up as small-screen icons Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. The couch potato's bible calls Roseanne Arnold the most powerful boob-tube diva since the divine Ms. Ball (memo to Mary Tyler Moore: Fire your publicist). Furthering the parallel, the Arnolds are now making plans for their first big-screen bow as husband and wife--a remake of Vincente Minnelli's 1954 comedy The Long Long Trailer, which starred...Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz.
