What’s This TV Show About?
An ABC sitcom and Roseanne spinoff, The Conners stars John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Lecy Goranson, Michael Fishman, Emma Kenney, Ames McNamara, Jayden Rey, and Maya Lynne Robinson. Guest stars in season one include Estelle Parsons, James Pickens Jr., Natalie West, Johnny Galecki, and Juliette Lewis. The sitcom follows the working-class family of Roseanne and Dan Conner (Goodman) including their three children Becky (Goranson), Darlene (Gilbert), and D.J. (Fishman), as well as Roseanne’s sister, Jackie Harris (Metcalf). No matter what challenges the family meets in Lanford, Illinois (even without matriarch Roseanne), the Conners endure — thanks to their persistence, humor, and most of all, love.

What do you think? Do you hope The Conners TV show will be renewed for a second season? How would you feel if ABC cancelled this TV series, instead?
Love the show. Don’t necessarily like Matthew Broderick in this show.
I so love this show. It is so funny. They can not cancel this show.
Big mistake dropping Roseanne. The cast needs acting lessons! Show is not funny at all. Forced jokes. Rosenne was always kind of corney but she made it work. It doesn’t work without her.
cancel this lousy series and watch the original roseanne 10 seasons for a good time
Not funny anymore and still too political.
Cancel. Roseanne is the star. Maybe she can recast her family and make a new show on another network. Now I would watch that.
I agree completely!! Roseanne find a way to make it happen!! ABC bad move firing her but I guess you know that now, OUCH!!
Cancel it.
Cancel it
I hope it gets cancelled. The show sucks. Roseanne was the star on that show. Without her the show is worthless.
I hope they get canceled. The show isn’t any good. The actors can’t hold the show together, without Roseanne you got nothing but political correctness shoved down your throat. No thanks, I’d rather watch reruns
I do hope ABC renews that new spin-off show.
You’re going to be Sooooo disappointed. They only ordered one more episode. Probably to burn the house down.
Nope, it’s to bring back Roseanne the same way they brought Dan.
