What’s This TV Show About?
A family comedy on the ABC television network, Roseanne originally ran for nine seasons, between 1988 and 1997. Original stars Roseanne Barr, John Goodman, Sara Gilbert, Laurie Metcalf, Michael Fishman, Alicia Goranson, and Sarah Chalke have returned, alongside newcomers Emma Kenney, Ames McNamara, and Jayden Rey. Returning guest stars include Johnny Galecki, Sarah Bernhard, Estelle Parsons, James Pickens Jr., Natalie West, and Adilah Barnes. The sitcom centers on working-class couple Roseanne and Dan Conner (Barr and Goodman), their family, and friends. Chalke, who replaced the departing Goranson as Becky in the original series, is returning in a new role. The Roseanne revival features new stories which touch on contemporary issues facing American families.

Telly’s Take
The revival premiered with fantastic numbers so I’m sure that ABC will renew Roseanne for season 11. I’m sure the ratings will drop as future episodes air but I don’t expect that to change anything. I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking developments, while I seek my supper somewhere else. Subscribe for free alerts on Roseanne cancellation or renewal news.
