Are you a fan of The Conners? Recently, star Laurie Metcalf spoke with Entertainment Tonight about the future of the ABC TV show.
A spin-off of Roseanne, the comedy follows the working-class family of Roseanne and Dan Conner (John Goodman) including their three children Becky (Lecy Goranson), Darlene (Sara Gilbert), and D.J. (Michael Fishman), as well as Roseanne’s sister, Jackie Harris (Laurie Metcalf).
In the interview, Metcalf seemed confident that there will be a second season of The Conners:
I believe it’s going to happen. I think we’ll do between 10 and 13 [episodes], something like that.”
And what’s in store for the ABC sitcom? Metcalf says:
I think the tone will be the same, but I love not knowing what’s coming up at all. I don’t get the scripts until the Friday after we do a taping, and then I get to read what we’ll be doing starting next Monday.”
What do you think? Do you watch The Conners? Do you want a second season?
Please do not cancel The Connors!! There are many talented actors on The Connors…Sara Gilbert is a great replacement & plays well off the other characters. Roseanne’s absence is NOT missed & her demise does not diminish The Connors success as a great comedic show!
I love the show. Please renew it
I was a little skeptical at first because of Roseanne leaving but I love the Conners, it has the same flair and story lines I love. I wad a fan and am still a fan! Please do another 10 seasons!
The Roseanne reboot was unexpectedly very good. I find the Connors also very good – the other characters are no longer there just to set up Roseanne’s punchlines. I’m enjoying seeing them fleshed out and I look forward to more of Jackie the life coach – loved the episode where she actually gave Becky some great advice. I hope the show continues.
Cancel the show. It sucks now.
Cancel the show. I will never watch any of those traitors again. They Threw Rosie under the bus. Shame on all of them.
Shame on ABC.
Cancel.
I wish Roseanne was still on the series, but i still like the show.
Please cancel, and add new comedy show !!!
Of course she would say that. I would to if I needed a job. DON’T RENEW IT.
The show doesn’t seem to have the same soul as before, it’s like it has no direction not even for a sitcom, it’s all over the map….hate to say it but I don’t think it should be renewed
The show has lived it’s life. Time to move on. It’s like a severance package for the cast and crew giving them the 1 season for short notice cancelation. They probably had their schedules rearranged for Season 2 of the Rosanne revival. ABC had obligations to meet it was hit or miss and it missed.
I have twice attempted to leave my lengthy remarks, and was dumped off. I will continue to watch The Connors, because of its value in the drama of my own life.
Yes, I want it to continue. As much as I liked Rosanne, the rest of the cast has always been great!!!!
I thought the series fell flat without Roseanne. We will not continue watching.
