The Conners	comment	The Conners is a 2018 Dom Com on ABC, and an Aftershow spinoff of the long-running Roseanne. The series focuses on the Conner family's efforts to get by in the wake of their matriarch Roseanne's death. Most of the remaining cast of the previous series, including John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, and Sara Gilbert, return for this continuation, with the notable absence of Roseanne Barr herself.The series was ordered by ABC after the previous series was abruptly cancelled following racist remarks made by Barr. As a second/eleventh season of Roseanne had already been planned and paid for by the network (and valuable ad time - based on the first/tenth season's gangbuster ratings - had already been sold), it was decided to Retool said season into The Conners, with Barr being paid a one-time fee in exchange for relinquishing any and all ownership of the show and its characters; as a result, the show is being produced without any involvement whatsoever from Barr — creatively, financially, and otherwise.The spinoff was renewed for a second season on March 22, 2019. The initial order was for 13 episodes, but all parties agreed to an extension to 19 episodes, nearly a full season's worth; ultimately, 20 episodes would air. (The original Roseanne averaged 25 episodes per season.) The show was renewed for a sixth season on May 16, 2023, and is set to premiere on February 7, 2024.This show's character sheet is shared with its predecessor over here.

The Conners / int_1439161f	type	Heroic BSoD
The Conners / int_1439161f	comment	Heroic BSoD: Dan and Jackie have this reaction to Roseanne's death, even three weeks after her funeral. Dan initially can't bring himself to sleep in their bed (he ends up doing so in the tag), while Jackie goes crazy rearranging the kitchen all day because she can't bear to leave the house, feeling that doing so would mean leaving her sister. Jackie would show no further signs of grief until the end of the season where she has a drunken nervous breakdown at a restaurant that used to be The Lanford Lunch Box. Becky, Darlene, and DJ are shown to have a much better grip on dealing with their momâ€™s demise. In season 4, however, Darlene has a mildly intense reaction to finding a note that Roseanne had wrote in a Bible begging God to heal the pain from her bad knees. The same pain that forced her to turn to opioids, causing her own demise.

The Conners / int_1a368bd5	comment	Reluctant Retiree: In some Season 3 episodes, Dan's ability to do dry wall and other construction work is called into question, due to his age. It reaches a head in "Panic Attacks, Hardware Store and Big Mouth Billy Bass" when his impaired hearing prevents him from hearing an approaching forklift; he gets fired from that job for being a liability and gets turned away by another contractor who heard about what happened. Talking to Jackie, he acknowledges how the work is just getting harder to do and that it's taking him longer to recover from it.

The Conners / int_2484396e	comment	Jackie's brief boyfriend, Peter, who proves that Jackie's luck with men doesn't seem to have changed much in the past twenty-something years. He's a condescending, unbearably dull, stuck-up, jobless, broke, Know-Nothing Know-It-All mooch who makes Jackie not only pay for his schooling, but makes her participate in a school project of his where they both have to live like ancient Nordic people (which means Jackie does virtually everything, while Peter sits on his ass) and has her add him to her bank account despite having no money of his own, talks down to Dan when he gets called out on his behavior, and seems to be liked by a total of zero people in- and out-of-universe. After she catches him having an affair with another woman — and after he implies, to Jackie's face, that she's the reason why — she promptly gives him the boot.

The Conners / int_2f5790f5	comment	I Want You to Meet an Old Friend of Mine: As noted above, Dan Aykroyd (John Goodman's costar in Blues Brothers 2000) appears in an episode as one of Dan's poker buddies. Noel Fisher was cast to play Dan's long-lost half-brother Ed Conner, Jr., and naturally (given the show's fondness for Lampshade Hanging) gets to share a scene in his debut appearance with his Shameless (US) costar, Emma Kenney, who plays Harris. Harris flirts aggressively with him only to be shut down when Dan tells her they're family. (He's her half-great-uncle.) In Season 4's Weddings for Everyone, Father Morton is played by Ian Gomez, Laurie Metcalf's co-star from The Norm Show. Speaking of Shameless (US), The Stinger of "Two More Years and a Stolen Rose" sees Emma Kenney opening the front door and seeing Dan's high school rival Smitty standing there; she asks if they've met before. Smitty is played by William H. Macy, who played Kenney's father on the other series.

It's suggested that Dan is taking out his anger on Marcy because he blames himself for not being able to find a job that provided sufficient health coverage for his family.

The Conners / int_6ec4232f	comment	Casting Gag: In October 2019, ABC had a network-wide "Cast from the Past" week where sitcoms featuring a particular cast member had an episode featuring actors from a prior work of that cast member. This series' contribution, "The Preemie Monologues", featured Dan Aykroyd as Buddy, a poker player friend of Dan's. Aykroyd and John Goodman had starred in Blues Brothers 2000 as Elwood Blues and "Mighty Mack" McTeer, respectively. Katey Sagal as Louise, Dan's new love interest after Roseanne's death. Sagal is best known for playing Peg Bundy on Married... with Children, which was largely considered to be Roseanne's direct competitor during the latter series' original run. In fact, Roseanne Barr was the original choice for the role of Peggy, opposite Sam Kinison as Al. (Both turned it down: she wanted a project where she had more creative control, he wanted to become a movie star.)

Ironically, it's shown Bev also is guilty of this when the whole reason she wanted to expose Darlene's favoritism in the first place is because she's upset Darlene gave her share of the restaurant back to Jackie, reinforcing Bev's old favoritism for Roseanne over Jackie from the original series.

The shocking death was revealed soon after Darlene reconnected with her teenage rival, who encouraged her to live life to its fullest â€” something Molly had done ever since she found out she was dying.

The Conners / int_99ddfcec	comment	Unwitting Instigator of Doom: In the premiere, it's revealed that a woman named Marcy Bellinger gave Roseanne a bottle of powerful painkillers to help her in recovery. Marcy explains that she's part of a group of suburban women who lack health insurance and so pass the little medicine they can afford around to each other. What Marcy didn't realize is that Roseanne became addicted to the meds and started actively seeking out other people to get them, which ultimately resulted in her death. Dan accuses Marcy of being no better than a drug dealer, but she firmly explains that she genuinely didn't know about Roseanne's addiction and was just trying to help.

The Conners / int_9dab0a6e	comment	Continuity Nod: DJ's wife Geena, carrying over from the tenth season of Roseanne, isn't a new character; she was mentioned in a single episode of the original series almost 25 years prior, where she was the little girl DJ didn't want to kiss for a school play. Roseanne's addictive personality was explored in several episodes in the original run, as well, including the episode where she started smoking and her addiction to bingo. David breaks up with Darlene again by telling her he needs to be in a relationship where both parties are partners, and that she's been more or less dominating their relationship since day one. To illustrate this, a clip of the two of them from the original Roseanne is shown, in which she does just that.

The Conners / int_a084f0e0	comment	Never Speak Ill of the Dead: Meta example. Unlike Two and a Half Men, which made a big joke out of killing off their main character (rather viciously, at that) after clashing with the actor under similar but apolitical circumstances, the series portrays utmost reverence for Roseanne the character. Her death has affected the characters in several ways (particularly Dan and Jackie, of course) and is occasionally mentioned verbally as being missed and loved. In-universe, this trope is subverted in terms of the elder Mark Healy, Davidâ€™s brother. Dan admits in season 3 that he thinks Mark was a â€œselfish little punkâ€� who ruined Beckyâ€™s life.

The Conners / int_a32334b4	comment	Canon Discontinuity: In season 3 during Beckyâ€™s rehab episode, Dan says the money they sent Becky was for college and Mark used it and dropped out of trade school while in Minnesota. This a retcon of Roseanneâ€™s original history, in Roseanne during season 6 Becky and Mark lived in the Conner home when Becky was given the money. It was intended to be for Becky's schooling, but she pushed Mark to take it because she wanted him to be more successful. He did still drop out of school fairly quickly, but he'd never wanted to be there to begin with. Jerry Garcia Conner and Andy Harris no longer exist in the Conners version of the timeline. Lanford has now become an outer suburb of Chicago rather than a rural community in the middle of nowhere. Mind you, the Chicagoland metro area stretches out quite a ways and does get rural at its outer edges, but this establishes that Chicago is now nearby rather than the multiple hours away that it used to be.

In Season 2, after having no luck trying for a baby with Ben and seeing him being friendly with Becky and help her with her baby, Darlene lashes out at them due to jealousy. After calming down, she reveals to Ben that the real reason she was angry was because she went to the doctor and was revealed to have scarring, meaning it would be little chance for her to have a baby with Ben. Ben assures her that if Becky could get pregnant after being told her chances were impossible, Darlene could too. By season 3, Darlene finds out she's pregnant — only to be told by a doctor that it was a false positive and that she is near pre-menopause at 43.
