Well, it's been renewed. Including some salary bumps for the main cast. Somewhat surprising, I expected a one-and-done season. https://tvline.com/2019/03/22/the-conners-renewed-season-2-abc-cast-returning/ (That said, I haven't watched any of this revival, either with or without Roseanne)

I'm doubtful this can last more than a season. Those that had no interest in the show before still won't, and those now bitter about Roseanne being fired won't want to watch either. But I'm glad that the cast and crew get to stay employed for the time being.

Yes, she had a lower profile - but they had to figure if this show was successful that that would change and she'd be a very visible polarizing figure. Now they have a huge mess.

I feel really bad for the show's production staff that now has to scramble to find jobs. As for ABC, though - WTF, how could they *not* know that this was going to happen? Roseanne's been doing this kind of stuff for a long time. Maybe you should have thought this through a little more before...

Yeah, so likable and courageous. :rolleyes:

I'm sure they understand that the landscape has changed, but an appeal to nostalgia for a proven prior success is probably a pretty easy sell when the original cast is all in.
