BPR: ABC’s planned spin-off of “Roseanne” will hit the air this fall, the network said on Tuesday.
Airing October 16, “The Conners” will feature series regulars John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf and Sara Gilbert, among others, and will be based on the lives of the fictional Conner family, sans the matriarch, played by Roseanne Barr, The Hill reported.
( Virulent anti-Trump zealot Alec Baldwin will debut his new show on ABC the same week.)
ABC jettisoned Barr after an ill-advised tweet that compared Obama royalty member Valerie Jarrett to a character in the “Planet of the Apes.”
The cast released a statement last month addressing the opportunity to continue the show.
“We have received a tremendous amount of support from fans of our show, and it’s clear that these characters not only have a place in our hearts, but in the hearts and homes of our audience. We all came back last season because we wanted to tell stories about the challenges facing a working- class family today. We are so happy to have the opportunity to return with the cast and crew to continue to share those stories through love and laughter,” the statement said.
Meanwhile, Roseanne Barr will be sitting down with Fox News’ Sean Hannity in an exclusive interview Thursday, July 26, the network announced. MORE
But what would we be missing on the hallmark channel?
How about an interview with ValJar? Anybody? That one seems to be laying low, and the MSM is obliging her. She’s as big a part of this deep state shit show as anybody.
