According to Deadline, John Goodman (10 Cloverfield Lane), star of The Conners, says goodbye to the character of Dan Conner after 35 years. The two-part series finale aired on ABC on Wednesday. Goodman stated that the seven-season revival has gone by “so fast”.
“It’s really hard. It’s something I’m going to miss for a while. I’m old and resistant to change,” he told People, adding: “It was so exciting when we got this together and it seems like it was two weeks ago. Showing up every day and just being here with everybody. It’s a great place to work.”
Goodman said, “It’s just being here every day and like my costar Jay R. Ferguson (The Outsiders) said, we just come in and laugh a lot. And it’s hard.”
As per Deadline, The Conners is a spinoff of the Roseanne series, which starred Roseanne Barr (Little Rosey) and aired from 1988 to 1997. The cast reunited on the revival series The Conner’s in 2018 and although the series was renewed, Barr was terminated from the show for racially insensitive tweets. ABC renewed the series for a seventh and final season last May. Goodman stated that he’ll “be grateful for a long time” that the network gave them the “courtesy” of allowing them to finish the show.
Roseanne followed the life of the Conners, a working-class family in Illinois. The series revolved around Roseanne Conner, her husband Dan, and their three children: Becky, Darlene, and D.J.
The Conners follows a working-class family struggling to get by on a limited household income. After some events, the family is forced to face daily life struggles in their home as they work together to overcome them.
The cast of the series includes Goodman as Dan Conner, Laurie Metcalf (Uncle Buck) as Jackie Harris, Sara Gilbert (Riding in Cars with Boys) as Darlene Conner, Alicia Goranson (Boys Don’t Cry) as Becky Connor-Healy, Emma Keeny (Shameless) as Harris Conner-Healy, Ames McNamara (The Dead Don’t Die) as Mark Conner-Healy, Jayden Rey (Bobcat Moretti) as Mary Conner and many others.
The Conners is available to stream on Hulu, Netflix, Tubi and Pluto TV.
