characters from The Conners season 6
Although a few cast members are missing, most of The Conners' original cast is returning for season 7. The Roseanne spinoff will have a very short farewell season, consisting only of six episodes, which will hopefully wrap up major storylines and offer a satisfying ending to the sequel series to the 1990s hit.
While a casting update for The Conners revealed that Johnny Galecki's David Healy and two other pivotal characters from the franchise's earlier days would not appear, the main Conner family will remain intact. There has been widespread speculation about the final season, which starts on March 26, 2025, including whether The Conners will bring back characters such as Alexandra Billings' Robin. Unfortunately, there has been no news about Robin or Crystal yet. However, The Conners season 7 will introduce some new characters who will interact with the Conner family while helping bring the popular family comedy — and thus the Roseanne franchise — to a satisfying conclusion. John Goodman as Dan Conner Date of Birth: June 20, 1952 Close Actor: John Goodman was born in Afton, Missouri, and first broke big on the original Roseanne, where he played blue-collar worker and devoted father and husband Dan Conner, the role he reprised in The Conners in 2017. In the years between Roseanne and The Conners, Goodman starred in several movies, including 1991's King Ralph and 1997's The Borrowers. He has lent his voice talents to all the movies in the Monster Inc. franchise and will be the voice of Papa Smurf in a new Smurfs movie coming out in 2025.Character: Dan Conner was originally the father of three children in Roseanne, though it was eventually revealed that he had another son, Jerry. The Conners teased a rift between Dan and Jerry but never explained it. Dan is the protagonist of The Conners who is doing his best to keep the family together after Roseanne's death and be a good father to his now-adult children and grandfather to their children. Dan is a good-hearted man who worked as a building contractor. He supposedly died during the original series finale of Roseanne, but Roseanne season 10 retconned this. Laurie Metcalf As Jackie Harris Date of Birth: June 16, 1955 Close Actor: Laurie Metcalf was born in Carbondale, Illinois. Although she is best known to modern audiences as Sheldon Cooper's mother in The Big Bang Theory, she got her first big break playing Jackie during Roseanne's original run. Metcalf also starred in the short-lived comedy The McCarthys. She has made guest appearances on various sitcoms and dramas, most recently playing the killer of the week on Elsbeth. She has also starred in several movies, including playing Debbie Salt in Scream 2 and Marion McPherson in 2017's Lady Bird.Character: Jackie is Roseanne's younger sister whose life was shaped by the trauma of being abused by their father and who had many failed relationships with men as an adult and had a falling out with Roseanne over the results of the 2016 Presidential Election. Jackie struggled with figuring out her place in the family after Roseanne's death, though Dan did his best to make her feel welcome, and later on she had to deal with her relationship with her mom, Bev, after Bev developed dementia and had to move in with Jackie. Sara Gilbert As Darlene Conner Date of Birth: January 29, 1975 Close Actor: Sara Gilbert, the younger sister of Little House on the Prairie star Melissa Gilbert, was born in Santa Monica and got her first big break playing Darlene in Roseanne during its original run. Soon after Roseanne ended, she landed a role on the short-lived comedy Welcome to New York and later played Jane Figler on 15 episodes of ER. She recently starred in five episodes of the Netflix comedy Atypical before reprising her role as Darlene in The Conners. Gilbert is currently one of the producers of The Conners.Character: Darlene was originally a complex, moody teenager who was closer to her dad than her mom, was interested in creative writing, and was a chronic underachiever because of depression. As an adult, Darlene has had several failed relationships, most notably her marriage to her childhood boyfriend, David , which was tumultuous when they were teenagers and even more so as adults. It is unclear whether her relationship with her second husband, Ben, will fare, especially now that The Conners has cast Seth Green as a potential new love interest for Darlene. Lecy Goranson As Becky Conner Date of Birth: June 22, 1974 Close Actor: Alicia"Lecy" Goranson was born in Evanston, Illinois. Like most of the Roseanne cast, she got her big break when she was cast in that show as Roseanne and Dan's eldest daughter, Becky. Outside of Roseanne, she is known for the 1999 movie Boys Don't Cry and has guest starred in various TV shows, including Law & Order: SVU, Fringe, and Damages.Character: As the eldest child, Becky often was responsible for helping out around the house and taking care of her younger siblings. As an adult, she became pregnant after a one-night stand with an undocumented worker who was subsequently deported. In The Conners season 6, Becky begins a new relationship with Tyler , and the couple will make plans to live together in The Conners season 7.
