You know what they say—some things are worth the wait! Fans of the iconic show "Roseanne" are absolutely buzzing with excitement for the reboot. And let me tell you, the storylines coming our way are nothing short of fantastic. ABC gave us a little sneak peek on Monday, Dec. 25, with some new preview clips that had everyone talking. One teaser even joked about Dan Conner's supposed death from the original series finale. Yes, you heard that right!
Revisiting the Conner Family Magic
In one of the clips, we see Dan Conner, the beloved character played by John Goodman, chilling with his daughter Becky Conner, portrayed by Lecy Goranson. They're watching a basketball game when Roseanne Conner, played by Roseanne Barr herself, walks into the room. She asks John how the game's going, and he fires back, "I still think the Bulls of 1996-1997 would have beaten these guys anytime." Classic Dan! But Roseanne isn't having it. She quips, "You can’t live in the past, Dan! When things are gone, they’re gone forever." And just like that, she ends the scene with her iconic laugh. It's like stepping back into the Conner family living room all over again.
Addressing the Big Questions: What Happened to Dan?
Remember at the end of Season 8 back in 1997, when Roseanne revealed her husband had died of a heart attack? Well, she later shared that the entire last season was just a dream—including the Conner family winning the lottery. Crazy, right? In a recent interview, John Goodman mentioned there might be a funny reference to all this in the reboot. And based on the teasers, it looks like he wasn't kidding around. It's going to be hilarious to see how they tackle this plot twist.

More Laughs from the Conner Crew
Another teaser clip showed Roseanne watching the basketball game with Dan and their other daughter, Darlene Conner, played by Sara Gilbert. In this scene, Roseanne asks some seriously silly questions about the game. It’s just as funny as you'd expect from her. There's also a moment where John is lying down, watching the game but talking about football and concussions as if that's what he's watching. Of course, Roseanne is there to snap him back to reality, reminding him that he's not watching football. These little moments are what make the Conner family so relatable and lovable.
Reuniting the Original Cast
On Dec. 27, ABC released a behind-the-scenes clip of the entire cast doing a table read. I don't know about you, but seeing the original cast back together on set is pure gold. The chemistry is still there, and it's clear they're all having a blast working together again. The show's reboot premieres on March 27, and let me tell you, we're counting down the days until we can dive back into the world of the Conner family.
