TV: Without Roseanne, “The Conners” Teeters–ABC Only Orders 1 More Episode

“The Conners” is already in trouble.

The trades report without editorial comment that ABC has ordered only more episode to be added to the ten it already contracted for this season.

A full half season order is 13, which means ABC didn’t even fill that out. And they most certainly didn’t ask for a number like 22 which would take “The Conners” to the end of the current TV season next spring.

The 1 episode order makes me think it’s just a finale to the ten as a good will gesture. And then “The Conners” would go back to the mists of TV’s own walking dead.

So far, “The Conners” ratings have been less than spectacular. The first episode brought in 11 million viewers, the second week dropped to 7 million. If the drop continues, it may be too expensive to keep around, given John Goodman’s and Laurie Metcalf’s salaries.

ABC Entertainment President Channing Dungey. She was responsible for cancelling Tim Allen's hit "Last Man Standing" and then firing Roseanne Barr.

Most of us would be cleaning out our desks. Most of us.

““The Conners” is un-funny formulaic bullshit designed, written, and acted by liberals to appeal to what they think conservatives like.”

Wow. Brilliant analysis. No wonder I found the show boring and a waste of time.

Hate ugly sara gilbert. She owes everything to Roseanne. I watched for a few minutes. Awful. John has not aged well at all. Not pleasant to look at.

ABC needs to end it now before they lose more money.

Tv execs are so dumb
You dont fix what works i.e. Roseanne and Kevin can wait. They think we viewers are dumb.
