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 didnt even fill that out. And they most certainly didnt 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 its just a finale to the ten as a good will gesture. And then The Conners would go back to the mists of TVs 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 Goodmans and Laurie Metcalfs salaries.

There is a new comedy that comes on right after the conners called the kids are alright. It takes place in 70s irish family with 8 sons living in LA. It was cute. The family is The Clerys
The Conners = New Coke.
How DO these TV Pukes in Upper Management manage to keep their jobs?
Think about it. How many other new shows have their been since this waist of a show started again?
Answer: 0.
This show is dead. My guess is the only fired the show back up for contract obligations, with the belief that the sales department could *shame* advertisers to pony up for this cinematic regurgitation.
Obviously, its not working. Of course, anyone on Madison avenue could have told them that.
Yet, Valerie Jarret still looks for all the world like Planet of the Apes!, go figure...
Thank You! I was wondering what ‘Protected Class Liberal DipSh#t’ was behind all of these recent STELLAR programming decisions, LOL!
My first guess was a gay or trans wo/man, but this makes total sense, too...
Someone said the perfect comeback would be for Roseanne to be cast as Tim's next door neighbor. He'd invite her over for coffee and she would describe her strange dream...the entire "Roseanne" series, past and present episodes.
I like it.
Well done.
A million plus a week.
actually we have the Rosanne show to thank because it saved Tim Allen’s show last man standing.
A train wreck I saw coming from miles away. But ABC never applied the brakes.
Boy they really had to airbrush the 3 at the bottom of the photo. In real life they have more wrinkles then time itself.
And Murphy Brown should join them...What an idiotic show Murphy Brown is...
Maybe when the reboot the reboot to the reboot via a dream sequence ala Bobby Ewing, they could just write the Darlene character off as having a opioid overdose like the got rid of Rosanne. Rosanne just dreamed it was her that passed.
If only: Coming to FOX, Last Woman Standing, staring Roseanne and James Woods....
Could see this coming. The 11 million viewers for the first show was out of curiosity. Then a drop of 40% because it sucks.
