The Conners Season 5 Story Details Revealed By Executive Producers
New details have dropped about the upcoming plotline on The Conners season 5. The Conners is the latest addition to the Roseanne franchise, which originated with the popular ABC series starring Roseanne Barr and ran for 9 seasons from 1988 through 1997. The show centered on a blue-collar family and their triumphs and struggles, with Barr's character Roseanne Conner in the middle of it all. The show was rebooted for season 10 in 2018, but Barr was subsequently fired for controversial comments on Twitter, forcing the network to retool the series without her. Newly rebranded with Roseanne's character sidelined after an offscreen death, the show was reborn as The Conners and premiered the following October, running for an additional four seasons with a fifth on the way.
