Members DRW50 Posted November 21, 2018 Members Share Posted November 21, 2018 They're just supporting characters. I think DJ helps make his sisters feel more human and less like joke machines. I also think that Geena would be fine if they could write a role for her beyond being Christian. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted November 21, 2018 Members Share Posted November 21, 2018 That's what happens when you have a thirty-minute sitcom with a lot of characters to service every week. Inevitably, some characters, such as D.J. and Geena, will fall through the metaphorical cracks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted November 21, 2018 Author Members Share Posted November 21, 2018 Nope I like DJ and his wife, all show's need supporting character's, they can't all be leads. OMG Darlene's new boss is HOT 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted November 22, 2018 Members Share Posted November 22, 2018 The show's ratings have remained solid this week. Assuming the cast wants to continue I suspect renewal is a lock, knock on wood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 27, 2018 Members Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) TV Line gives Lecy props. Fred Savage will be directing tomorrow's episode (and possibly appearing?). Crystal is also back. Edited November 27, 2018 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cct Posted November 27, 2018 Members Share Posted November 27, 2018 Why do they wanna "go hard" on guest stars? I know the original run had guest stars but this isn't Will and Grace. (and for that matter, they can quit over there too; that's why their original run JTSed.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 27, 2018 Members Share Posted November 27, 2018 That was Roseanne's quote. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted November 28, 2018 Members Share Posted November 28, 2018 The Conners is outperforming the rest of ABC’s Tuesday lineup by a lot. It was ABC’s only non-fractional show last night with a 1.4. It was fourth amongst all network programming behind This Is Us (2.0), a CBS rebroadcast of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1.7), and The Voice (1.5). http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/the-sked-tuesday-network-scorecard-11-27-2018.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 28, 2018 Members Share Posted November 28, 2018 It was up in total viewers as well last night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 29, 2018 Members Share Posted November 29, 2018 It's not on schedule for the winter, but was never going to be due to the nature of its small run and Metcalf/Goodman's other commitments. Articles say a decision will be made later in the spring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 29, 2018 Members Share Posted November 29, 2018 I'm still seeing people spreading rumors the show has already been canceled and spamming comment sections anywhere and everywhere. It's so dispiriting. The show certainly has flaws but overall I have enjoyed this season and I hope they get another. The Becky story has had some great moments for Lecy Goranson (and I'm glad the somewhat offputting adoption angle with the guest star lesbians is already over). I loved getting to see Crystal again too. I never thought I'd be saying that in 2018. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 29, 2018 Members Share Posted November 29, 2018 The right wing social media machine loves to napalm Twitter. But no, it was never going to be on in winter and it is quite likely to be renewed by most metrics unless the cast is done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted November 29, 2018 Members Share Posted November 29, 2018 Me too. I admit, it's all about the nostalgia of seeing these actors and characters again for me. I would no sooner be a fresh viewer to Roseanne than I would to Y&R, but I don't think that means these shows are bad. They have something to offer or they wouldn't be around. We all know these networks have no mercy if the ratings aren't there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted November 29, 2018 Members Share Posted November 29, 2018 I stand by my statement that Geena and the kid are superfluous. Up against Lecy, Laurie and Sara is a tough gig and the writers are obviously not interested in developing that character. the actress is giving me no spark. Geena no investment in anything that is going on and no point of view. On paper the character might have sounded interesting but she hasn't brought it to life. The actress/character belongs in another sitcom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
