ABC Announce One More (Short) Season for The Conners

The Conners

The popular sitcom The Conners has surprised many by securing a seventh season, serving as its final chapter. This announcement comes as a twist, as many expected the show to conclude with season six. The resilient series, a spinoff of the Roseanne revival, has defied expectations since its debut in 2018, navigating a path to success despite its controversial origins.

Executive producer Bruce Helford and star Sara Gilbert had expressed their desire for a definitive ending, and with the upcoming shorter final season of around six episodes, they will have the opportunity to craft a proper send-off for the beloved show.
