After decades of heartfelt laughs and relatable struggles, the journey of the Conner family is coming to an end. ABC has officially announced that The Conners will return in March 2025 for a six-episode farewell event, marking the conclusion of a sitcom legacy that has spanned 17 seasons across Roseanne and its spinoff.
The Final Chapter
Season 7 of The Conners is set to close out the series with a total of 112 episodes, bringing the combined franchise count to a staggering 343 episodes. This monumental farewell will be the ultimate celebration of a family that has captured hearts with their humor, resilience, and unwavering authenticity.
Executive producer Bruce Helford highlighted the responsibility of wrapping up such an iconic story:
“We carry the weight of the Roseanne legacy. It’s a big, big deal. I can promise you this: They will never win the lottery, and they will never be rich.”
Fellow EP Dave Caplan echoed the sentiment, emphasizing their dedication to doing justice to the characters and the series’ legacy:
“The whole time that we’ve been doing The Conners, we’ve never stopped feeling the pressure of the legacy… We owe it to these characters, and that will guide us through the final six episodes.”
What to Expect in Season 7
While specific plot details remain under wraps, Helford has teased that the final season will be full of surprises.
“There is much to happen that is not expected. Bev is out there hopping trains and stealing pies off windowsills. A lot is in motion, and even more will come into play.”
The possibility of returning fan-favorites, like Johnny Galecki’s David or Michael Fishman’s DJ, is also on the table. According to Helford, the door is always open:
“Anything is possible.”
A Legacy Worth Celebrating
Spanning nearly two decades, the Roseanne and The Conners franchise has told the story of a working-class family navigating life with humor and heart. From tackling real-world issues to showcasing the unbreakable bonds of family, the show has remained a cultural touchstone.
As the curtain falls, fans are left to wonder what’s in store for Dan, Darlene, Jackie, and the rest of the Conner clan. Will we see resolutions, surprises, or emotional goodbyes? One thing is certain: this final season promises to leave a lasting impression.
