Despite the multiple controversies, a second season of the Roseanne spinoff is officially happening. News of the renewal were confirmed by the network Friday

“We are proud to be continuing the story of the iconic Conners family,” Karey Burke, president ABC Entertainment, said in a statement. “This team is fearless in their willingness to tackle contemporary issues with humor and heart, and I have no doubt they will continue to outdo themselves.”

The Conners debuted in October. It follows a working-class Americas family as it deals with everyday hardships like parenthood, divorce, dating, aging and financial pressures after losing the family’s matriarch to opioid abuse. 

The Conners starred Roseanne alums including John Goodman (Dan Conner), Laurie Metcalf (Jackie Harris), Sara Gilbert (Darlene Conner) and Lecy Goranson (Becky Conner-Healy). The first season also featured an impressive lineup of guest appearances including Matthew Broderick, Juliette Lewis, Katey Sagal, Mary Steenburgen, Justin Long and Jay R. Ferguson.

According to Laurie Metcalf, season 2 of the ABC drama is “going to happen.”

The Conners star told Entertainment Tonight that an additional season for the Roseanne spinoff could very possibly happen. 

“I believe it’s going to happen,” she told ET‘s Lauren Zima before Sunday’s Critics’ Choice Awards. “I think we’ll do between 10 and 13 [episodes], something like that… I think the tone will be the same, but I love not knowing what’s coming up at all.” 

Deadline also confirms that a sophomore run could happen, reporting that negotiations are currently underway with the core cast Season 2, which would boast a higher episode count than the spinoff’s rookie 11-episode run. 

The Roseanne revival was canceled in March after Roseanne Barr posted racist tweets.

Aunt Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) has a new love interest played by the 56-year-old actor. Broderick is joining the ABC series for a guest arc. He’ll make his first appearance on the show’s Halloween episode.

Here’s the official logline for the episode titled, There Won’t Be Blood: “It’s Halloween, the favorite time of year for the Conners, but an email from the school banning certain costumes, including Mark’s, sets off an argument between Dan and Darlene. Jackie introduces someone new to the family at the Halloween party and insists that Dan vet him, only to immediately wish that she hadn’t, on an all-new episode of The Conners.”

It’s unclear how long Broderick stint on The Conners will last, we’ll just say that the last time Jackie had a significant other, he made an appearance throughout three seasons!

The news of the casting comes after Netflix’s announcement that Broderick is joining the cast of the Daybreak. According to Entertainment Tonight, he’ll be playing the “cheerful, upbeat” Principal Burr. His character is described as “genuinely trying to be part of the solution: a good guy, an advocate, and ally for all.”

The Conners, which premiered on Tuesday, revealed that Roseanne Barr’s character had been killed due to an accidental overdose of opioids.

Galecki is no stranger to this TV universe, since he already played the role of David Healy in the original series, and made a brief appearance in its revival. Same can’t be said about Juliette Lewis, who has no previous connections to this world.

The Natural Born Killers star announced the good news on her Instagram by posting a photo with Galecki and Sara Gilbert. Lewis also surprised her fans with a pic of herself holding a script for the upcoming season of The Conners.

This won’t the first time for Galecki and Lewis appeared alongside each other. They previously starred in the classic comedy National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation from 1989. The two played supporting roles alongside Chevy Chase, as his kids Audrey and Russell Griswold.

The short promo video features a slow zoom of the familiar couch in the family’s cozy living room. As Carly Simon’s Anticipation play in the background, words “What’s next?” suddenly pop up on the screen.

If you’re hoping for one of the Conners to enter the room and answer the question, you’re up for the disappointment. None of the familiar faces shows up in this short teaser, which offered more questions than answers.

The only thing we know for sure is that Roseanne Barr definitely won’t be coming back. ABC decided to cut ties with the star after she shocked the world with a series of offensive tweets.

The teaser doesn’t reveal much about the future of The Conners, but ABC gave us another sneak peek into the new series. The first photo was posted on the show’s official Instagram and it features the cast sitting at the kitchen table together. Sara Gilbert, Michael Fishman, John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf and Lecy Goranson are some of the cast members coming back when this new sitcom premieres on October 16.
