Watch the trailer for the upcoming Roseanne reboot
Roseanne is back, and a short teaser of its highly anticipated return aired during the Oscars, giving viewers a glimpse of the modern-day Conners.
Everything looks almost exactly the same, with that colorful afghan still on the living room couch, but there are now several grandchildren in the mix, and unlike in the finale, where Dan Conner (John Goodman) is dead, he's still alive and kicking in the reboot — although he does need a CPAP to sleep. It's not in the trailer, but Roseanne Barr already revealed earlier this year that art imitates life, and her character will also be a supporter of President Trump. Roseanne returns to ABC on March 27, and in the meantime, watch the teaser below. Catherine Garcia
