Walt Disney Co’s ABC broadcast network is bringing back Roseanne, starring Roseanne Barr and John Goodman, for nine episodes starting 27 March.
The March revival of hit 1990s television comedy Roseanne will show how a politically divided, working-class American family grapples with daily life and challenges after the election of US President Donald Trump, the show’s stars said on Monday.
The original Roseanne aired from 1988 to 1997 and was the most-watched show on US television in 1989 and 1990.
The revival will also deal with topical issues such as opioid addiction and access to healthcare, Helford said.
