The Conners airs Tuesdays at 8.7c, leading into fellow freshman comedy The Kids Are Alright.
ABC announced on Friday that The Conners‘ freshman run has been extended by one episode, bringing its episode count to 11.
The Roseanne revival itself only ran for nine well-watched episodes last spring, prior to series lead Roseanne Barr tapping Tweet on the quip that would swiftly sink her considerable ship.
The outspoken Barr likened Valerie Jarrett — an Iranian-born former senior advisor to President Barack Obama — to one of the apes from Planet of the Apes.
