The spinoff is reportedly (and fittingly) called Darlene, according to TVLine.
Sara Gilbert was one of the people responsible for getting the ball rolling on the Roseanne revival, and she was among those named as actors willing to explore the possibility of a spinoff without Roseanne Barr on board.
The prospect of a spinoff was not deemed especially likely only days ago, but it’s probably safe to say that a Darlene-centric spinoff is the way to keep Roseanne fans hooked to ABC.
It would center on Darlene and presumably continue to chronicle her struggles as a single mom and all the difficulties (and sitcom shenanigans) that she faces in her lot in life.
