Considering Roseanne’s revival season will be nine episodes, as opposed to the longer runs of years past, it’s perhaps understandable that we won’t be seeing a ton of either of these characters.
Estelle Parsons, who’s at the ripe age of 90, will be back for two episodes as Roseanne’s nag-happy mother Beverly Harris.
She’d always put forth a more buttoned-down personality, in contrast to her more progressive family members, although she did come out as a lesbian in that misguided final season.
We’re assuming the character will remain gay in the revival, even though that reveal was retconned by the ridiculous “it was all part of a memoir” finale twist.
