    What The Conners has going for it, which shouldn't be underestimated, are a couple of world-class actors in John Goodman and Laurie Metcalf as the one-time title character's husband Dan and sister Jackie.

    None of them has ever carried a series before, and as good as they were in The Conners debut, the glue that held the show together was the unseen ghost of Roseanne, as aggravating and amusing as ever, invisible but never absent. I'll believe she's replaceable when I see it.

    Terrible. Total waste of time. I don't even understand why Roseanne wasn't on the show. I thought the show was about her.

    Worst show I've seen in my entire life. Why would they do this. What a ridiculous and insulting premise.
