The Conners are sticking around at ABC. The series has been renewed for its sixth season, the network announced Tuesday. The pickup is for 13 episodes, with an option for nine more, we hear.
Robinson will play Geena Williams-Conner, DJ’s (Michael Fishman) wife and Mary’s (Jayden Rey) mother, who returns home from active duty overseas in Afghanistan. Her character first appeared in the iconic episode from the original “Roseanne” series, “White Men Can’t Kiss,” (OAD: 11/16/94).
