'The Conners' first look: ABC releases first photos from 'Roseanne' spinoff

'A sudden turn of events forces the Conners to face the daily struggles of life in Lanford in a way they never have before' in the pilot episode of ABC's 'The Conners'

ABC has released the first images from 'The Conners', - its spinoff from the canceled 'Roseanne' - set to premiere on October 16.

The photos (which you can check out below) feature all the original-series and revival regulars (except for Rosanne Barr), including John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Michael Fishman and Lecy Goranson along with Jayden Rey, Ames McNamara and Emma Kenney, who play the Conners’ grandkids and were upped to regular roles for the spinoff.

The sitcom continues with the Conner family saga without Roseanne Barr, who was fired from the successful 'Roseanne' revival in the aftermath of her racist tweet about Valerie Jarrett, a former senior adviser to President Barack Obama.
