The tenth and final season of the American television sitcom Roseanne follows the Conners, a working-class family, struggling to get by on a limited household income in their home at 714 Delaware Street in the drab fictional mid-state exurb of Lanford, Illinois.
ABC, which had an option on the spinoff, initially expressed interest but withdrew from negotiations due to the high cost, with a different network poised to pick up the project.
[22] However, after failed discussions with CBS and Fox, Barr and Carsey-Werner agreed "to call it a day" and discontinue the negotiations for the spinoff.
[24] In December 2009, Barr posted an entry on her website regarding what a possible Roseanne reunion would be like, which included: DJ getting published, Mark dying in Iraq; David leaving Darlene for a woman half his age, Darlene coming out and meeting a woman and having a test tube baby with her, Roseanne and Jackie opening the first medical marijuana dispensary in Lanford, Dan reappearing alive after faking his death [in the series finale], and Bonnie being arrested for selling crack.
[8] Also returning from earlier in the series are Judy Prescott as Miss Crane,[9] Estelle Parsons as Beverly Harris,[10] Sandra Bernhard as Nancy Bartlett,[10] Natalie West as Crystal Anderson,[8] James Pickens, Jr. as Chuck Mitchell,[8] Adilah Barnes as Anne Marie Mitchell,[8] and Johnny Galecki as David Healy.
[32] The first trailer for the season premiered during the 90th Academy Awards on March 4, 2018,[33] which Emily Longeretta for Us Weekly commented that "the comedy wasted no time when it came to cracking jokes about its ending.
Branding appeared throughout the track, including the pace car, infield grass logo, and in the victory lane, with Michael Fishman serving as grand marshal.
The website's critical consensus reads, "Roseanne's return finds the show's classic format, original cast, and timely humor intact, even if the latest batch of episodes suffers from sporadically uneven execution.
