When rumors started swirling that Roseanne was coming back, fans had 2 questions. The first one is how are the going to explain how Dan is alive and the second one is which Becky would play her in the revival.
Today, when ABC announced that the beloved sitcom is coming back in 2018, they answered one of the questions. In the press release announcing the cast they said, “The eight-episode reboot, featuring the original cast – Roseanne Barr (Roseanne), John Goodman (Dan), Sara Gilbert (Darlene), Laurie Metcalf (Jackie), Michael Fishman (D.J.) and Lecy Goranson (Becky)… Sarah Chalke, who played the character Becky in later seasons, will also appear in another role.” Hopefully her name will still be Becky because that is how we know her.
When it comes to show coming back, I am hoping it still has its ’90s feel because today’s sitcom are missing the long lasting feel that the comedic programs had in the latter part of last century and we need that. We also need the realness of Roseanne.
