Roseanne is coming back to television for eight episode season

Roseanne is set to return to television for a new eight episode run. Roseanne Barr, John Goodman, Sara Gilbert and Laurie Metcalf are all set to return according to Deadline. Roseanne was broadcast on ABC from October 18, 1988, to May 20, 1997, but will possibly return to screens later this year to celebrate the 20th anniversary.

A breakout hit at a time when they were few and far between, the series casts actors — led by comedy star Roseanne — who look like ordinary people. Beneath the show’s barrage of caustic one-liners, the Conner family deals with everyday problems like juggling work and family, and trying to make ends meet.

The original series’ executive producers Tom Werner, Barr and Bruce Helford are returning. Multiple networks are said to be bidding to air the return, including original network ABC and Netflix.
