'The Conners' teaser promo: What does 'Roseanne' look like without Roseanne Barr?

The first promo for The Conners shows that life will go on without Roseanne. ABC’s new Roseanne spinoff reunites the whole family, with the notable exception of Roseanne Barr (who played the title character in the classic ’90s Roseanne sitcom and in last year’s nine-episode revival). With their matriarch gone — reportedly dead from an opioid overdose, though ABC has not confirmed this — her sister Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) appears to be stepping in as head of the family. How Roseanne’s husband, Dan (John Goodman), feels about this isn’t revealed in the promo, but longtime fans might have a guess.

In the preview video, Jackie and Roseanne’s younger daughter, Darlene (Sara Gilbert), discuss budgeting for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. “I say we follow the Conner tradition: Spend every dime we have on Halloween, and then we have nothing to be thankful for or buy gifts with,” Darlene suggests.

Also briefly visible in the clip is new cast member Maya Lynne Robinson, who will be taking over the role of Roseanne’s African-American daughter-in-law, Geena, from Xosha Roquemore.

ABC canceled its 2018 Roseanne revival in May after Barr tweeted racist remarks about President Barack Obama’s former adviser Valerie Jarrett. In June, the network announced a series order for The Conners, following a settlement with Barr in which she agreed to have no financial or creative involvement.

The Conners premieres Tuesday, Oct. 16, at 8 p.m. on ABC.

Kate Bush, The Dreaming : A Pitchfork Review

#KateBush # WutheringHeights # Lionheart # NeverforEver #TheDreaming In 1982, Kate Bush’s daring and dense fourth album marked her transformation into a fearless experimental artist who was legible, audibly very queer, and very obviously in love with pop music. In 1978, Kate Bush first hit the UK pop charts with “Wuthering Heights” off her romantic, ambitious progressive pop debut The Kick Inside. That same year, her more confident, somewhat disappointing follow-up Lionheart and 1980’s Never for Ever had a grip of charting singles that further grew her UK success without achieving mega-stardom—she barely cracked into American college rock. What is truly amazing between the first chapter of her career and the new one that began with 1982’s The Dreaming is how consistently Bush avoided the musical world around her, preferring to hone and blend her literary, film, and musical inspirations (Elton John, David Bowie, and Pink Floyd) into the idiosyncratic perfection that was 1985’s Ho
