The Conners Trivia:

The series, "Roseanne" returned to TV for a 10th season in 2018 after a 21 year hiatus! Roseanne Barr was fired from the cast after she posted a racist tweet that compared former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett to a monkey. ABC immediately cancelled fired Roseanne and cancelled the series but then brought back the rest of the cast 5 months later as "The Conners"! Roseanne Barr said later that she regretted tweeting her remarks. The Conners explained the missing mom by saying that she died of a heart attack following knee surgery but then the Coroner’s Office autopsy revealed that Roseanne overdosed on opioids due to pain from her surgery.
