Overview

• John Goodman said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that he hasn’t spoken to Barr for about seven to eight years and doubts she would want to reconnect.
• That silence dates to ABC’s 2018 cancellation of Roseanne after Barr posted a racist tweet, prompting the network to launch The Conners spinoff.
• Goodman recalled their immediate on-screen chemistry that once attracted up to 30 million viewers.
• The Conners ran for seven seasons from 2018 to April 2025, writing off Barr’s character via an opioid overdose.
• Barr has confirmed she is no longer in touch with any former co-stars, describing them as "all in the past."
