As the critically acclaimed sitcom “The Conners” prepares to embark on its seventh season, the show’s lead actress, Lecy Goranson, has opened up about her thoughts on how the series should ultimately conclude.
Goranson, who has reprised her iconic role as Becky Conner-Healy since the original “Roseanne” series, expressed the importance of honoring the Conner family’s legacy and providing a satisfying sendoff for the beloved characters.
“The Conners have been a part of our lives for so long, and I think it’s crucial that we give them a finale that really captures the essence of who they are and what they’ve meant to all of us,” Goranson said in a recent interview.
The actress emphasized the need to strike a balance between nostalgia and progress, ensuring that the show’s conclusion pays tribute to the Conners’ rich history while also looking towards the future.
“These characters have faced so many challenges and triumphs over the years, and I think the finale should reflect that – honoring the past while also exploring the new possibilities that lie ahead for this family,” Goranson explained.
While Goranson remained tight-lipped on the specific details of how she envisions the show’s conclusion, she did hint at the importance of crafting a finale that resonates with the show’s devoted fanbase.
“The Conners have always been about finding the humor and the heart in the struggles of everyday life, and I think the finale should capture that spirit,” the actress said. “It’s not just about tying up loose ends, but really celebrating the essence of who these characters are and what they’ve meant to all of us.”
Goranson’s comments come amid reports that “The Conners” has been renewed for a seventh season, ensuring that the Conner family’s journey will continue for at least one more year.
As the show’s creative team begins to map out the path towards the series’ eventual conclusion, Goranson’s insights and vision for a fitting finale offer a glimpse into the care and consideration that will likely go into crafting the Conners’ final chapter.
“These characters have become such an integral part of our lives, and I know the fans feel that same connection,” Goranson said. “Whatever happens, I just hope we can give them a sendoff that truly does justice to the Conner legacy.”
