Adorable Toddler Dubbed Mini John Goodman From ‘Roseanne’ Becomes Viral Sensation

Meet Robbie Crane, a two-year-old from Tampa, Florida, who has become an internet sensation for his uncanny resemblance to John Goodman’s iconic Roseanne character, Dan Conner. His mom, Michelle, noticed the similarity after a friend pointed out that her toddler’s stocky build, gruff demeanor, and charming personality were a dead ringer for the TV sitcom dad.

In a TikTok video that has since gone viral, Michelle dressed Robbie in the quintessential “Dan Conner” outfit—a plaid flannel shirt, jeans, and a vest. The resemblance to the beloved character, known for his humor and heart, was undeniable, and the internet couldn’t get enough.

Fans of Roseanne have flooded the comments with witty reactions, dubbing Robbie “John Goodboy” and joking about his “blue-collar” persona. With his newfound internet fame, some are even asking for a mini Roseanne to complete the adorable throwback duo.

As Robbie continues to win hearts across social media, his transformation into a pint-sized Dan Conner reminds us of the enduring love for the Roseanne character and adds a nostalgic, lighthearted twist to today’s viral internet culture.

As a Gen Xer who grew up watching “Roseanne,” Michelle respects the comparisons. “Dan Conner is a good dude,” she says.

Like Dan Conner, Robbie loves watching football with his dad, tearing through the house like a “running back,” dancing and singing the ABC song. His nickname (obviously) is “Dan.”

“Robbie is the sweetest cuddle bug you could imagine with the perfect build for it,” says Michelle.
