EXCLUSIVE: Dan meets his mother-in-law (played by Jane Curtin) in the holiday episode of The Conners season 5, airing tonight on ABC.
A new clip from the retooled Roseanne reboot series The Conners introduces Jane Curtin as Dan's mother-in-law. Dan, played by John Goodman, was originally married to star of the show Roseanne before the actor was fired from the series, and in the intervening years he has remarried his former classmate Louise .
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Screen Rant is able to share an exclusive clip from tonight's special holiday episode of The Conners, titled "The Dog Days of Christmas." The clip reveals that Louise's mother has paid her a surprise visit after hearing she has been having some career woes. Dan is awkwardly introduced to her, and she instantly makes her opinion of him known, describing his wedding with Louise as her daughter "shacking up with some drywaller.
For one thing, this is just Curtin's first appearance of several that will be spread throughout the remaining 12 episodes. Mothers-in-law are archetypical characters in classic sitcoms, typically forcing a wedge between the couples at the center of family comedies. Whether Curtin's character will embrace the trope by continuing her hatred of Dan or subvert it by eventually warming to him remains unknown.
The Conners has also teased that a major Roseanne character will be returning later in the season. Considering how many main cast members and side characters have already come back for the reboot series, this narrows the possibilities considerably, even though the promised guest appearance is still shrouded in mystery. Currently, many fans have been speculating that this announcement may herald the return of Martin Mull as Roseanne's former taskmaster boss Leon Carp.
