Most Anticipated New TV Shows of 20182 of 10
9. "Roseanne" (ABC)
TV viewers have certainly been treated to many notable reboots of cherished '90s-era sitcoms in recent years, but the return of "Roseanne" is especially significant, given the impact and enduring success of the show's initial run. Not only was the show consistently lauded by critics and awards voters for breaking significant ground on a whole host of cultural issues, but it also was consistently popular, generating top ratings through most of its nine seasons. The long anticipated reboot will serve up nine new episodes and will return nearly all the original cast. In fact, viewers will be treated to the show's two Beckys (Alicia Goranson will reprise the role while Sarah Chalke will play another role) in addition to John Goodman, who will portray a very-much-alive Dan Conner, despite the character's death that was revealed in the show's initial series finale.
Premieres Tuesday, March 27, on ABC
