New ‘Roseanne’ Teaser Shows First Look at Johnny Galecki’s Return

We’re just days away from the Conner family’s triumphant return to television in the new ABC revival season of Roseanne!

This week, ABC released a brand new teaser giving viewers a first look at a reunion between Darlene (played by Sara Gilbert) and her ex-boyfriend David (played by Johnny Galecki).

In the below promo, we see David appearing to enter into Darlene’s room through the window just as he used to do all those years ago.  As he begins to walk around, he points out that the old Conner house looks exactly the same as it always has.  Darlene sarcastically deadpans, “It’s a decorating choice called poverty.”

Check out the promo and first glimpse of David’s return below:

The new season will reunite the original cast members Roseanne Barr (Roseanne), John Goodman (Dan), Laurie Metcalf (Jackie) and Sara Gilbert (Darlene), Michael Fishman (DJ) and Lecy Goranson (Becky).  Sarah Chalke, who also played the role of Becky in the later season, will appear on the series as Andrea, a woman who hires Becky (Goranson) to serve as her surrogate.

In addition to Galecki and the returning main cast, Estelle Parsons (Beverly Harris), Sandra Bernhard (Nancy Bartlett), Natalie West (Crystal Anderson) and more are set to reprise their guest roles as well.

Roseanne will premiere on ABC with a special hour-long episode airing on March 27th at 8 PM.  Each following episode will be a half hour long and will also air at 8 PM on Tuesday nights – the same timeslot the original series ran in through the final two and a half seasons.  Check out our spoiler-free advance review HERE.
