ABC confirmed on Thursday that it has approved a spinoff series based on the revival of the “Roseanne” sitcom.

As Scope News previously reported, star Roseanne Bar was unceremoniously fired and the popular series canceled after she posted a series of offensive tweets.

The new series, tentatively called “The Conners,” will feature many of the same supporting characters in their existing roles. As for Barr, she will reportedly have no ties, either from a financial or creative standpoint, on the revamped series.
