Eric Deggans NPR Nov 23, 2019
It seems the show has returned to its roots as an exploration of the challenges facing a working-class family that mostly avoids partisanship and values diversity. The humor is stilted and awkward at times, but its emotional core remains. Go to Full Review Danette Chavez AV Club Sep 25, 2019
C+
Altogether, these staples produce little flavor; maybe it's the lack of a shadow to emerge from, but "Preemies, Weed And Infidelity" is rarely ever more than just fine. Go to Full Review Alci Rengifo Entertainment Voice Sep 26, 2019
"The Conners" returns to remind us what primetime used to be. Producers Bruce Helford, Bruce Rasmussen, and Dave Caplan keep the "Roseanne" 90's format intact while still updating it for new viewers. Go to Full Review Mads Misasi Tell-Tale TV Sep 25, 2019
4/5
It's a stellar move that really allows these characters to expand their emotional depths a little bit further. Go to Full Review Christine Orlando TV Fanatic Sep 25, 2019
4.0/5.0
This season premiere was far from perfect, but it did what I expect of the show, it made me laugh out loud, shake my head, and sometimes yell at the screen. Go to Full Review Roger Catlin rogercatlin.com Sep 24, 2019
It's got a strong cast... with Laurie Metcalf and John Goodman leading the way. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
