Roseanne Harris Conner is the title character of the TV series Roseanne, created and portrayed by comedian and namesake Roseanne Barr.[1][2] Roseanne is bossy, loud, caustic, overweight, and dominant.[3] She constantly tries to control the lives of her sister, husband, children, co-workers, and friends. Despite her domineering nature, however, Roseanne is a loving wife and mother and loyal friend who works hard and makes as much time for her family as possible.[4]
Roseanne Conner reappeared in the first season of the 2018 revived series, but was written out of the series after Barr was fired in 2018.[5] In the spinoff series The Conners, the character is portrayed as having died of an opioid overdose.[6]
