Dan Conner is a fictional character in the television series, Roseanne and its spin-off The Conners. He is the husband to Roseanne Conner, and father to two daughters Darlene and Becky Conner, and two sons D.J. Conner and Jerry Garcia Conner. He is portrayed by John Goodman.
Throughout the years, Goodman has won several awards, including a Golden Globe, for his portrayal of Dan Conner.
Roseanne ran from 1988 to 1997. It was revived in 2018 and had been renewed again, but was cancelled in May soon after the revival season as Roseanne Barr, who played Roseanne Conner, made controversial remarks on social media. Broadcaster ABC and the other cast members wished to keep the show going in some form without Barr, and this culminated in the announcement of The Conners, a separate series from Roseanne with Dan as the protagonist, on June 21, 2018. Barr is not involved in any capacity and her character was killed off.
