We're not done seeing reboots of classic '90s television just yet. A nine-episode "Roseanne" revival is coming to ABC March 27 along with most of the original cast.
The comedy made its mark on TV history for highlighting blue-collar working families realistically through the Conner family's struggles with poverty, obesity, and employment. During the '90s, "Roseanne" was progressive for its brash and bold way of tackling current topics and sexuality.
When the show returns this spring, don't expect it to shy away from Trump, politics, and healthcare.
Before the Conners return to our living rooms, take a look back at how the actors have changed since the show debuted in October 1988.
THEN: Roseanne Barr played the outspoken matriarch of the Conner family, also named Roseanne.
ABCRoseanne has always been loud, proud, and not afraid to tell it how it is. During the original nine-season run, the show revolved around her relationship with her sister Jackie, the ups and downs of her marriage, and the couple's children.
Throughout the series, she struggled with obesity, poverty, and holding several different jobs as a waitress and fast-food employee before eventually co-owning a restaurant with her sister.
NOW: One of the top moms of comedy TV looks amazing at 65.

Barr is among the writers on the revival along with Whitney Cummings, Wanda Sykes, and Norm McDonald.
THEN: John Goodman was Roseanne's laid-back contractor husband, Dan Conner.
ABCDan eventually opened a motorcycle shop later on the show.
It will be interesting to see how Dan is re-written into the show. His character was killed off the series at the show's end after it was revealed he suffered a heart attack at Darlene and David's wedding.
