Fans of the classic television sitcom Roseanne will have much to look forward to when Barr’s NBC comedy Downwardly Mobile makes its debut.
Deadline has learned that John Goodman, who played Roseanne’s husband, is very close to being cast for a role.
I’ve learned that, after lengthy negations, Goodman is in final negotiations to join Barr’s new sitcom, the NBC pilot Downwardly Mobile. Co-created by Barr, her boyfriend John Argent and former Roseanne executive producer Eric Gilliland, who will serve as showrunner, the multi-camera Downwardly Mobile stars Barr as the proprietor of a mobile home park and surrogate mother to all of the unique people who live there in a challenging economy. Goodman will play a man who works at the park and has a buddy relationship with Barr’s character.
Will you check out the show for Barr and now Goodman? No premiere date for Downwardly Mobile has been set yet.
