More The Conners is a good thing, right?
According to TV Line, ABC has announced the upcoming second season of The Conners will consist of 19 episodes, up considerably from the first season's 11 episode order.
The increase is not a surprise when you consider that The Conners Season 1 averaged 7.5 million viewers and a 1.6 rating in the demo in live + same day results.
Additionally, the Roseanne spinoff managed to vault double digits with delayed viewing factored in, proving that the show really is a hit without Roseanne Barr.
The Conners is the network's highest-rated comedy series and No.3-rated program overall, so the network knows that viewers are watching the show.

"We are proud to be continuing the story of the iconic Conner family," said ABC Entertainment president Karey Burke when the Season 2 renewal was announced in March.
"This team is fearless in their willingness to tackle contemporary issues with humor and heart, and I have no doubt they will continue to outdo themselves."
