Spoilers below for those who haven’t caught up Conners Season 4, be warned!
For nearly all of its fourth season, Conners hold on to The embarrassing narrative reality of Darlene’s fractious relationshipthe following Their sudden separation in the finale of the third season. However, here we are, two episodes away from Capper this season, and these two characters have moved quickly from Splitsville to more or less engagement, thanks in no small part to the bony-headed Darlene who fell from the roof of her new home. Understandably, it’s unclear exactly where things are headed for the couple again, but Conners Star Ames McNamara thinks viewers should be pumped about what’s coming next.
McNamara spoke with CinemaBlend about the May 4 episode “The Best Laid Plans, A Contrabassoon and A Sinking Feeling,” which featured back Roseanne Guest of Honor Christopher Lloyd as Lou Plus Ben’s big hospital suggestion to Darlene (using a ring of gift shop bear to be returned). When I asked the actor what he could say about that possibly rekindled relationship and Mark’s feelings for her, this is what McNamara told me:
I think Mark is definitely happy with the way things may or may not go. All I will say is that the end of the season is exciting and dramatic. I don’t want to give anything away, but I think viewers should look forward to the end of this season. It’s very cool.
This basically tracks with Ames McNamara’s thoughts earlier in the season, when he shared with us that Mark was fighting for Ben to stay in their lives despite not dating Darlene anymore, he became such a welcome one to the rest of the family during their relationship. Without any recent updates to Mark’s romance with Logan, I’m sure the character would love to have anyone else around who doesn’t share his ancestry. And while I’m not sure Ben’s influence would have completely led Mark away from his pill abuse abuses earlier in Season 4, I can’t imagine he’d cause any harm if he’s been wandering around a lot going forward.
Without even teasing Ames McNamara that things are going to get exciting and exciting when Season 4 comes to an end, ABC has already upgraded its metaphorical hat to what fans can expect ConnersA potentially game-changing epilogue, titled “A Judge And a Priest Walk Into a Living Room…” The episode synopsis makes it clear that the sitcom is following it in some way. Dan and Louise’s wedding was rocked by the weather With three possible weddings. Not only did Ben and Darlene newly wed, but Jackie, Neville, Harris, and Aldo as well. However, it doesn’t really look like the three pairs will be tying the knot, so don’t expect everyone to be smiling by the end of the season.
Speaking of smiles, a lot of fans would probably be happy if ABC went ahead with the official renewal Conners Season 5. One factor that makes the show a little more difficult in this regard is that the cast members are tied to annual deals, as opposed to the standard six-year contracts that networks are known for. That said, it was mentioned In the closing days of April, the main cast members Sarah Gilbert, Laurie Metcalf, John Goodman, and Lacey Goranson reached new agreements for a fifth season of the spin-off, with an official announcement presumably imminent.
When I asked Ames McNamara if he was keen to hear an update on the future of the program, given the possibility of it, he replied with:
Yeah. Yes exactly. No final word yet. But, you know, fingers crossed.
With any luck, ABC and production company Werner Entertainment will be setting out their own episode count and other key terms for the Season 4 finale, so fans can watch knowing there will be some kind of follow-up in the fall. In the meantime, be sure to check out ConnersFinal episodes over the next two Wednesday nights at 9:00 PM ET.
