The Conners, in March, will be airing its 100th episode, the traditional threshold for a series to be able to enter off-network syndication. And in September, the spinoff series will be followed by the mothership Roseanne into broadcast syndication.
The series, produced by Werner Entertainment, has been cleared by Lionsgate’s Debmar-Mercury in more than 85% of the U.S. with multi-year series available in access and early fringe time periods on CBS Television Stations and stations owned by Gray Nexstar, Lockwood, Scripps and Weigel. The Conners star Sara Gilbert, John Goodman, Lecy Goranson, and Laurie Metcalf.
Werner Entertainment in August enlisted Lionsgate’s Worldwide Television Distribution Group and company owned distribution company Debmar-Mercury, with worldwide Television Distribution Group handing global distribution, including SVOD, AVOD, basic cable and FAST rights, and Debmar Mercury shepherding domestic syndication.
