The Conners is set to return for its sixth season on Wednesday, February 7, on ABC, and the show’s executive producers have dropped some teases about what fans can expect. First and foremost, Lecy Goranson‘s Becky will continue her newfound romance with FedEx pilot Tyler, played by Sean Astin, who will reprise his Season 5 role. “[Astin’s] in two of the first five episodes, and we’ve got plans for more of him,” executive producer Bruce Helford told TVLine. “It’s really nice because it’s the first time since Mark from the Roseanne days that we’ve really found someone where the chemistry is right for Lecy Goranson and for the Becky character.” These episodes will see Becky introduce Tyler to Dan (John Goodman), Jackie (Laurie Metcalf), Darlene (Sara Gilbert), and, eventually, her daughter, Beverly Rose (Charlotte Sanchez).

Dancing With the Stars season 32 kicked off spectacularly with a new cast of celebrities (and one new pro) who put their best foot forward in the ballroom. However, at the end of the episode, one celebrity was sent home after just one dance. Fans called foul on Matt Walsh’s elimination, looking for “justice” and calling it “unfair.”
‘DWTS’ fans fired up after Matt Walsh and pro-Koko Iwasaki were sent home during episode 1
The premiere episode of DWTS season 32 displayed a range of talent from the newly-minted celebrity competitors. With only three weeks to learn the basics of ballroom dance and its techniques, it was a race to the finish to master their routines before the first live show of the season.
However, of all the celebrities who signed up for the series, only one took a step back to stand in solidarity with the then-ongoing WGA (Writers Guild of America) strike,...

The news of Vanna White extending her “Wheel of Fortune” contract through to the 2025-2026 TV season had Hoda Kotb recalling her own difficulties getting a raise.
On Wednesday’s episode of “Today With Hoda & Jenna”, Kotb and co-host Jenna Bush Hager discussed the reports that White had not had a pay raise in nearly two decades.
According to Puck News, the 66-year-old TV personality hired an “aggressive new lawyer” to get her raise amid ongoing negotiations. Although White, who joined the show a year after it premiered in 1981, is undoubtedly synonymous with “Wheel of Fortune”, the outlet claimed she made $3 million a year, while Pat Sajak was earning five times that. Sony declined to comment on the report at the time.
