There's one scene that really bothers The Conners fans
The credit sequence for "The Conners" has apparently been bothering fans for years. After its third season, Redditor u/jvp180 (https://www.reddit.com/r/TheConners/comments/k1c7ud/i_hope_they_reshoot_the_opening_credits/) started a conversation by saying, "I hope they reshoot the opening credits." Besides mentioning its dated look because the kids have grown up, there's one scene that really disturbs them. "I can't stand watching John Goodman spit out that sausage link and slurp it back into his mouth," they wrote. "It looks like a turd."
"The Conners" title sequence (https://youtu.be/p9QZ3HEXFUA) keeps the iconic introduction of the characters from the original "Roseanne," (https://youtu.be/iSE51IAUZ3M) but at half its length, 30 seconds instead of one minute — and without Roseanne Barr, of course. The camera pans around the family table as the characters sit down for breakfast. When Darlene (Sara Gilbert) hands Dan (John Goodman) a plate of fruit instead of the eggs and meat everyone else is eating, he steals Harris' (Emma Kenney) plate and sneaks a sausage link into his mouth. Darlene catches him, so he partially spits it back out, then sucks it in again.
Many Redditors agree with u/jvp180, and not only because they think it's gross. "That sausage shot makes my brain switch to South Park's 'Mister Hanky The Christmas Poo' (https://www.looper.com/288832/the-untold-truth-of-mr-hankey-the-christmas-poo/) and I DON'T LIKE IT!, HA!" a deleted user (https://www.reddit.com/r/TheConners/comments/k1c7ud/comment/gdnls2o/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) complained.
Fans still feel the same, as a May 2022 thread from u/CPAAlfred (https://www.reddit.com/r/TheConners/comments/uzmgx4/a_partial_bucket_list_for_season_5/) discussed changes they'd like to see in "The Conners" Season 5 (https://www.looper.com/891158/the-big-changes-fans-of-the-conners-want-to-see-in-season-5/). "Dan slurping that sausage down [is] disgusting and that intro is over 4 years old," they pointed out. Many agreed.
