In late April, Deadline reported that the four principal cast members on The Conners — Sara Gilbert, Lecy Goranson, Laurie Metcalf, and John Goodman — signed new deals for Season 4. Their contracts supposedly mirror the ones that they signed for Season 2 and 3, as they agreed to a 20-episode fourth season. While the cast members have reportedly signed new contracts for an additional season of The Conners, the show has not officially been picked up just yet.

Although, all signs are pointing to an additional season of the comedy. In addition to the cast signing new contracts, The Conners' production company, Tom Werner's Werner Entertainment, is expected to close on a license fee deal with ABC soon. The series has also been hiring writers for Season 4.
