Even as programming schedules remain unpredictable,
The Conners has kept some traditions alive. Last October, Michael Fishman helmed the show’s Halloween episode (which tripled as a pandemic/election special), and this week, the cast welcomes its latest guest star, as Candice Bergen arrives in Lanford. Bergen, who recently led her own sitcom revival, plays Barb, the acid-tongued mother of Ben (Jay R. Ferguson), who is herself a Lanford native. But that doesn’t mean she hits it off with the Conner family in this
A.V. Club exclusive clip from tonight’s episode, “A Cold Mom, A Brother Daddy And A Prison Baby,” Barb more than lives up to her name.
The Conners has added another big name to the cast.
When the ABC sitcom returns from its holiday hiatus next month, Candice Bergen will be on board. The 74-year-old
Murphy Brown star will play the mother of Darlene s (Sara Gilbert) boyfriend, Ben (Jay R. Ferguson), according to
In the episode, Bergen s character Barb shows up at the Conner clan s Lanford home after an unexpected death and delivers shocking information from the past to her son. The character is described as having superior air and a sharp tongue, and she is also not a fan of Ben s relationship with divorced mom-of-two Darlene until she gets a few drinks in her, that is.
