NEW YORK — Can there be a “Roseanne” without Roseanne? ABC on Tuesday night aired the first episode of “The Conners,” a spinoff of “Roseanne” without Roseanne Barr. The fission of red state-versus-blue state infighting that made the reboot of “Roseanne” such a flashpoint is gone. ABC fired Barr from “Roseanne” after she posted a racist tweet (she apologized). The cast seems to reference the elephant in the room when Dan and Darlene toast Roseanne’s stubbornness.
