In the new season of “The Conners,” Lecy Goranson’s Becky picks up a second job at Wellman Plastics to make ends meet. (Eric McCandless / ABC)When did you know what would be happening to the Conners this season, and what’s it been like returning under very different circumstances? Laurie Metcalf: I knew it would become part of the show because “The Conners” has always been dealing with what’s going on in everyone’s life. Lecy Goranson: The Conners are always going through crisis, so the family is somewhat prepared for something like this. We’ve got a great crew that still finds us semi-funny in rehearsal, and they will chuckle so we sort of know what’s working.
