‘The Conners’ Cast Reveal What They Took from Set as Show Ends After 7 Seasons (Exclusive)

The stars of The Conners will always have a piece of the show with them after the ABC sitcom ended after seven seasons.

During PEOPLE’s visit to the set during their final week of filming in September, the cast revealed what they planned to take from the set as a memento of their time on the series.

John Goodman, who began playing beloved patriarch Dan Conner on Roseanne nearly four decades ago, said he and his costars had already been given a quilt. However, he was still “going to look around and nab something,” adding, “I’ll probably filch something before the end of the day. Probably some wardrobe.”

When asked if he made a habit of taking costumes from his projects, Goodman, 72, shared, “I’ve been gifted wardrobe from other shows, I’ll say that. I used to get my whole year’s lineup of suits and shirts from Saturday Night Live…except I had to have all the Velcro parts buttoned up.”

His costar Sara Gilbert, who first played Darlene Conner on Roseanne before reprising the role on The Conners, was considering taking “one of the old pictures of us as a kid that’s up there because there’s real pictures of us.”

The actress, 50, admits the mementos don’t “hold the memories the same way as just the memories,” adding, “But, I’ll try to find something.”

Emma Kenney, who first appeared as Harris Conner on season 10 of Roseanne and later reprised the role on the spinoff, shared, “I took a mug from The Lunch Box the other day. It’s already in my pantry.”

Laurie Metcalf, who plays Jackie Harris on both The Conners and Roseanne, admitted she was inspired by her surroundings during her interview with Kenney, 25, at one of the tables at the show’s tavern, The Lobo Lounge.

“I’m looking around The Lobo,” she said, to which Kenney said, “I have a shirt from The Lobo.”

“I mean, I don’t even have a Lobo Lounge shirt,” the actress, 69, shared. Kenney teased, “You got to get one.”

“I might take one right off the wall,” Metcalf said.

Metcalf, 69, added that she was considering taking another wardrobe staple, saying, “I’ve worn the same winter coat… My blue coat with the fur. I’ve worn that for 30 years. That might be fun to take.”

Goodman admitted to PEOPLE that saying goodbye to The Conners — which aired its series finale on April 23 — has been “really hard.”

“It’s something I’m going to miss for a while. I’m old and resistant to change,” Goodman said.

The actor admitted that the last seven seasons of the spinoff have gone by “so fast,” adding, “It was so exciting when we got this together, and it seems like it was two weeks ago.”

Gilbert shared, “I think we just have such a good time, and we laugh a lot. And the group, not just the cast, but the crew as well, the writers. It feels like family, and because we did it for so many years, it’s sort of deep in our soul. And so that is hard to imagine being without.”
