"If you were coming up with an actor to step in and play opposite John Goodman, I can’t think of anyone better than Katey Sagal," says Brett White. "First off, let’s just talk about how she–like John Goodman and Roseanne Barr–is sitcom royalty. She was Peg Bundy in the Married… with Children cast, for crying out loud! Her guest-starring on The Conners is a big deal, even removing the potential romance between Louise and Dan. This represents a meeting of the matriarch and the patriarch of the two most controversial family sitcoms of the ’80s, Married… with Children and Roseanne, a pairing that sitcom fans like myself never knew we always wanted. She played Peg for 11 seasons, which spanned the entirety of Roseanne’s run (Married… with Children debuted a year before Roseanne and wrapped a month after Roseanne)."
