In what is sure to be a devastating blow to fans of the show, DJ will not appear in the upcoming season, though his daughter will remain a recurring character.

I wouldn't have even realized he was no longer there. As I posted before he really brings nothing to the storyline.

I just watched the season premiere. Glad they finally shot a new opening! Was just an ok episode. Having Mark (who seems to get taller and taller) & Harris get drunk reminded me of the Roseanne storyline where Becky & her friend got drunk. That one was much funnier. Not sure what path this season is going to take besides Darlene & Ben moving into their new home.

I just realized...  DJ's overseas reuniting with his wife, and the whole family went away in the episode... did we see DJ's kid?  Where was she?  She's supposedly still living with them.

I’m still wondering what happened to Jerry and Jackies kid (I think his name was Andy).   It’s like they didn’t exist.   Also wonder what happened that Bev is no longer gay.

The character I really miss is Leon.   He might be as funny though now that Roseanne isnt on the show.   I loved the way they would bicker.

Jayden Rey who played DJ's daughter Mary won't be back for the final season. Although the article says she won't return as a series regular which makes me think she could be back for one or two episodes. No word on if DJ will appear but guessing no if she is not. The article headline goes a bit overboard though calling her a major character. I don't think I would have even noticed her missing if you didn't tell me.

I can't believe ABC renewed this for a seventh season. What are they thinking ?

I just found this out yesterday! I was wondering why on my TV guide it was coming up as a season finale and not series finale on the episode description for tonight. It's only going to be six episodes though as @samhexum pointed out. I'm guessing the writers had a pretty solid idea of what they wanted to do for the final season and after the strikes wiped out a good chunk of episodes they needed to come back next year.

I'm glad they are getting the chance for an appropriate send-off, but the truth is that the writing has been quite weak this season.  Lots of scenes of characters acting stupidly...  The scene at the bank last night, Jackie at Louise's school board speech, Darlene with Mark's counselor in the cafeteria, just to mention three.

And did you think Dan was going to re-mortgage the house to pay for Mark's college?

The episode last week was pretty good. The scene with Mark coming home drunk and going off on Becky & Darlene was really good and the scene on the plane with Dan & Jackie was great too. This gives a chance as well next season to bring back David one more time maybe and George Clooney although I don't see how he would fit in to any storyline other than just a quick run in somehow since Jackie has Neville and they are good together. Plus Bev is still on the loose somewhere and they need to have her back. I have wanted Leon to appear too in an episode! Mark just needs to take on a butt load of student loans or get a sugar daddy and college will be solved.
