Polling 606 respondents, our survey asked fans to nominate who is their least favorite character in “The Conners.” Our options were Becky Conner-Healy (Lecy Goranson), D.J. Conner (Michael Fishman), Darlene Conner (Sara Gilbert), Mark Conner-Healy (Ames McNamara), Harris Conner-Healy (Emma Kenney), and Jackie Harris (Laurie Metcalf). This means that out of our six options, four of them were original cast members, while two are recent additions. However, after our polling was concluded, fans overwhelmingly voted for D.J. Conner as their least favorite character with 24.42% of the vote. The next closest was Darlene with 21.61%, followed by Becky at 17.33%, Mark at 14.19%, Jackie at 11.72%, and finally Harris at 10.72%.

The fact that many seem to not like D.J. Conner must not have been lost on the series creators, who told the actor that he would not be returning for Season 5. Speaking with People, Michael Fishman said, “While I was told I would not be returning for Season 5, Lanford was a valuable place to grow up, learn and develop. I was incredibly lucky to return home and demonstrate my expansion. As I venture into the world to build the future, I send tremendous love and success to everyone involved in production.” Still, it is surprising to see such a long-tenured “Roseanne” and “The Conners” actor viewed so unfavorably when it comes to fan perception.
