New twist: Roseanne Barr, 65, said that her TV character Roseanne Connor will be depicted as a supporter of President Donald Trump, 71, when the show returns to the air in March. She appeared Monday on a cast panel at the Television Critics Association's Winter Press Tour held at The Langham Huntington in Pasadena

Roseanne opened up about the contemporary aspects that will be integrated into the show, which is returning for an eight-episode run after a 20-year absence from TV.

'I've always attempted to portray a realistic portrait of the American people and of working class people. And in fact it was working class people who elected Trump,' the actress, 65, said, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

She appeared on a dais alongside her co-stars John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Michael Fishman, and Alicia Goranson, who are all reprising their roles from the first run.

Reflecting the times: Roseanne reminded reporters that it 'was working class people who elected Trump,' which makes for a natural fit for the updated show

Still got it: The comedic chemistry was still there for Roseanne and Goodman, who's been a mainstay in entertainment in the two decades since the show's been off the air

Also appearing on the panel for the reboot of the show, which originally ran from 1989 thru 1997, were co-stars Sarah Chalke, Ames McNamara, Emma Kenney, Jayden Rey; and producers Tom Werner, Bruce Helford and Whitney Cummings.

Barr wore a dark red sweater with a grey scarf and black pants and shoes on the dais.

She noted that while she's 'not a Trump apologist,' thinks she could likely do better in the Oval Office than the controversial commander-in-chief - or other celebs linked to politics. She said, 'I think I'd be a better president than Oprah and Susan Sarandon, probably even President Trump.'

Mixed emotions: Roseanne said of Trump, 'There are a lot of things he's said and done I don't agree with'

'There are a lot of things he's said and done I don't agree with, like there's probably a lot of things Hillary Clinton has done and said that you don't agree with,' the veteran entertainer said. 'No one's brainwashed into agreeing with 100 percent of what anybody says, let alone a politician or a candidate.'

Helford noted that the extended cast of the program will reflect a 'full cross-section of ideas and beliefs,' adding that 'there's no agenda on anybody's part but to get honest feelings out there, and within a family that's relatable.'

Gilbert said that the reboot will reflect a politically-divided family, which can be 'a great thing to have' as long as it's still 'filled with love.'

Back again? Many were confused over how John Goodman will appear - after it was revealed Dan (centre) had not survived the heart attack suffered in the pilot, at the end of the series

Who knows! The actor said of his character's original fate and subsequent comeback last week: 'I don't care. I didn't care. It was irrelevant. It was just silly'

'People feel like they can't disagree,' she said, 'and still love each other and talk to each other.'

While fans were delighted by the prospect of a reboot, many were left confused as to how John Goodman will appear - after it was revealed during the final episode his character Dan had not survived the heart attack suffered in the pilot.

Speaking to EW earlier this week, he said of his return: 'The hair on my arms stands up. It's like if I was going to put my Boy Scouts uniform on again and it still fit!'

Confessing he was so excited he did not care how producers planned to bring him back from the dead, he added of his character's original fate: 'I don't care. I didn't care. It was irrelevant. It was just silly.'

Roseanne returns to the air March 27 at 8/7c on ABC.
