Later, she got a role in a TV show known as Roseanne. She played the character ‘Becky Conner’ for five seasons but eventually left the series in 1992, several episodes into the fifth season.

Her leaving was not as a result of a fall-out with anyone but to pursue an education at Vassar College.

Her schedule, however, officially allowed her to continue making a part-time appearance as Becky. Following the new arrangement, the producers and writers of the show consciously wrote scenes for Becky in an infrequent manner.

When Lecy Goranson could no longer continue with playing the role, the writers had to arrange for the character, Becky, to elope with her boyfriend, Mark Healy, played by Glenn Quinn.

Her exit from the show changed the story and later the producers wanted to have her back in the next season, although not at the beginning, but she was still not available so an audition was held and Sarah Chalke won the role.

Sarah Chalke acted the role of Becky for the remaining part of the sixth season and all of the seventh season.

 

When the show got to its eighth season, Lecy Goranson managed to schedule things so that she could take over the role of Becky again, replacing Chalke.

She appeared consistently at the beginning of the eight season, but by mid-season her schedule was, unfortunately, conflicting with her school timings. Consequently, Lecy had to withdraw from episodes in which the Becky character was very important- Darlene’s wedding and a family trip to Walt Disney World.

Chalke was called back in to cover for Becky for these episodes.

Toward the end of the season, Lecy Goranson disappeared again and reappeared to play Becky. However, after the end of the eighth season, she decided not to carry on due to scheduling conflicts she had during the previous season. For the ninth season, which was also the final, Goranson did not return to the show as Becky Conner Healy, leaving the role to Chalke for the final season.
