Their mini-reunion comes a day after ABC released a fresh set of shots of the cast of the rebooted Roseanne, which returns for an eight-episode slate in the upcoming months.
The show will bring back all of the original stars, with Roseanne and John starring as Roseanne and Dan Conner, with Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Michael Fishman and Alicia Goranson reprising their roles from the first run.
Sarah Chalke, who played Becky after Goranson's 1993 departure to attend college, will play a new role on the reboot as a character named Andrea.

Emma Kenney, Ames McNamara and Jayden Rey are among the new cast members on the comedy, which originally ran from 1989 thru 1997.
As many fans remember, Goodman's paternal character Dan died in the show's 1997 finale, but that storyline twist will be disregarded in his return to the show.
The program itself nodded at the change of direction in a teaser clip released last month in which Dan - alive and well - sat on a couch with Becky taking in a basketball game.
Keep on moving: Goodman reprises his role on the show as Dan Connor, whose character was killed off at the end of the show's first run
Bragging rights: Goodman's career has thrived since the show went off the air, with his most bandied-about performance coming in 1998's The Big Lebowski. Gilbert has had tremendous success with The Talk on CBS
Reassuring: Roseanne has maintained her presence on TV throughout the years, with special cameos on shows such as The Office, My Name Is Earl and 3rd Rock from the Sun
Strong run: Roseanne (L), with Laurie Metcalf (R), parlayed her success into films such as Look Who's Talking and the cult classic She Devil
Dan mused, 'I still think the Bulls of '96, '97, would have beat these guys anytime,' to which Roseanne shot back, 'You can't live in the past, Dan! When things are gone, they're gone forever.'
Goodman earlier this week told Entertainment Weekly that things had hardly missed a beat when the cast reconvened for the new programs.
'It was like we wrapped last week instead of 20 years ago,' said Goodman, who's appeared in notable films such as The Big Lebowski, Argo and Flight since the show went off the air. '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.'
Legend: Roseanne was one of the preeminent names atop TV and comedy in the late 80s and 90s, and looks to be headed for a huge revival
He's back: Goodman's death at the end of the series in 1997 will be disregarded in his return to the show

Becky squared: Both the actress who originally played the Becky character, Alicia Goranson (L), and her replacement, Sarah Chalke (R), have signed on for the series
In announcing the program's comeback after more than two decades, ABC Entertainment's president Channing Dungey said in a statement that 'the Conners' joys and struggles are as relevant - and hilarious - today as they were then, and there's really no one better to comment on our modern America than Roseanne.'
Roseanne returns to the air March 27 at 8/7c on ABC.
The next generation: Jayden Rey (L) and Emma Kenny (R) are newcomers to the rebooted program
Comeback: Michael Fishman, who's been seen in sporadic projects since the show went off the air, reprises his role as D.J.
