Roseanne Barr, once known for her eponymous sitcom but now mostly just known for vocalizing extremely moronic and racist remarks, has returned to continue smearing that sitcom’s legacy with yet another soliloquy.

The Conners, to my surprise, premiered Tuesday night. Marking the continuation of the since-canceled Roseanne revival, original series star and executive producer Roseanne Barr marked the occasion (which, as expected, included the death of Barr’s character) with a predictable tweet about being alive. https://twitter.com/therealroseanne/status/1052371163161088001?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1052371163161088001&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.complex.com%2Fpop-culture%2F2018%2F10%2Froseanne-the-conners-killing-her-opioid-overdose-aint-dead-bitches Barr also shared a full-length statement on the Conners premiere in conjunction with friend Rabbi Shmuley Boteach. “While we wish […]
Can Roseanne thrive without Roseanne? We’ll find out when The Conners premieres in October. The working-class sitcom stars the same cast as last season’s highest-rated show — John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, etc. — with one major exception: Roseanne Barr, who was fired by ABC over “abhorrent” comments she made on Twitter. She won’t be creatively or financially involved with the Lanford-set spinoff, and […]

It’s almost as if she likes stepping in doo-doo … on purpose!

Roseanne Barr is still apologizing for her racist tweets that led to her ABC show being cancelled.

Looks like ABC is not about to let the Roseanne revival die, even after its titular star, in a state of allegedly Ambien-fueled racism, sent out a tweet describing former Barack Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett as a product of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Planet of the Apes.

The rebooted Roseanne made it 10 episodes before getting the boot, after star Roseanne Barr wrote a racially charged tweet about Obama advisor Valerie Jarret. ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey, who issued a statement condemning Barr’s “abhorrent” and “repugnant” Twitter statement, canceled the show, but the non-Barr actors, including John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, and Sara […]
