roseanne

It may have been the right call, but I think they rushed the decision to cancel the show.

Jimmy Kimmel (and most viewers) actually want it back on the air, but without Roseanne and have it be a spin-off where it features Dan as a single father.

I agree Sendmicheck, good grief, Trump says racist crap all the time and is constantly tweeting. But they sure haven't canceled him I heard he was advocating for her haha. But the thing is, I  didn't think it was all THAT bad, and she did apologize and removed the tweet and closed her account. Sheesh, they could at least give her a warning first. They didn't hurt the cast near as much as the fans. I love the show, always have, always will, and I also heard that FOX might pick it up. I'm all for that!!

But yet you have no problem with the racist crap spewed about Trump, his young son, or his wife?  I do not think he is advocating for her.  That is just fake news.

I am curious as to why the idiot who called Trump's wife a something c**nt didn't loose her show or job? Oh because it depends on who you insult as to if anything is going to be done about it.

So why not just do the show like it is and have her die in an accident?  They kill off characters all the time.

Yeah it was sad that Roseanne put all of these people out of work. Did she apologize? Maybe someone will *bleep* Dan and the kids and put them in another sitcom.

If you intimate that black people are apes, and the company that carries your show is run by a black woman, you  might have expected some problems. 

Sometimes it pays to keep your mouth shut.

 

That why I don't tweet or even do Face Book anymore....

Do like me and have a facebook page for your dog !    Bunches has 630 friends !   

Might have to sign up again and be his buddy...had a facebook page, went to sign in and they said had to change my password.
When I did, sent me to a completely new page...couldn't get on my old one....emailed them and they never got back to...my old page is out there somewhere...

Just said the heck with it, never went back...

The same thing happened recently with me and Facebook.  I was perfectly happy with my page and had it for some time.  Everything was going along perfectly well until one day Facebook decided I had to either receive a code by text or email.  Well, guess what?  I never updated my old phone or email.  Both were long gone.  So I tried to contact them but nothing happened.  I set up a new page thinking I could just deactivate it once they got back to me.  I had provided my new phone and email.  But, no, nothing happened.  Now I have two Facebook pages it looks like and it is sort of a pain in the ***! Only the newest one streams on my smartphone.  I know there must be some way to fix it, but frankly, I just haven't felt like it yet.

Yeah...me neither....I'll get around to it someday...maybe...kinda...sorta...

I haven't seen the new show of Roseanne and I didn't even know that they canceled the show.

[s34g35j]

did not like the first one so it is no surprise

[joywalk637]

I believe she deserved to be fired for the inappropriate / racist tweet she made. She should have thought about it before posting it. I don't understand how she wasn't expecting a negative backlash especially with the ABC president being black. I also feel that her apology was not sincere after she posted more tweets after and in the following days going back and forth. I watched Roseanne when I was younger and liked the show; I didn't want the newest season. I hope they do bring the news show back without Roseanne because all the cast & crew shouldn't be affected by her bad choices.

[gaylasue]

I haven't liked Roseanne Barr for a long time.  I quit watching her show after about the first year or so. 

[mrsmere]

I never liked her show nor the way she mangled that song.  The medicine didn't make her tweet those things they are her true colors.  Everyone is always sorry after their dirt comes to light.

[countrygirl12]

I'm so bummed, this was the first show in a long time that I've actually been enjoying. The original was great and this was going pretty good, especially Jackie and Darlene. What she tweeted was bad but wow they really took immediate action. Guarantee if Roseanne was liberal and that tweet was directed at anyone connected to Trump, there would be no thought at all about axing her show.

What she tweeted was no worse than what everybody else tweets.  There was a horrible tweet about Trump's wife made by a liberal and nothing has been said about it all all.  Called her a something c--nt.  People just laughed at it.  Said she has a right to her opinion.  Well so does Roseanne.

Face is people are horrible to each other and social media is the absolute worse.  If someone has a problem with someone else or if you go to McDonald's and the cashier doesn't just honey drop kiss your butt then you go online and trash them and demand they be fired.  And if you get enough people to jump on your band wagon then you get that person in trouble when in reality they done nothing wrong.  This world is pathetic and getting worse.

WHY would you do another spin off.  Just kill her off if they want to fire her over this.

[countrygirl12]

Well, she (or anyone) doesn't HAVE to like any particular person or group. A person doesn't HAVE to like black people or white people or Christians or Atheists or Muslims or LGBTQ or women or men or liberals or conservatives. But it's better for everyone if you keep that to yourself. Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequences.

I stopped watching/reading the news and I quit all my social media accounts, because I'm so tired of everyone tearing everyone else down. The internet has really exposed how savage people can be.

Freedom of speech means just that.  You have the freedom of speech.  I can say whatever I want to say.  Saying if you do not like someone to keep it to yourself is denying freedom of speech.  I do not have to like you. I can voice that. Does not mean you have the right to get me fired from my job.  No, saying bad stuff about other people is not right but neither is a lot of other stuff going on in this world.

I have seen it happen personally where some whine bag got mad because someone said something negative about her business.  The comment made was completely true.  And it wasn't posted online or anything like that.  Just a simple comment made about something witnessed in her store.  SO she runs her mouth and ends up getting the person fired from her job.  Boils down to money talks.  And the two businesses had nothing to do with each other.  She just knew where the other person worked and went to her superiors and basically told them I want her fired or I will not do business with you any longer so they gave her what she wanted.

People are just down right evil.
