Goodbye to Rosanne

ABC has canceled her show after her racist rant. I am not sad.

I really think there is something wrong with her. I only saw part of her new show 1 time

Anyone who didn't see this coming, hasn't been paying attention.

Didn't watch the show but I agree that there may be some real mental issues. Very glad ABC did the right thing

@suzyQ3, is that really true? I feel you're an entertainer, I don't need to hear your political views. I'm not sorry for her, but feel bad for her cast.

@QVCkitty1 This is not the first time she's done this. You are sooo on point!

really enjoyed the original show......really enjoyed the reboot and was looking forward to its second season.

i did NOT enjoy hearing what i heard today regarding what she said about valerie jarrett. it was racist and uncalled for to say the least.

via CNN

Sara Gilbert, who plays Barr's daughter on the ABC sitcom, tweeted that Barr's comments are "abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show."

Gilbert added: "This is incredibly sad and difficult for all of us, as we've created a show that we believe in, are proud of, and that audiences love — one that is separate and apart from the opinions and words of one cast member."

This isn't the first time or even the second of the third that Roseanne has been racist and hateful. I'm glad ABC acted fast on this.

What did she say?

I hope another network picks it up. There is so little to watch on TV.

An entertainer , I always enjoy her posts. I don't consider them any more entertaining than anyone elses

They are well thought out ,and explained, you might not agree with her, but she is someone who can stand her corner ,and back it up, according to her views

maybe they could call it "AFTER ROSEANNE" and continue on without her?

i dont know......these days, with so many viewing options, you never know just who might be picked up and by whom.

ABC reacted quickly and made the absolute correct call.

Good news!

Ugly arrogance and hatred should not go unchecked.

Thank-you ABC!!!!!!!! And if another network does decide to pick her show up then hopefully it will just be her alone!

I’m not sad for her.

Non-stop commercials.
