I just saw that. Too bad, the show was actually one of the better revivals. I feel bad for the cast, it sucks they have to pay because she can't keep her mouth shut.

Hmmm why does this sound so familiar? Didn’t Tim Allen make a joke about how you can’t be a republican in the media industry and his show got cancelled right after that even though it was doing well in ratings? They cancelled both shows because of their views.
ABC is not very friendly to conservatives i’ve learned. Hopefully Fox will pick it back up.

Yeah,but Colbert,kimmell and SNL and all the other crap because it disrespects the president? You have to be really low if all you can come up with is jokes on how to insult someone in office. |

Well, I've never liked Roseanne, the show or the person, but canceling a show for a statement someone made on her own time (and then apologized for) seems a bit harsh. Awful statement, though.

She'd been Trump shilling in it from episoe 1. It was cancelled because she said something stupid and racist, which I'd like to think isn't strictly conservative. |

As far as the show itself goes, I'm not too upset. They character assassinated David, and Darlene's daughter was annoying. The laughs weren't really there, either.

Tim Allen didn't make a racist comment and try to pass it off as just a joke. I don't think he belongs lumped in with Roseanne.
Roseanne got canned for her racist views, not because she's super-Republican.
It's a shame, her show was good. Now all her coworkers and crew are unemployed.

Someone even said that his son grandson looks like a school shooter yet they get to keep their show on the air. It’s called Double Standard. |

On one show he jokingly made a woman touch his dick. Yeah because Democraps are so classy 🙄 Again ABC is very anti conservative. |

Ironically, it was more Sara Gilberts show about the Connors than Roseanne's. I enjoyed it, watched all the episodes, and I am a dyed-in-the-wool liberal. After the first episode setup, it was barely political. Roseanne (the character) even got her comeuppance when the Muslim family she feared turned out to be extremely nice (had gotten a huge order of fertilizer by accident).

Making jokes about rich white people isn't anywhere near as bad as comparing a black woman to an ape, a racist slur. I imagine the Trumps have feelings that get hurt, but they were never down-trodden and told to sit at the back of the bus. |

Colbert and Kimmell are white guys, clowning on a white guy, as is the majority of SNL. So there's a bit of a difference. Also, they get to stay on the air because the network chooses to keep them. Do you want the government to regulate who they can and can can't cancel? |

I don’t know what Roseanne is like so why should I defend someone I barely know. I’m just stating that ABC has been known to be very anti conservative. |

Also I liked her show because of Goodman. Not because of Roseanne herself. I never really thought Roseanne had all that much talent and am led to believe that Goodman was what kept the show going for so many years.

why should this surprise anyone?
the Roseanne show should have been no more when she 'sang' the national anthem that time.

I never really thought Roseanne had all that much talent and am led to believe that Goodman was what kept the show going for so many years. he was. he tried his best to keep the show from becoming what it was but that is a hard task when surrounded by pro white trash. in the beginning the show was great, a simple family, kind of hard on their luck but keeping it together using humor and realism [but honey you just fixed dinner THREE YEARS AGO!] but after a few years ago the show turned down that 'married with children' path of gearing it towards raunchy/trash comedy. there is struggling but wanting to work and there is people proud to be poor trash. |
