production team, other cast members, with no job......because of her gigantic racist lying mouth. she still has a ton of cash coming in, so I guess she'll go on the circuit in Trump country and do stand up. and Roseanne said she was 'joking'.....you called a woman an ape and later after you got BLASTED!!!! then you were joking. 

and to ABC......you knew what she was when she dressed up like Hitler. but ratings wee great so you ignored that. did ratings start to fall?

Channing Dungey, the president of ABC Entertainment likely had much to do with the decision to give the show the ax as well.

"Roseanne's Family." "The Conner Family."  Where's Sandy Duncan when you need her to keep the show going?  I suppose Roseanne owns too much of the show, though... 

I also have a feeling much of he cast would probably never do it without her (regardless if they agree with her comments or not). 

I can only imagine how Sara Gilbert, etc. will feel towards her now.  I'm guessing there won't be many cast reunion specials with them for Good Morning America, Entertainment Weekly magazine, etc. anytime in the next decade now.

Sara, most of all, is probably the angriest. This reboot was her baby, and she worked hard to get Roseanne to tone it down to not deter from the show.

And I have to say you and everyone else who didn't give Roseanne a second chance were right.

They've known her personally for 30 years.  I'm not sure what's different now. I think Sara could have carried this show without Roseanne. My guess is she's choosing not to do that.

Suffice it to say...Roseanne has, a history.

Comedians can't say anything about anyone anymore. Freedom Of Speech or not. I didn't like the reboot, it seemed off to me.
